Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 191 words
A holder for securing a syringe to a needle assembly, comprising a body for receiving said syringe having frontal and distal ends, said frontal end having means for securing an ear portion of said syringe to prevent axial movement between said syringe and said body, said distal end having an opening with a luer lok mechanism through which the forward portion of said syringe is disposed whereby the luer lock secures the forward portion of the syringe; wherein the body comprises an elongate semicircular channel adapted to receive a syringe, a circular distal end, and a frontal member attached to the frontal end of the semicircular channel; said circular distal end forming a closed barrel along the distal end of the body; said frontal member including a pair of flanges, said flanges spaced slightly away from the end of the semicircular channel and supported by a pair of supports with a recess defined between the flanges and channel by the width of the support, said recess accepting a flange of the syringe, and both flange and support defining a U-shaped area through which a head of said syringe can be placed.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 191 words
A holder for securing a syringe to a needle assembly, comprising a body for receiving said syringe having frontal and distal ends, said frontal end having means for securing an ear portion of said syringe to prevent axial movement between said syringe and said body, said distal end having an opening with a luer lok mechanism through which the forward portion of said syringe is disposed whereby the luer lock secures the forward portion of the syringe; wherein the body comprises an elongate semicircular channel adapted to receive a syringe, a circular distal end, and a frontal member attached to the frontal end of the semicircular channel; said circular distal end forming a closed barrel along the distal end of the body; said frontal member including a pair of flanges, said flanges spaced slightly away from the end of the semicircular channel and supported by a pair of supports with a recess defined between the flanges and channel by the width of the support, said recess accepting a flange of the syringe, and both flange and support defining a U-shaped area through which a head of said syringe can be placed.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 47 words
The holder of claim 1 wherein the semicircular channel has two opposite lugs with the bottom of each lug attached to the channel, said lugs being attached at a point near the frontal end of the channel and adapted to further secure the syringe to the holder.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 15 words
The holder of claim 1, wherein the circular distal end contains a threaded locking mechanism.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 17 words
The holder of claim 3 wherein the threaded locking mechanism is adapted to receive a needle assembly.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 198 words
In combination, a syringe and a holder for connecting the syringe with a needle assembly, comprising a body for receiving said syringe and having frontal and distal ends, said frontal end having means for securing an ear portion of said syringe to prevent axial movement between said syringe and said body, said distal end having an opening with a luer lok mechanism through which the forward portion of said syringe is disposed whereby the luer lok secures the forward portion of the syringe; wherein the holder body comprises an elongate semicircular channel adapted to receive a syringe, a circular distal end, and a frontal member attached to the frontal end of the semicircular channel; said circular distal end forming a closed barrel along the distal end of the body; said frontal member including a pair of flanges, said flanges spaced slightly away from the end of the semicircular channel and supported by a pair of supports, with a recess defined between the flanges and channel by the width of the supprts, said recess accepting a flange of the syringe, and both flange and support defining a U-shaped area through which a head of said syringe can be placed.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 198 words
In combination, a syringe and a holder for connecting the syringe with a needle assembly, comprising a body for receiving said syringe and having frontal and distal ends, said frontal end having means for securing an ear portion of said syringe to prevent axial movement between said syringe and said body, said distal end having an opening with a luer lok mechanism through which the forward portion of said syringe is disposed whereby the luer lok secures the forward portion of the syringe; wherein the holder body comprises an elongate semicircular channel adapted to receive a syringe, a circular distal end, and a frontal member attached to the frontal end of the semicircular channel; said circular distal end forming a closed barrel along the distal end of the body; said frontal member including a pair of flanges, said flanges spaced slightly away from the end of the semicircular channel and supported by a pair of supports, with a recess defined between the flanges and channel by the width of the supprts, said recess accepting a flange of the syringe, and both flange and support defining a U-shaped area through which a head of said syringe can be placed.
Claim 8
