ABSTRACT:
A self-destructing disposable safety syringe system, suitable for preventing needle sticks, preventing syringe reuse, and dispensing fluids from, drawing fluids into and mixing fluids within the system. According to one embodiment of the invention, the system includes a cylinder having a nozzle on one end to which a syringe needle can be affixed and an at least partially resilient piston comprising a body arranged so as to form a liquid tight movable partition (suitable for sliding against the inside wall of said cylinder under the control of a force applied through an actuator rod attached to the piston); a safety cap for preventing needle sticks from any needle attached to the nozzle, where the safety cap has flared construction to ease the placement of said cap over the needle and further including a cap lock for preventing the accidental removal of the safety cap means once in place; a syringe locking mechanism, located on the interior wall of the cylinder and extending therein, for preventing the retraction of the piston once the piston is depressed beyond a certain predefined limit; and a self-destruct mechanism which causes the syringe to self destruct if any reuse attempt is made after the piston has been depressed beyond the predefined limit.
