ABSTRACT:
A hypodermic needle capping device (10) that attaches to a hypodermic syringe (100). The device (10) consists of two separate elements: the first consists of a collar (12) having integrally attached a snap-lock structure (24) that includes a locking barb (40) and slide member retaining structure (42). The second consists of a slide member (54) which includes a barb receiving and locking slot (58) and a needle point barrier (76). The collar (12) is frictionally inserted over the upper edge (108) of the syringe (100). The slide member (54) is slidably attached to the slide member retaining structure (42) and is designed to be placed in two positions. When the syringe (100) is to be used, the slide member (54) is positioned along the side of the syringe (100). After the syringe has been used, but prior to being discarded, the slide member (54) is single-handedly slid upward until the locking barb (40) is inserted into the slot (58) at which time the slide member (54) is positioned with the syringe needle (104) point adjacent the needle point barrier (76).
