ABSTRACT:
A disposable safety guard for syringe needles and the like, the safety guard being adapted to receive the tip of a needle in a wedge or V-shaped interior chamber within a body member. The interior encloses a high frictional surfaced gripping device which receives the syringe needle in a lateral direction and prevents the needle from being removed therefrom, after it is secured therein. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the gripping mechanism within the interior of the body member comprises a rectangular shaped plastic component having two planar members joined by a thinned or living hinge permitting the component to be folded in half so that it may conform to the shape of the interior of the body member and close upon the needle. A layer of coarse grain sandpaper is placed on the folded interior surface of the gripper component in order to increase the frictional engagement with the syringe needle. The gripper component has a pair of lips designed to prevent the gripper from moving in a vertically upward direction within the interior. The gripper and sandpaper combination is also prevented from moving horizontally.
