ABSTRACT:
A hypodermic appliance for facilitating a one-handed uncapping and recapping of hypodermic apparatus and the like. An appliance separate from the hypodermic apparatus includes an elongated tapered opening in a plate through which a needle-covering sheath of a hypodermic apparatus is placed. The tip of the sheath abuts a tip holder which provides a fulcrum point for rocking the hypodermic apparatus from the wider portion of the opening to the narrower portion of the opening and vice-versa. The sides of the sheath are gripped in the narrower portion of the opening, whereupon the needle may be withdrawn from the sheath leaving the sheath lodged in the appliance. After using the hypodermic apparatus, the needle is reinserted by the use of only one hand into the sheath, and then the capped hypodermic apparatus is rocked to the wider portion of the opening and withdrawn from the appliance.
