ABSTRACT:
A plunger rod assembly for use with a syringe barrel comprises a plunger rod and a flexible thermoplastic stopper. A plunger rod includes an elongate shaft portion defining a longitudinal axis and having a tapered tip portion at the distal end thereof. The tapered tip portion includes a front portion at the distal end thereof and a circular tapered plunger rod wall connected to the front portion and having a convexly shaped surface. A flexible cup-shaped thermoplastic stopper includes an annular side wall and a continuous front wall connected to the side wall. An exterior surface of the side wall is larger in diameter than the syringe barrel inside diameter. The stopper interior includes an inside surface of the front wall and a tapered annular inside wall connected to the annular side wall and to the inside surface. The tapered annular inside wall and the inside surface define a cavity which has the tapered tip portion received therein. The tapered annular inside wall is inclined in the same direction as the tapered plunger rod wall and adjacent thereto. Cooperating structure for maintaining the positional relationship of the stopper and the plunger rod is also provided.
