ABSTRACT:
An improvement on a syringe needle protection device and system for practicing the same is shown utilizing a hollow needle cover, or simply cover, which may slide over or within a syringe cylinder. The invention envisions having a needle cap which protects a needle. The hollow needle cover has a reduced end capable of receiving and holding or ejecting the needle cap. The device may also include a means for releasable locking onto the needle cap so that the needle cap locks onto the needle cover. When the cap is being replaced the needle cap can be snapped onto the needle cover until the cap is released when the cap is fixed back in place over the needle. Typically the cap will snap into place onto the needle holder. A locking mechanisms is envisioned which locks the needle cap to the needle cover. This mechanism can prevent the needle cap from being removed from the needle cover until the needle cover is fully extended over the needle. The cover allows the needle holder to be unscrewed or broken off when the user is finished with the needle.
