Abstract

See full text

A syringe apparatus is described which has a novel adaptor assembly used for mounting a strain gauge to the syringe barrel. The adaptor assembly includes a housing in the form of a well formed on the distal end of the syringe barrel, and a housing insert which fits into the well and which caps the well when fully inserted. The housing insert in turn receives the mounting post of a strain gauge without having to thread the mounting post of the strain gauge into the housing insert. The housing insert properly aligns the mounting post of the strain gauge with an opening in the syringe barrel that provides fluid communication for purposes of reading pressures in the syringe barrel, and also properly rotationally orients the strain gauge so that the dial of the strain gauge is readable from the proximal end of the syringe apparatus.
