Abstract

A disposable syringe with an automatically retractable hypodermic needle of the type consisting of an injector plunger, a container cylinder with needle-carrier head and a needle with connection ferrule. The ferrule is housed in an inner hollow of the head of the cylinder, wherein the tube of the needle has passing axially though it a guiding channel to the outside, the hollow having a plurality of elastic retention tabs and the rear face of the needle-carrier head of the cylinder being in contact with an elastomeric washer interposed in an annular manner between it and the plunger which is defined by a cover whose attack front part has a slightly conical circular crown coinciding with said elastomeric washer and which is equipped centrally with a frustoconical core coinciding in a closely fitting manner with the opening of the ferrule of the needle. The cover also has a perimeter groove on its surrounding face which can be locked in terms of position in a plurality of domed projections of the inner wall of the tube which contains it, thereby forming the shaft of the plunger, the head of the cover and the base of said shaft being joined together by a tensioned elastic means and comprising, in the rear zone of their surrounding wall, a plurality of grooves in the rear zone which link its inside to the outside space.
