Abstract

A safety syringe with a needle sleeve lock is provided. The needle sleeve lock is put around a cap of the syringe with radially outward projected second stoppers at rear end of the cap located between a shoulder portion and two radially inward projected first stoppers inside the needle sleeve lock, such that the cap, a hub tightly fitted in the cap, and the needle sleeve lock together form a needle sleeve lock assembly, which allows the hub to temporarily locate closely before a neck portion of a barrel of the syringe, so that the syringe may be sterilized under high temperature without stress deformation and thermal deformation. When the cap is turned to separate the second stoppers on the cap from the first shoulder portion and the first stoppers of the needle sleeve lock and then depressed, the hub and a cannula held thereto are caused to move backward and be stably retained to the neck portion of the barrel in an airtight relation. And when the cap is pulled forward again, it brings the needle sleeve lock to together separate from the hub to expose the cannula for injection.
