Abstract
Abstract A syringe for withdrawing fluids which consists of novel new one-handed operated syringe. Said one-handed or therapeutic syringe is described as a therapeutic syringe comprising a double compartmented housing, a piston disposed in one of said compartments, a piston rod connected to said piston controlling the movement of said piston in a barrel, vent means associated with said piston compartment, said other non-piston compartment being formed with needle hub for supporting a needle and having an opening in fluid communication with said piston compartment whereby when said piston is moved forward in said barrel in said piston compartment, air will be discharged therefrom while drawing liquid into said other compartment.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
132 words
A syringe comprising an elongated housing, said housing having an open end and a substantially closed second end, seal means closing said open end, partition means dividing the interior of the housing into at least two separate compartments, piston means disposed in one of said compartments, a piston rod extending from said piston means through said seal means outwardly of said compartment, an end wall closing the other compartment, at least one opening disposed in said end wall and terminating in a needle hub, and a further opening disposed in said partition means adjacent to said seal means whereby when the piston rod and piston means are pushed forwardly, air will be expelled from said piston compartment while creating a vacuum in said second chamber thereby causing fluid to be drawn therein.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
132 words
A syringe comprising an elongated housing, said housing having an open end and a substantially closed second end, seal means closing said open end, partition means dividing the interior of the housing into at least two separate compartments, piston means disposed in one of said compartments, a piston rod extending from said piston means through said seal means outwardly of said compartment, an end wall closing the other compartment, at least one opening disposed in said end wall and terminating in a needle hub, and a further opening disposed in said partition means adjacent to said seal means whereby when the piston rod and piston means are pushed forwardly, air will be expelled from said piston compartment while creating a vacuum in said second chamber thereby causing fluid to be drawn therein.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
13 words
The syringe of claim 1 wherein the housing is circular in cross section.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
The syringe of claim 2 wherein the piston is of semi-circular shape with the flat portion thereof engaging the partition means and the semi-circular portion engaging the circular configuration of the housing.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
13 words
The syringe of claim 3 wherein a needle is disposed in said hub.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
The syringe of claim 4 wherein handle means are disposed on a free end of said piston rod to facilitate movement of the same.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
13 words
The syringe of claim 5 wherein the housing is made from transparent material.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
89 words
A therapeutic syringe comprising a double compartmented housing, a piston disposed in one of said compartments, a piston rod connected to said piston controlling the movement of said piston in a barrel, vent means associated with said piston compartment, said other non-piston compartment being formed with needle hub for supporting a needle and having an opening in fluid communication with said piston compartment whereby when said piston is moved forward in said barrel in said piston compartment, air will be discharged therefrom while drawing liquid into said other compartment.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
89 words
A therapeutic syringe comprising a double compartmented housing, a piston disposed in one of said compartments, a piston rod connected to said piston controlling the movement of said piston in a barrel, vent means associated with said piston compartment, said other non-piston compartment being formed with needle hub for supporting a needle and having an opening in fluid communication with said piston compartment whereby when said piston is moved forward in said barrel in said piston compartment, air will be discharged therefrom while drawing liquid into said other compartment.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
20 words
The syringe of claim 7 wherein the movement of said piston controls the amount of vacuum in said other compartment.
