A syringe, comprising:
- a bent cylindrical body bent about a radius, the bent cylindrical body having a proximal open end and a distal conical end, the conical end comprising at least one discharge outlet;
- and
- a plunger having a curvature substantially similar to the curvature of the bent cylindrical body configured and arranged to be received by the proximal open end of the bent cylindrical body and movably disposed within at least a portion of the bent cylindrical body.
A device comprising:
- a syringe, comprising:
- a bent cylindrical body bent about a radius and having a proximal open end and a distal conical end, the conical end comprising at least one discharge outlet;
- a plunger having curvature substantially similar to the curvature of the bent cylindrical body and being configured and arranged to be received by the proximal open end of the bent cylindrical body and movably disposed within at least a portion of the bent cylindrical body;
- and
- a hinge operably connected to the bent cylindrical body and the plunger, the hinge being disposed at an intersection of the radius of the bent cylindrical body and a radius of the plunger;
- a spindle configured and designed to be received by the hinge and operably connected to one of the bent cylindrical body or the plunger;
- and
- a drive motor operably connected to the spindle and being capable of providing rotational force to the spindle.
