Abstract
An apparatus comprises a body having an opening at a first end of the body. A plunger control grip is slidably coupled to a portion of the body circumference and configured to couple to a syringe plunger. The apparatus further comprises a cover pivotably coupled to the first end of the body, wherein in an open position the cover exposes a cavity configured to receive a syringe. A locking mechanism is pivotally secured to the cover, wherein the locking mechanism is configured to prevent forward movement of the plunger control grip when in a locked position and to enable forward movement of the plunger control grip when in an unlocked position. The unlocked position is activated by external contact with the locking mechanism and forward movement is in the direction toward the first end of the body.

An apparatus comprising:
- a body having an opening at a first end of the body;
- a plunger control grip slidably coupled to a portion of the body circumference and configured to couple to a syringe plunger;
- a cover pivotably coupled to the first end of the body, wherein in an open position the cover exposes a cavity configured to receive a syringe;
- and
- a locking mechanism pivotally secured to the cover, wherein the locking mechanism is configured to prevent forward movement of the plunger control grip when in a locked position and to enable forward movement of the plunger control grip when in an unlocked position, wherein the unlocked position is activated by external contact with the locking mechanism and forward movement is in the direction toward the first end of the body.
An apparatus comprising:
- a tubular body having an opening at a first end of the tubular body;
- a plunger control grip slidably coupled to and encircling a portion of the tubular body circumference and configured to couple to a syringe plunger;
- a cover pivotably coupled to the tubular body, wherein in an open position the cover exposes a cavity configured to receive a syringe;
- and
- a locking mechanism pivotally secured to the cover, wherein the locking mechanism is configured to prevent forward movement of the plunger control grip when in a locked position and to enable forward movement of the plunger control grip when in an unlocked position, wherein forward movement is in the direction toward the first end of the tubular body.
An apparatus comprising:
- a body having an opening at a first end of the body and the body being configured to receive and substantially confine a syringe having a syringe plunger, a syringe body, and a needle;
- a plunger control grip slidably coupled to a portion of the body circumference and configured to couple to the syringe plunger and the syringe body;
- a cover pivotably coupled to the first end of the body, wherein in an open position the cover exposes a cavity configured to receive the syringe;
- and
- a locking mechanism pivotally secured to the cover, wherein the locking mechanism is configured to prevent forward movement of the plunger control grip when in a locked position and to enable forward movement of the plunger control grip when in an unlocked position, wherein forward movement of the plunger control grip is in the direction toward the first end of the body and engages the syringe body to move the needle a distance beyond the confines of the body.
