USPTO Abstract
After part of the cladding of a medicator main body has been abutted against a medication region, an injection syringe needle received in the main body is automatically projected for jabbing the needle into the medication region and on the other hand, the injection syringe needle jabbed into the medication region is automatically received back in the medicator main body, thereby effecting needle removal from the medication region. This reduces the pain which is felt by the patient during the jabbing and removal of the needle, and makes it possible to effect medication at a given speed during a medicinal liquid extraction and to effect easy and reliable mixing even when a two-liquid type or melt-mixing type medicinal liquid is used.
