Definitions
- THIS INVENTION relates to a new method of manufacturing
- the invention relates to needles
- needles are traditionally formed from more than one component. Typically, these needles comprise a steel cannula and a plastic or metal mounting hub rigidly secured thereto. An adhesive is often utilised as a third component to secure the cannula to the hub.
- the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing integral one-piece needles so that the difficulties associated with forming needles from more than one component are overcome, or at least partially alleviated.
- the present invention is characterised by the use of fluid- assisted injection moulding processes.
- Fluid-assisted injection moulding comprises a partial counter injection of a polymer melt to a mould cavity, followed by an injection of a fluid such as compressed gas into the k core of the polymer melt.
- a fluid such as compressed gas
- the gas normally takes the path of least resistance to catch up to the melt front where, if the mould is properly vented, the pressure is lowest. in principle, the gas penetrates and hollows out the network of gas channels, displacing molten polymer at the hot core to fill the entire cavity.
- the present invention provides a method for manufacturing an integral one-piece needle, the method being characterised by feeding a polymeric resin into a mould cavity and injecting a fluid under pressure into at least a portion of the cavity to eject therefrom the central region of the polymeric resin, creating an annulus of polymeric resin having an orifice therethrough, the annulus of polymeric resin forming the cannula of the needle, the mounting hub being provided by the remaining portion of the cavity.
- the fluid injection may be initiated either before or after the cavity is filled.
- the injection of the fluid before the cavity is filled results in the method of the invention operating similarly in principle to the fluid-assisted injection moulding techniques described above; namely, the fluid assists in pushing the melt through the cavity.
- the injection of the fluid after the cavity is filled requires the cavity to include an aperture therein (in the form of an exit channel) which allows the expulsion of the displaced molten central region of the polymer. While such an aperture is preferably also present where the fluid injection is initiated before the cavity is filled, it will be appreciated that this feature is not essential for the operation of the method in its broadest sense.
- the end of the cavity at the sharp end of the cannula
- the fluid may then be injected so as to clear all polymer material away from the surface of that plug, to allow the orifice to extend entirely along the length of the cannula.
- the moulding process of the present invention preferably utilises conventional moulding machinery, such as injection moulding machinery, to feed the polymeric resin into the mould.
- the mould preferably has a construction such as to allow the passing of fluid under high pressure separate to the means of injecting or feeding the polymeric resin into the mould.
- the fluid and polymer channel networks should be designed to guide the fluid and polymer penetration to the extremities of the moulds and cavities without introducing air-traps and gas permeation.
- the tool and part designs should deliver a balanced filling pattern to minimise uneven fluid and polymer penetration.
- the polymeric resin may be a thermoplastic (i.e. solidify by removal of heat) or thermosetting (i.e. solidify by the addition of heat) resin, provided that it is a property of the polymeric resin that as it solidifies in the mould cavity it does so first at or near the cavity surfaces. In this way, and in the preferred form of the invention, prior to the liquid centre of the polymeric moulding solidifying, it can be blown out of the cavity by fluid injected at high pressure. This forms an orifice from one end of the cannula to the other end.
- Suitable polymeric resins may therefore be any thermoplastic resin, such as polya ide or polyester, and some thermosetting resins, such as phenolic or epoxy resins. Since most needles need high strength and stiffness, the polymeric resin may be filled with structurally reinforcing fibres such as carbon or glass fibres.
- the polymeric resin may be selected from the group comprising polyethermide, polycarbonate, glass or carbon filled polyester or polyamide and liquid crystal polymers.
- the fluid that is passed into the moulding to form the orifice is preferably a gas such as air or nitrogen.
- the fluid may be some other gas that does not react with or contaminate the polymeric resin, that can be injected at such a pressure as to blow out the liquid centre of the moulding to form an orifice.
- the gas may or may not be heated depending on the polymeric resin.
- a liquid may be used.
- the fluid may be injected from either end of the cavity, or may be injected via an intermediate polymer feed channel.
- the present invention relates not only to the method of manufacturing a one-piece integral needle, but also to the moulds for use with the method, and the one-piece integral needles produced by the method. It will also be appreciated that it. has been necessary to refer to the one-piece integral needle as having two portions - namely, a cannula and a mounting hub. These are terms that are perhaps more easily assignable to the conventional multi-piece needles that have a metal cannula and a plastic mounting hub.
- a “cannula” is intended to refer to that portion of the one-piece integral needle that is the tube, at least a part of which will be subcutaneously inserted into a person or animal when used for the injection or removal of fluids therefrom, while reference to a “mounting hub” is that part of the one-piece needle that is immediately adjacent the cannula and is adapted so as to be receivable by a syringe or the like in a fluid-tight engagement.
- Figure 1 is a cross-section through a mould cavity for use with the present invention
- FIGS 2 to 5 are the same cross-section as illustrated in Figure 1, but at various stages of the method of the invention
- Figure 6 plots steady state thickness versus needle outer diameter
- Figure 7 plots injection pressure versus needle outer diameter.
- a mould 10 is provided in two halves (12 and 14) and includes therewithin a cavity 16.
- the cavity 16 is generally in two portions - being a first portion 18 that provides the cannula and a second portion 20 that provides the mounting hub.
- the mould 10 also includes a channel 22 having an inlet 24 and an outlet 26.
- the outlet 26 is located centrally of the inwardly tapered portion 28 of the second portion 20 of the cavity 16.
- An exit channel 28 emerges at the other end of the cavity 16 so that an excess of liquid polymeric resin can be expelled from the first portion 18 of the cavity 16 when the fluid is injected, to form an orifice in the moulding in that first portion.
- a mechanical valve (not shown) may be used to open and shut the channel 22 so that polymeric resin does not enter the channel 22.
- Polymeric resin may be fed into the cavity 16 along runner 30 made on the split line 32 between the two halves (12 and 14) of the mould 10.
- the process cycle starts with the two mould halves (12 and 14) being clamped together with force, and having the cavity 16 and all of the channels empty.
- the two halves (12 and 14) of the mould 10 mate precisely along the split line 32 so that no liquid polymeric resin can escape from the cavity 16.
- the mechanical valve (not shown) is shut to stop polymeric resin entering channel 22.
- liquid polymeric resin 34 is then injected along the runner 30 into the cavity 16 under pressure from a moulding machine (not shown).
- a solidified layer 36 of polymeric resin 34 forms at the cavity surface 38 during the filling of the cavity 16.
- the flow of polymeric resin 34 is then stopped before the entire cavity 16 is filled, and the mechanical valve in channel 22 is opened such that fluid 37 is injected into the first portion 18 of the cavity 16 which pushes liquid polymeric resin 34 further into the cavity 16.
- the fluid 37 is preferably a gas such as nitrogen.
- the flow of a polymer in needles 40mm long and of various diameters was investigated.
- the moulding conditions used were melt temperature 300°C, mould temperature 20°C and a flow rate to fill the cannula portion of the cavity in 0.1 seconds.
- the operating conditions will require variation.
- the flow rate will generally always be such as to fill the cannula in fractions of seconds (to ensure high shear rates between the resin and wall of the mould) the value will require variation as necessary.
- Figure 6 shows a plot of these steady state thicknesses versus needle outer diameter. This figure illustrates that for small outer diameters the frozen layer fraction is large (0.05mm thick for 0.5mm OD), whereas for large diameters the fraction is small (0.06mm thick for 2.0mm OD) . It should be noted that a number of moulding parameters can be altered to set and control the frozen layer thickness, including flow-rate, mould temperature, and gas delay time (time before the gas purges molten polymer from inside the frozen layer).
- the method of the invention tends to a steady state and is therefore relatively easy to control. Also, the internal diameters are able to be readily set and frozen layers as thin as 0.05mm can be produced.
- the cannula is formed from a skin of polymer solidified under high flow-rates, the molecular chains being highly aligned longitudinally along the length of the cannula.
- the cannula already is increased in stiffness over the normal properties of the polymer due to the molecular orientation.
- an alternative embodiment of needle produced by this invention is a needle having either a straight or curved taper along its full length, or along only a portion of its length.
- This invention thus allows the production of needles in one-piece as a single component and as a single manufacturing process.
- secondary processes such as gluing and grinding are required and more than one component must be manufactured to form the needle.
- the difficulties and expenses in producing needles are reduced through a reduction in the number of components in the needle and the number of manufacturing processes required to make the needle.
- needles produced by this invention may also have many new details incorporated into the one-piece moulding. For instance, threads or other fittings for connection to syringes or other dispensing or collecting devices can be incorporated into the one-piece moulding. Other features such as special profiled points, chambers to collect or distribute material from the needle can be incorporated into the one-piece moulding.
- the invention allows the production of one-piece needles with additional features incorporated into the design without additional processes or components thus broadening the scope of product design and reducing the expenses and difficulties in manufacturing needles with additional design features.
