| 20080223209 | SYRINGE BARREL WIPER FOR LIQUID DISPENSING - A syringe for syringe pumps or like instruments is disclosed, having a modified plunger disposed with a barrel wiper for enhancing seal life of the syringe. The syringe comprises a cylindrical barrel that is slideably engaged to a plunger via a seal. The syringe barrel wiper provides for enhanced seal life by extended controlled lubrication to inhibit debris adherence and reduced seal friction by wiping the inside of the barrel to remove debris buildup and egress of debris. The wiper comprises a lubricant-permeated porous polymer material shaped as a cylindrical tubular member. | 09-18-2008 |
