Abstract
Afin de rendre possible de sceller de manière étanche un médicament dans un récipient de stockage et d'amener le récipient de stockage et un tube aiguille de communiquer avec l'un et l'autre sans le détachement d'une partie du bouchon (« coring ») et la déformation de la pointe d'aiguille du tube aiguille, une seringue pré-remplie (1) est dotée d'un cylindre (2), d'un tube aiguille (3), d'un raccord d'aiguille (4) et d'un élément couvercle (6). L'élément couvercle (6) est configuré pour réaliser une transition entre un premier état dans lequel un trou de décharge (12) d'une partie de décharge (12) est fermé, et un second état dans lequel un trou traversant (6a) pratiqué dans l'élément couvercle (6), le tube aiguille (3) et le trou de décharge (12) de la partie de décharge (12) communiquent pour former de cette façon un trajet d'écoulement à travers laquelle un médicament (M) passe, par la rotation du raccord d'aiguille (4).
