Abstract
A device for receiving a hypodermic syringe comprises an outer housing which has at one end a supporting element with an opening for an injection cannula and which has on its inner surface fixing means for engaging in counter-fixing means which are arranged on the outer surface of an injection container, and a displacement element which has at its end opposite the supporting element an actuating element on which at least one means is arranged which, during displacement, tensions a spring element with the build-up of a restoring force and, if a hypodermic syringe is received in the device, disengages the fixing means from the counter-fixing means. The spring element is disposed such that the outer housing and the injection container are moved relative to one another by the restoring force to such an extent until the injection cannula is fully received in the outer housing.
