An injector system includes an injector and a syringe. The injector
includes a housing having a front wall, a drive member moveable through
the front wall of the housing, and a pressure jacket assembly for
operably associating the syringe with the housing. The pressure jacket
assembly includes a rearward end mounted on the front wall of the housing
and a forward open end for receiving the syringe therethrough. The
syringe includes a body having a main section, a conical section in fluid
communication with the main section and a fluid discharge section in
fluid communication with the conical section. The syringe further
includes a plunger movably disposed in the body. The plunger includes one
or more hook members extending rearward from the plunger for connecting
the plunger to the drive member of the injector. The syringe also
includes a protrusion for facilitating handling of the syringe.
Preferably, the protrusion is operably associated with and extends
forwardly from the conical section of the body.
