摘要

FIELD: medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: device has casing with unit axially movably mounted inside the casing. The operating unit has spring with lock (for instance, as trigger mechanism) acting on the casing on one end face and injection needle on the other end face. The casing has hingedly mounted ring in its lower part with three equalizers movably spaced over circle equidistantly with respect to each other having the form of limbs (made, for instance, from steel wire) protruding in the flight direction and brought through bushings hingedly attached to the ring ending in ball support member. Three fastening members are rigidly fixed in the lower part of the ring. The fastening members are made as springy lugs curved as arcs with convex portion outside and engageable with animal body. Toothed racks are attached to the fixing members to enable their engagement with locking member to take place. The device is also provided with launching transportation system members and flaps to maintain orientation control in flight. EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of injecting drugs into animal body. 1 dwg
