A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11980729B2) discloses a fluid displacement and pressurization device designed to provide precise control over fluid movement. The device comprises a syringe body, a plunger with a thread and groove, a piston in sealed contact with the syringe body, a control button, a threaded cylinder, and a pair of control blades that engage or disengage the plunger thread with the threaded cylinder thread. When engaged, the plunger can be rotated for micro-movements, while disengagement allows for macro-movements of the plunger relative to the syringe body. The design also includes features like a handle, spring, and specific blade configurations to facilitate controlled fluid displacement.

Furthermore, the patent details additional features such as a shaft divisible into two zones, a thrust control blade for disengagement, and a guide groove with thrust blade control cams. These elements work together to enable precise control over the movement of the plunger within the syringe body. The device's innovative design allows for efficient fluid displacement and pressurization, making it a valuable tool in various applications where accurate fluid handling is essential. The patent's detailed description of the device's components and their interactions provides a comprehensive understanding of its functionality and potential benefits in different fields requiring controlled fluid movement.
