The present invention concerns a prefilled injection device having a container and a dose setting mechanism encapsulated inside a housing. The injection device incorporates an axial variable connection such that a distance between a distal end of a piston rod and a plunger is minimized preferably to zero.

Injection device for performing medical injections

The invention relates to a prefilled injection pen for apportioning multiple set doses of a liquid drug. The injection pen comprises a housing assembly with a removable cap rotatable coupled to the housing assembly such that the user has to rotate the removable cap upon mounting and dismounting the removable cap. Rotation of the removable cap initiates a process in which the proximal end of a needle cannula is first inserted into a cartridge permanently embedded in the housing assembly and thereafter moves the cartridge proximally to thereby pump a predetermined amount of the preservative containing liquid drug from the cartridge and into a cleaning chamber carried by an axially movable shield. The needle cannula is mounted in a needle hub which is arranged to follow rotation of the removable cap and guided helically in relation to the housing assembly such that the needle hub is moved proximally upon rotation of the removable cap. Further, the axially movable shield is operated by the needle hub to follow proximal movement of the needle hub such that the distal tip of the needle cannula is maintained inside the cleaning chamber upon axil movement of the needle hub and the needle cannula.

Medical injection device with needle cleaning

An injection device with a dose delivering mechanism being adapted to provide a non-visual, e.g. audible and/or tactile, feedback signal when a set dose has been at least substantially injected. A first and a second part of the injection device are adapted to perform a relative rotational movement with respect to each other. The relative rotational movement causes at least two parts of the injection device to abut or engage, and this abutment or engagement causes the non-visual feedback signal to be generated. A very distinct and precise feedback is provided as compared to prior art axial solutions because the generation of the feedback signal is initiated by the relative rotational movement. Feedback signal may be generated by a change in a rotational velocity of at least one part, e.g. by changing the pitch of a threaded portion or by engaging a non-rotating part and a rotating part, thereby causing the non-rotating part to start rotating. May alternatively be generated by building up and releasing a tension. The injection device is suitable for injecting insulin.

Injection device with an end of dose feedback mechanism

An electronically controlled add-on device with a switch arrangement comprises a powered switch which is open during most of its lifetime, i.e. during both storage and operational use. More specifically, in one embodiment the add-on device comprises a secondary switch so that there are an open and a closed switch. The logics of the electronic circuitry control the circuitry so that the closed switch will be un-powered and the open switch will be powered. When the switch is mechanically changed, both switches are changed by the controller so that the closed switch will be un-powered and the open switch will be powered.

Power efficient add-on device

A drug delivery device is provided comprising a housing having an exterior surface, a drug-filled reservoir with an outlet, drug expelling means, and a flexible sheet. On the flexible sheet is formed or mounted input means adapted to be actuated corresponding to an event indicative of drug being expelled, a display adapted to display a time parameter, a processor, and an energy source. The processor is adapted to, based on input from the detection means, control the display to display a time parameter related to the time the event was detected, and the flexible sheet is attached at least in part to the outer surface of the housing.

Drug delivery device with time indicator feature

The invention concerns an injection device for apportioning set doses of a drug from a reservoir to a subject. The injection device comprises a housing having an interior thread formed as an outwardly pointing thread carried on an upstanding tower centrally located in the injection device. The outwardly pointing thread forms a first thread connection with an interior thread of a rotatable scale drum. The injection device further comprises a driver for moving a piston rod forward when moved axially. The driver operates the piston rod through a second thread connection having a pitch different than the first thread connection.

Injection device

The present invention relates to medicament injection devices (). A cartridge () with a septum and a needle unit () having front and rear needles () are configured for relative movement from a state where the septum is sealed to a state where the septum is pierced by the rear needle (). The injection device () may include a needle shield () and be configured for piercing the septum by the rear needle () when the front needle () is operated relative to the needle shield (). The injection device () may also include a damping mechanism configured for limiting the speed of movement of the cartridge relative to the needle unit. The injection device () may also include an indicator generating a signal when a piston driver has travelled the complete stroke length, wherein the indicator has a deflection element that is deflected prior to or during movement of the cartridge relative to the housing.

Medical injection device

The present invention relates to injection devices for injecting a dose of a medicament. The injection device () incorporates a housing (), a needle assembly () and a cover (). The needle assembly () comprises an injection needle () accommodated in a needle container () having an opening which in a storage state of the injection device () is sealed by a film seal (). The cover may include sections () arranged movable relative to the housing (). The injection device () is so configured that upon movement of the cover sections () relative to the housing () the film seal () is changed from a sealing state to an unsealing state for shifting the injection device () into a ready-to-administer state.

The present invention relates to a dial-down mechanism for an injection device comprising a torsion spring for assisting injection of a dose of medicament from the injection device, the dial-down mechanism comprising dial-up cam arranged to receive and engage with a dial-up key, wherein the dial-up cam and the dial-up key are adapted to, upon rotation of a dose setting member in a first direction, cooperate to strain the torsion spring of the injection device, and a dial-down cam arranged to receive and engage with a dial-down key, wherein the dial-down cam and the dial-down key are adapted to, upon rotation of the dose setting member in a second direction, cooperate to release the torsion spring of the injection device, the second rotation direction being opposite to the first rotation direction.

Dial-down mechanism for wind-up pen

The present invention relates to injection devices for injecting a medicament from a cartridge () through a needle cannula (). The injection device () includes an actuator () for driving a piston driver () and includes an end of stroke limiter (). When the piston driver () is arrested by the end of stroke limiter () a shielding driver () is automatically triggered to actively shift the needle cannula () into a shielded state. The injection device may include a fluid dispensing interruption mechanism that automatically interrupts fluid flow when the piston driver has moved a predetermined stroke length. The injection device may also include a single pre-stressed spring acting exclusively in a linear compression mode or exclusively in a torsion mode and adapted to sequentially drive the device to enable fully automatic operation. The invention also relates to a method of sterilizing a needle cannula assembly.

The present invention relates to a dial-down mechanism for an injection device comprising a torsion spring for assisting injection of a dose of medicament from the injection device, the dial-down mechanism comprising a ratchet arm () engaging a ring element () and a reset element () which acts on a knob located on the periphery of the ratchet arm () to move the ratchet arm () out of engagement with the ring element () in order to allow the set dose to be reduced.

An injection device including a dose setting assembly, and an injection assembly, wherein operating the dose setting assembly to set a dose causes an engagement element to pass a tooth on a toothed rod in a combined translational and rotational movement.
