Actuator () for a medical device (), comprising an electromotor, a mechanical transmission, and magnetic coupling means arranged for transmitting a mechanical torque from the electromotor to the mechanical transmission when said electromotor is powered by an energy source, wherein said electromotor and a first part of the magnetic coupling means kinematically linked to the electromotor are arranged and hermetically sealed in a first casing module, and wherein said mechanical transmission and a second part of the coupling means kinematically linked to said mechanical transmission are arranged in a second casing module, said first and second casing modules comprising each complementary fastening means such that said first and second casing modules can be removably connected to each other in such a way that said first and second parts of the magnetic coupling means magnetically couple together upon connection of said first and second casing modules.

Medical-grade actuator having a modular structure and medical device comprising same

Artificial contractile structure () for a medical device, said artificial contractile structure () comprising: —an elongated member () adapted to contact a hollow body organ; —a closure () adapted to form the artificial contractile structure () into a closed loop around said hollow body organ; —a tension system () arranged to be connected to a control unit (), said tension system () being adapted to modify an internal diameter of said closed loop in response to a force applied by said control unit (). According to the invention, said elongated member () comprises a resilient core () and a biocompatible outer sheath (). Said tension system () furthermore comprises a first tensile element () attached to a first point () of said elongated member, and a second tensile element () attached to a second point () of said elongated member, each of said tensile elements () passing through an adaptor () situated between said first point () and said second point ().

Artificial contractile structure

The invention concerns a device for injecting a solid medicine () comprising a body () inside which moves along a general forward moving axis (X-X) a bevelled () needle () wherein is introduced the medicine (), said injection device () further comprising retaining means for preventing the medicine from falling () prior to being injected. The invention is characterized in that the medicine () is retained through an elastic deformation imparted to the needle () by the retaining means or by an elastic deformation of the retaining means themselves, or still by the combined flexibility of those two means.

Device for injecting a pharmaceutical active principle

The invention relates to a device which is used to inject an implant () into tissues (). The inventive device is characterized in that it comprises: a main hollow body (') having a hollow needle (&#x2032;) fixed thereto, into which the implant () is introduced; a secondary body (&#x2032;) which is disposed coaxially inside the main body (&#x2032;) and which surrounds the needle (&#x2032;); and a plunger rod (&#x2032;) which can slide coaxially inside the hollow needle (&#x2032;). The injection device (&#x2032;) is arranged such that: (i) when it is pressed against the tissues (), the main body (&#x2032;) slides along the length of the secondary body (&#x2032;) from a proximal position to a distal position such that the needle (&#x2032;) can penetrate the tissues (), whereby the movement of the main body (&#x2032;) is accompanied by the concomitant movement of the plunger rod (&#x2032;); and (ii) the plunger rod (&#x2032;) remains fixed and maintains the implant () at the required depth in the tissues () until the needle (&#x2032;) is removed therefrom when the main body (&#x2032;) is returned from the distal position to the proximal position.

Device for the injection of a solid or semi-solid implant

The invention concerns a device for back injecting an implant () into the skin () of a subject, said device () include a hollow main body (), to which a hollow needle () is fixed into which the implant () is introduced, a secondary body () coaxially arranged inside the main body () and surrounding the needle () and a piston rod () able to slide coaxially inside said hollow needle () and whose position relative to said needle () remains unchanged when the back injection device () is pressed against the subject's skin () to allow the needle () to penetrate said subject's skin and when the secondary body () retracts inside the main body (), the piston rod () penetrating the interior of the hollow needle () to hold the implant () at the required depth in the subject's skin () during withdrawal of the hollow needle () from the subject's skin (), during which the secondary body () exits the main body (), characterized in that it includes means for the elastic return of the secondary body () from the main body ().

Implant back-injecting device

A syringe for parenteral injection of a semi-solid formulation. The syringe includes a hollow element forming a reservoir for the semi-solid product to be injected between a plunger and a needle hub urged in contact with the reservoir end. The plunger comes into direct contact with the hub when the dose contained in the reservoir-forming element has been injected. The element forming a reservoir and the needle are maintained mutually interlocked at the hub through a mount or case receiving the element forming a reservoir.

Syringes for administering pasty or semi-solid formulations

The invention relates to a pre-filled injection device for injecting a liquid or semisolid composition into a subject, said injection device comprising:

Pre-filled safety injection device with integrated waste collector

The invention relates to a syringe-type device for freshly preparing a solution, suspension or dispersion, for example injectable formulations, preferably according to a method for reconstitution in a vacuum. The device is shown in FIG.. The invention also relates to a method for packing the fresh preparation of the solution, suspension or dispersion in a cylindrical reservoir that can be used in a single or multi-dose syringe provided for the same. This is a method for packing the preparation inside the cylindrical reservoir, which is closed on one side by an injection plunger whose movement in the reservoir is limited. This method is characterised in that the elements to be packed are introduced into the reservoir from the injection plunger side before the reservoir is closed by said plunger. Said reservoir is a tube or ampule which is closed on the other side in advance.
