An adapter for use with an appliance for administering an injectable product, the adapter serving to create a product connection between a catheter and a product container that can be inserted into the appliance, and including a thread for screwing the adapter to the appliance, a stop for fixing the container in the longitudinal direction of the thread, an attachment piece to which the catheter may be connected, and a product channel that extends through the attachment piece and the thread.

Adapter for an injection appliance

The invention relates to a safety device for an injection syringe, the injection syringe including a body having an injection needle fitted thereon, the device including a plunger rod including a distal plunger part slidably movable in the body of the syringe, and a proximal triggering part, configured to trigger the displacement of a protection sheath, from an injection position, wherein the needle is uncovered, towards a safety position, wherein the needle is covered by the sheath. The proximal triggering part is able to move relative to the distal plunger part once the distal plunger part is at the distal end of its stroke, to trigger the displacement of the protection sheath.

Safety device for an injection syringe

A device for administering an injectable substance, the device including a housing, a translation member moveable in a translation direction, a rotation member rotatably moveable about a rotation axis and coupled to the translation member to support the translation member counter to the translation direction, a rotary bearing including a bearing body bearing the rotation member rotatably about the rotation axis, the rotary bearing having support surfaces for supporting the rotation member axially on the bearing body, and a device for reducing play whereby at least two support surfaces are brought into contact with a pressing force, thereby reducing an axial play of the rotary bearing.

Device for metered administration of a liquid product

A device for metered administration of a liquid product including a container for the product, a delivery mechanism which acts on the product located in the container and delivers product from the container by means of an axial output movement in a delivery direction, and an inherently axially rigid housing support structure which supports the container in and counter to the delivery direction, wherein the housing support structure has, over the axial length of the container, an axial thermal expansion coefficient which, within a temperature range in which the device is used, corresponds at least substantially to the axial thermal expansion coefficient of the container.

A compact and one time use, self-administration device () for administering medication is disclosed. The device includes a housing () having a start button (), a status indicator (), a window (), and a surface removably attachable to a user. The device () has a cartridge holder () providing in an aseptic environment a cartridge () containing the medication. The cartridge () is viewable through the cartridge holder () and the window (). An included drive unit () provides a movable plunger () that breaks through a sterile barrier () of the cartridge holder () to dispense the medication from the cartridge () to an hollow needle () for administering the medication into the user. The device () provides means () for extending and retracting the hollow needle () and an electronic control unit () which controls the drive unit (), the extending and retracting means (), and interfaces with the start button (), the status indicator (), and the body sensor () to automatically administer the medication.

Delivery device for use with a therapeutic drug

A drive arrangement for an injection device, including a first stage, a second stage and a drive for shifting the stages, wherein the drive acts on one of the stages to shift said one of the stages first and wherein the stage which is first shifted encounters a higher resistance than does the other stage, such that the other stage is shifted.

Drive device for a piston in a container containing an injectable product

A device for dispensing a substance, including a receptacle for the product, a piston plug axially moveable in the receptacle, an output member associated with the device for causing the piston plug to move axially, and a connecting mechanism for detachably connecting the output member to the piston plug by axially displacement of the output member and the piston plug relative to each other, wherein, after being connected, the output member and piston plug may be separated by relative twisting.

Device for administering a liquid product

A device for administering doses of a substance, the device including a housing forming one of a product reservoir or a receiving seat for a product reservoir, a force sensor, a delivery mechanism which executes an axial output movement in a delivery direction to deliver a dose from the product reservoir, and which is supported via the sensor on the housing counter to the delivery direction, and a contact element on which the sensor is axially supported, at least one of the contact element and sensor forming a device for reducing play which, in an adjustment engagement with at least one of the housing or the delivery mechanism, is displaced into an adjustment position and axially secured in the adjustment position in such a way that axial play between the delivery mechanism and the housing is reduced.

A device for the metered administration of a fluid drug. The device has a container having a piston for administering the fluid drug through an outlet of the container, a catheter connected to the outlet of the container, the catheter having a front end facing away from the outlet and being connected to an injection needle, and a valve positioned between the outlet and the injection needle in a flow cross section of the fluid drug, the valve having an inlet end adjacent the outlet and an outlet end adjacent the injection needle, wherein the valve permits flow of the fluid drug through the valve from the outlet to the injection needle when a fluid pressure exerted on the inlet end of the valve exceeds a pressure on the inlet end caused by the dead weight of the fluid drug.

Device for the metered administration of a fluid drug

An apparatus for administering a substance, including a housing, a piston, a container and a propelling device, the propelling device including a base element, a first shifting stage shiftable relative to the base element, and a second shifting stage shiftable relative to the base element and to the first shifting stage and slaving the first shifting stage, wherein the propelling device, container and piston are operably coupled to the housing and the first shifting stage is in contact with the piston.
