In one aspect the present disclosure relates to a sensor for measuring at least one physical or chemical parameter of a cartridge or syringe filled with a liquid substance. In further aspects the disclosure relates to a cartridge equipped with such a sensor as well as to a drug delivery device equipped with such a cartridge, wherein the sensor comprises: a planar flexible foil arrangeable to an outer circumference of a barrel of the cartridge or syringe, at least a first and a second measuring electrode arranged on said foil, and at least a first and a second contact electrode arranged on said foil, wherein the first contact electrode is connected to the first measuring electrode and wherein the second contact electrode is connected to the second measuring electrode.

Sensor, cartridge and drug delivery device

In one aspect the present disclosure relates to a sensor for measuring at least one physical or chemical parameter of a cartridge or syringe filled with a liquid substance. In further aspects the disclosure relates to a cartridge equipped with such a sensor as well as to a drug delivery device equipped with such a cartridge, wherein the sensor comprises:

In one aspect the present disclosure relates to a sensor for measuring at least one physical or chemical parameter of a cartridge filled with a liquid substance. In a further aspect the disclosure relates to a drug delivery device equipped with such a sensor, wherein the sensor includes a planar flexible foil having a first section and having a second section separated from the first section, at least one measurement electrode located on the flexible foil, wherein the flexible foil is wrappable into a wrapped configuration in which the foil forms at least a first wrap with an inner diameter that is equal to or larger than an outer diameter of the cartridge, wherein in the wrapped configuration the first section and the second section at least partially overlap, at least one fastener located in one of the first and second section and configured to attach to the other one of the first and second sections for keeping the flexible foil in the wrapped configuration.

Sensor for a drug delivery device

An injector device for delivering a liquid medicament comprises an injector body having a proximal end and a distal end. The injector device further includes a syringe slidably received in the injector body and moveable from a first position to a second position towards the distal end of the body. Additionally, the injector device comprises a needle holder between the syringe and the distal end of the body, and a needle held in the needle holder. The needle has a distal end extending toward an opening in the distal end of the body, and a proximal end extending toward the syringe. The injector device also comprises a syringe biasing member within the body configured to bias the syringe into the second position. The syringe is spaced from the needle in the first position and is in engagement with the proximal end of the needle in the second position.

Medicament injector device

In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a sensor for measuring at least one physical or chemical parameter of a cartridge or syringe filled with a liquid substance. In further aspects the disclosure relates to a cartridge equipped with such a sensor and a drug delivery device equipped with such a cartridge. The sensor comprises a planar flexible foil arrangeable to an outer circumference of a barrel of the cartridge or syringe. The sensor also includes at least a first and a second measuring electrode is arranged on the foil and at least a first and a second contact electrode is arranged on the foil. The sensor further comprises, processor connected to the first and to the second measurement electrodes and a transceiver arranged on the foil. The transceiver is also and connected to the processor. Additionally, the first contact electrode and the second contact electrode are connected to the processor.

The present disclosure is directed to a window element and a drug delivery device, like a pen-type injector, that provides for administration by injection of medicinal products from a multidose cartridge. The drug delivery device may comprise a housing, a dose setting member, a dial, a drive member, a clutch and/or a clicker. The window element comprises a first member with a window and being made from a rigid material, a second member and a third member, each made from an elastically deformable material and being attached to the first member.

Window element and drug delivery device

An assembly for a drug delivery device, comprising: a housing having a distal end and a proximal end, a piston rod, a drive member, the drive member being moveable in a proximal direction with respect to the housing and with respect to the piston rod for setting a dose of a drug, at least one stop member which is provided on one of the piston rod and the drive member and which is radially moveable with respect to the one of the piston rod and the drive member on which it is provided, and at least one interaction member which is provided on the other one of the piston rod and the drive member. Furthermore, a piston rod for a drug delivery device is provided.
