A drive mechanism for a delivery device is presented containing, a rotator having an outer surface and an inner surface, the rotator configured to rotate from a first position to a second position. A needle cover having an inner surface that engages the outer surface of the rotator. A rotatable plunger rod having an outer surface configured to engage the inner surface of the rotator. When the rotator rotates from the first position to the second position, the rotatable plunger rod is rotated by the rotator and a plunger rod spring is released from a pre-tensioned state to exert a force on the rotatable plunger rod.

Delivery device

A needle shield remover is presented having a generally tubular body with a longitudinal extension and a grip element composed of a braided sleeve arranged to the tubular body, where the braided sleeve has an opening of such a diameter that a needle shield may be introduced, where the diameter narrows such that a friction fit is created between the braided sleeve and the needle shield when said needle shield is pulled for removing the needle shield.

Needle shield remover

A needle shield remover is presented having a generally tubular body with a longitudinal extension and a number of grip elements arranged at a distal area of the body, where the grip elements extend radially inwards from a circumference of the body. At least one longitudinally extending cut-out in the body and adjacent to the grip elements engage an outer surface of a needle shield when the needle shield remover is pushed onto the needle shield, where the at least one cut-out enables a generally radial outwardly bias of the grip elements during the pushing action to facilitate mounting of the needle shield remover on the needle shield.

A drive mechanism for a delivery device comprising a rotator comprising an outer surface and an inner surface, the rotator configured to rotate from a first position to a second position; and a needle cover comprising an inner surface that engages the outer surface of the rotator. An end of injection indication device is positioned at least partially within a plunger rod spring, the end of injection indication device providing a signal to a user of the drive mechanism that an injection has been completed.
