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

A microdialysis probe including a probe body, a supply line and a discharge line for a perfusion solution and a dialysis membrane, wherein a probe needle for introduction into a tissue is provided by a generally elongate frame. The frame has at least one recess at least partially open for receiving at least a portion of the supply and discharge lines. The invention encompasses a method for making such a probe, wherein the method includes arranging a dialysis membrane on a shaping device, shaping the dialysis membrane in a selected shape, applying an adhesive agent to the dialysis membrane to keep the membrane in the selected shape, and separating the dialysis membrane and the shaping devices after the adhesive agent has been applied.

Microdialysis probe and method for the production thereof

A drive device for advancing an advancing element () relative to a housing () over a entire advancing distance (G) comprises a tensioning device having a tensioning element () for tensioning a spring device (). A predetermined distance (A) between the tensioning element () and the advancing element () or between the counter element () and the tensioning element () that engages with advancing element can be set according to the advancing of the advancing element () by a partial advancing distance that is less than the entire advancing distance (G). According to a method for discharging a fluid product from a container () via an outlet (), a plunger () is displaced inside the container () by means of a drive device provided with an advancing element () and with a spring device (), whereby the spring device () is tensioned by a tensioning device according to the advancing of the advancing element () by a partial advancing distance.

Drive device and method for advancing an advancing element

A device for dosing a substance, including at least one rotating element and at least one coding element associated with the rotating element, using which the rotational position of the rotating element can be identified, further including at least one reference element whereby a reference signal is generated at pre-set positions or changes in position, and a method for identifying the rotational position of a rotating element which serves to set a dose, wherein the rotational position of the rotating element is identified by a coding which is only read or evaluated when a reference signal is generated at pre-set rotational positions or positional transitions.

Device and method for dosing a substance

A fluid system that includes a flow system for a liquid having an inlet, an outlet, at least one fluid line extending from the inlet to the outlet and an electrically activatable melting device, wherein activation of the melting device causes melting, which interrupts, stops or diverts a flow of the fluid through the flow system. In one embodiment, the fluid system may be used in a device for measuring blood sugar.

Fluid system comprising a safety device

A fluid system that includes a flow system for a liquid having an inlet, an outlet, at least one fluid line extending from the inlet to the outlet and an electrically activatable melting device, wherein activation of the melting device causes melting, which interruptes, stops or diverts a flow of the fluid through the flow system. In one embodiment, the fluid system may be used in a device for measuring blood sugar.

A cannula cover for use with an injector or injection device, wherein the injector or injection device includes a dosing section and a cannula support, and wherein the cover is attached to the cannula support and can be retracted against a bias in order to expose a cannula, said cannula cover including, in one embodiment, a substantially closed front facing side having an openable cannula passage opening.

Cannula protecting cover

An ampoule for use with an administering device such as an injection or infusion apparatus, at least two recognition elements associated with the ampoule, each of which at least two recognition elements can be arranged in one of at least two predetermined positions relative to the ampoule, wherein the at least two predetermined positions are asymmetrically located relative to the ampoule, and an administering device such as an injection or infusion apparatus which can be coupled to the ampoule. In one embodiment, the administering device has at least two associated sensors at predetermined positions in order to recognize the arrangement of the at least two recognition elements associated with an ampoule and, in another embodiment, the administering device has at least one sensor which can be moved relative to an ampoule.

Ampoule recognition

A device for dispensing a product in doses including a casing element, a dosing device shiftable relative to the casing element in a dispensing direction, a setting device for setting the position of the dosing device, and a restoring element for returning the dosing device to a starting position, wherein a movement of the dosing device in the dispensing direction charges the restoring element.

Device for dispensing an injectable product in doses

A device for administering an injectable product in doses, wherein the device includes a casing, a reservoir for the product, a piston, an advancing element which moves the piston a selected path length, and a dosing mechanism including a number of dosing bodies and a dosing element operable to move the dosing bodies, wherein the path length is selected by the dosing element moving at least one dosing body between the piston and the advancing element.
