A support structure for a medicament container is disclosed that is arranged to accommodate an elongated plunger rod, where the support structure has at least one flexible element arranged to be moved in contact with, and to exert a force, on a distal end surface of the medicament container, wherein the at least one flexible element is provided with a contact member arranged to contact an outer surface of the plunger rod and to be moved out of contact with the plunger rod when moved in contact with the medicament container.

Support structure

A sub-assembly for a medicament delivery device is presented having a cap provided with a distal opening and configured to be mounted to a proximal end of the medicament delivery device. A tubular remover is received in the distal opening of the cap, the remover having a proximal end portion fixedly attached to the cap, a housing with an internal structure and provided with a proximal inclined surface. The remover has a plurality of radially flexible legs extending longitudinally from a proximal end of the remover to a distal end thereof, each leg having a gripper that engages with a delivery member shield of the medicament delivery device and having a guide finger configured to extend distally beyond the grippers or cooperating with an internal structure of the medicament delivery device to guide radial expansion of the legs when the remover is mounted in the medicament delivery device.

Sub-assembly, a medicament delivery device and a method of assembling a sub-assembly

The present disclosure relates to a cap assembly for a medicament delivery device, having a cap containing a tubular body provided with a distal opening, the cap being configured to be mounted to a proximal end of a medicament delivery device, a tubular remover configured to be received in the distal opening of the cap, the remover having flexible radially inwards extending grippers configured to engage with a delivery member shield, and a tubular remover insert configured to be received by the remover and configured to be fixedly attached to the cap to prevent axial displacement of the remover insert relative to the cap, wherein the remover is axially displaceable relative to the cap and relative to the remover insert, from a first position in which the grippers are pressed radially outwards by an outer surface of the remover insert, to a second position located distally relative to the first position, in which second position the grippers are arranged distally beyond the outer surface of the remover insert, enabling the grippers to flex radially inwards to allow engagement with a delivery member shield.
