Abstract
A dose delivery mechanism and a medicament delivery device are presented having a housing holding a medicament container and a power unit, where the power unit has a plunger rod, a drive spring, operably arranged to act on the plunger rod and on the medicament container. A locking ring is operatively engaged with an actuator having a holding ledge that can releasably hold the plunger rod with the drive spring in a tensioned state, and with an actuator sleeve to form a lock that prevents axially movement of the actuator after dose delivery. The locking ring also cooperates with the actuator to generate an end-of-dose delivery signal. An activator is directly engaged with the actuator to provide a well-defined activation point.
