Abstract

Needle insertion mechanisms for an injection device include a housing, a needle holder holding a needle, a slider moveable from a first position retaining the needle holder in a retracted position towards a second position allowing movement of the needle holder to an inserted position. An intermediate member positioned between the needle holder and the slider is moveable from a blocked position to a release position releasing the needle holder for movement to the inserted position. A biased gearing between the intermediate member and the needle holder biases the intermediate member towards the release position. A lock between the intermediate member and the slider is configured to lock the intermediate member in the blocked position against the bias of the gearing. Movement of the slider towards the second position unlocks the lock and the biased gearing moves the intermediate member into the release position thereby releasing the needle holder.
