NEEDLELESS INJECTOR
A needleless injector that ejects an injection substance to a target region without using an injection needle, the needleless injector includes: an injector body formed by a resin member; an igniter; a housing part in which the injection substance is accommodated; and a piston that is configured to be moved by ejection energy in a predetermined path, communicating with the combustion chamber, to pressurize the injection substance. A reinforcing member is provided inside the injector body, formed by a metal member to be a tubular member, and extends in an axial direction of the injector body while surrounding at least the igniter and the combustion chamber, the reinforcing member being disposed to be sandwiched between parts of the injector body in a radial direction of the injector body.
Assembly for an autoinjector device
An assembly for an autoinjector device, the assembly including a syringe support for supporting a syringe by limiting forward axial movement of the syringe relative to the syringe support, and a guard element attachable to the syringe support by an attachment so that the guard element is axially restrained both axially forwardly and axially rearwardly relative to the syringe support by the attachment. Forwardly directed axial loads received by the guard element are transmitted to the syringe support via the attachment.
