An auto-injector is provided which includes a housing with a syringe slidably received therein. The syringe has a barrel with a piston movable therein and a needle extending therefrom. The piston is releasably secured to one end of a plunger which is slidably secured within a body in the housing and is operable through a bias provided by a motive source. In use, the plunger moves under the bias from a loaded condition to a discharged condition to move the syringe so that the needle extends from a tip at an injection end of the housing and to slide the piston within the barrel to expel the contents of the syringe. The plunger is held in the loaded condition against the bias by a detent extending from the body and which can be selectively released by operation of an actuator when pressure is applied to the tip.

A system comprises a first member, a second member, and a third member, wherein the first and second members are rotatable relative to the third member, wherein the first and second members are coupled to one another by a dead-angle follower coupling, wherein the dead-angle follower coupling is configured such that the first and second members are rotatable relative to one another, wherein the second and third members are rotationally coupled to one another by a switchable coupling mechanism, wherein the switchable coupling mechanism is switchable between two different states, a locked state and a non-locked state, wherein the maximum torque transferable between the second and third members via the switchable coupling mechanism in the locked state is greater than in the non-locked state, wherein the switchable coupling mechanism is in the locked state when the first member is in a locking position relative to the second member.

The present disclosure relates to relates to medication injection devices, and in particular to systems and methods for on-demand delivery of a non-liquid medication from a wearable medication injection device. Particularly, aspects of the present invention are directed to a device that includes a housing defining a chamber, a piston disposed within the chamber, a needle disposed within the chamber on a first side of the piston, an energetic material disposed within the chamber on a second side of the piston, and a medication strip disposed within the needle. The medication strip includes an injectable substance in a non-liquid form.

Systems, devices, and techniques are disclosed for administering and tracking medicine to patients and providing health management capabilities for patients and caregivers. In some aspects, a method includes receiving one or more analyte values associated with a health condition of the patient user; receiving contextual data associated with the patient user obtained by the mobile computing device, where the obtained contextual data includes information associated with a meal; determining a medicine metric value associated with an amount of medicine active in the body of the patient user; autonomously calculating a dose of the medicine without input from the user based at least on the one or more analyte values, the medicine metric value, and the information associated with a meal; and continuously displaying the calculated dose of the medicine.

A medical injection system is provided. The medical injection system comprises an injection module and the cartridge module coupled to the injection module. The injection module comprises a lead screw movable along an axial line into the cartridge module; a driver sleeve configured to partially accommodate the lead screw and to have a first sleeve end facing a distal end and having sleeve teeth, a dose plate including a first plate end facing the distal end, a second plate end facing a proximal end and having plate teeth corresponding to sleeve teeth, and a side surface located between the first plate end and the second plate end and having a surface tooth; and an indicia tube configured to accommodate the driver sleeve and the dose plate and to have tube concaves near a first tube end facing the distal end. The surface tooth corresponds to one of the tube concaves.
