The present invention relates to a medicament delivery device comprising a housing, a biased medicament delivery member guard arranged movable in relation to the housing from a proximally extended position to a retracted position, a power pack comprising a plunger rod and a force element arranged to act on said plunger rod, which power pack is actuated by a release clip movable in relation to the housing and arranged to said plunger rod for releasably holding said plunger rod with the force element in a tensioned state; a rotator rotatably arranged inside said housing, which rotator is arranged with a guide element and a medicament delivery member guard lock element on its outer surface, wherein said medicament delivery member guard is arranged with release clip activation elements operably arranged to act on said release clip for releasing said plunger rod, and wherein said medicament delivery member guard is further arranged with a rotator activator element arranged to cooperate with said guide element for turning said rotator, upon movement of said medicament delivery member guard to the retracted position, and wherein, upon movement of said medicament delivery member guard back to the extended position, said rotator activator element will engage said medicament delivery member guard lock element and lock said medicament delivery member guard in a shielding position after removal of said medicament delivery device from a medicament delivery site.

Palm Activated Drug Delivery Device

A device configured to administer a medication can comprise a lower housing that includes a housing latch. The device can further comprise a needle guard that is movable relative to the lower housing along a first direction from a first position to a second position so as to expose a needle, and an upper housing supported relative to the lower housing. The upper housing can be configured to move with respect to the lower housing along a second direction from a pre-use position to a dispensed position. The housing latch can releasably interfere with the upper housing when the upper housing is in the pre-use position so as to prevent the upper housing from moving toward the dispensed position, and the movement of the needle guard toward the second position, causes the interference to be removed, thereby allowing the upper housing to move toward the second position.

LOCKING MECHANISM FOR A MEDICAMENT DELIVERY DEVICE
20230078909 · 2023-03-16 ·

A locking mechanism for use in a medicament delivery device prevents unintended movement or premature activation of a medicament delivery member cover while a protective cap is attached to the medicament delivery device. Removal of the protective cap unlocks the locking mechanism that can include a protrusion projecting radially inward from an interior portion of a protective cap and a locking ring having an annular shape and being rotatably positioned within the interior of the cap. The locking ring may include a first slot and a second slot, wherein the protrusion is slidably positioned within the first slot and the second slot is located at a distal end of the locking ring. A through hole opening in the locking ring allows the locking ring to rotate relative to the medicament delivery member cover from a locked position to an unlocked position when the cap is moved axially.

Prefilled syringe with breakaway force feature
11602597 · 2023-03-14 · ·

A jet injector that includes a prefilled syringe. The syringe includes a fluid chamber that contains a medicament. The syringe also has an injection-assisting needle, and a plunger is movable within the fluid chamber. A housing is configured for allowing insertion of the needle to a penetration depth. The housing includes a retractable guard and an interference component, e.g., a lock ring, adjacent to the retractable guard that interferes with the movement of the retractable guard. An energy source is configured for biasing the plunger to produce an injecting pressure to jet inject the medicament from the fluid chamber through the needle to an injection site.

MEDICAMENT DELIVERY DEVICE

The present disclosure relates to a medicament delivery device. The medicament delivery device comprises a housing, a needle and a reservoir. The needle is configured to project from a distal end of the housing. The reservoir is disposed in the housing and has a flexible wall. The medicament delivery device further comprises a dispensing member and a biasing member. The dispensing member is disposed in the housing and the biasing member is configured to bias the dispensing member to move in an arcuate path relative to the housing such that the dispensing member moves across the flexible wall of the reservoir to dispense medicament from the reservoir when the reservoir contains medicament.

Needle-free injector
11471603 · 2022-10-18 · ·

A needle-free injection device including an outer housing and an inner housing configured to receive a needle-free syringe in one end. The inner housing of the device is moveable within the outer housing between a syringe loading position and a firing position. The device also includes an activation button and a housing lock engaged by the activation button to prohibit movement of the inner housing from the syringe loading position to the firing position if the activation button is activated in the syringe loading position.

Medicament delivery device

The present invention relates to a medicament delivery device comprising a housing (10), which housing is arranged to accommodate a medicament container (20); a power unit (88) comprising: a drive force element (98), an actuation unit (90, 102) operably connected to said drive force element (98); which actuation unit (90, 102) is movable, upon activation of said drive force element (98), for expelling a dose of medicament from said medicament container (20); a monitoring unit (130) provided with an electrical power source (140) for operating said monitoring unit (130).
