Medicament delivery device
A medicament delivery device (100) for delivery of medicament through a cannula (132) from a cartridge (10), the device comprising a first container (11) for storage of a first substance, a second container (12), and valve means for closing a distal end of the second chamber (12), the second container (12) being arranged coaxially with respect to the first container (11), a mixing element (304) being provided for causing displacement of the second substance into the first container (11) through the valve means in a mixing stroke, a release element being provided for holding the mixing element (304) in an initial position and being operable to release the mixing element (304) to initiate the mixing stroke, there being a needle shroud (400) for shrouding the cannula, and removal of the needle shroud (400) from the cannula (132) causing operation of the release element.
Auto-injector
An auto-injector for administering a dose of a liquid medicament (M) is presented having an elongate case arranged to be held by a user, a tubular chassis telescoped in the case and biased against the case so as to protrude from the case. The injector also includes a syringe with a hollow injection needle, a drive spring and a plunger for forwarding load of the drive spring to a stopper of the syringe. A trigger button is distally arranged in or on the case, wherein the trigger button is initially coupled to the case in a manner to protrude distally from the case and interlocked to the chassis in a manner preventing the trigger button from disengaging the case.
PEN-TYPE INJECTOR
A pen includes a carpule having a longitudinal axis, a first end with a dispensing opening closable by a closure part, a second end via which at least one stopper can be inserted in the direction of the longitudinal axis, and an interior that is tightly closed by the closure part and the at least one stopper. A pen housing has a central axis, receives the carpule, and has a piston rod that interacts with the at least one stopper and a drive for moving the at least one stopper within the interior of the carpule, wherein the second end of the carpule can be inserted into the housing. The drive element moves the carpule into the housing in the direction of the longitudinal axis, which is arranged coaxially to the central axis of the housing, when the drive is activated; and in the process the piston rod is held in a fixed position with respect to the longitudinal direction of the housing such that the piston rod, which is engaged in the second end of the carpule, moves the at least one stopper within the interior of the carpule in the direction of the first end of the carpule.
INJECTION DELIVERY DEVICE
An injection delivery device involves a body, a medication-containing vial within at least a portion of the body, the medication-containing vial having an open end and a closed end opposite the open end. The open end of the vial includes a seal that prevents medication contained therein from exiting the vial until delivery of the medication to a target injection site is desired. The injection delivery device also includes a plunger positioned near the open end of the vial and a needle having a passage therethrough, wherein the needle, plunger and vial are positioned relative to each other such that, during delivery of an injection, a portion of the passage will be within the plunger, and the plunger and needle will remain stationary relative to each other while the vial moves relative the plunger in a direction towards the target injection site.
Medicament delivery devices
A medicament delivery device (100) for delivery of medicament from a cartridge (10) into an injection site, through a cannula (134). The cartridge has a medicament chamber (14) with an outlet (15), and a sealing element (16) for closing the outlet (15). The device has a housing (102) for receiving the cartridge (10), and a drive mechanism (200) to expel the medicament from the device upon activation of the drive mechanism (200). The device has a connection arrangement (199) comprising a hub (166) and spring means (184) for driving relative movement between the hub (166) and the cartridge (10) upon operation of an operating member (190). The operating member switches the connection arrangement (199) from an unconnected configuration to a connected configuration, in which the hub (166) cooperates with the cartridge (10) to open the outlet (15). When connected, fluid may flow between the chamber (14) and the cannula (134).
Wearable injection device
The invention relates to a wearable injection device (1) for subcutaneous injection of a therapeutic agent, wherein the dose is injected over a specified period of time after the device is activated.
Devices and methods for delivery of substances within a prefilled syringe
An apparatus includes a housing, an energy storage member, a carrier, a medicament container, and a delivery control mechanism. The housing defines a gas chamber configured to receive pressurized gas from the energy storage member to pressurize the gas chamber. The carrier has a proximal surface that defines a portion of the gas chamber. The medicament container is coupled to the carrier and has a distal end portion coupled to a delivery member. The medicament container contains a medicament and includes an elastomeric member that seals the medicament within the medicament container. The delivery control mechanism is coupled to a proximal end portion of the medicament container and includes a flow restriction member for regulating a pressure supplied by the gas chamber and entering into the medicament container that acts on the elastomeric member.
INJECTION DEVICE
An injection device (10) comprising a housing (12), a needle hub (38) slidable within the housing (12), a needle (40) having a distal end piercing tip (42) and a proximal end piercing tip (44), the needle hub being moveable from a first position wherein the distal end piercing tip (42) is within the housing to a second position wherein the distal end piercing tip (42) extends outwardly of the housing (12), a spring (23) biassing the needle hub (38) towards the first position, and a cartridge receiving member (48) mounted within the housing (12), and a plunger rod assembly (66) for exerting pressure on the cartridge receiving member (48) to move the cartridge (26) and the needle hub (38) from the first position to the second position, the plunger rod assembly (66) and the cartridge receiving member (48) being arranged such that when the cartridge rod assembly is pushed, a rotational movement is imparted to the cartridge receiving member (48) to thereby prevent access to the cartridge after injection.
SYSTEMS, DEVICES AND METHODS FOR RECONSTITUTING THERAPEUTIC POWDERS, MIXING PRECURSOR SOLUTIONS, AND EXPRESSING SEALANTS FOR CONTROLLING BLEEDING AND SEALING FLUID AND AIR LEAKS
A sealant delivery system includes a syringe assembly having side-by-side syringes and a vial assembly having side-by-side vials. A first vial is aligned with a distal end of a first syringe and has a vial opening at the proximal end thereof that is closed by a first sealing membrane. A second vial is aligned with a distal end of a second syringe and has a second vial opening at the proximal end thereof that is closed by a second sealing membrane. The vial assembly includes a first piercing element moveable between a retracted position and an extended position for piercing the first sealing membrane to provide fluid communication between the first fluid chamber and the first vial, and a second piercing element moveable between a retracted position and an extended position for piercing the second sealing membrane to provide fluid communication between the second fluid chamber and the second vial.
Medicament Container
The present disclosure relates to a medicament container for accommodating a liquid medicament. The medicament container includes an elongated container barrel defining a longitudinal direction and having a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end is opposite the distal end. The container barrel includes a proximal container cross section at the proximal end. The elongated container barrel includes a distal container cross section at the distal end and the proximal container cross section is substantially identical to the distal container cross section. The medicament container further includes a seal arranged at the distal end and extending across the distal container cross section, and a retainer engaged with the seal and engaged with the elongated container barrel to fix the seal to the distal end.
