The present invention is an auto-injector for the administration and self-administration of drugs by subcutaneous, intramuscular or intra-dermal injection and for drug solutions or suspensions. The auto-injector may comprise three modules for ease of assembly, the modules principally including a standard cartridge module with stopper and septum, a power source and indicator module that pushes against the cartridge stopper pressurizing contents, an injection progress indicator and a needle shuttle comprising of two needles, one needle being the injection needle and one needle being the septum needle. A needle guard ensures that the needle is always covered thus hiding the needle before and after the injection and that prevents needle stick injurie.

A feedback mechanism for an injection device that is configured to deliver a medicament to a user is described. The feedback mechanism comprises a piston and a fluid chamber, and the piston is adapted to move into the fluid chamber during use of the injection device. The feedback mechanism also has a damper that is arranged to damp movement of the piston, and an indicator that is arranged to provide feedback to the user after the piston has moved a pre-determined distance into the fluid chamber.

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.

A medicament delivery device (100) for the delivery of medicament from a container (12) through a cannula (16). The device comprises a chassis (300), a carriage (200), and an insertion spring (70) for biasing the carriage (200) for movement in an insertion direction with respect to the chassis (300) from a starting position in which the cannula (16) is shrouded to an insertion position in which the cannula (16) is extended. A drive mechanism (400) is provided for driving the container's stopper (22) to expel medicament. The drive mechanism (400) is carried by the carriage (200) and comprises a movable drive member (404), a drive means (40) for applying a driving force to the drive member (404), and force transmission means (406) for transmitting the driving force to the stopper (22). The drive means (40) is arranged around or alongside at least part of the force transmission means (406).

The present disclosure relates to a medicament delivery device. The medicament delivery device includes a needle for delivering a medicament and an insertion mechanism configured to urge the needle in a first direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the needle. The insertion mechanism includes a driving mechanism and a cam. The driving mechanism is configured to exert a force in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The cam is coupled to the needle and is configured to receive a force from the driving mechanism and move in the first direction in response to the received force.

An auto-injector may include a housing having a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis, the housing having a shorter dimension along the transverse axis than along the longitudinal axis, wherein the transverse axis is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis; a flowpath having a first end and a second end; and a container enclosing a first fluid, the container extending from a first end toward a second end along or parallel to the longitudinal axis and being movable from a first position to a second position along or parallel to the longitudinal axis, the container being fluidly isolated from the flowpath in the first position and fluidly connected to the flowpath in the second position.

The present invention relates to a medicament injector including an applicator with a cartridge-accepting receptacle. The medicament injector includes interchangeable, pre-filled medicament-containing cartridges. Each cartridge includes at least one barrier member having a closed position in which access to the medicament is inhibited. The barrier member is moveable from the closed position to an open position, in which the medicament is accessible via the applicator, when the cartridge is inserted into the cartridge-accepting receptacle. The barrier member moves back to the closed position when the cartridge is removed from the cartridge-accepting receptacle. This allows for a plurality of pre-filled medicament cartridges to be selected on demand via a need-based scenario for quick assembly with the medicament injector for use in various clinical scenarios to reduce the bulk, errors, complexity, and steps in medicament delivery while increasing the versatility, safety, and speed of medicament delivery in time critical situations.

A connection structure of a medical container includes a liquid medicine containing part that contains a liquid medicine and a liquid medicine discharge part that discharges the liquid medicine includes: a sealing member including a mounting part to be mounted to cover the outside of the liquid medicine discharge part, an opening formed in the mounting part in an extending direction of the liquid medicine discharge part, and an elastic sealing body disposed in a space between the opening and the liquid medicine discharge part and sealing the liquid medicine discharge part; and a connector including a connection needle that punctures the elastic sealing body, and a needle hub that holds the connection needle, in which the connector has a push-in structure that compresses the elastic sealing body when the connection needle punctures the elastic sealing body.

A syringe for injecting an injectable solution contained in a deformable cartridge includes a main body provided with a receiving compartment for receiving the deformable cartridge, the main body extending between a first end portion, a first opening being defined/formed in the first end portion, and an opposed second end portion, a second opening being defined/formed in the second end portion, a crushing device having a plunger sliding with respect to the main body between a retracted position and an advanced position and bearing a crushing head sliding with respect to the main body inside the receiving compartment for deforming and crushing the deformable cartridge, a support and fixing element to which the plunger is slidably constrained, and coupling means for removably coupling the support and fixing element to the main body and/or enabling the support and fixing element to be coupled to the main body so as to change a mutual position between the support and fixing element and the main body.

A drug delivery device configured to provide a dose of a first medicament followed by a dose of a second medicament is disclosed. The device includes a main exterior body and an interior body. The device further includes a dual-chamber reservoir with (i) a first chamber holding the first medicament and (ii) a second chamber holding the second medicament. The device also includes a needle and a plunger. After activation of the device, the plunger is configured to (i) move the dual-chamber reservoir a given distance in a distal direction with respect to the interior body so that a distal end of the needle extends out of the interior body and (ii) after moving the dual-chamber reservoir the given distance, move in the distal direction with respect to the dual-chamber reservoir so as to eject from the needle the first medicament followed by the second medicament.
