MOTION-ACTIVATED SEPTUM PUNCTURING DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE
A method and apparatus are disclosed for delivery of a drug to a recipient. In some embodiments, the delivery apparatus may unseal a drug containing reservoir. In some embodiments, the delivery rate may be controlled and/or adjustable. Optionally the apparatus may be disposable. Optionally, the apparatus may have a low profile and/or be wearable and/or attachable to the recipient. Optionally, discharge of the drug and/or unsealing of the reservoir may be driven by a plunger moving parallel to the base of the apparatus. Optionally, the apparatus may release a hypodermic needle into the recipient. Optionally, release of the hypodermic needle may be in a direction non-parallel and/or orthogonal to the direction of movement of the plunger. Optionally, prior to release, the hypodermic needle may be preserved in an aseptic state by a needle opening septum sealing a needle opening. Optionally, upon release, the hypodermic needle may pierce the needle opening septum.
Medicament delivery device
The present disclosure relates to a medicament delivery device comprising a housing, a reservoir for medicament disposed in the housing and a dispensing member. The dispensing member is moveable relative to the housing from a first position to a second position to dispense medicament from the reservoir when the reservoir contains medicament. The medicament delivery device further comprises first and second biasing members. The first biasing member is configured to urge the dispensing member from the first position to an intermediate position. The second biasing member is configured to urge the dispensing member from the intermediate position to the second position.
Passive injection device with automatic securing means
Disclosed is an injection device of the type including a cylindrical body enclosing a reservoir containing a product to be injected, which is slidably mounted in the body, which is open at one end on an injection needle and is closed at its other end by a plunger mounted movable in translation in the reservoir under the action of a plunger rod provided with a control member, the surface of the distal end of the body being coated with adhesive capable of ensuring that this surface is held on the skin of a patient. This device is characterized in that it includes a mechanism for securing the needle, the activation of which is ensured by the adhesive when a withdrawal effort is exerted on the injection device.
