MEDICAMENT DELIVERY DEVICE
20220152307 · 2022-05-19 ·

A medicament delivery device is disclosed having a housing, an actuation mechanism capable of delivering doses of medicament from a medicament container and arranged with a delivery member, a shield, a guard movable within the housing, wherein the guard is operably connected to the actuation mechanism. A protective cap is releasably arranged on the housing and having a shield remover. A blocking element on the guard is movable between a blocking position and a release position and has an engagement surface to engage a proximal area of the housing. The blocking element engages with a surface of the shield remover to retain the blocking element in the blocking position. The engagement surface causes a blocking of the guard from movement and removal of the protective cap enables a movement of the blocking element to a release position when the engagement surface engages the proximal area allowing the member guard to move.

ACTIVATION AND DETECTION SYSTEM FOR A SUPPLEMENTAL DEVICE ATTACHED TO A MEDICAMENT DELIVERY DEVICE
20230241326 · 2023-08-03 ·

The present disclosure relates to an activation system for a supplemental device that is attached to an existing design of a medicament delivery device, where a movement applied on the protective cap or other covering of the medicament delivery device triggers the activation mechanism for re-establishing electrical contacts to close a circuit between a battery module and a power source, thus activating the battery module. The activation mechanism is configured to not intervene with the sterility of the dose delivery outlet. Thus, the supplemental device can be activated at any time before removal of the protective cap or other covering. The supplemental device can further have a transmitter for communicating information about the use of the medicament delivery device to an external device, such as a smart device. Memory storage elements can also be included having unique identification data. The present disclosure also relates to a medicament delivery device having the supplemental device attached.
