An injection device comprises a housing with a receptacle for a product, a dosing mechanism for setting a product dosage to be administered and for displaying the product dosage that has been set, and a dispensing mechanism for dispensing the product. The dosing mechanism comprises a dosing sleeve which is rotatable relative to the housing in a first direction for setting a product dosage and which is rotatable relative to the housing in a second, opposite direction for correcting or dispensing a product dosage. The dispensing mechanism comprises a piston rod, at least one sleeve, and a clutch. The device further comprises a first detector for detecting movement of the clutch relative to the dosing sleeve and/or the housing and/or the at least one sleeve and a data processing unit connected to the first detector for reading, storing, processing, transmitting, and/or displaying signals received from the first detector.

Disclosed herein are delivery devices for delivering a volume of a drug product, placebo product, or other product including a fluid. The devices may include a barrel having a longitudinal axis, a proximal end region, and a distal end region. The proximal end region may include an opening, and the barrel may be configured to receive a drug therein. A plunger rod may be disposed at least partially inside the barrel and protruding from the opening. The plunger rod may include a rack having a plurality of teeth. The device may further include a pinion having a plurality of teeth configured to engage with the plurality of teeth of the rack, and rotation of the pinion against the rack may move at least a part of the plunger rod along the longitudinal axis of the barrel.

The present invention relates to a handheld mechanical injection device by which set doses of a liquid medicament can be injected from a medical reservoir. The medicament is expelled through an injection needle by release of a power reservoir in the device, the power reservoir being fully or partially released by actuation of a user operable release member being positioned at or near an upper end of the injection device, the upper end being that end of the injection device which is opposite the injection needle.

An injection device incorporating a dose setting mechanism that contains a dose selector having a fail safe feature that activates during an interrupted dose delivery event where a projecting rib engages a protrusion on a snap element to prevent the dose knob from moving distally when a user removes an axial force in the proximal direction during dose delivery, intermediate stops to assist the user in dialing a dose and an injection feedback mechanism.

An injection device incorporating a dose setting mechanism is presented where the dose setting mechanism contains a dose selector having one or more dose stops corresponding to a finite set of predetermined fixed doses, where the set of finite predetermined fixed doses includes a lowest fixed dose and one or more higher fixed doses, and where at least one of the one or more higher fixed doses is equal to the lowest fixed dose plus a fractional amount of the lowest fixed dose. The dose setting mechanism can further include a floating spline that is rotationally engaged with a snap element such that the snap element can rotate relative to the floating spline during both dose setting and dose delivery.

Implementations of the present disclosure are directed to an injection device including: a reservoir including a wall defining a proximal end, a distal end and a tubular side, a plunger rod configured to be movable within the reservoir in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end, a radio frequency (RF) antenna attached to the tubular side and configured to receive an interrogation signal from an external device, and a resonating assembly configured to receive the interrogation signal from the RF antenna and to generate a modulated RF signal having a frequency associated with a position of the plunger rod.

Skin can be treated by piercing skin with a plurality of needles of an injection device and ejecting a dose of fluid therethrough. The device can include a housing, a plunger disposed in the housing, a cartridge disposed in the housing, and one or more dosing chambers. The plurality of needles can be coupled to the housing and be in fluid communication with the cartridge. Advancement of the plunger can cause a dose of fluid to be ejected from the plurality of needles.

A supplementary device for an injection device is disclosed. The injection device has a control dial that is rotatably mounted about an axis at a proximal end of the injection device, and the supplementary device is attachable to the control dial. The supplementary device includes a sleeve adapted to be positioned over the control dial when the supplementary device is attached to the injection device. The supplementary device also includes an axial attachment member arranged such that insertion of the control dial into the sleeve moves the axial attachment member from an initial position that permits axial movement of the control dial into the sleeve, into an engagement position in which the axial attachment member engages the control dial to axially attach the supplementary device to the control dial.

Introduced here are novel techniques for augmenting the lips through superficial linear injection of dermal fillers. At a high level, these techniques are representative of a two-step approach to augmentation. In the first stage, an implement that is appropriately positioned inside a lip can be moved sideways—an action referred to as a “side push.” In the second stage, dermal filler can be ejected from the implement so as to fill the resulting void. These techniques can be used by healthcare professionals to reshape the lips for medical or aesthetic purposes. These techniques were developed in an attempt to permit augmentation of the outer surface of a lip so as to increase its volume by expanding sideways while turning the lip outward. With these techniques, the desired result—namely, a plumper lip—may be readily and consistently achievable.

A device for administering a fluid product includes a first housing part with a receiver for the product, a second housing part detachably connectable to the first housing part, a piston rod held such that it can be displaced for the exertion of an emptying movement, an actuatable or releasable drive element for the piston rod, a coupling element including a coupling input element that couples the drive element to the piston rod in a coupling engagement, transmits a driving force of the drive element to the piston rod, and triggers the emptying movement, and a decoupling element displaceably connected to the second housing part and coupled to the first housing part such that it is displaced, by a movement of the housing parts in relation to each other when the housing parts are separated into a decoupling position wherein the piston rod is decoupled from the coupling input element.
