A medicament delivery device (IO) is presented having a housing and a medicament container holder arranged movable in relation to the housing and capable of accommodating a medicament container. The device also has an activator having a plunger rod arranged to be moved in the proximal direction of the medicament delivery device by the activator to act on a stopper in the medicament container for delivering a dose of medicament through a medicament delivery member when the activator is operated. A delay mechanism is also arranged between the activator and the plunger rod, which is provided with delay elements allowing movement of the activator in the proximal direction after movement of the plunger rod has terminated.

The present disclosure is directed to a dose setting mechanism that may be used with a drug delivery device. The dose setting mechanism may include an inner body having a helical thread along an outer cylindrical surface of the inner body, and a drive sleeve for driving a piston rod in an axial direction, the drive sleeve positioned within at least a portion of the inner body. The dose setting mechanism may further include a dose dial sleeve rotatably engaged with the helical thread of the inner body and a dial grip connected to the dose dial sleeve and releasably connected to the drive sleeve. Further when a dose is set, the dial grip is rotated so that both the dose dial sleeve and the drive sleeve rotate with respect to the inner body.

The disclosure provides a dose controlled multi-shot injection device comprising a housing and a dose setting mechanism, wherein the dose setting mechanism includes a drive spring, a rotatable dose setting handle adapted to set a dose of medicament, thereby biasing the drive spring, and a ratchet mechanism for maintaining the drive spring in a biased state against a spring force at a set dose. The ratchet mechanism includes a fixed ratchet element coupled to the housing and having a circumferential teething, a movable flexible ratchet element provided with at least two teethed portions configured to engage the circumferential teething at least pairwise at any one of a plurality of engaging positions, which respectively represent a set dose, and a rotational element coupled to the dose setting handle configured to translate torque from the dose setting handle into a number of forces radially acting on the flexible ratchet element resulting in an elastic deformation of the flexible ratchet element, thereby releasing the engagement between the teethed portion and the circumferential teething.

Multi-dose dispenser comprising: a product reservoir (14), on the X-axis, opening at a distal end through an outlet orifice and comprising a barrel (24); a piston (20) comprising a piston rod (38) having a rack and, at a distal end of the piston rod, a piston head (34) slidably mounted in the barrel (24) along the X-axis; a pawl mounted so as to be movable along the X-axis relative to the reservoir and configured to cooperate with the rack so as to drive the piston along the X-axis only in a forward direction of the piston in the barrel; a spring arranged to push the pawl back along the X-axis in a reverse direction; a case containing the pawl and at least a part of the piston; and a check valve arranged to seal the outlet orifice and allow only an outlet of product from the reservoir.

A wearable drug delivery device that can deliver a liquid drug stored in a container to a patient is provided. The container can be a prefilled cartridge that can be loaded into the drug delivery device by the patient or that can be preloaded within the drug delivery device when provided to the patient. A sealed end of the container is pierced to couple the stored liquid drug to a needle conduit that is coupled to a needle insertion component that provides access to the patient. A drive system of the drug delivery device can expel the liquid drug from the cartridge to the patient through the needle conduit. The drive system can be controlled to provide the liquid drug to the patient in a single dose or over multiple doses.

A syringe device for ejecting a dose of a medicament, the syringe device comprising: a dose limiting mechanism arranged to interact with a dose ejecting mechanism to prevent ejection of a dose exceeding a set dose, and a safety mechanism, which is arranged such with respect to the dose ejecting mechanism that, if the dose limiting mechanism fails, the safety mechanism prevents ejection of a dose exceeding the set dose.

A device for administering a fluid product, the device including a first housing part provided 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.

A medicament dispensing mechanism is disclosed that is configured to eject successive doses of the medicament from a medicament chamber. An embodiment of the dispensing mechanism includes a housing and a plunger rod configured for ejecting the doses of medicament from the chamber. The dispensing mechanism further includes an actuation mechanism that comprises a trigger associated with the housing and having a ready and a fired position with respect thereto. The trigger is configured for manipulation by a user for successive movement in a generally axial dosing motion from the ready position to the fired position in which the trigger is associated with the plunger rod to cause the plunger rod to eject one of the doses of a predetermined volume and a resetting motion from the fired position to the ready position that comprises axial rotation, wherein the trigger is uncoupled from the plunger rod during the resetting motion.

The present disclosure is generally directed to a drug delivery device for selecting and dispensing a number of user variable doses of a medicament. The device comprises a housing and at least two separate component parts, wherein for example at least one of these component parts performs a movement relative to the housing during dose setting and for example at least one of these component parts performs a movement relative to the housing during dose dispensing, and wherein the relative movement of the at least two separate component parts with respect to each other during dose setting differs from the relative movement of the at least two separate component parts with respect to each other during dose dispensing. The device further comprises a monitoring device, wherein at least one component part of the device is diaphanous to allow optical detection of the movements of the at least two separate component parts relative to the housing, relative to the monitoring device and/or relative to each other during dose setting and/or during dose dispensing by the monitoring device.

A rotary sensor assembly, comprising a first sensor part with a plurality of position sensor segments, and a second sensor part with a grounded contact in contact with a position sensor segment. For a current incremental rotational position a contact is in contact with an un-powered current-position sensor segment, with the neighbour segments being in a powered state. When the contact is rotated to a powered next-position position sensor segment, the next-position sensor segment becomes a new current-position sensor segment. Electronic circuitry is adapted to detect that the new current-position sensor segment is grounded and that the first and second sensor parts thereby have been rotated one increment relative to each other, and subsequently change the state of the former current-position sensor segment from un-powered to powered and the state of the new current-position sensor segment from powered to un-powered.
