One end of the barrel is provided with the stretchable piston, and another end of the barrel is provided with a clamping column. The exposed rubber plug is provided on a side of the stretchable piston away from the barrel. The built-in rubber plug is provided within the barrel. A Scale mark is provided on a circumferential surface of the barrel. The sealing rubber plug is inlaid and sleeved on the clamping column. The sealing sheet is provided on a side of exposed tuber plug away from the barrel. A blunt end is provided at an end of the needle away form a needle tip. The engaging rubber plug is provided outside the blunt end.

A medicament delivery device comprising a cannula for delivery of medicament, a cartridge assembly comprising a cartridge having a medicament chamber and a collar adjacent a distal end opening of the chamber, a sealing element for sealing the distal end opening, and a coupling element for retaining the sealing element against a distal end of the cartridge. The device further comprises a hub assembly comprising a hub body and a sealing element release member. The device is switchable from a starting configuration in which the release member is spaced from the sealing element to an activated configuration in which the release member cooperates with the sealing element to connect the medicament chamber to the cannula. The coupling element comprises an annular clamping portion for applying a clamping force to the sealing element to seal the sealing element against the distal end of the cartridge, and a generally tubular engagement portion.

A medicament delivery device is disclosed, comprising a cartridge assembly that comprises a cartridge having a medicament chamber for containing a medicament, a sealing element for sealing a distal end of the medicament chamber and a coupling element attached to the cartridge. The device also includes a sealing element release member, a cannula for delivery of the medicament, and a removable cap. The device is switchable from a starting configuration in which the release member is spaced from the sealing element to an activated configuration in which the release member cooperates with the sealing element to connect the medicament chamber to the cannula. A proximal end of the release member is sealed in a release member chamber defined in part by, the sealing element and in part by the coupling element.

An attachable needle assembly (2) for use on a medication delivery pen (4), the needle assembly (2) comprising a spike housing (8) that is configured to engage the medication delivery pen (4) and pierce a reservoir septum (6) of the medication delivery pen (4), a needle assembly housing (22) secured to the spike housing (8), the needle assembly housing (22) enclosing a septum (40) with a cavity (42) that is in continuous fluid communication with the spike housing (8), and a plurality of needles (44) configured to pierce the needle assembly septum (40), wherein when the needle assembly housing (22) is in a first position, the plurality of needles (44) are disengaged from the needle assembly septum (40), and when the needle assembly housing (22) is in a second position, one of the plurality of needles (46) enters into fluid communication with the septum cavity (42) and is exposed for medicament delivery.

Improved apparatus for use with medication in fluid form, which is particularly beneficial for medications having a relatively high viscosity. The disclosed syringe adapter has an opening that is relatively large, as compared to a conventional needle, and thus affixing the disclosed syringe adapter to a syringe improves syringeability of higher-viscosity medications. Some embodiments feature a lateral extension that prevents inserting the syringe adapter too far into a medicine bottle, and some embodiments feature a component that assists in firmly grasping. When the disclosed syringe adapter is affixed to a pistol-grip or tab-handled syringe, the medication withdrawn into the pistol-grip syringe can be more easily administered from the syringe barrel. In some embodiments, the syringe adapter will be replaced with a needle prior to injecting the medication, while in some other embodiments, the needle is affixed to the in-place syringe adapter for the injection. In yet other embodiments, the needle is affixed to a needle holder that, in turn, is affixed to the in-place syringe adapter for the injection.
