Actuation mechanism
An actuation mechanism is presented for a medicament delivery device having a plunger rod arranged to act on a stopper of a medicament container, an actuator arranged slidable and connected to the plunger rod for acting on the stopper when said actuator is operated by displacing it in a longitudinal direction of the actuation mechanism, and an activator for activating the actuation mechanism and for setting a dose. The activator having a generally tubular activator sleeve provided with a spirally extending groove on an outer surface, the groove arranged with a length corresponding to the total amount of medicament to be delivered in a number of doses contained in said medicament container, where the groove is provided with an end wall, a stop ring arranged coaxial with said activator sleeve. The activator sleeve arranged with a follower positioned in the groove and the follower arranged to abut the end wall when the total amount has been delivered.
Assembly for a drug delivery device and drug delivery device
An assembly for a drug delivery device comprises a housing, a dose member which is displaceable in a proximal direction with respect to the housing for setting of a dose of a drug, a clutch member which is displaced in the proximal direction with respect to the housing when setting the dose, and a stop member configured to define a clutch stop position. The clutch member and the dose member are configured to mechanically cooperate with one another when the clutch member is in the clutch stop position, thereby preventing further displacement of the dose member in the proximal direction with respect to the housing during setting of the dose.
PRECISION DOSE DELIVERY DEVICE PLUNGER ROD INSERTION GAUGE AND METHODS THEREFOR
A plunger rod insertion gauge for a precision dose delivery device is disclosed. The insertion gauge includes: an insertion gauge body including a handle portion and a gauge portion; wherein the gauge portion includes one or more plunger rod abutting surfaces and one or more flange abutting surfaces oriented substantially perpendicular to a plunger rod insertion axis; and wherein a dimension measured between the one or more plunger rod abutting surfaces and the one or more flange abutting surfaces defines a maximum plunger rod insertion depth for the precision dose delivery device. Other aspects are described and claimed.
Injection apparatus comprising a laterally attached actuation member for triggering the product release
A drive and metering apparatus for an injection apparatus for releasing a liquid product, the drive and metering apparatus comprising: a) a housing, b) a dose adjustment member, which is rotatable relative to the housing for adjusting the product dose to be released, c) an actuation member which is displaceable from a non-actuated position, which it assumes while adjusting the product dose to be released, into an actuated position, which it assumes while it releases the product, wherein the displacement of the actuation member into the actuated position triggers a product release and the actuation member comprises an actuation section, which is accessible to a user of the drive and metering apparatus and by means of which the user can displace the actuation member from the non-actuated position into the actuated position, d) wherein the actuation section is arranged distally in relation to the dose adjustment member.
Colored Seal System
A colored seal system, method, and apparatus. A barrel includes barrel markings including at least numeric measurements and fill indicators. The fill indicators define open space enclosed by the fill indicators. The colored seal system includes a colored seal slidably positioned within the barrel for moving a delivery agent. The colored seal is visible within at least one of the fill indicators.
MICRODOSING
A dosing system for transferring an aseptic fluid in dosages into a container, comprising a peristaltic pump configured such that the filling accuracy for fill volumes of the aseptic fluid <100 μL is ±3 μL.
Assembly for a drug delivery device and drug delivery device
An assembly for a drug delivery device comprises a housing, a dose member which is displaceable in a proximal direction with respect to the housing for setting of a dose of a drug, a clutch member which is displaced in the proximal direction with respect to the housing when setting the dose, and a stop member configured to define a clutch stop position. The clutch member and the dose member are configured to mechanically cooperate with one another when the clutch member is in the clutch stop position, thereby preventing further displacement of the dose member in the proximal direction with respect to the housing during setting of the dose.
DOSE SETTING SENSOR ASSEMBLY WITH ALGORITHMIC AUTO CALIBRATION
Drug delivery system comprising a dose setting member adapted to incrementally rotate in a first direction to set a dose, and incrementally rotate in an opposed second direction to reduce a set dose, the dose setting member having a rotational slack in each incremental rotational position. The system further comprises a rotary sensor adapted to detect the amount of rotation of the dose setting member during dose setting. Processor means is adapted to detect a first or second dose setting pattern when the final dose was set by rotating the setting member in the first respectively the second direction. When a first / second dose setting pattern is detected the detected amount of rotation is used to calculate a corrected amount of rotation using a first/ second algorithm compensating for a slack-induced error generated corresponding to the first/ second dose setting pattern.
Monitoring device
The present invention relates to a monitoring device (10) arranged to be operably connected to a medicament delivery device (12), said medicament delivery device (12) comprising a manually operated movable dose activation element (20), said monitoring device (10) comprising an electronic circuit (42), said electronic circuit (42) comprising an optical sensor (68), wherein said optical sensor (68) is positioned in relation to said dose activation element (20) so as to detect a manual operation of said dose activation element (20) from an initial position; said electronics circuit further comprising a vibration sensor (70), wherein said vibration sensor (70) is positioned in relation to said medicament delivery device so as to detect specific vibration spectra produced by the medicament delivery device when said dose activating element (20) is operated, wherein said electronic circuit (42) comprises computing elements capable of correlating the information from the optical sensor (68) with the information from the vibration sensor (70) when said dose activation element (20) is operated in order to register when a correct dose has been set.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DELIVERING SUBCUTANEOUS DOSE THROUGH MULTIPLE INJECTIONS
A device for administering needle-free subcutaneous treatment to a patient comprises an actuator configured to deliver a plurality of volumes of a treatment at a plurality of locations on a body of the patient; at least one imaging device configured to detect a movement of the needle-free device from a first location on the body of the patient to a second location on the body of the patient; and a processor configured to determine the second location on the body of the device relative to the first location from the movement of the needle-free device relative to the first location on the body, the processor further configured to determine a volume of the plurality of volumes of the treatment to deliver to the body of the patient at the second location.
