A dosing syringe comprising a barrel and a piston is provided. The piston is slidably receivable in the barrel and can move within the barrel from a maximum inserted position to a withdrawn position to draw a dose of product into the barrel. The syringe comprises means for pre-setting the withdrawn position, whereby to define the maximum dose which can be drawn into the barrel.

An injection device incorporating a dose setting mechanism is presented where the dose setting mechanism contains a fail safe feature that activates during an interrupted dose delivery event. A dose selector having a projecting rib engages a protrusion on a snap element to prevent the dose knob from moving distally if a user removes an axial force in the proximal direction during dose delivery. The dose setting mechanism can further include a reuse prevention feature.

A dispense mechanism for a drug delivery device for the delivery of a primary medicament in a primary cartridge and a secondary medicament in a secondary cartridge includes a primary drive member and a secondary drive member serve for driving a primary and a secondary lead screw. The primary drive member and the secondary drive member are configured to rotate during dose dispense. A coupling member serves for rotationally coupling the primary drive member to the secondary drive member and moves from a first position in which the primary drive member is rotationally decoupled from the secondary drive member into a second position in which the primary drive member is rotationally coupled to the secondary drive member during dose dispense. Rotation of the primary drive member moves the coupling member from the first position into the second position.

The present invention relates to a medicament delivery device comprising a housing, an actuation mechanism (40) arranged inside said housing, the actuation mechanism comprising a plunger rod (42) arranged to act on a stopper (18) of a medicament container (16); an actuator (84) arranged slidable and connected to the plunger rod (42) for acting on the stopper (18) when said actuator (84) is operated by displacing it in a longitudinal direction of the actuation mechanism (40); an activator (104) rotatably arranged for activating said actuation mechanism and for setting a dose; said activator (104) comprising a generally tubular activator sleeve (148), said activator sleeve (148) comprises protrusions (150) arranged to interact with ledges (90) on said actuator (84) such that said activator sleeve (148) is rotated when said actuator (84) is operated. The invention is characterised in a first audio generating mechanism comprising audio generating elements (94) and said protrusions (150), which protrusions (150) are arranged to cooperate with said audio generating elements (94) for generating an audible signal after said operation for delivering a dose.

An injection device includes a housing having a receptacle for a vessel for holding injection fluid; an operator-manipulated element for setting an injection dose; a dosing member rotatable about a longitudinal center axis relative to the housing when setting the injection dose; a feed part; and, a latching unit acting between the feed part and housing. The dosing member has a zero position whereat no dose is set and an injection position whereat an intended dose of injection fluid is set. A spring acts between the dosing member and the housing to return the dosing member from an intermediate position to the injection position or a zero position.

Dosing device for an administration device with a limiting mechanism, comprising a first limiting means (50) with a first stop means (52), a second limiting means (30) with a second stop means (32), wherein the second limiting means follows movements of the first limiting means during dosing movements with a defined transmission ratio, and wherein the first and the second stop means each describe a path curve by their movements in such a manner that the two path curves intersect in at least one point or come so close together that the stop means contact one another in a stop position, whereby a blocking of the movement of the limiting means relative to each other during dosing movements can be effected in that the respective path curves described by the first and second stop means are closed and can be run through preferably multiple times by the first stop means, by the second stop means or by both stop means until the stop means contact one another at the stop position.

An assembly for a medication delivery device, wherein the assembly is configured to perform a dose setting operation, the assembly having a dose setting sleeve and a drive sleeve, wherein the dose setting sleeve has a first dosing track having a first length and defining a first size of a dose and a second dosing track having a second length and defining a second size of a dose, wherein the first length is different from the second length and the first size is different from the second size. The drive sleeve has an engagement feature configured to engage with one of the dosing tracks. The assembly is configured such the dose setting operation has a first step wherein the engagement feature is aligned with one of the dosing tracks and a second step wherein the engagement feature is moved along the dosing track.

A drive mechanism for a medication delivery device is presented having a housing, a rotation member that rotates in a first direction with respect to the housing during setting of a dose of a medication and rotates in a second direction with respect to the housing during delivery of the dose, the second direction being opposite to the first direction. The device also has a piston rod that is displaced in a distal direction with respect to the housing for delivering the dose, a drive member which follows rotational movement of the rotation member in the second direction during delivery of the dose, and a stop member which prevents rotational movement of the drive member with respect to the housing in the first direction during setting of the dose.

An injection device includes a housing; a receptacle for injection fluid; a dosing piston to press out the injection fluid; a feed part connected to the dosing piston via a first threaded connection; a slide having a thread of a second threaded connection; and, a setting part having a thread of a third threaded connection and configured to set an amount of injection fluid to be dispensed. The setting part moves in the distal direction by virtue of the third threaded connection when the amount of injection fluid to be dispensed is being set. The setting part can move in the proximal direction when the injection fluid is pressed out. A latching unit defines a latching position of the setting part and acts between the setting part and housing. Each latching position has an unequivocal rotational position of the setting part in relation to the housing assigned thereto.

An autoinjector comprises a housing, a product container, a displaceable needle protection sleeve, a plunger rod displaceable by a preloaded discharge spring, a dose setting element with at least two different rotational positions relative to the housing, and a dosing sleeve. The dosing sleeve or the plunger rod has a dose selection stop, and the other has at least one dosing stop. By rotating the dose setting element, the dosing sleeve or the plunger rod is rotated relative to the other. Upon displacement of the needle protection sleeve, the spring displaces the plunger rod, whereby, if the dose setting element is in the first rotational position, the dose selection stop and the first dosing stop strikes against each other, and, if the dose setting element is in the second rotational position, one of the dose selection stop and the first dosing stop is or can be moved past the other.
