Injection device comprising a tubular elongated main body, a needle shield slidably arranged in said main body, a needle shield link slidably connected to said needle shield, a enclosure containing medicament arranged in said main body, a needle connected to said enclosure, a plunger operatively arranged to said enclosure for ejecting said medicament through said needle and arranged on its upper part with a number of outwardly extending stop members, spring means arranged to said plunger for operating said plunger, a dose activating means, a needle shield spring surrounding the needle shield link. The invention is characterized in that said injection device further comprises a first tubular member rotationally and slidably arranged inside said needle shield link, said tubular member comprises a number or ridges and protrusions on both its outer and inner surfaces, said ridges and protrusions on the outer surface of the tubular member co-operate with guide members arranged on the inner surface of said needle shield link, said ridges and protrusions on the inner surface of the tubular member co-operate with the outwardly extending stop members of the plunger that said injection device further comprises a second tubular member arranged inside said housing, arranged and designed with a number of ridges and protrusions on its inner and outer surfaces capable of setting and delivering a certain preset dose.

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.

A gas mixture apparatus includes a measurement control system, an activation system, a pressurized chamber with one or more gases, and a mixing chamber. The apparatus can also include additional pressure regulation control systems. The gas mixture apparatus can be used to introduce and automatically perform the steps to achieve a desired concentration of the one or more gases contained in the pressurized chamber. The gas mixture apparatus can include the pressurized chamber within the apparatus itself such that no external devices are necessary for introducing the one or more gases into the mixing chamber.

A motorized drug delivery device configured to administer at least one pre-set dose of a medicament contained within a medicament container. The delivery device comprising a user activation system (13), a motor (22), a gear train (15) operatively coupled to the user activation system and the motor, and a piston plunger system (200) operatively coupled to the gear train. The piston plunger system comprises a piston plunger (50) and at least one plunger extension (42; 44) for extending a length of the piston plunger. The piston plunger system is configured to act on a stopper contained within the medicament container to deliver at least one pre-set dose of medicament. The user activation system comprises a mechanical automatic reset activation system for automatically resetting the drug delivery device after administration of the pre-set dose.

An injection device includes a housing, a dosing member held so as to be rotatable and fixed in the housing and an injection sleeve held so as to be rotationally fixed in relation to the housing and displaceable therein. A latching unit of the injection device is configured to act between two components thereof which, during setting of an amount of injection fluid to be dispensed, move relative to one another. A set amount of injection fluid is unequivocally assigned to each relative position of the two components.

A supplemental device for attachment to an injection device including a dosage window covering a sleeve on which dose values are marked is provided. The supplemental device comprises: a main body; an arrangement for supporting the main body of the supplemental device in a predetermined positional relationship with the injection device; a transparent protection window located at a surface of the main body that is aligned with the dosage window of the injection pen when in use; and a sensor arrangement supported in the main body and having a sensor directed at the protection window. The protection window has an optical power. The protection window may be a cylindrical lens or a toric lens.

A syringe includes a barrel with an internal surface defining an internal bore therein, a plunger disposed within the internal bore of the barrel, and a dose divider disposed on the plunger. The dose divider includes a first end, a first abutment surface, and a second abutment surface. The first abutment surface is spaced apart from the first end in the axial direction by a first axial distance, and the second abutment surface is spaced apart from the first end in the axial direction by a second axial distance. The second abutment surface is spaced apart from the longitudinal axis of the plunger by a first radial distance, and the first radial distance is greater than a radial dimension from a longitudinal axis of the barrel to the internal surface of the barrel near a proximal end of the barrel.

An injection device for delivering equal doses of a fluid contained in a reservoir, the device having a housing, and an arming mechanism and a dose delivery mechanism arranged therein, the housing coupled to an enclosure for the reservoir. The arming mechanism includes an axially non-displaceable and rotatable setting sleeve. The setting sleeve is coupled with a spring strained by the rotation of the setting sleeve during arming of the device. The dose delivery mechanism includes a screw ring and a nonrotatable and axially displaceable piston rod within the setting sleeve. The piston rod cooperates with the screw ring so that during arming, the screw ring and the piston rod are immobilized, and during delivery of each dose the piston rod is displaced along the housing due to unwinding of the spring and rotation of the screw ring, the displacement of the piston rod causing the fluid to be discharged from the reservoir.

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.

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.
