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.

A device for administering a fluid product includes a first housing part 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 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 medicine dispensing device and system for administering a selected drug. The medicine dispensing device includes a vessel configured to retain a drug to be dispensed. The medicine dispensing device may comprise a first series of zones of varying widths on a surface of the vessel, with each zone of the first series of zones corresponding to a pre-determined dose of the drug for a first medical condition wherein the first series of zones are correlated to a first series of values of a physical characteristic of a patient; and a second series of zones of varying widths on the surface of the vessel, with each zone of the second series of zones corresponding to a pre-determined dose of the drug for a second medical condition wherein the second series of zones are correlated to a second series of values of the physical characteristic of a patient.

An injection device for dispensing a product, the injection device including a moveable element which is moved for a dispensing operation, a spring, a product container holder and a product container, wherein the spring pushes against the moveable element to move the moveable element to an initial position after the dispensing operation has ended and against the product container to seat the product container in the product container holder.

A fluid injection device of the jet stream type, comprising: —a housing defining a fluid collection chamber and having a nozzle; —a coupler for coupling the fluid injection device with a fluid container; —a piston head configured to be received and movable in the housing, to increase and decrease a volume thereof; —a piston rod, coupled to the piston head and having an internal flow channel, which extends from the piston rod for penetration of the fluid container, the piston head including a valve made of an elastically deformable material and comprising a radial flow channel, the radial flow channel being open when the piston head is moved in a fluid collection chamber volume increasing direction and the radial flow channel being closed by an elastic deformation of the valve material when the piston head is moved in a fluid collection chamber volume decreasing direction.

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.

An injector apparatus includes a housing (10.sup.1, 10.sup.2) for a cartridge or syringe, a plunger (40) for cooperating in use with the cartridge or syringe to express successive doses, a dose setting arrangement (16, 20) to select a dose volume, and a drive mechanism (22, 24) releasable to advance the plunger in respective predetermined increments of magnitude to express the successive doses. The drive mechanism includes a drive spring (22) for imparting movement directly or indirectly to the plunger (40), and the dose setting arrangement includes a dose setting element (16) moveable in a dose setting routine to define a magnitude of an increment of movement of the plunger for a given dose. The drive mechanism further includes a clutch arrangement (56) operable during the dose setting routine to inhibit forward movement of the plunger and/or to isolate the dose setting element from the force of the drive spring.

In a dose setting mode of a dose delivery device, a dose selector is rotated to turn a nut, which thereby moves backward along a thread of a piston rod through a first axial distance. A gearing mechanism transmits the axial movement of the nut to a connector that moves backward, without rotation, through a second axial distance. In a dose delivery mode of the device, the dose selector is pushed forward and drives the connector to move forward through the second axial distance. The gearing mechanism transmits the axial movement of the connector to the nut, which pushes the piston rod forward, without rotation, through the first axial distance. The gearing mechanism includes a first gear that rotates without axial movement relative to the housing, and a second gear that rotates without axial movement relative to the nut.
