A driving and dosing device for an injection device for administering a liquid product, in particular a medication, wherein a product dose to be administered can be set by means of the driving and dosing device, comprising: a) a housing, b) a dose indicating element, around the circumference of which a dose scale is arranged, c) a pointing device and a (d) dosing element that can be gripped in particular by the user of the driving and dosing device, wherein the dose indicating element can be rotated, in particular screwed, relative to the pointing device and about an axis of rotation (L) and a value of the dose scale that corresponds to the set dose can be read by means of the pointing device, in order to set the dose to be administered by rotating the dosing element relative to the pointing device, and e); a discharge spring, which stores the energy required for discharging the product, wherein the discharge spring is loaded by means of rotation of the dosing element.

An assembly for a drug delivery device is provided, the assembly having a compression spring, wherein the compression spring is compressed during the setting of a dose of a drug. The assembly further comprises a sleeve member, wherein the compression spring is in direct contact with the sleeve member and wherein the compression spring and the sleeve member are configured such that a relaxation of the compression spring effects a rotational and an axial movement of the sleeve member in a proximal direction, thereby causing a dispensing of a dose from the drug delivery device.

A drug delivery device for selecting and dispensing a number of user variable doses of a medicament having a dose setting mechanism. The dose setting mechanism comprises a number sleeve adapted to provide a predetermined number of dose markings and a cover member adapted to cover the number sleeve at least section-wise. The cover member comprises at least a proximal cover member and a distal cover member axially movable with respect to each other and with respect to the number sleeve. An aperture is defined axially between the proximal cover member and the distal cover member. One of the dose markings is visible through the aperture. The aperture is variable in size depending on an axial position of the aperture with respect to the number sleeve.

A system for medication delivery comprises a Package containing a medication and a Dosing mechanism for delivering a dose of a drug, formulated as multiparticulate, microspheres, powder or liquid. The Package comprises a bottle, a bottle insert that covers the bottle opening and includes a dispense nozzle. The dispense nozzle is sealed using a valve that opens when the Dosing device is engaged with the bottle. A closure covers the bottle insert and closes the bottle. The Dosing device, similar to an oral syringe, comprises a barrel with a valve at its distal end, a plunger and a dose control clip for attachment to the plunger. After the dosing device is connected to the bottle valve, withdrawal of the plunger causes the dosing device to receive a dose of drug, the user pushes the plunger which pushes the MP drug through the valve and into a patient's mouth.

A device for delivery of medicament, which device comprises an elongated housing; a container mounted within said housing and adapted to contain liquid medicament; a stopper slidably arranged within said container; and actuating means comprising a resilient member, a driving means having one end connected to the stopper and a second end being operably connected to the resilient member, retaining means for releasably retaining said driving means in a first position where said resilient member has an accumulated energy, and activating means operably connected to said retaining means for releasing said driving means to a second position, upon actively operation by an user, such that said accumulated energy is transferred to the driving means for driving the stopper a predetermined distance within the container whereby the medicament within said container is delivered characterized in that the resilient member is a variable force spring adapted for generating a predetermined sequence of at least two different force profiles during the medicament delivery.

The present invention relates to a drive mechanism for a drug delivery device for dispensing of a dose of a medicament, and to a respective drug delivery device, wherein the drive mechanism comprises: an elongated housing (30) extending in an axial direction (1, 2), a piston rod (80) to operably engage with a piston (16) of a cartridge (14) to displace the piston (16) in axial distal direction (1), a drive sleeve (60) extending in axial direction (1, 2) and being rotatably supported in the housing (30), a dose setting member (40) rotatably supported on a side wall portion (31) of the housing (30) and being rotatable with respect to an axis (41) extending in radial direction (r), wherein the drive sleeve (60) is operably releasable from the piston rod (80) and rotatably engageable with the dose setting member (40) for setting of the dose.

This invention discloses pre-filled syringes and adjustable or movable dose limit fittings that cooperate with the plunger rod to titrate dosage, and methods for using same.

A medication injection pen comprises a dose set knob rotatable with respect to a housing to set a desired injection dose. The dose set knob comprises at least one internal thread. A leadscrew includes a thread element for advancing in a first direction via a corresponding thread engagement. A driver is rotationally fixed to the leadscrew and is rotatable in a first direction to rotate and advance the leadscrew in the first direction. The setback member is rotationally fixed to the driver. The dose stop member is rotationally coupled to the setback member and is axially movable relative to the dose set knob when the dose set knob is rotated relative to the setback member. Axial movement of the dose stop member limits the user from setting a dose that is greater than an injectable volume of medication remaining in a cartridge.

A drug delivery device adapted to receive a cartridge and comprising a housing, an expelling assembly with a threaded piston rod, a threaded nut and a drive element arranged in non-rotational engagement with the piston rod, a drive coupling actuatable between a resetting state in which the piston rod can be moved proximally, and an operational state in which the drive element can drive the piston rod distally, wherein the drive element and the threaded nut are not moved axially relative to the housing when the drive coupling is actuated.

An injection device is for automatically squeezing injection liquid from a container and includes: a housing; an injection spring configured to cause squeezing of the injection liquid from the container; the injection device defining a longitudinal central axis and a proximal direction; a metering piston mounted so as to be movable in the direction of the longitudinal central axis of the injection device; the metering piston being configured to, when squeezing injection liquid, move in the proximal direction; a setting device for setting the quantity of injection liquid to be squeezed; an end stop which establishes a terminal position of the metering piston; and, the setting device having an adjustment unit configured to adjust the position of the end stop.
