A dosing system for an injection device for dispensing a dose of a product includes a housing having a longitudinal axis, a dose-setting element, a holding element and a coupling sleeve for driving a driving device for dispensing the dose. The dose-setting element, holding element, and coupling sleeve may be accommodated in the housing. To set and correct the dose, the dose-setting element and the coupling sleeve move in the direction of the longitudinal axis relative to the housing, and the coupling sleeve may be held the holding element rotationally fixed by relative to the housing. To dispense the dose, the coupling sleeve may rotate relative to the housing, the dosing system including a guide in the housing, in which guide the holding element may be displaced in the direction of the longitudinal axis relative to the housing and be guided in a rotationally fixed manner relative to the housing.

A syringe holder includes a syringe barrel holder having a depression which is configured to receive and engage finger tabs of a syringe and has a bottom depression surface engageable by the finger tabs. A barrel opening receives a barrel of the syringe, and includes a central longitudinal axis, a shaft channel and a set screw channel having a screw axis passing through the shaft channel. A dosing shaft extends from a first end to a second end and includes a plurality of notches between the ends. The dosing shaft is located and slideable within the shaft channel. A plunger cap includes a plunger receptacle and attaches to a first end of the dosing shaft. A socket set screw is located and engaged within the set screw channel and has a resilient end engageable with the notches of the dosing shaft.

SYRINGE FOR RECONSTITUTING AND INJECTING A PHARMACEUTICAL SOLUTION
20210386937 · 2021-12-16 ·

A prefilled syringe includes a tubular containment body extending along an axis between a front end element and a rear end element, a fixed plug and two sliding plugs. A bypass channel in the initial position of the syringe is between the first two plugs which form, together with a third plug at the end of the syringe plunger, a first containment chamber containing a first liquid substance and a second containment chamber containing a second solid or liquid substance. The fixed plug is in contact with the front end element and is provided with a non-through cavity offset with respect to the axis and facing towards the front end element.

Drug delivery device with end-of-dose trigger arrangement

A drug delivery device comprising a rotatable scale drum, a trigger member, an actuation member, a trigger spring acting on the trigger member and being energized by movement of the actuation member, as well as an end-of-dose switch adapted to be actuated by movement of the trigger member. The trigger member is adapted to be arranged in an axially supported position against the action of the energized trigger spring, and released from the axially supported position when the scale drum is rotated from a set position to an end-of-dose position, whereby the trigger member is moved axially by the trigger spring, the end-of-dose switch thereby being actuated.

Drive mechanisms suitable for use in drug delivery devices

A drive mechanism suitable for use in drug delivery devices is disclosed. The drive mechanism may be used with injector-type drug delivery devices, such as those permitting a user to set the delivery dose. The drive mechanism may include a housing, a dose dial sleeve, and a drive sleeve. A clutch is configured to permit rotation of the drive sleeve and the dose dial sleeve with respect to the housing when the dose dial sleeve and drive sleeve are coupled through the clutch. Conversely, when the dose dial sleeve and drive sleeve are in a de-coupled state, rotation of the dose dial sleeve with respect to the housing is permitted and rotation of the drive sleeve with respect to the housing is prevented. In the de-coupled state, axial movement of the drive sleeve transfers force in a longitudinal direction for actuation of a drug delivery device.

SYRINGE WITH INJECTION DOSE ADJUSTMENT FUNCTION
20210379284 · 2021-12-09 ·

A syringe with an injection dose adjustment function, comprising a medicine vial connecting apparatus and an adjustable propulsion apparatus; by means of assembling the medicine vial connecting apparatus and a medicine vial, and then installing the adjustable propulsion apparatus in the medicine vial connecting apparatus and extending same into the medicine vial, a rotating knob of the medicine vial connecting apparatus can drive a push rod of the adjustable propulsion apparatus to move backward to a predetermined scale; at the time of injection, pressing the push rod enables the medicine vial to output a predetermined dosage of medicinal liquid, such that the syringe can adjust the injection dosage according to the requirements of different injection subjects.

Assembly for a Drug Delivery Device and Drug Delivery Device
20210369968 · 2021-12-02 ·

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 DETECTION FOR A MEDICATION DELIVERY DEVICE

The present disclosure relates to a dose detection system in combination with a medication delivery device. In one aspect, the system includes a module body adapted to be removably attached to the actuator of a medication delivery device, and one or more magnetic sensing elements attached to said module body. The system detects the amount of rotation of a magnetic ring of said one or more dipoles of a medication delivery device relative to the magnetic sensing elements during dose delivery when the module is attached to the device.
