A safety device for a medicament container includes a first sheath having a first ledge and a second ledge, a second sheath telescopically arranged with the first sheath and releasably coupled to the first ledge, and a finger flange having at least one resilient clip adapted to engage the second ledge first sheath.

Provided is a cap for an injector comprising a syringe with a needle cover. The cap comprises a first cap body part in the form of a sleeve having forward and rear openings; a second cap body part in the form of a plug arranged for receipt by said forward opening of said sleeve form first cap body part, wherein said plug form second body part defines a plug top and an inner plug body, and wherein said inner plug body defines a protruding pocket; and arranged for receipt within said protruding pocket of the inner plug body, a metal connector defining plural needle cover gripping elements arranged around a central hub, wherein each gripping element is provided with one or more barbs for gripping the needle cover. The first cap body part, second cap body part and connector are provided as separate parts. In the assembled cap, the plug top of the plug form second cap body part forms a cover for the forward opening of the sleeve form first cap body part, and the needle cover gripping elements of the connector extend into the sleeve form first cap body part.

The invention relates to a safe support device for a syringe, said support comprising a support sheath for the body of a syringe, and safety means which comprise an inner sheath suitable for sliding relative to said support sheath between a waiting retracted position, in which said inner sheath is substantially retracted inside said support sheath, and an active protection position, in which said inner sheath projects from said support sheath. The inner sheath has a free end portion formed by a flexible end-piece. The invention also relates to an assembly comprising such a safe support device and a syringe having a body, a piston and a needle disposed at one end of said body.

A grip accessory for a manual injection device comprises a housing having a generally hollow body for supporting a manual injection device therein. The housing comprises a distal portion comprising a first opening into which a manual injection device can be inserted, a proximal portion comprising a second opening through which a needle of the manual injection device is extendable, the proximal portion comprising a skin contacting surface at a proximal end of the device. An intermediate portion extends between the proximal and distal portions and guide means is provided on an interior surface of the distal portion for guiding a plunger rod of an injection device during delivery of an injection.

A protective assembly includes a body for receiving the syringe; and a coupling device inside the body, rigidly connected to the barrel as regards to axial movement relative to the body. The coupling device includes an attaching element which can be either in an engaged state to axially fix the coupling device and the plunger rod, or in a release state in which the coupling device and the plunger rod are axially free relative to one another. The coupling device is axially movable in the body from a storage position to an injection position in which the needle extends beyond the body, and in which the attaching element can move towards the release state. The coupling device is axially movable in the body from the injection position towards a safety position, in which the needle is covered by the body.

Provided is a cap for an injector comprising a syringe with a needle cover. The cap comprises a cap body defining an inner and outer cap body; provided to the inner cap body, a grip for gripping the needle cover of said syringe; provided to the outer cap body, an opposing pair of recessed portions, wherein each recessed portion defines a recess base, and wherein each recessed portion is bounded by a peripheral lip; and provided to the recess base of each recessed portion, an over-coating. The cap body comprises a generally rigid material and each over-coating comprises a more flexible material. Each peripheral lip defines banks that extend beyond the over-coating of the recess base.

Disclosed is an auto-injector apparatus for receiving a safety syringe, the safety syringe including a sheath deployable on actuation of a plunger to a position at least partially covering a needle of the syringe, wherein the apparatus is configured to allow movement of the sheath to a closed position that substantially covers the needle.

A safety device for an injection syringe including a syringe support, a protective sheath for protecting an injection needle carried by the injection syringe, the protective sheath being mounted to slide relative to the syringe support between an injection position in which the needle is uncovered, and a protection position in which the needle is covered, the protective sheath having an initial grip surface enabling the device to be gripped by a user, the initial grip surface being a projection that extends outward from the protective sheath, and a return spring for urging the sheath into the protection position. The sheath also includes an extender member for extending the initial grip surface, being a separate piece from the protective sheath, attached to the protective sheath in such a manner as to present an enlarged grip surface, larger than the initial grip surface.

The present disclosure describes a needle guard device or system that can be used with drugs requiring reconstitution. The needle guard is preferably a passive needle guard that can be used during reconstitution without activating the safety mechanism. Following administration of the medication, the needle guard shields a user from inadvertent needle sticks by extending a protective shield over the needle.

A syringe holder includes: a barrel body that holds a syringe; a holder opening; deformation promoting portions; and radial movement-restricting portions. The radial movement-restricting portions are provided close to the deformation promoting portions. Being brought into contact with first portions, the radial movement-restricting portions restrict the syringe from moving in a radial direction with respect to the barrel body.
