A drive mechanism for a medication delivery device containing a resilient member and having a rotation member configured to be rotated in a first direction during setting of a dose of a medication and to be rotated in a second direction during delivery of the dose, where the rotation member is coupled to a drive member that is coupled to a piston rod such that on dose delivery the piston rod is displaced in a distal direction to dispense a medicament and where the resilient member prevents movement of the drive member and the piston rod during dose setting.

The present disclosure concerns an indication mechanism for an automatic applicator, particularly for insulin or other liquid preparations, particularly for multiple injection administration of set doses of a medicine from an exchangeable container, for example for the self-application of insulin by diabetes patients. An indication mechanism for an automatic applicator, having an assembly of at least two barrels movably coupled to each other has an indication barrel mounted on the driving barrel contains only marking on its external surface and is co-axially connected to the pull-push control nut.

An injection pen, comprising a housing, a lead screw axially moveable in the housing, a dose set member for dose setting and dose correcting, threadably connected to the housing and having a first mating feature, a setback member having a second mating feature for engaging the first mating feature, a clicker that generates an audible or tactile indication during operation, the clicker being operatively connected to the dose set member, and a push button operatively connected to the setback member to cause the second mating feature to engage the first mating feature during an injection, the push button receiving the clicker, wherein the first mating feature is disengaged from the second mating feature during the dose setting and the dose correcting and engaged with the second mating feature during the injection.

A dose setting mechanism for a drug delivery device is disclosed. The mechanism comprises an outer housing and an inner housing having an external groove and a helical spline. The inner housing helical spline guides a driver to dispense a set dose. A dial sleeve is disposed between the outer and inner housing and is rotatably engaged with the inner housing. When a dose is set, the dial sleeve is rotated and translates away from both the outer housing and the inner housing.

A medicine injection pen includes a rotatable drive member and a rotary encoder associated with the drive member. The rotary encoder is configured to determine an amount of liquid medicine dispensed based on a rotational orientation of the drive member.

A dosing mechanism for an injection device includes a dose-setting element with a first element coupled thereto, which, during dose setting, is rotatable relative to a second element about a main rotation axis in a first direction and, during dose discharge, is fixed in rotation relative to the second element. The first and the second elements are coupled via a sleeve-shaped stop element, which forms a stop abutment. The dosing mechanism includes a stop, and the stop abutment, during the rotation of the first element in the first direction, executes a movement to a stop position where the stop abutment strikes the stop and prevents rotation of the first element relative to the second element in the first direction of rotation. The sleeve-shaped stop element is rotatable about a secondary rotation axis, which is offset parallel to or offset at an angle to the main rotation axis.

A method of assembling a drug delivery device, comprising the steps of: inserting a piston rod in a nut portion of a cartridge assembly and rotating the piston rod until the piston rod distal end engages the cartridge piston, mounting a drive member on the piston rod in a rota-tional position being closest to a pre-determined rotational position, and rotating the drive member to the pre-determined rotational position.

A drug injection control device has a structure in which a rod lock screw-coupled to a piston rod can make a linear motion under restricted rotation within a rod holder with the rotation of a rod guide and the sub-linear motion of the piston rod. When the injection amount of drug is preset through an injection amount setting module to make a rotational motion with a dose dial in a housing to set the amount of drug to be injected by storing the twisting moment in a torsion spring, in actuating a drug delivery module switchably coupled to the injection amount setting module, the rod lock can make a linear motion by the sliding motion of a lock protrusion through a lock guide formed through the rod holder along the lengthwise direction on the rotation of the rod guide and the sub-linear motion of the piston rod.

A medicament delivery device for a mixing process to create a therapeutic substance for delivery within a multi-chambered cartridge, the delivery device includes a distal part with a dose setting mechanism having a housing, a dose setting knob, an injection button, a piston rod capable of moving axially along the longitudinal axis of the housing during dose delivery, and a return ring configured to reset the piston rod to a starting position. The delivery device also includes a proximal part including a cartridge holder configured to accept a multi-chambered cartridge, the cartridge holder including a screw driven sleeve configured for attachment to the distal part and rotation of the screw driven sleeve performing a medicament mixing process within the multi-chambered cartridge.
