A standalone safety device for a needle of a medical device A safety device for a needle of a medical device, the safety device including: a ring fixed with regard to the needle, a shield mounted on the ring by a pivot link, a protective cap covering at least partially the needle in an initial configuration, a translation locking unit adapted to prevent a translation movement of the protective cap, and a rotation locking unit adapted to prevent a rotation movement of the shield with regard to the ring. The translation locking unit is configured to be disengaged by the application of a predetermined translation force on the protective cap. The rotation locking unit is configured to be disengaged during a portion of the translation movement of the protective cap with regard to the shield.

A syringe includes a dosage setter operatively coupled to a plunger rod and comprising a rotatable body that comprises a set of one or more stops for engaging the set of one or more protrusions of the plunger rod depending on at least a rotational position of the set of one or more stops relative to the set of one or more protrusions, wherein a first rotational adjustment associated with the dosage setter is configured to set a first dosage increment by adjusting a relative axial position between the rotatable body and the plunger rod, and a second rotational adjustment associated with the dosage setting assembly is configured to set a second dosage increment that is larger than the first dosage increment by adjusting a relative rotational alignment between the set of one or more stops and the set of one or more protrusions.

A safety needle system includes a safety mechanism for a needle assembly, such as a Huber needle. A main body has a channel having a proximal end to encompass tubing and a distal end for positioning proximate a needle. The main body further has a first hinge mechanism and a first latching mechanism. A movable cover has needle receptacle, a second hinge mechanism connected with the first hinge mechanism of the main body, and a biasing member for pivoting movable cover about the first and second hinge mechanisms relative to the main body. The movable cover has a second latching mechanism to latch with the first latching mechanism in a closed position, in which the safety mechanism can be undocked from the needle and slid away from the needle along the tubing. The movable cover has a release mechanism to allow pivoting of the movable cover about the hinge mechanisms such that the needle receptacle of the movable cover at least partially receives the needle of the needle assembly in an open, locked position.

The invention relates to a safety assembly having—an attachment ring attached to the tip of the container and—a safety device covering at least the distal end of the needle, the safety device attached to the attachment ring. The attachment ring has an inner ring having an inner face provided with a snap feature, which engages a complementary snap feature on the tip of the container to prevent axial movement of the inner ring with respect to the container. The snap feature moves radially to engage the complementary snap feature on the tip of the container; and an outer ring is fixed on the inner ring, with a sleeve portion surrounding at least a portion of the inner ring to prevent radial movement of the snap feature once the snap feature has engaged the complementary snap feature on the tip of the container.

Needle covers having a clam-shell configuration configured to removably attach to a feature of a needle while the needle is inserted into the skin of a patient. The needle cover comprises a base having connecting feature, and a two-piece hinged cap connected to the base by two living hinges.

A safety cover configured to be coupled to an injection device and to provide a protective enclosure for a needle of the injection device, the safety cover including an outer cover member; an inner cover member coupled to the outer cover member in a concentric arrangement so that the outer cover member encloses at least a portion of the inner cover member, wherein the outer cover member is configured to move relative to the inner cover member from an unlocked position, in which the needle of the injection device is accessible for use, to a locked position, in which the outer cover member and the inner cover member are fixed at one another and the needle of the injection device is inaccessible, wherein the outer cover member includes a body that includes a proximal end, a distal end, and a cavity defined within the body.

The invention relates to a protection device (1) for a needle (203) of a tip (201) of a drug delivery device (202), comprising: —fixing means (2) for fixing the protection device to said tip, —protective legs (4) capable of transitioning from a first configuration ration in which they cover the needle, to a second configuration in which the needle is exposed, and to a third configuration in which they cover the needle, via pivot links, —removable maintaining means for maintaining the protective legs in their first configuration, —retaining means (9, 10) for retaining the protective legs in their third configuration, said pivot links comprising elastic return means (5) for automatically transitioning the protective legs from their first configuration to their second configuration. The invention also relates to an assembly comprising a drug delivery device and said protection device, and to a method for manufacturing said protection device.

A drug delivery device according to an embodiment may include a body including an opening; a magnetic element disposed in the body; a reservoir disposed in the body, connected to the magnetic element, and configured to store a drug; and an opening/closing structure coupled to the body and configured to open or close the opening.

A fluid injection device having a syringe body, a needle, and a needle protection device removable from the injection device and having a substantially flexible or deformable inner body and a substantially rigid outer body. In the stored position the inner body closes the dispenser orifice of the needle and the outer body co-operates with the injection device to fasten the protection device on the injection device. The protection device includes a protection system against accidental pricking, having protective flaps that are integral part of the outer body and movable between a covering position in which they cover the needle, and an open position in which the needle is uncovered. The protection system has a control ring that slides over the outer body so as to move the flaps from their covering position to their open position, before injection, and from their open position to their covering position, after injection.

Provided are an intradermal needle having a protector that is movable from an open position near a needle hub to a closed position where a needle tip is covered, a packaged article, and an injection device. The protector has an arm that is supported in a freely pivotable manner by an axle pin positioned on the base end side of the wide diameter part of the intradermal needle, and a lid supported by the arm. With the axle of pivoting of the protector positioned near the needle hub, the lid may be housed compactly near the needle hub when the protector is in the open position.
