摘要:
A method and system for proving a drug delivery device having a variable dose. The drug delivery device comprising a first tubular member and a second tubular member rotatably coupled to the first tubular member. A maximum stop component is operatively coupled to the first and second tubular member such that the maximum stop component is movable from a first position to a second position. The first position defines a first maximum dose that may be set by a user of said drug delivery device and the second position defines a second maximum dose that may be set by the user of said drug delivery device.
摘要:
A method and system for proving a drug delivery device. The device comprises a drug delivery device housing and a medicament contained in the drug delivery device housing. A dose dial sleeve is positioned in the housing and is rotatable to set a non-inverted dose of the medicament contained in the medical delivery device. The non-inverted dose may be increased by turning the dose dial sleeve in a direction towards a user of the drug delivery device. The dose medicament may be decreased by rotating the dose dial sleeve in a direction away from the user.

A dose setting mechanism for a drug delivery device is provided comprising a dose setting member, a drive member, a clutch, a first clicker and second clicker. The first clutch and a second clutch are designed and adapted to each other such that at any time during operation either the first clutch rotationally couples the dose setting member and the drive member and/or the second clutch rotationally couples the drive member and the first clicker component. Further, the invention refers to an injection device with such a dose setting mechanism.

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.

A housing for a dispensing apparatus. The housing comprising a main housing and a dose dial sleeve. The dose dial sleeve comprising a helical groove configured to engage a threading provided by the housing. A dose knob is disposed near a proximal end of the dose dial sleeve and a piston rod is provided within the housing. The piston rod is non-rotatable during a dose setting step. A driver comprises an internal threading near a distal portion of the driver and is adapted to engage an external thread of the piston rod. A tubular clutch is located adjacent a distal end of the dose knob and operatively coupled to the dose knob. The dose dial sleeve may extend circumferentially around at least a portion of the tubular clutch.

A drive assembly for use in a drug delivery device is proposed, the drive assembly comprising: a housing having a proximal end and a distal end; an axis extending between the proximal end and the distal end; at least one drive member; a piston rod adapted to be driven along the axis by the drive member; an indicator adapted to provide positional information about a position of the piston rod relative to the proximal end, wherein the indicator and the piston rod are configured to convert a movement of the piston rod with respect to the housing into a rotational movement of the indicator. Additionally, a drug delivery device comprising the drive assembly is provided for.

A dose setting mechanism for a resettable drug delivery device is provided comprising a dose setting member and a drive member for driving a piston rod in a distal direction during dose dispensing, wherein the drive member comprises a proximal drive member and a distal drive member. Further, a first clutch is provided for releasably coupling the proximal drive member and the distal drive member. A spring means biases the proximal drive member and the distal drive member in the coupled state during dose setting and dose dispensing. According to one aspect of the invention engaging means are provided associated to the proximal drive member and to the dose setting member, wherein the engaging means are designed and arranged such that the proximal drive member entrains the dose setting member in the distal direction during dose setting but allows a relative axial movement of the proximal drive member with respect to the dose setting member in the proximal direction. Further, the invention refers to an injection device with such a dose setting mechanism.
摘要:
A resettable drug delivery device is provided comprising a body, a cartridge holder for receiving a cartridge, and means for releasably coupling the cartridge holder to the body or the dose setting mechanism. During an initial rotational coupling movement of the cartridge holder relative to the body or the dose setting mechanism the cartridge holder is caused to move in a first axial direction relative to the body or the dose setting mechanism and during a continued rotational coupling movement of the cartridge holder relative to the body or the dose setting mechanism the cartridge holder is caused to move in a second, contrary axial direction.
