    摘要: An actuation mechanism is presented for a medicament delivery device having a plunger rod arranged to act on a stopper of a medicament container, an actuator arranged slidable and connected to the plunger rod for acting on the stopper when said actuator is operated by displacing it in a longitudinal direction of the actuation mechanism, and an activator for activating the actuation mechanism and for setting a dose. The activator having a generally tubular activator sleeve provided with a spirally extending groove on an outer surface, the groove arranged with a length corresponding to the total amount of medicament to be delivered in a number of doses contained in said medicament container, where the groove is provided with an end wall, a stop ring arranged coaxial with said activator sleeve. The activator sleeve arranged with a follower positioned in the groove and the follower arranged to abut the end wall when the total amount has been delivered.

    摘要: A drug delivery device (100) for estimating the amount of free air in a cartridge (1) comprising a cartridge receiving portion (not shown) adapted to receive a cartridge (1), the cartridge (1) comprising a body portion (6), an axially displaceable piston (5), and a distal outlet portion (4), an expelling assembly comprising an axially displaceable piston drive member (10) adapted to interface with the proximal piston (5) portion of a received cartridge (1), the piston drive member (10) is adapted to be moveable in a distal direction, and to thereby pressurize the drug in a received cartridge. The drug delivery device further comprises means for measuring and acquiring a property relating to a fluid pres-sure of the drug in a received cartridge (1), and where the property depends on the amount of free air (7) contained in the cartridge (1). The drug delivery device further comprises means (20) for measuring and acquiring the position of the piston rod drive member (10), and means (40) for measuring and acquiring the time. The drug delivery device further comprises means (30) for storing, and means (31) for processing the acquired measurements. The processing means are configured for estimating the amount of air (7) in the cartridge (1).
