  • Publication number: 20230390493
    Abstract: A medicament delivery device is provided that has a body, a medicament container provided with a medicament delivery member arranged in the body, and a drive unit having a plunger rod and a drive spring. The drive unit is operatively connected to the medicament container. An activator is operatively connected to the drive unit. A safety mechanism is operatively connected to the plunger rod. In an initial state of the device, the plunger rod is held with the drive spring in a tensioned state and a safety mechanism is in contact with, and prevents release of, the plunger rod. When the device is pressed against an injection site, the activator acts on the safety mechanism for moving the safety mechanism out of contact with the plunger rod. The activator releases the plunger rod, causing the plunger rod to act on the medicament container for delivery of medicament.

  • Patent number: 11766522
    Abstract: An activation assembly for a medicament delivery device is presented having a delivery member cover provided with legs and configured to be biased in a proximal direction, a movable sleeve configured to be received between the legs, and an activation sleeve configured to be biased in the proximal direction, wherein the delivery member cover is configured to be moved in an axial direction between a first position and a second position, wherein movement of the delivery member cover from the first position to the second position causes movement of the movable sleeve from a first movable sleeve position to a second movable sleeve position. The delivery member cover axially displaces the activation sleeve in a distal direction when the delivery member cover moves towards the second position, thereby causing a first actuation of a sensor.
