  • Publication number: 20220296813
    Abstract: An adapter for use with a drug delivery device having a reservoir for containing a product, the reservoir having a distally projecting end-piece defining a passageway for the transfer of the product from the reservoir, includes a collar engageable with the end-piece, an adaptor securing member limiting translational movement of the collar with respect to the end-piece once the collar is engaged with the end-piece, at least one adaptor anti-rotation member limiting the rotation of the collar with respect to the end-piece once the collar is engaged with the end-piece, at least one deactivating member neutralizing the adaptor anti-rotation member in response to a turning torque equal or greater than a predetermined value applied to the collar when the collar is engaged with the end-piece, thereby allowing the rotation of the collar with respect to the end-piece.

  • Patent number: 8882726
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a drug delivery device defining a reservoir for containing a product, having a distal end comprising an end-piece defining a channel for the transfer of the product from the reservoir, said drug delivery device comprising means for coupling said end-piece with a connector, said coupling means comprising a collar defined around a portion of the end-piece and extending from the distal end, said coupling means comprising connection means connectable to said collar, said connection means comprising a tubular wall portion having an interface defined thereon for engagement with an internal face of said collar, and a retaining hook having engagement means engageable with at least part of an external face of said collar when said connection means is connected to said collar.

  • Publication number: 20140012204
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a drug delivery device comprising, a reservoir for containing a product, said reservoir having a distally projecting end-piece having a longitudinal axis A and defining a channel providing a passageway for the transfer of the product from the reservoir, an adaptor having a collar engageable with said end-piece, securing means for blocking said collar in the distal direction with respect to said end-piece once said collar is engaged around said end-piece, anti-rotation means for preventing the rotation of said collar with respect to said end-piece around said longitudinal axis A under the effect of a turning torque applied to said collar once said collar is engaged around said end-piece, deactivating means for neutralizing said anti-rotation means once said turning torque has reached a predetermined value, thereby allowing the rotation of said collar with respect to said end. The invention also relates to such an adaptor.

  • Publication number: 20100167239
    Abstract: An impression device includes an impression taking-cap (6) designed for adapting on an implant (1) or the like along one prosthetic bearing surface formed by a mount (2) and an annular peripheral shoulder (4). The impression taking-cap (6) includes an annular bearing surface (1) bearing on the annular peripheral shoulder (4) when placed in the mouth. The impression taking-cap (6) is maintained in this position by a retaining peg (13) extending axially from the bottom surface (8) in an inner chamber (9) and capable of axial engagement by friction in a retaining female geometry (2b) provided at the end of the mount (2). It is thus possible to insure an axial fixation of the impression taking-cap (6) on the implant (1) or the like and thus a very reliable impression taking of the annular peripheral shoulder (4), which results in the peripheral tightness of the prosthesis on the implant (1).
