  • Patent number: 11998328
    Abstract: A medical device for transcutaneously inserting an insertable element into a body tissue. The medical device includes an insertable element and an insertion cannula for subcutaneously inserting the insertable element. The insertable element includes an in vivo distal end for subcutaneous insertion and an ex vivo proximal end. The insertion cannula has a lumen configured to receive the insertable element that is fully or partially enclosed by a wall of the insertion cannula. The wall comprises at least one shape memory alloy wherein the insertion cannula is stored in a first shape configuration and is configured to be transformable into a second shape configuration for insertion.

  • Patent number: 11547796
    Abstract: An inventive medical device for transcutaneously inserting a cannula into body tissue. The device has a cannula with a wall that at least partially encloses a lumen. The device also has a patch for mounting onto skin of a user. The patch has a base and has a reservoir for storing a medical fluid. The patch also has a spring driven inserter. The inserter has a drive that urges the cannula from a storage position within the patch to an inserted position within the body tissue. The inserter also has a lock configured for securing the drive in a fixed position. The lock is fixedly connected to the drive and has a snap closure. Also disclosed is a medication pump that is fluidly connectable to the cannula. A method of transcutaneously using the medical device to transcutaneously insert a cannula into body tissue is also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20170055675
    Abstract: A method, a dosing device and a system for manufacturing of a lipstick mine out of at least two pasty substances are described. The method comprises inserting of a first end portion of a dosing device into a form whereby the first end portion of the dosing device comprises at least one outlet nozzle, filling of the first end portion of the dosing device with a first pasty substance, increasing of the gas pressure in the first end portion of the dosing device whereby the first pasty substance through the pressure is pressed out of the at least one outlet nozzle, removing the first end portion of the dosing device out of the form and filling up the form with a second pasty substance.

  • Publication number: 20060285987
    Abstract: A miniaturized device for pressurizing fluid. The device includes a hollow piston that provides a fluid path and a valve member. The valve member is configured for axial movement so that the valve axis remains parallel to the piston axis. The valve member is arranged at one end of the hollow piston. The valve member may be partially or completely disposed within the hollow piston. The device is particularly adapted for use in a mechanically operated atomizer to produce an inhalable aerosol of a liquid medicament without the use of propellant gas.

  • Patent number: 6918547
    Abstract: A miniaturized device for producing high pressure in a fluid imposes stringent requirements on the manufacturing process. The device according to the invention consists of a hollow piston displaceably mounted in a cylinder and a valve member which is guided by the hollow piston and mounted so as to be axially movable relative to the hollow piston. The valve member is arranged at one end of the hollow piston inside or immediately in front of the end of the hollow piston. The device is used in a mechanically operated high pressure atomizer. This consists of a two part housing which comprises a pump housing with nozzle, a blocking mechanism, a spring housing with spring, a non-pressurized storage container for the fluid and a medical counter integrated in the spring housing. The valve operates without any auxiliary force, closes very rapidly and is sealed tight against high pressure. The atomizer is safe and simple to operate and environmentally friendly. The fluid is metered extremely accurately.
