Abstract: The invention relates to an injection device for injecting doses of a liquid drug, which comprises an immobilization mechanism such that the further use of the injection device is immobilized in response to the needle cannula (20) being exposed to an axial force above a predetermined value: the immobilization mechanism comprises a flexible arm (50) which apply a radial force onto the needle cannula at least during injection.

Abstract: The invention relates to a needle cannula having a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen there between. The needle cannula is provided with a sharp point formed in a three-facet grinding. The first ground facet is of elliptic shape and grinded symmetrically around a central axis, and the second and third ground facet are grinded substantially symmetrically on opposite sides of the first ground facet such that the second and third ground facet converge to form the distal needle tip. The length of each of the substantially identical second and third ground facet measured along the central axis is less than half, and preferably less than one third, of the length of the first ground facet measured along the central axis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and devices for providing a reduced risk of free flow from medical devices such as an infusion pump. A medicament containing reservoir is provided with a piston having a sealing portion formed by a material of a first stiffness. The piston further comprises a frictional enhancing member having one or more reservoir wall engaging portions and being at least partly made of a material having a stiffness greater than the first stiffness. By arranging the frictional enhancing member to exert a radially outwards directed force component against the cylindrical wall an increased friction is provided between the piston and the reservoir wall.

Abstract: The present application relates to methods and devices for providing a reduced risk of free flow from medical devices such as an infusion pump. A medicament containing reservoir (100) is provided with a piston having a sealing portion (121) formed by a material of a first stiffness. The piston further comprises a core member (110) of a material having a stiffness larger than said first stiffness, the core member comprising one or more connective members (111) being adapted to cooperate with said one or more protrusions of the linear actuation member. The one or more connective members being adapted to be substantially rigid in the axial direction while being resilient in a radial direction, thereby forming a releasable snap or friction fit connection with the linear actuation member.
