Patent number: 9205196Abstract: A method of preventing setting a dose which exceeds an amount of medication contained in a medication receptacle of a medication delivery device. The device comprising a piston rod comprising a second stop element, a drive device for moving the piston rod, and a dose setting member for setting a dose. The method comprising the steps of moving a dose limiting member which comprises a first stop element axially with respect to the piston rod during dose setting, and utilizing the first and second stop elements to stop an axial movement of the dose limiting member in the proximal direction when the first and second stop elements catch, limiting a movement of the dose setting member for increasing a set dose of medication. The dose limiting member and the piston rod only interact directly, when the first and second stop elements catch.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2013Date of Patent: December 8, 2015Assignee: Sanofi-Aventis Deutschland GmbHInventors: Michael Harms, James Roberts Howarth, Robin Craig Cocker, George Richard Gregory, Anthony Raymond Caharpentier, Michael Strehl, Udo Leuschner, Norbert Besenhardt
