  • Publication number: 20240091440
    Abstract: A drug delivery device for delivering a medicament includes a housing, a pump, drive component, an inlet fluid path, an outlet fluid path, an inlet pressure sensor, an outlet pressure sensor, and a controller. The pump is coupled with the housing. The drive component is for driving the pump. The inlet fluid path is configured to deliver medicament to the pump. The outlet fluid path is configured to receive medicament from the pump. The inlet pressure sensor is positioned along the inlet fluid path and configured to measure inlet fluid pressure. The outlet pressure sensor is positioned along the outlet fluid path and configured to measure outlet fluid pressure. The controller is workingly coupled with the inlet pressure sensor, the outlet pressure sensor, and the drive component, wherein the controller is configured to adjust at least one parameter of the drive component based on input information received from the inlet pressure sensor and/or the outlet pressure sensor.

  • Publication number: 20220401643
    Abstract: A drug delivery device includes a drug product container, a pressurized vessel, and an urging member. The drug product container can have at least one flexible wall and defining a cavity configured to contain a drug product. The pressurized vessel can contain a gas under pressure. And the urging member is in working connection with the pressurized vessel such that, upon at least partial release of the gas under pressure, the urging member moves from a first portion of the drug product container to a second portion, thereby ejecting at least a portion of the drug product from the drug product container.

  • Publication number: 20220387702
    Abstract: A drug delivery device is provided that includes a housing, a fluid displacement assembly at least partially supported by and/or surrounded by the housing, and a drive component at least partially supported by and/or surrounded by the housing. The fluid displacement assembly includes a ring tube portion. The drive component includes an eccentric component having a contact surface configured to directly or indirectly apply a compression force to a compression patch of the ring tube portion such that when the eccentric component rotates about an axis, the contact surface moves along generally circular path and drives the medicament through the fluid displacement assembly. The compression force between the contact surface and the ring tube portion is preferably substantially constant throughout a complete revolution about the axis by the eccentric component.
