Abstract: An injector device includes a housing having a slot with a locking portion and a needle unit that has a needle and a slot engagement portion that extends through the slot in the housing to an external side of the housing. The needle unit is movably mounted in the housing such that movement of the needle unit relative to the housing is restricted by the slot. The injector device also includes a cartridge that is mounted in the housing, the cartridge having a reservoir for medicament. Prior to use of the injector device, the reservoir is sealed from the needle. The slot in the housing is arranged such that the needle unit can be rotated to move the slot engagement portion out of the locking portion such that the needle unit can be moved into engagement with the cartridge to place the needle in fluid communication with the reservoir.

Abstract: An injector device comprising an elongate housing having a proximal end and a distal end, and configured to receive a container of medicament, a needle sleeve mounted within the housing and moveable between an extended position in which the needle sleeve at least partially extends from the distal end of the housing, and a retracted position in which the needle sleeve is received further within the housing than in the extended position, a piston rod moveable longitudinally within the housing, a piston spring configured to bias the piston rod towards a distal end of the housing to engage a container of medicament when received within the housing, and a release mechanism configured to control actuation of the piston rod.

Abstract: A beverage system for making a beverage based on ingredients in a capsule has a conveying carriage with a capsule carrier, a threaded spindle extending inside a housing of the beverage system and having a drive nut connected to the capsule carrier. A stop element is arranged on the threaded spindle at an ejection position for blocking movement of the drive nut along the threaded spindle. A motor rotates the threaded spindle in a first direction of rotation, in order to move the capsule carrier to a processing position, where a beverage is made based on the ingredients in a capsule; in order to move the capsule carrier further along the threaded spindle to an ejection position; and in order to rotate the capsule carrier at the ejection position about the threaded spindle to eject the capsule from the capsule carrier.

Abstract: A capsule for holding ingredients for the production of a beverage has a capsule body, which is at least partly covered on a top side of the capsule by a cover and which surrounds a first chamber for holding a first ingredient. In addition, the capsule has a chamber wall, which surrounds a channel-shaped cavity, which extends from the top side of the capsule to a bottom side of the capsule. The capsule further has a valve element, with which a first outlet opening of the first chamber can be opened at the chamber wall by a rod inserted into the cavity from the top side of the capsule, so that the ingredients can flow from the first chamber via the cavity and out of the capsule at the bottom side of the capsule.

Abstract: A beverage system for producing a beverage based on the contents of a capsule. A capsule support for accommodating a capsule and a dispensing unit for providing the beverage produced based on the contents of the capsule. The beverage system has a carbonizing source configured to provide a carbonizing gas in the beverage system, at least one liquid container for receiving a liquid, and at least one carbonizer configured to carbonize liquid from the liquid container using carbonizing gas from the carbonizing source. A liquid line is configured to conduct non-carbonized liquid directly from the liquid container to the capsule, and a liquid line is configured to conduct carbonized liquid from the carbonizer to the capsule.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a power-driven land, water or air vehicle for providing dialysis solution receptacles, in particular bags, filled with dialysis solution, with the vehicle having a tank for receiving dialysis solution or for receiving a component of a dialysis solution, a storage region for the dialysis solution receptacles to be filled, and a filling station that is in fluid communication with the tank and that is configured to fill the dialysis solution receptacles with dialysis solution or with a component of the dialysis solution.

Abstract: An injector device is configurable between a safe state and an operable state and comprises a housing having a distal end and a proximal end; a medicament cartridge disposed within the housing; a needle unit comprising a needle and being disposed in the distal end of the housing; a sleeve displaceable along a longitudinal axis of the device between a first position in which the sleeve conceals the needle and a second position in which the needle is exposed from an end of the sleeve; a locking mechanism configured to prevent displacement of the sleeve when the device is in the safe state; and a button disposed in the proximal end of the housing, the button being configured to switch the device between the safe state and the operable state by releasing the locking mechanism when the button is pressed from an initial position into a depressed position during use.
