Abstract: The present specification relates to a drug delivery device including a housing adapted to receive a primary container with a piston, a plunger slidably disposed in the housing and adapted to drive the piston for delivering a medicament, a drive spring pre-loaded between the housing and the plunger so as to urge the plunger in a distal direction, an audible and/or tactile indicator, and a trigger mechanism arranged between the indicator and the plunger. The trigger mechanism is configured to support the indicator in an initial state of the device and during delivery of the medicament and to couple with the plunger to activate the audible and/or tactile indicator at or near an end of delivery.

Abstract: The present specification relates to a plunger configured to transmit a force from an energy source to a piston of a primary container, the plunger comprising a plunger rod configured to be subjected to the force from the energy source, the plunger rod having an inner surface forming a cavity, wherein a support element adapted to constrain the energy source within the cavity protrudes radially inwards from the inner surface into the cavity.

Abstract: A drug delivery device comprises a housing adapted to receive a medicament container, a plunger and a plunger release mechanism that comprises a first plunger boss arranged on the plunger, a profiled slot arranged on the housing and adapted to be engaged by the first plunger boss so as to inhibit movement of the plunger in a distal direction. The plunger is rotatable about a longitudinal axis to release the first plunger boss from the profiled slot so as to allow movement of the plunger in the distal direction. A sleeve is coupled to the housing to permit movement of the sleeve relative to the housing. A sleeve ramp is arranged on the sleeve and adapted to engage a rib or boss on the plunger to rotate the plunger to release the first plunger boss from the profiled slot when the sleeve is moved in a proximal direction.
