Abstract: A system for delivering fluid to a user transcutaneously includes a subcutaneous infusion cannula base assembly, a cannula inserter assembly and a fluid connection assembly. The subcutaneous infusion cannula base assembly is configured to be located on the user's skin. The cannula inserter assembly is coupled to the cannula base assembly and is configured to drive an infusion cannula through the user's skin in a nominally helical trajectory. The fluid connection assembly is configured to fluidically connect the cannula base assembly to a source of delivery fluid. Cannula and stylet assemblies configured for helical or non-helical insertion are also disclosed.

Abstract: A system for delivering fluid to a user transcutaneously includes a torsion spring, a drive wheel, a linear slide having a stylet attached thereto, and a cannula. The torsion spring, when actuated, is configured to rotate the drive wheel to cause the linear slide to move axially to drive the stylet and cannula into a user-s skin.
