Abstract: The invention relates to a device for opening an ampoule (3), said device comprising a substantially hollow cylindrical housing (11) having an interior for accommodating an ampoule (3). The device also comprises a rotary element (12) having a proximal section (121), to which a break-off section (124) extending in the distal direction is connected. The break-off section (124) is flexible in the radial direction and/or is pivotably connected to the proximal section (121) in the radial direction. The rotary element (12) can be rotated relative to the housing (11) about the longitudinal axis in an actuating direction from an initial position to an intermediate position.

Abstract: An attachment part with a coupling part by means of which coupling part the attachment part can be attached to a dispensing unit. The coupling part has a female cone area, with a continuous inlet opening, and a locking structure arranged around the female cone area. The female cone area can be pushed onto a male cone area of the dispensing unit, in order thereby to connect the attachment part to the dispensing unit. The locking structure serves to secure the attachment part on the dispensing unit. The first coupling part additionally has a rotation element, which is rotatable concentrically about the female cone area and on which the first locking structure is formed. The rotation element has an actuating element, which serves to rotate the rotation element relative to the female cone area.

Abstract: The invention relates to a syringe-like mixing device, comprising a housing, in which a mixing chamber is formed, a piston, which can be slid in the mixing chamber from the proximal side, and a mixing element, which can be operated from the distal side. In order to ensure simple operation, the mixing device has a sealing cap, which seals the distal open end of the mixing chamber and which has a passage opening, through which an operating rod for the mixing element is guided. The sealing cap can be completely removed from the housing together with the operating rod and the mixing element. In order to discharge the mixing product, a second sealing cap can be placed onto the housing. Accessory parts can be connected to said second sealing cap. The mixing product can then be discharged as with a conventional injection syringe.

The filling Device comprises a container holder (310) with a holding area (320) on which a container (330) is held. The applicator is mounted-along a securing direction on an applicator holder (200). In order to permit the greatest possible flexibility in the choice of the container, the Container holder (310) can be connected to the applicator holder (200) along a connecting direction that runs transversely with respect to the securing direction for the applicator.

Abstract: The invention relates to a discharge device for discharging a fluid product, for example, in the form of a syringe. The discharge device comprises a housing (1), which bounds a reservoir (16), and a piston (23), which is slidably arranged in the housing (1) in a longitudinal direction in order to discharge the fluid product distally from the reservoir (16) through an outlet opening (13). A window opening (15) is formed in a circumferential side wall (11) of the housing (1). An insert element (3) is inserted into said window opening (15) perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction. The insert element (3) protrudes into the reservoir (16). In this way, a motion of the piston (23) can be limited in the proximal direction in order to prevent the piston (23) from falling out, and the metering of the fluid product can be made easier in that the insert element (3) establishes a detachable locking connection with an advancing element (27) for the piston (23).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for removing a fluid from at least one container (300), from a vial for example, said container being closed by a closure (320) that can be punctured. The device comprises a base body (271) with a container receiving portion (272) and a hollow needle-like puncturing organ (277) in order to puncture the closure (320) of the container (300) in a removal position of the container (300). The aim of the invention is to enable mounting the container on the device without unintentionally puncturing the closure. This is achieved in that detent structures (274, 275) are provided which retain the container (300) on the device in a removal position and in a mounting position which is different from said removal position. Such a device can be used in particular to fill an applicator (280) with one or more fluid reservoirs from one or more vitals.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for removing a fluid from at least one container (300), for example, from a vial, that has a seal that can be punctured. The device comprises a base body (210), in which a fluid channel is formed. In order to reduce the lost volume, a pin-shaped insertion element (250) that reduces the cross-section of the fluid channel is inserted into the fluid channel through an insertion opening. Locking structures (262, 263) that retain the container on the device in a removal position and in a storage position different therefrom can be provided so that the container can be stored on the device without the seal being punctured accidentally. Such a device can be used in particular to fill an applicator (100) having one or more fluid reservoirs from one or more vials.
