Publication number: 20200360595Abstract: The invention relates to a medical injection device having a needle cannula for multiple use and which needle cannula is cleaned between subsequent injections. The needle cannula is preferably cleaned at the distal tip in a cleaning assembly having a hollow cleaning chamber with a variable volume. The distal tip of the needle cannula is maintained inside the cleaning chamber between subsequent injections. The cleaning chamber is defined by an inner surface, a distal seal and a proximal seal. In order to increase the volume of the cleaning chamber during filling of the cleaning chamber one of the seals is formed as a movable plunger which is movable in one direction to expand the volume of the cleaning chamber. To release the movable plunger from the inner surface of the hollow cleaning chamber in order to commence the filling of the cleaning chamber, the movable plunger and the inner wall surface of the hollow cleaning chamber are rotatable in relation to each other during filling of the cleaning chamber.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2018Publication date: November 19, 2020Inventors: Simon Munch Pedersen, Bo Radmer

Publication number: 20200297918Abstract: The invention relates to a medical injection device for injection of a liquid drug. The injection device comprises a housing structure with a cartridge and needle cannula. Further an axially movable cleaning reservoir is provided which is movable in relation to the housing structure, and which cleaning reservoir contains a liquid cleaning agent. The distal tip of the needle cannula is positioned and thus cleaned inside the cleaning reservoir between subsequent injections. According to the invention, the cleaning reservoir connects to an overflow reservoir through a one-way pressure valve such that the cleaning agent and/or air is flowable from the cleaning reservoir and into the overflow reservoir.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2018Publication date: September 24, 2020Inventors: Bo Radmer, Lars Eilertsen, Bjoern Gullak Larsen, Nikolaj Thorsoe Kronborg

Patent number: 10773029Abstract: The invention relates to a prefilled injection pen for apportioning multiple set doses of a liquid drug. The injection pen comprises a housing assembly with a removable cap rotatable coupled to the housing assembly such that the user has to rotate the removable cap upon mounting and dismounting the removable cap. Rotation of the removable cap initiates a process in which the proximal end of a needle cannula is first inserted into a cartridge permanently embedded in the housing assembly and thereafter moves the cartridge proximally to thereby pump a predetermined amount of the preservative containing liquid drug from the cartridge and into a cleaning chamber carried by an axially movable shield. The needle cannula is mounted in a needle hub which is arranged to follow rotation of the removable cap and guided helically in relation to the housing assembly such that the needle hub is moved proximally upon rotation of the removable cap.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2017Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Simon Munch Pedersen, Lars Eilertsen, Morten Revsgaard Frederiksen, Ruben Archilla, Mattias Ingerslev, Bo Radmer, Rasmus Kann Jensen, Kurt Solgaard

Publication number: 20190282762Abstract: An injection device with a dose delivering mechanism being adapted to provide a non-visual, e.g. audible and/or tactile, feedback signal when a set dose has been at least substantially injected. A first and a second part of the injection device are adapted to perform a relative rotational movement with respect to each other. The relative rotational movement causes at least two parts of the injection device to abut or engage, and this abutment or engagement causes the non-visual feedback signal to be generated. A very distinct and precise feedback is provided as compared to prior art axial solutions because the generation of the feedback signal is initiated by the relative rotational movement. Feedback signal may be generated by a change in a rotational velocity of at least one part, e.g. by changing the pitch of a threaded portion or by engaging a non-rotating part and a rotating part, thereby causing the non-rotating part to start rotating.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 6, 2019Publication date: September 19, 2019Inventors: Claus Schmidt Moller, Bo Radmer, Lars Ulrik Nielsen, Christian Peter Enggaard

Patent number: 10332699Abstract: An electronically controlled add-on device with a switch arrangement comprises a powered switch which is open during most of its lifetime, i.e. during both storage and operational use. More specifically, in one embodiment the add-on device comprises a secondary switch so that there are an open and a closed switch. The logics of the electronic circuitry control the circuitry so that the closed switch will be un-powered and the open switch will be powered. When the switch is mechanically changed, both switches are changed by the controller so that the closed switch will be un-powered and the open switch will be powered.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2016Date of Patent: June 25, 2019Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Bo Radmer, Sara Niemann, Nikolai Byskov, Carsten Soerensen, Michael Ejstrup Hansen, Roger Harrington

Patent number: 9855391Abstract: The invention concerns an injection device for apportioning set doses of a drug from a reservoir to a subject. The injection device comprises a housing having an interior thread formed as an outwardly pointing thread carried on an upstanding tower centrally located in the injection device. The outwardly pointing thread forms a first thread connection with an interior thread of a rotatable scale drum. The injection device further comprises a driver for moving a piston rod forward when moved axially. The driver operates the piston rod through a second thread connection having a pitch different than the first thread connection.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2013Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Bo Radmer, Claus Schmidt Moeller, Lars Moerch Groth, Klaus Thogersen

Patent number: 9833579Abstract: The present invention relates to medicament injection devices (100). A cartridge (600) with a septum and a needle unit (500) having front and rear needles (510, 520) are configured for relative movement from a state where the septum is sealed to a state where the septum is pierced by the rear needle (520). The injection device (100) may include a needle shield (350) and be configured for piercing the septum by the rear needle (520) when the front needle (510) is operated relative to the needle shield (350). The injection device (100) may also include a damping mechanism configured for limiting the speed of movement of the cartridge relative to the needle unit. The injection device (100) may also include an indicator generating a signal when a piston driver has travelled the complete stroke length, wherein the indicator has a deflection element that is deflected prior to or during movement of the cartridge relative to the housing.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2011Date of Patent: December 5, 2017Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Simon Munch Pedersen, Bo Radmer, Jesper Peter Windum, Soeren Dyring Jensen, Christian Plambech, Christian Hoejris Nielsen
