Patent number: 12296147Abstract: A medicament delivery device is presented having a housing, a container assembly, a needle assembly and a driver assembly. The container assembly includes a medicament container having an interior containing a medicament. The needle assembly is connected to the container assembly and has a needle and an outer cap, wherein the outer cap is configured to be manually manipulated to move the needle toward the medicament container in order for a distal end of the needle to pierce a first seal and enter an interior of the medicament container. The driver assembly is disposed at a distal end of the medicament container and configured to be released and move the container assembly and the needle assembly toward the proximal end of the housing to an insertion position where a proximal end of the needle exits the housing.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2019Date of Patent: May 13, 2025Assignee: SHL Medical AGInventors: Thad Miley, Dane Kris

Publication number: 20220047814Abstract: A medicament delivery device is presented having a housing configured to accommodate a medicament container, a power pack arranged to exert a force on the medicament container to expel medicament, where the power pack has a plunger rod, a drive spring, an actuator configured to releasably hold the plunger rod with the drive spring in an energized state, an actuator sleeve configured to interact with the holding elements, where the actuator sleeve moves in a longitudinal direction in relation to the actuator. The delivery device also has a medicament delivery member guard movable in the longitudinal direction and connected to the actuator sleeve, an activator arranged at a distal end of the housing and operably connected to the actuator to release the plunger rod. A locking arrangement that releasably locks the actuator to the actuator sleeve is also present.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2019Publication date: February 17, 2022Inventor: Dane Kris

Patent number: 11110230Abstract: A needle shield remover is presented having a generally tubular body with a longitudinal extension and a number of grip elements arranged at a distal area of the body, where the grip elements extend radially inwards from a circumference of the body. At least one longitudinally extending cut-out in the body and adjacent to the grip elements engage an outer surface of a needle shield when the needle shield remover is pushed onto the needle shield, where the at least one cut-out enables a generally radial outwardly bias of the grip elements during the pushing action to facilitate mounting of the needle shield remover on the needle shield.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2018Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: SHL MEDICAL AGInventors: Brian Maxfield, Jason Frost, Dane Kris
