  • Injection Apparatus and Method
    Publication number: 20260207841
    Abstract: An on-body medical fluid injection device includes an injection needle movable between a retracted position within the device housing and an injection position extending from the housing. An actuator moves the needle between the retracted position and the injection position. A resilient bladder within the housing contains medical fluid for injection through the needle when it is the injection position. An end of delivery member is located within the housing and biased for movement from a first position towards a second position. When in the first position, the end of delivery member is cooperatively associated with the actuator to retain the injection needle in the injection position. When in the second position, the end of delivery member allows the actuator to move the injection needle to the retracted position providing an end of delivery indication. The injection device also features a premature lockout prevention system.
