  • Publication number: 20240009383
    Abstract: A metering pump for a medical injector includes a housing, a sleeve at least partially received within the housing, a piston at least partially received within the sleeve, and an interlock. The piston has a first position where the chamber has a first volume and a second position where the chamber has a second volume, with the first volume larger than the second volume. The sleeve has a first rotational position where an inlet is in fluid communication with the chamber, a second rotational position where an outlet is in fluid communication with the chamber, and a third rotational position where the inlet and outlet are isolated from the chamber. The interlock includes an elastomeric member and a protrusion, where engagement between the elastomeric member and the protrusion is configured to restrict movement of the sleeve until the sleeve overcomes a predetermined torque value.

  • Publication number: 20220211935
    Abstract: A needle hub for a drug delivery device includes an applicator having a needle holder, a needle attached to the needle holder, a needle retraction spring, and an activation button, and a hub body including a cannula holder, a cannula attached to the cannula holder, a cannula withdrawal button, and a cannula retraction spring. At least a portion of the hub body is configured to be received within the applicator, with the applicator configured to be separated from the hub body. Movement of the activation button is configured to move the needle holder and the cannula holder from a retracted position to an insertion position. The cannula withdrawal button locks the cannula holder in the insertion position against a biasing force of the cannula retraction spring when the cannula holder is moved from the retracted position to the insertion position.

  • Publication number: 20220211952
    Abstract: A needle hub for a drug delivery device includes a hub body, an activation button, a needle holder moveable relative to the hub body, a needle attached to the needle holder, a needle spring biasing the needle holder to a retracted position where the needle is positioned within the hub body, a cannula holder moveable relative to the hub body and the needle holder, a cannula attached to the cannula holder, with the cannula configured to be in fluid communication with a fluid source, and a cannula spring biasing the cannula holder to a retracted position. Movement of a portion of the hub body is configured to disengage a connection between the cannula holder and the hub body to allow the cannula holder to return to the retracted position.

  • Publication number: 20220211939
    Abstract: A needle hub for a drug delivery device includes a hub body, an activation button, a needle holder and a needle attached to the needle holder, a cannula holder and a cannula attached to the catheter holder, a needle actuation mechanism configured to move the needle holder and the cannula holder from a retracted position to an insertion position and configured to move the needle holder back to the retracted position, and a cannula spring biasing the catheter holder to a retracted position. Movement of the activation button is configured to cause the needle holder and the catheter holder to move from the retracted position to the insertion position, with the needle holder configured to return to the retracted position while the catheter holder remains in the insertion position.

  • Publication number: 20220211936
    Abstract: A needle hub for a drug delivery device includes a needle holder and a needle attached to the needle holder, a needle actuation assembly configured to move the needle holder from a retracted position, to an insertion position, and back to the retracted position, and a pressure interlock comprising an inlet configured to be in fluid communication with a fluid source, an outlet in fluid communication with the needle, and a lock member. The lock member having a first position where the lock member prevents actuation of the needle actuation assembly and a second position where the lock member allows actuation of the needle actuation assembly. The lock member is moved from the first position to the second position based on a pressure within the pressure interlock.
