  • Publication number: 20230149629
    Abstract: An injection device (10) comprises an injection solution receptacle (30) and a plunger (70) at feast a portion of which is slidably received in the injection solution receptacle (30), wherein the plunger (70) is displaceable relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) in a distal direction in order to expel an injection solution contained in the injection solution receptacle (30) from the injection solution receptacle (30). A first plunger stop mechanism (140) is adapted to stop a displacement of the plunger (70) relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) in the distal direction at a first dosing position (P1).

  • Publication number: 20230052782
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an injection device, in particular a micro dose injection device such as, for example, an ophthalmic injection device. An example device comprises a rotatable plunger; a solution receptacle having a first end configured to slidably receive the rotatable plunger and a second end configured to dispense solution contained in the solution receptacle; a first stop member configured to prevent the rotatable plunger from being slidably displaced to a second position while the rotatable plunger is at a first position and in a first orientation; and a second stop member configured to prevent the rotatable plunger from rotating in a first direction about the first axis while the rotatable plunger is at the first position and in the first orientation, wherein slidably displacing the rotatable plunger from the first position to the second position dispenses a quantity of the solution contained in the solution receptacle.

  • Patent number: 11554215
    Abstract: An injection device (10) comprises an injection solution receptacle (30) and a plunger (70) at least a portion of which is slidably received in the injection solution receptacle (30), wherein the plunger (70) is displaceable relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) in a distal direction in order to expel an injection solution contained in the injection solution receptacle (30) from the injection solution receptacle (30). A first plunger stop mechanism (140) is adapted to stop a displacement of the plunger (70) relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) in the distal direction at a first dosing position (P1).

  • Publication number: 20120226240
    Abstract: A syringe (2) for dispensing a fluid, the syringe including a barrel (4) including a discharge end (10) defining a discharge passage, and a plunger (15) disposed within the barrel, the plunger being adapted to move within the barrel such that the plunger and discharge end define a variable volume chamber within the barrel and the plunger is capable of displacing fluid from the chamber through the discharge passage; wherein the syringe includes a rotational element (20a, 20b, 24a, 24b) adapted to rotate about longitudinal axis of the syringe and which has a first axial orientation relative to the discharge end of the barrel and a first stop is provided on the plunger and/or the barrel which is adapted to limit axial movement of the plunger in the first orientation of the rotational element, and the rotational element has a second axial orientation relative to the discharge end of the barrel in which the first stop is disengaged and movement of the plunger is permitted to a second stop.
