Publication number: 20220313921Abstract: Automatic injection device includes a housing, a syringe, a plunger, and a syringe carrier. The housing includes a barrel between a first end and a second end. The barrel includes an elongated window to allow viewing of contents inside the housing. The syringe is disposed within the housing and has a reservoir. The plunger is at least partially disposed within the syringe and includes a visual indicator. The syringe carrier is disposed within the housing and configured to contain the syringe and displace the syringe within the housing between a first position and a second position. The syringe carrier can be substantially transparent. The syringe carrier can have first and second legs and an extension disposed therebetween, and at least a portion of the extension can be configured to align with the window and the reservoir when the syringe carrier is in the first position.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2021Publication date: October 6, 2022Inventors: Sherwin S. Shang, Eduard N. Tsvirko, Edwin Chim, Shubha Chethan Somashekar, Esra Ozdaryal, Joseph F. Julian, Chuan Li

Publication number: 20220088309Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are disclosed for facilitating injection of a medicament using an automatic injection device. The automatic injection device includes a housing defining a confined inner space and having a length extending from a proximal end to a distal end along a longitudinal axis. A helical biasing member, or spring, is disposed in the confined inner space, and the spring has an inner diameter at a middle portion that is greater than an inner diameter at the terminal ends of the spring. A syringe plunger has a second bifurcated end extending into an inner bore of the spring. The bifurcated end includes two flexible arms that are able to flex inwardly and outwardly relative to the longitudinal axis within the inner bore of the spring while maintaining an annular gap between the syringe plunger and the spring.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2021Publication date: March 24, 2022Inventors: Sherwin S. Shang, Esra Ozdaryal, Eduard N. Tsvirko, Edwin Chim, David A. Post, William P. Szechinski, Shubha Chethan Somashekar, Ryan Brumund
