  • Patent number: 10179214
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for injection of a product into an injection site. The device including a needle shield for protection of a needle prior to use of the device; a housing; and a deshielder for removing the needle shield from the device. The deshielder is coupled to the needle shield and mounted on the housing in a separable manner. The deshielder may include tamper evidence features that are activated by the removal of at least one part of said deshielder. At least one part of the deshielder may be configured to be removed from the housing by exerting a force equal or less to 30 N.

  • Patent number: 9486582
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an injection device including a container, intended for receiving a product and provided with an injection needle and a housing receiving the container. The container is movable relative to the housing between an initial position, an insertion position, and a final position. A collapsible chamber is defined within the housing outside of the container. The chamber is collapsible with the container in the insertion position. The chamber is at least partially defined by a proximal wall and a seal element, wherein, with the container in the initial position, the proximal wall is spaced proximally from the seal element, wherein, with the container in the insertion position, the proximal wall is caused to engage the seal element, and, wherein, with the proximal wall engaging the seal element, the container is caused to move from the insertion position to the final position.

  • Patent number: 9242050
    Abstract: The invention relates to an automatic injection device including a container provided with a needle; a housing receiving a container movable relative to the housing between an initial position to an insertion position; a needle shield for receiving the needle and in which the needle is embedded prior to use of the device; and a deshielder coupled to the needle shield by a first connecting arrangement and removably assembled to the distal part of the housing by a second connecting arrangement. The first and second connecting arrangements are designed so that a rotational movement of the deshielder about the device axis of the device with respect to the housing causes an axial displacement of the needle shield in the distal direction with substantially no rotational movement of the needle shield with respect to the needle.
