  • Publication number: 20230166046
    Abstract: A drive mechanism for a delivery device is presented containing, a rotator having an outer surface and an inner surface, the rotator configured to rotate from a first position to a second position. A needle cover having an inner surface that engages the outer surface of the rotator. A rotatable plunger rod having an outer surface configured to engage the inner surface of the rotator. When the rotator rotates from the first position to the second position, the rotatable plunger rod is rotated by the rotator and a plunger rod spring is released from a pre-tensioned state to exert a force on the rotatable plunger rod.

  • Publication number: 20220401649
    Abstract: A medicament delivery device is presented having a housing, a delivery member cover slidably arranged in the housing, a medicament container housing arranged in the housing, a forward-biased rotator structure configured to move the medicament container housing in a forward direction in the housing, wherein the delivery member cover is configured to be moved axially from an extended position relative to the housing to a retracted position, thereby causing the rotator structure to rotate from a first rotator position to a second rotator position, and a forward-biased plunger rod extending axially inside the rotator structure and having a first axial engagement position with the rotator structure when the rotator structure is in the first rotator position and the second rotator position, the rotator structure having a first rotator guide track structure configured to cooperate with an inner surface structure of the housing.

  • Patent number: 11318259
    Abstract: A needle shield remover is presented having a generally tubular body with a longitudinal extension and a grip element composed of a braided sleeve arranged to the tubular body, where the braided sleeve has an opening of such a diameter that a needle shield may be introduced, where the diameter narrows such that a friction fit is created between the braided sleeve and the needle shield when said needle shield is pulled for removing the needle shield.

  • Patent number: 11110230
    Abstract: A needle shield remover is presented having a generally tubular body with a longitudinal extension and a number of grip elements arranged at a distal area of the body, where the grip elements extend radially inwards from a circumference of the body. At least one longitudinally extending cut-out in the body and adjacent to the grip elements engage an outer surface of a needle shield when the needle shield remover is pushed onto the needle shield, where the at least one cut-out enables a generally radial outwardly bias of the grip elements during the pushing action to facilitate mounting of the needle shield remover on the needle shield.

  • Publication number: 20210220565
    Abstract: A needle shield remover for assembly with a cap of a medicament delivery device is presented, having a remover body with a proximal end and a distal end, and at least one first shield gripping member, and at least one second shield gripping member, where the first shield gripping member and the second shield gripping member configured to engage the needle shield. The first shield gripping member and the second shield gripping member are arranged offset in relation to each other both in the longitudinal direction and along the circumference surface of the remover body.

  • Patent number: 11065390
    Abstract: A drive mechanism for a delivery device comprising a rotator comprising an outer surface and an inner surface, the rotator configured to rotate from a first position to a second position; and a needle cover comprising an inner surface that engages the outer surface of the rotator. An end of injection indication device is positioned at least partially within a plunger rod spring, the end of injection indication device providing a signal to a user of the drive mechanism that an injection has been completed.
