Abstract: Described is a needle safety device comprising a needle hub having a radial protrusion, a needle coupled to the needle hub and having a distal tip, and an inner sleeve telescopically coupled to the needle hub. The inner sleeve includes a first track adapted to engage the radial protrusion. The first track includes an axial section and a radial section. When the inner sleeve is in a first advanced position (PA1) and a first angular position (P1) relative to the needle hub, the radial protrusion is engaged in the first track and the distal tip is covered. When the inner sleeve is in a retracted position (PR) relative to the needle hub, the radial protrusion is in the axial section and the distal tip is exposed. When the inner sleeve is in a second advanced position (PA2) relative to the needle hub and a second angular position (P2), the radial protrusion is in the radial section and the distal tip is covered.

Abstract: Described is a needle safety device comprising a needle hub, a needle coupled to the needle hub and having a distal tip; a needle shield telescopically coupled to the needle hub, the needle shield, a locking element including latch arms adapted to engage the needle hub and engagement elements adapted to engage the needle shield. When the needle shield is in a first axial position (PA1) relative to the needle hub, the needle shield covers the distal tip of the needle and the engagement elements of the locking element engage the needle shield. When the needle shield is in a second axial position (PA2) relative to the needle hub, the needle shield is retracted to expose the distal tip of the needle and the latch arms engage the needle hub. When the needle shield is in a third axial position (PA3) relative to the needle hub, the needle shield covers the distal tip of the needle and the engagement elements abut the needle shield to prevent proximal movement of the needle shield relative to the needle hub.

Abstract: Described is a needle safety device, comprising a support body having a first aperture adapted to allow passage of a needle, and a needle shield having a cover face and a distal face and a second aperture formed in the distal face adapted to allow passage of the needle. The needle shield is hingedly mounted on the support body and movable between a first angular position (P1) relative to the support body in which the cover face covers the first aperture and a second angular position relative to the support body in which the first aperture is aligned with the second aperture. When the needle shield is in the second angular position, the needle shield is movable between a first axial position relative to the support body in which the needle is within the support body and a second axial position relative to the support body in which the needle passes through the first aperture and the second aperture.

Abstract: Described is a needle safety device comprising a needle hub having an inner surface with a bearing element, a needle coupled to the needle hub and having a distal tip, a needle shield telescopically coupled to the needle hub. The needle shield comprises an outer sleeve coupled to an inner sleeve by a biasing element. In a first axial position (PA1), the needle shield covers the distal tip of the needle. In a second axial position (PA2), the needle shield moves proximally relative to the needle hub to expose the distal tip of the needle, the outer sleeve locks to the needle hub and the biasing element deforms around the bearing element. In a third axial position (PA3), the biasing element expands, forcing the inner sleeve distally relative to the needle hub and covering the distal tip of the needle.

Abstract: Described is a safety needle device comprising a needle hub including a guide track, a needle coupled to the needle hub, and a needle shield telescopically coupled to the needle hub. The guide track includes a first axial section, a second axial section, and a locking section. The needle has a distal tip. The needle shield includes a radial protrusion adapted to engage the guide track. When the needle shield is in a first axial position and a first angular position relative to the needle hub, the radial protrusion is in the first axial section and the needle shield covers the distal tip of the needle. When the needle shield is in a second axial position and a second angular position, the radial protrusion is in the second axial section and the distal tip of the needle is exposed from the needle shield. When the needle shield is in a third axial position and a third angular position, the radial protrusion is adjacent the locking section and the needle shield covers the distal tip of the needle.

Abstract: Described is a package for a medicament delivery device having a needle shield covering a needle. The package comprises a base element including a storage compartment adapted to contain the delivery device, and a needle cap remover formed on the base element. The needle cap remover adapted to engage the needle shield.

Abstract: Described is a needle safety device comprising a needle hub adapted to couple to an injection device a needle coupled to the needle hub and having a distal tip, a needle shield telescopically coupled to the needle hub and including a biasing element, and a locking element arranged on the needle hub. When the needle shield is in a first axial position, the needle shield covers the distal tip of the needle. When the needle shield is in a second axial position, the needle shield moves proximally relative to the needle hub to expose the distal tip of the needle and the locking element deflects the biasing element. When the needle shield is in a third axial position, the locking element engages the biasing element and the needle shield covers the distal tip of the needle.

Abstract: An injection device for administering a liquid is presented that comprises a pre-filled syringe and a safety mechanism for providing needle safety for an injection needle of the pre-filled syringe. The pre-filled syringe comprises a barrel containing the liquid and a stopper translatably disposed within the barrel, where the injection needle attached to a distal end of the barrel.

Abstract: According to the invention, a safety device for a pre-filled syringe comprises a hollow support body to retain the pre-filled syringe therein, a hollow needle shield that is slidable relative to the support body and guiding means for guiding the movement of the needle shield relative to the support body. The guiding means comprise a guide pin, a guide track and a cut-out adjacent to the guide track. The guide pin protrudes into the guide track and moves within and along the guide track when the needle shield is slid relative to the support body. The cut-out allows a side wall of the guide track to be deflected in a lateral direction perpendicular to a central axis of the safety device.

Abstract: According to the invention, a safety device for a pre-filled syringe comprises of a needle shield adapted to cover an injection needle of the pre-filled syringe before and after an injection, a support body with at least one pivoting arm adapted to engage a barrel collar of the pre-filled syringe and an outer body with a first inner sleeve comprising a bevelled section. The needle shield, the support body and the outer body are telescopically arranged. The needle shield, the support body and the outer body may telescope with respect to each other to cover and to expose the injection needle of the pre-filled syringe. The bevelled section is arranged to abut against the pivoting arm connected to the support body by a living hinge to deflect the pivoting arm radially inwards, so that the pivoting arm may engage the barrel collar after a dose of a medicament contained in the pre-filled syringe has been disposed beneath the skin of a patient receiving the injection.

Abstract: According to the invention, a safety device for a pre-filled syringe with an injection needle comprises of a support body adapted to mount the pre-filled syringe, a needle shield slidably arranged with respect to the support body, a retention and locking means (M) for retaining and locking the needle shield with respect to the support body in a first and a second advanced position (PA1, PA2) and in a retracted position (PR). The needle shield comprises an annular flange adapted to rest on the skin of the patient receiving an injection. The retention and locking means (M) are arranged at a distal end of the safety device.
