Abstract: A training device for training a user on the operation of an auto-injector that dispenses a medicament. A needle guard is slidable from a first extended position relative to a housing prior to operation of the training device, to a retracted position during operation of the training device, and to a second extended position after operation of the training device. An actuation assembly controls the movement of the needle guard from the retracted position to the second extended position. A lock locks the needle guard in the second extended position. A safety is proximate a proximal end of the housing and prevents movement of the needle guard from the first extended position to the retracted position in a storage position. The needle guard is moveable into the retracted position with the safety in an armed position. The safety resets the lock upon returning the safety to the storage position.

Abstract: A push button safety injector includes a housing having a proximal end, a distal end spaced from the proximal end, and a longitudinal axis. An injection ram is positioned along the longitudinal axis and configured to actuate a fluid chamber. The injection ram is biased toward the distal end in an initial position. A sliding member is configured to retain the injection ram in the initial position. A safety member confines radial movement of the sliding member in the initial position and allows radial movement of the sliding member in an armed position. A button is moveable between an initial extended position and a depressed position. The button is engagable with the sliding member and configured to move the sliding member radially in the armed position. The sliding member releases the injection ram when the button is in the depressed position.

A button is moveable between an initial extended position and a depressed position. The button is engagable with the sliding member and configured to move the sliding member radially in the armed position. The sliding member releases the injection ram when the button is in the depressed position.

Abstract: A needle shield comprises an elastomeric sheath having a closed distal end and an open proximal end. The distal end is configured to form a first seal with a distal tip of a needle in an initial position. The proximal end is configured to form a second seal with a syringe body in the initial position. The second seal is configured to release from the syringe body prior to the first seal releasing from the needle when the elastomeric sheath is moved distally from the syringe.

Abstract: A safety member for use with an injection device is disclosed. The safety member includes a blocking ring extending into a housing of the injection device in blocking association with a latch member associated with a trigger mechanism of the injector, in which the blocking ring blocks movement of a portion of the trigger mechanism into a firing position. The safety member further includes a manipulable portion disposed outside the housing and configured for hand-manipulation by a user to remove the safety member from the housing to unblock the firing mechanism to enable firing of the injector.
