Patent number: 8328772Abstract: A needle 1 for penetrating a membrane 2, having a pointed end 3 provided with a penetrating tip 4 and with an opening 6 for letting a liquid in and/or out in a main direction 7 which is substantially parallel to the longitudinal extension of the needle 1. The penetrating tip 4 is designed with a substantially point-shaped edge 8 to initially prick the membrane when the membrane is penetrated. The outer edges 19 present on the pointed end 3 in the area from the point-shaped edge 8 to a position beyond the opening 6 are rounded so that after the initial penetration the pointed end 3 will push the membrane material away rather than cutting the membrane material.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2004Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Carmel Pharma ABInventors: Peter Kinast, Kjell Andreasson, Einar Jorgensen, Fredrik Backstrom

Patent number: 7867215Abstract: A fluid transfer device for use in an infusion system having a first end and a second end for coupling to an injection port of the infusion system. The device further includes at least a first member, a hollow needle attached to the first member, and a second member telescopically displaceable in relation to the first member, allowing the hollow needle to penetrate a flexible barrier member sealing the injection port thereby creating a fluid passage into the infusion system. The first end has a connecting portion for attachment to a drug bottle containing a fixed dose of a medical substance, and the second end has a flexible membrane able to be pressed against the flexible barrier member with a pressure sufficient to create a double-membrane sealing around the hollow needle.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2002Date of Patent: January 11, 2011Assignee: Carmel Pharma ABInventors: Roger Åkerlund, Kjell Andreasson

Patent number: 7306584Abstract: A first aspect of the invention relates to a method for aseptic preparation with an injection syringe. The syringe comprises a container for injection agent and an immovable connection nozzle connected to the container. The method entails charging the container with air. According to the invention air is forced to pass through an air filter arranged on the connection nozzle. This enables the syringe container to be charged with aseptic air in a simple and reliable fashion. Other aspects of the invention relate to devices for performing the method, viz. an injection syringe equipped with an air filter in the connection nozzle, a filter unit (2) connectable to an injection syringe's (1) connection nozzle (13) and a system comprising an injection syringe (1) and a separate filter unit (2). The invention devices convey advantages of the same kind as the invention method.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2001Date of Patent: December 11, 2007Assignee: Carmel Pharma ABInventors: Göran Wessman, Kjell Andreasson

Patent number: 6343629Abstract: A coupling device for coupling a vial connector to a drug vial, comprising actuating means (112′), for bringing the drug vial and/or the vial connector (105′) into a third position in which a cannula (108′) penetrates a seal (104′) of the drug vial in a direction along an axis (A) substantially perpendicular (&agr;≈90°) to a main plane (P) of the seal (104′), and guiding means (113) controlling the direction. The actuating means (112′) are designed for applying a force on the drug vial and/or the vial connector (105′) enabling the locking means (106′, 107′) to become permanently locked around the neck (102′). The first positioning means (110′) are adjustable for holding drug vials (101′) of several different dimensions and/or the second positioning means (111′) are adjustable for holding vial connectors (105′) of several different dimensions.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2000Date of Patent: February 5, 2002Assignee: Carmel Pharma ABInventors: Göran Wessman, Kjell Andreasson, Ingvar Andersson
