  • Patent number: 9044548
    Abstract: An air shot or priming mechanism for an injection pen. The injection pen comprises a cartridge-holder and a housing. The cartridge-holder interacts with a nut-member capable of driving the piston rod forward when relatively rotated. The cartridge-holder is rotational coupled to the housing such that rotation of the cartridge-holder relatively to the housing causes the nut-member and the piston rod to rotate relatively, thus the relative angular rotation between the cartridge-holder and the housing determines the size of the air shot so performed.

  • Patent number: 8608709
    Abstract: The invention concerns an injection device for apportioning set doses of a drug from a reservoir to a subject. The injection device comprises a dose setting member (20, 70) which is screwed out from the housing (30) to set a dose and pushed axially back to the housing (30) in order to expel the set dose. A scale drum (80) is axially and inrotatable coupled to the dose setting member (20, 70) such that the scale drum (80) is rotated up a thread (34) when the dose setting member (20, 70) is rotated to set a dose. When the dose setting member (20, 70) is pushed axially back to its initial position to inject the set dose, the scale drum (80) is released from its inrotatable connection in order to allow the scale drum (80) to rotate down the thread (34) and back to its zero position.

  • Patent number: 6575455
    Abstract: An apparatus for inverting and returning sheets from a printer (1) for large-sized paper comprises an inlet area (11) where the sheet is received from the printer (1), and an outlet area (12) where said sheet is returned to the printer (1). The apparatus comprises a frame (16) mountable on the support of the printer (1), and a guiding slit (18) in the inlet area, said guiding slit being defined by an upper wall (13) and a lower wall (17), where the lower wall (17) extends from the inlet (11) to a clamping slit (22) between a first pair of roller means (23, 24) for receiving and temporarily retaining the front edge of a sheet when seen in the advancing direction, said sheet being received through the inlet area. The lower guiding wall (17) is tiltable and adapted to be moved about a substantially horizontal axis from a sheet-supporting position to a downward sheet-releasing position.
