Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide a needle shield remover that reliably engages with a distal cap of an automatic injection device and with one or more needle shields coupled to a syringe of the device. When a user removes the distal cap, the needle shield remover reliably removes the needle shields (e.g., a soft needle shield and a rigid needle shield) from the syringe, thereby exposing the injection needle for performing an injection. In an exemplary assembly method, a needle shield remover is engaged to a needle shield coupled to a syringe, prior to insertion of the syringe and needle shield remover assembly into a housing of the device. This exemplary assembly method allows visual inspection, outside the housing of the device, to ensure that the needle shield remover is correctly and reliably engaged to the needle shield before the syringe and needle shield remover assembly is inserted into the housing.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure provide reusable training automatic injection training devices, and components thereof, to simulate and/or mimic an operation of an actual automatic injection device. Exemplary embodiments of the training device can provide audible instructions, which can be in different languages, output from circuitry associated with the training device. Exemplary embodiment of the training device can be a self-contained and portable device that mimics a shape, size, and function of an actual automatic injection device without including a needle or any drug on board.
