Abstract: An injection device comprising: a housing arranged to contain a medicament cartridge; a needle holder holding an injection needle; a generally tubular needle sleeve fixed with respect to the needle holder and axially movable with respect to the housing; and a gear assembly comprising a rotary gear fixed to the needle holder, a first gear rack disposed on the needle sleeve and a second gear rack disposed on the housing, wherein the gear assembly is arranged so that movement of the needle sleeve in a proximal axial direction causes movement of the needle holder in the proximal axial direction.

Abstract: An injection device comprises a housing containing a cartridge, a needle holder including an injection needle, and a cap. The cap is removably engaged with the housing. The injection device also comprises a translating mechanism configured such that linear distal movement of the cap causes proximal movement of the needle holder such that the injection needle pierces the cartridge.

Abstract: A medicament injection device comprising a main body arranged to receive a medicament cartridge; a needle carrier carrying a needle, wherein the needle carrier is axially movable with respect to the main body; and a rotatable cap at a distal end of the device, wherein the cap is removably coupled to the needle carrier, a releasable arrangement between the main body and the cap comprising a guide element and a slotted link, wherein the slotted link is arranged to cause the guide element to follow a predefined path at least partly in an axial direction during rotational movement of the cap, thereby causing the needle carrier to move axially towards a proximal end of the device as the cap is rotated up to a predefined point, wherein the main body comprises a medicament cartridge holder comprising the guide element depending therefrom for engagement with the cap.

Abstract: A medicament delivery device is provided. The medicament delivery device may include, among other features, a cartridge holder mounted in a housing and configured to receive a cartridge containing a medicament. The device may also include an outer cap detachably connected to the housing, and a coupling mechanism configured to connect the outer cap to an injection needle holder to which an injection needle is fixed. The coupling mechanism may include a rotatable member configured to be connected to an injection needle holder. The coupling mechanism may also be threadedly engaged with, and rotatable to, the outer cap. The configuration of the device may allow for quicker and more efficient delivery of medicament.

Abstract: A medicament delivery device comprising: a main body arranged to receive a medicament cartridge sealed with a penetrable barrier; a needle carrier carrying a needle; a cap removably coupled to the needle carrier, a pre-stressed spring connected to the needle carrier and to the main body, wherein the pre-stressed spring is held by an activation element coupled to the cap, wherein the activation element is arranged to release the spring when the cap is pulled in a distal direction from the device, thereby causing the needle carrier to move axially in a proximal direction.

Abstract: A medicament injection device comprising: a main body configured to receive a medicament cartridge sealed with a penetrable barrier, a needle holder holding a needle, a needle sleeve arranged around at least a portion of the needle holder and needle, and arranged to be axially movable with respect to the main body; and a retainer coupled to the needle holder and to the needle sleeve and axially movable with respect to the main body along the main axis of the device; wherein the retainer is coupled to the needle holder so that, upon displacement of the needle sleeve and the retainer by a predefined distance towards a proximal end of the main body, the needle holder and needle are displaced axially towards the proximal end of the main body and decouple from the retainer; and wherein the needle sleeve is configured to disengage from the needle holder upon axial displacement of the needle sleeve in the proximal direction beyond the predefined distance.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a drug delivery device for dispensing a liquid drug through a needle with a proximal and a distal needle tip, comprising a body, a needle holder holding the needle relative to the body, a cartridge holder holding a cartridge comprising the liquid drug sealed with a septum on a distal end and with a movable stopper on a proximal end, and a cap adapted to cover at least the distal needle tip of the needle, wherein the cartridge holder is movable relative to the body from a retracted position towards an advanced position, thereby piercing the proximal needle tipthrough the septum, characterized in that the cap is releasably engaged with the cartridge holder, wherein the cap is released from the cartridge holder in its advanced position.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a medicament delivery device, comprising: a tubular body having a distal end, a cap adapted to be connected to the distal end (of the body, wherein the body comprises a first clip having a first stop and a first ramp, wherein the cap comprises a second clip having a second stop and a second ramp, wherein the first ramp and the second ramp are adapted to be mutually engaged when the cap is connected to the body in a first position, wherein the first ramp and the second ramp are adapted to resiliently deflect at least one of the first clip and the second clip when the cap is being moved from the first position towards a second position, wherein in the second position the first stop and the second stop abut each other to prevent the cap from being moved into the first position. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to a method for assembling the medicament delivery device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a safety device (S) for a drug delivery device (1), comprising: —a support body (2) adapted to receive and hold the drug delivery device (1), —a needle shield (8) slidably arranged relative to the support body (2), —an inner locking mechanism (12) arranged inside the needle shield (8) between a front end of the needle shield (8) and a front end of the support body (2) and adapted to lock and unlock the needle shield (8).

Abstract: The invention refers to a needle safety device (1) comprising a needle cap (5) arranged to cover and protect a needle (4), a needle shield (6) relatively movable with respect to a drug delivery device (2) to cover and protect the needle (4)and a needle cap remover (7). The needle cap remover (7) has an outer part (8) adapted to be arranged to the needle shield (6) and an inner part (9) adapted to carry the needle cap (5), wherein the outer part (8) comprises a front end (10) having an opening (11) which at its edge exhibits a projection (12) directed inwards adapted to catch a front projection (13) of the inner part (9) and the inner part (9) comprises a back end (14) having a grip member (15) adapted to grip a back end (16) of the needle cap (5).
