Abstract: Disclosed is a drug delivery device including a housing extending along a longitudinal axis of the drug delivery device, and a distal device portion. The distal device portion includes a distal portion, a proximal portion and at least one intermediate portion. The distal portion includes a distal opening allowing passage of a needle and a bearing surface. The intermediate portion includes at least one wall portion extending proximally from the distal portion to the proximal portion. In at least one state of the drug delivery device, a first radial outer extension of the distal portion in a region axially adjoining the bearing surface is smaller than a second radial outer extension in the intermediate portion, and an outer face of the intermediate portion is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis in a cross section along the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A drug delivery device with an adjustable injection depth comprises a housing, a support element, and a container retaining space for receiving a container comprising a drug. The support element supports the container within the housing, and the drug delivery device comprises a spacer element. In a first state of the drug delivery device, a first axial position of the container relative to the housing is adjusted by the spacer element being in a first spacer position, and in a second state of the drug delivery device, a second axial position of the container is adjusted by the spacer element being in a second position within the housing or being outside of the housing. The first axial position enables a smaller injection depth of a needle coupled to the container compared to the injection depth enabled if the container is in the second axial position.

Abstract: The present disclosure concerns an assembly for an injection device, e.g. an auto-injector device, comprising: a medicament container comprising a medicament container body and a needle protruding from a distal end of the medicament container body and fluidly connected to an interior of the medicament container body, a housing comprising a first bearing surface configured to support the medicament container in a distal direction, a distancing element arranged on the needle and providing a second bearing surface configured to contact a patient's skin during use of the injection device, thereby preventing insertion of the needle into the patient's body beyond a predetermined injection depth.

Abstract: A drug delivery arrangement (1) comprising a drug delivery device (2), having a housing (3), and a needle, and a tissue receiving element (6), having a needle passage opening (7) and a tissue receiving portion (8), wherein the tissue receiving element is configured to interact with the skin (9) in order to lift tissue into the tissue receiving portion to reduce the risk of injury due to deep punctures.

Abstract: A drug delivery arrangement includes a drug delivery device with a housing adapted to receive a needle that is configured to pierce a skin of a user. The drug delivery device comprises a drive energy source, and is configured to perform a drug delivery operation using the energy obtainable from the drive energy source. The drug delivery device is an autoinjector. An injection depth adjusting member is connectable to or connected to a device member of the drug delivery device. The injection depth adjusting member is configured to provide an adjuster bearing surface with which the drug delivery arrangement bears on the skin during use when the injection depth adjusting member is connected to the device member. When connected to the device member, the injection depth adjusting member is configured to define the injection depth by which the needle can penetrate the skin.

Abstract: An assembly for an injection device, such as an auto-injector device, includes a housing comprising a first bearing surface to support a medicament container in a distal direction, and a needle cover comprising a second bearing surface to protrude from the housing further than a needle of the medicament container at least in a first state and in a first position. The needle cover is arranged in the housing to move telescopically in the housing when a force is exerted upon it in a proximal direction, and the needle cover comprises an opening for the needle to pass through when the needle cover is moved into the housing to a second position. The assembly also includes a coupling element to cause the medicament container to move into the proximal direction in parallel with the needle cover when the needle cover is moved into the proximal direction past the second position.

Abstract: The present invention features filtration assemblies, cassettes, systems, and methods for filtering cells from a sample solution and then incubating the captured cells.

Abstract: A shelving system having at least one shelf mountable on a support, the shelf defining an edge face, at least one opening formed in the edge face, the opening including one or more projections, at least one accessory for fitting into the opening and having a complementary shape in order to mate with the at least one projection in the opening, and at least one protective edging member attachable to the shelf. The edging member includes at least one opening which corresponds to the at least one opening in the shelf and which has a protruding tongue shaped to receive the projection.

Abstract: A shelving system (10) with height adjustable shelves is described, with reference to a portable trolley with shelves for holding medical equipment, although it is also applicable to portable and stationary shelving systems for many uses. The shelving system (10) comprises at least one shelf (18), at least one support (14) and at least one locating bracket (36) for locating the shelf (18) on the support (14). The locating bracket (36) includes at least two engagement members (38) engageable with the support (14), and locking means (40) to lock the locating bracket (36) and the shelf (18) to the support (14).
