Patent number: 10695504Abstract: A drug delivery system comprises means to create a log of expelled dose amounts of drug. Stored dose amounts determined within a given time period are combined to a single combined dose amount. The given time period is initiated by a detected expelling event taking place (i) a given amount of time after a previous detected expelling event, or (ii) after a given detected action. By this arrangement it is possible to create a log corresponding to what a user considers to be a single dose, i.e. combining “split doses” to create a single log entry for a per se split dose.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2014Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Preben Mikael Nielsen, Nikolaj Frogner Krusell, Jens Christian Andersen, Nikolaj Eusebius Jakobsen

Patent number: 10384013Abstract: Add-on module (100) for logging the value of an expelled dose from a pen-type drug injector (200), comprising a magnetic sensor system comprising first and second sensor means (745/746) as well as a mechanical dose setting and expelling mechanism comprising a magnetic clutch element (240/740) which rotates during drug expelling. The system further comprises processor means configured to determine (i) on the basis of measured values from the first sensor means, a rotational position of the clutch element, (ii) on the basis of measured values from the second sensor means, a high-speed condition in which the rotational speed of the clutch element exceeds a given threshold level, and (iii) indicate an error state if the high-speed condition is detected.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2015Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Nikolaj Frogner Krusell, Preben Mikael Nielsen, Jens Christian Andersen

Patent number: 10213554Abstract: A medial assembly comprises a logging first unit adapted to be mounted on a drug delivery device second unit from a fully un-mounted to a fully mounted position along a path. The first unit comprises a switch operatable between an off- and an on-state when the first unit is mounted on the second unit, the switch being in the on-state when the first unit is mounted within a first distance from the fully mounted position, and in the off-state when the first unit is mounted outside the first distance from the fully mounted position, and a snap lock operatable from an initial state through an expanded state to a snap-in state when the first unit is mounted on the second unit, the snap lock being in the snap-in state when the first unit is mounted within a second distance from the fully mounted position, the second distance being shorter than the first distance. By this arrangement it is ensured that the switch will be in the on-state before the snap lock is in the snap-in state.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2016Date of Patent: February 26, 2019Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Jens Christian Andersen, Preben Mikael Nielsen, Nikolaj Eusebius Jakobsen, Nikolaj Frogner Krusell

Patent number: 10159797Abstract: An add-on logging device (100, 300) mounted to a drug delivery device is turned on when the cap is removed. After a given amount of time in inactivity the sensor means of the add-on device is turned off automatically to save energy. If the user takes a dose of drug this is not detected as the add-on device is only turned on when the cap is removed. According to the present invention a warning message is provided when the cap is re-mounted after the sensor means has been turned off automatically, the warning message indicating to a user that an expelled dose may not have been detected.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2015Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/SInventors: Jens Christian Andersen, Nikolaj Frogner Krusell, Preben Mikael Nielsen
