Patent number: 11712526Abstract: A safety device for an injection syringe including a syringe support, a protective sheath for protecting an injection needle carried by the injection syringe, the protective sheath being mounted to slide relative to the syringe support between an injection position in which the needle is uncovered, and a protection position in which the needle is covered, the protective sheath having an initial grip surface enabling the device to be gripped by a user, the initial grip surface being a projection that extends outward from the protective sheath, and a return spring for urging the sheath into the protection position. The sheath also includes an extender member for extending the initial grip surface, being a separate piece from the protective sheath, attached to the protective sheath in such a manner as to present an enlarged grip surface, larger than the initial grip surface.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2020Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Inventors: Pascal Dugand, Sylvain Lanzi

Patent number: 11642465Abstract: A part of a device for injecting a liquid product having an end sleeve and a syringe support which is able to move with respect to the end sleeve. The syringe support is designed to bear an injection syringe fitted with a removable protective cap. A deformable ring is kinematically connected to the syringe support. This ring can be deformed elastically between a configuration which is designed to axially immobilize the injection syringe in the syringe support, and a configuration designed to allow the protective cap to pass through the deformable ring.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2017Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Inventors: Pascal Dugand, Kevin Stamp

Patent number: 11285270Abstract: An assistance device for assisting in operation of an injection syringe including a syringe body carrying an injection needle covered with a protective cap. The assistance device includes a support for housing the syringe body, and a removal device for removing the protective cap, having a gripping member to be maneuvered by a user to remove this protective cap from the injection needle, and at least one extractor cooperating with the protective cap during removal of the protective cap. The removal device also has complementary members for controlling the extractor, which can be moved relative to each other in a relative engagement movement, to move the extractor between a reference configuration retracted relative to the protective cap and a cooperation configuration cooperating with the protective cap. The relative engagement movement is independent of the maneuvering movement applied by the user to the gripping member to remove the protective cap.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2017Date of Patent: March 29, 2022Inventors: Pascal Dugand, Kevin Stamp

Patent number: 11224694Abstract: An automatic injection device including an injection syringe equipped with a syringe body and with a piston rod mounted movably in this syringe body so as to cover an injection stroke, a piston control member capable of changing between a configuration in which it is in engagement with the piston rod and a configuration in which it is disengaged from this piston rod, mechanism for moving the piston control member between its two configurations with respect to the piston rod. The mechanism for moving the control member between its two configurations includes a camway carried by a disengagement member and a cam carried by the control member. The disengagement member is movable with respect to the piston rod and the syringe body after the end of the injection stroke, in such a way as to cause the camway to interact with the cam.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2017Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Inventors: Pascal Dugand, Kevin Stamp
