  • Patent number: 11529467
    Abstract: A container adapter for a medical delivery device is disclosed. The medical delivery device has a container seat for holding a container, a dosage chamber, a dosing mechanism and a lock mechanism adapted to prevent operation of the dosing mechanism when no container is held in the container seat and to allow operation of the dosing mechanism when the container is held in the container seat. The container adapter includes an adapter container seat arranged to hold a container, a joint structure arranged to be detachably positioned in the container seat of the medical delivery device and to connect the adapter container seat to the dosing mechanism, and an unlock member adapted to activate the lock mechanism. A delivery assembly and a method of delivering a liquid to a patient from different containers is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10561792
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a drug delivery device comprising a housing retaining a primary drug delivery assembly and a secondary drug delivery assembly. The secondary drug delivery assembly comprises a secondary dose setting mechanism with a biasing member adapted to reset the secondary dose setting mechanism in a resetting movement. An actuator is movable relative to the housing and comprises a first engagement section configured to engage a second engagement section provided by an actuation collar such that an actuation movement of the actuator is transferred to the actuation collar. A setting element is movable between a first position and a second position and is connected to the secondary dose setting mechanism such that during the resetting movement of the secondary dose setting mechanism, the setting element is moved from the second position into the first position.

  • Patent number: 10463802
    Abstract: Drug delivery device comprising a housing retaining a primary drug delivery assembly for the delivery of a primary medicament with a primary dose setting member configured to rotate in a helical movement to set a dose of the primary medicament and a secondary drug delivery assembly for the delivery of a secondary medicament. A dose dial is movable between a first position and a second position in axial direction and is rotationally constrained with respect to the housing when moved from the first position into the second position and is rotationally constrained to the primary dose setting member in the second position for setting a dose of the primary medicament. A secondary drive sleeve of the secondary drug delivery assembly serves for dispense of the secondary medicament. The dose dial and the secondary drive sleeve can be coupled for dose setting.

  • Patent number: 10417937
    Abstract: The training device for medicine injection devices comprises a plunger slidably arranged in the cavity of a body. The plunger comprises a compressible element arranged at a distal end of the plunger and adapted to provide a resistance between compressible element and inner wall if the cavity of the body when the plunger is moved in the cavity towards the distal end of the body. The resistance corresponds to an injection resistance of a medicine injected into a patient. The invention also comprises a reset device for resetting the training device from a used status to a condition for reuse.

  • Publication number: 20180161500
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a drug delivery device with a primary drug delivery assembly for the delivery of a primary medicament, with a primary dose setting member; and a secondary drug delivery assembly for the delivery of a secondary medicament with a secondary dose setting member. A dose dial is rotationally constrained with respect to the housing in a first axial position and is rotationally constrained to the primary dose setting member in a second axial position. A bridging component is axially constrained to the dose dial to set a dose of the secondary medicament, wherein rotation of the dose dial to set a dose of the primary medicament causes the dose dial to move relative to the bridging component in axial direction.
