  • Patent number: 11872381
    Abstract: A drive train for a wind-up injection device is described. The drive train includes a torsional energy storage adapted to be loaded or unloaded by a rotatable element, a rotatable user handle, a rotationally driveable expelling mechanism adapted to expel the liquid drug, and a clutch element coupled with the torsional energy storage via the rotatable element and including a ratchet for maintaining the rotatable element at one of a number of discrete angular positions against the torque of the torsional energy storage. The clutch element is adapted to transmit the torque from the user handle to the torsional energy storage, or alternatively from the torsional energy storage to the expelling mechanism. The ratchet is switchable from one position to an adjacent position by a torque transmitted from the user handle to the torsional energy storage. The drive train is adapted to dampen torque peaks visco-elastically and/or visco-frictionally.

  • Publication number: 20230330345
    Abstract: An electronic system for a drug delivery device is disclosed. The electronic system comprises a dose setting and drive mechanism. The dose setting and drive mechanism comprises a first member and a button module. The dose setting and drive mechanism is configured such that, at least in the dose delivery operation and/or in the dose setting operation, the first member moves relative to the button module. The electronic system has at least a first low power consumption state and a second high power consumption state. A rotation and/or axial movement of the button module relative to the first member generates a movement component of the at least one switch member relative to the button module and the first member, which triggers switching between the first low power consumption state and the second high power consumption state.
