The assembly nest includes a base against which a sub assembly of a drug delivery device is mountable to orientate said sub assembly in a predetermined position; and locking mechanism having a resilient member to urge the locking mechanism into one of: an unlocked position, in which a sub assembly of a drug delivery device can be mounted to the base; or a locked position, in which the locking mechanism engages a mounted sub assembly to retain it in its predetermined position on the base.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to cap for an injection device. The cap includes a needle shield and a conduit. The needle shield includes a body with a recess for receiving part of a needle syringe. The conduit is movable from an initial position, wherein a portion of the body is located between the recess and the conduit, to a cap removal position, wherein the conduit extends through said portion of the body to fluidly communicate with the recess to allow the ingress of gas into the recess.

Abstract: The invention refers to a needle cap remover (7) for a needle cap (5.1) of a drug delivery device (2). The needle cap remover (7) comprises a body (8) having a material which differs from the material of the needle cap (5.1) or of a rigid needle shield (5) encasing the needle cap (5.1) in at least one parameter, wherein a body portion (8.1), which covers the needle cap (5.1) or the rigid needle shield (5) encasing the needle cap (5.1), is adapted to capture the needle cap (5.1) or the rigid needle shield (5) encasing the needle cap (5.1) by a positive and/or non-positive connections before or during removing of the needle cap (5.1) and is adapted to shrunk when a pulling force is applied.
