Abstract: A cannula assembly includes a soft cannula, a rigid cannula, and a sealing sleeve. A soft cannula lumen surrounds at least a portion of the rigid cannula and provides a sliding connection. The sealing sleeve radially surrounds at least a portion of the soft cannula. A flange of the soft cannula has an extended wall thickness and is arranged at or near a proximal end of the soft cannula. An inner surface of the sealing sleeve engages an outer surface of the soft cannula and provides a sealing pressure radially between the rigid cannula and the soft cannula, defining a sealing area on an outer surface of the rigid cannula. A drug delivery device with the cannula assembly and an automatic insertion mechanism uses the sealing sleeve to ensure a fluid-tight, slidable connection between the soft cannula and the rigid cannula with improved sealing pressure, while allowing damage-free, cost-effective manufacturing.

Abstract: A fill port for filling a liquid medicament into a reservoir located inside a drug delivery device includes insert fixed in a passage of a wall of the drug delivery device, and a pierceable fill port sealing is sandwiched between the insert and both the housing of the drug delivery device and the reservoir to provide a fluid-tight sealing between the reservoir and the housing.

Abstract: A module for a drug delivery device includes a first housing portion with a bearing element for supporting a neck or head portion of a first end of a reservoir and a second housing portion with an elastic contact element for supporting a second end of the reservoir opposite the first end. The first and second housing portions are configured to couple to each other in an assembled state in which the first and second housing portions form a cavity for accommodating the reservoir. The bearing element and the elastic contact element may each define a limiter or limiting structure of the cavity in a longitudinal direction of the cavity to secure or hold the reservoir free of play within the cavity. The elastic contact element may be is injection molded onto a surface of a body of the second housing portion.

Abstract: A modular, semi-disposable patch pump for conducting a medical therapy includes a pump unit releasably connected to a reservoir unit by means of a bayonet connection; and a housing design for supporting both reliability and ease of use of said connection.

Abstract: A drug delivery device for conducting a medical therapy includes a housing with an exit port opening, and an exit port assembly, where said exit port assembly includes a rigid exit port sealing holder and a soft exit port sealing, and provides both a fluid-tight closure of the exit port opening and a fluid-tight connection between the housing and the rigid exit port sealing holder.

Abstract: A delivery device for administering a drug includes a housing, a reservoir and a drive device with a movable piston rod. The piston rod is guided through an aperture in an inner or outer wall of the housing. The aperture is sealed but allows the piston rod to move. The shape of the circumference of the cross-section of the piston rod is approximately a non-trivial curve of constant width.

Abstract: A piercing device for an administration device includes an elastic element with which a biasing force may be generated for piercing, a base, and a cannula unit which may be movable relative to the base in a piercing direction from a safety (secured) position, where the cannula unit may be subjected to the biasing force in the piercing direction. The administration device further includes a securing element by which the cannula unit, subjected to the biasing force, may be held in the safety position and which has a thermosensitive region that may be deformable under mechanical stress when heated, and a heating element with which the thermosensitive region of the securing element may be heated, such that the thermosensitive region of the securing element may deform in response to the biasing force and, as a result, the cannula unit may move away from the safety position in the piercing direction.

Abstract: A hearing aid comprising a receiver assembly is disclosed. The receiver assembly includes a housing adapted to accommodate receivers of different geometry and/or size and/or mechanical dimensions and suspension member arranged in the housing. The suspension member comprises vibration dampers protruding from an outer periphery of the suspension member and a plurality of spacers provided at an inner periphery of the suspension member. The plurality of spacers is positioned to arrange and fix one or more cushions or enclosed structures in predefined grooves formed by adjacent spacers in the space between the receiver and the suspension member.
