  • Publication number: 20240108799
    Abstract: A system for flushing a lumen of a medical device to remove air, comprising: a first fluid delivery device adapted to provide a pulsatile flow of a flushing gas from a pressurised source of the flushing gas; a second fluid delivery device adapted to provide a pulsatile flow of a flushing liquid from a source of the flushing liquid; and, at least one fluid coupling for connecting the first fluid delivery device and the second fluid delivery device to the lumen of the medical device.

  • Publication number: 20230140568
    Abstract: An auto-injector for administering a dose of a liquid medicament (M) is presented having an elongate case, a carrier subassembly comprising a tubular carrier slidably arranged inside the case, where the carrier adapted to contain a syringe with a hollow injection needle. The injector also has, a drive spring and a plunger for forwarding load of the drive spring to a stopper of the syringe, wherein the syringe is lockable for joint axial translation with the carrier. A control spring is arranged around the carrier for translating the carrier in a proximal direction (P) for advancing the needle beyond a proximal end of the auto-injector, and a trigger button is used for releasing the control spring on actuation.

  • Patent number: 11524116
    Abstract: A drug delivery device includes a housing and a movable member, which is arranged to be rotatable in an incrementing direction and a decrementing direction, the movable member being operatively coupled to an energy storage member and biased to rotate into the decrementing direction by energy stored or storable in the energy storage member. Rotation of the movable member in the incrementing direction increases the energy stored in the energy storage member. The drug delivery device also includes a locking system including a locking feature, a block feature, and a release member, wherein the locking feature is arranged to cooperate with the block feature to form a releasable locking interface configured such that, when the releasable locking interface is established, rotational movement of the movable member relative to the housing is blocked in the decrementing direction, and when the releasable locking interface is released, the movable member is rotatable in the decrementing direction.

  • Patent number: 9895493
    Abstract: An injection device (110) is described having a housing (112) and a cap (130). The injection device (110) houses a syringe (114) having a needle (118) which is sealed by a boot (120). The cap (130) is arranged so that the boot (120) can be connected to the cap (130) simply, but cannot be removed from the cap (130). The housing (112) and cap (130) are arranged so that upon rotation of the cap (130), the cap (130) is moved axially away from the housing (112) and the boot (120) is removed from the syringe (114). The injection device is simple to use and manufacture.
