  • Patent number: 9604011
    Abstract: According to the invention, a safety device for a pre-filled syringe comprises a hollow support body for retaining the pre-filled syringe, a hollow needle shield that is movable relative to the support body from a first position to a second position, releasable mounting means to mount the pre-filled syringe within the support body and a spring means arranged within the support body in a non-energized or only slightly energized state. The movement of the needle shield from the first position to the second position fully energizes the spring means.

  • Patent number: 9586011
    Abstract: A safety device for a pre-filled syringe comprises a hollow support body to retain the pre-filled syringe therein, a hollow needle shield that is slidable relative to the support body and guiding means for guiding the movement of the needle shield relative to the support body. The guiding means comprise a deflectable flexible arm, a guide pin and a guide track. The deflectable flexible arm extends essentially parallel to a central axis of the safety device. The guide pin extends radial from the flexible arm. The guide track guides the guide pin within and along the guide track when the needle shield is slid relative to the support body.

  • Patent number: 9526845
    Abstract: A needle shield comprising at least two different plastic materials of different flexibility and a central aperture of variable diameter. The central aperture comprises a first diameter for retaining a needle cap therein. The diameter of the central aperture changes upon removal of the needle cap from the first diameter to a second diameter by virtue of a memory effect of the material of the needle shield. The needle shield is made by an injection molding process.

  • Patent number: 9440032
    Abstract: A safety device for a pre-filled syringe comprises a hollow support body to retain the pre-filled syringe, a retaining collar and a rotating collar arranged within the support body. The retaining collar is releasably mounted to the support body. The rotating collar is slidable along an axial length of the support body and rotatable around a central axis of the safety device. The retaining collar is movable with respect to the support body in a proximal direction when the retaining collar is released from being mounted to the support body by the rotating collar.

  • Patent number: 9192731
    Abstract: According to the invention, a safety device for a pre-filled syringe comprises a hollow support body having a releasable mounting means adapted to mount a pre-filled syringe within the support body, a hollow outer body sildably arranged with respect to the support body and adapted to receive the support body and a release collar non-rotatably arranged within the support body. The release collar is movable relative to the support body and adapted to release the mounting means. A guide track is formed into at least one substantially planar side wall of the support body. The release collar comprises at least one flexible arm with a guide pin that extends from the flexible arm and protrudes through the guide track. The guide pin is movable within and along the guide track in a plane defined by the substantially planar side wall. A guide rail is formed into at least one substantially planar inner surface of the outer body.

  • Patent number: 8402966
    Abstract: A filter mask includes an oronasal cup, an inhalation directional cover, and an exhalation diverter body. The oronasal cup encloses a nose and mouth of a user. The oronasal cup is fluidly coupled with a filter. The inhalation directional cover is configured to be joined to the filter. The inhalation directional cover includes an elongated wing portion that is oriented in an inhalation direction that is angled with respect to the center axis of the filter. The exhalation diverter body is fluidly coupled with the oronasal cup. The exhalation diverter body defines an exhalation duct that directs exhaled air out of the oronasal cup along an exhalation direction. The inhalation direction and the exhalation direction are oriented away from a plane of interaction between the user and another person.
