  • Patent number: 9884153
    Abstract: A medicament delivery device has proximal and distal ends; a medicament container with a plunger, a neck portion, and a delivery member unit; a housing extending along a longitudinal axis with proximal and distal open ends; a drive unit configured to apply a force on the plunger; and a C-shaped tubular body with a longitudinal slit/gap such that body can be attached to the neck portion forming a container unit. The C-shaped body also has an inner support configured to interact with the neck portion and with the delivery member unit and prevent the medicament container from moving relative to the body after the medicament container is attached to the body, and outer support configured to interact with a corresponding support of the housing to prevent the C-shaped tubular body from moving relative to the housing after the container is arranged within the housing through the distal open end.

  • Patent number: 7407494
    Abstract: A device for delivery of medicament includes a main housing, a container having at least two compartments, each containing a component of the medicament to be injected, and arranged to be connected to a patient delivery element, a longitudinally movable piston and a spring arrangement acting on the piston to exert a force on the components, a first holding element for holding the piston in a force-loaded state, and at least one activator for releasing the piston, a second holding element for stopping the piston when it has moved a certain first distance after one activation of the at least one activator and holding the piston in that position, wherein the force from the piston/spring arrangement and the movement causes the compartments to communicate with each other and the components to mix.
