Abstract: A medicament delivery system for use with medicament delivery device includes a support member, a compression member spaced from the support member to define a gap therebetween, a mechanical coupling between the support member and the compression member comprising a plurality of connecting members extending between the support member and the compression member, and a biasing element connected to the compression member and configured to exert a rotational force on the compression member relative to the support member. The mechanical coupling is configured such that rotation of the compression member relative to the support member causes the compression member to be drawn towards the support member to reduce the gap therebetween.

Abstract: A medical device packaging comprises a container having an opening. A medical device is disposed within the container. The medical device includes an adhesive contact face facing the opening. A first cover is disposed over the opening in the container to close the container. A second cover is disposed over the adhesive contact face of the medical device. The first and second covers are connected such that removal of the first cover from the container causes detachment of the second cover from the medical device.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a medicament delivery device comprising a housing, a reservoir for medicament disposed in the housing and a dispensing member. The dispensing member is moveable relative to the housing from a first position to a second position to dispense medicament from the reservoir when the reservoir contains medicament. The medicament delivery device further comprises first and second biasing members. The first biasing member is configured to urge the dispensing member from the first position to an intermediate position. The second biasing member is configured to urge the dispensing member from the intermediate position to the second position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a medicament delivery device. The medicament delivery device comprises a housing, a needle, a medicament delivery mechanism and an actuator. The needle is moveable from a retracted position, wherein the needle is fully received in the housing, to an extended position, wherein the needle protrudes out of the housing. The medicament delivery mechanism comprises a reservoir and dispensing member each disposed in the housing, first and second biasing members, and first and second locking members. The actuator is moveable relative to the housing from an initial position to an intermediate position such that the actuator exerts a force on the first locking member to urge the first locking member from a locked state to an unlocked state wherein the first biasing member moves the needle from the retracted position to the extended position.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a medicament delivery device. The medicament delivery device comprises a housing, a needle and a reservoir. The needle is configured to project from a distal end of the housing. The reservoir is disposed in the housing and has a flexible wall. The medicament delivery device further comprises a dispensing member and a biasing member. The dispensing member is disposed in the housing and the biasing member is configured to bias the dispensing member to move in an arcuate path relative to the housing such that the dispensing member moves across the flexible wall of the reservoir to dispense medicament from the reservoir when the reservoir contains medicament.

Abstract: A medicament delivery device comprises a needle configured to move between a retracted position and an inserted position; an insertion mechanism to move the needle from the retracted position to the inserted position when activated; a locking arm which, in a locked position, is engaged with the insertion mechanism to prevent activation of the insertion mechanism and, in an unlocked position, is disengaged from the insertion mechanism; a retraction mechanism to move the needle from the inserted position to the retracted position when activated; and a trigger configured to move between a disengaged position and an engaged position. On moving from the disengaged position to the engaged position, the trigger is configured to move the locking arm from the locked position to the unlocked position. On moving from the engaged position to the disengaged position, the trigger is configured to activate the retraction mechanism.

Abstract: There is provided a cassette unit suitable for use with an auto-injector. The cassette unit comprises a cassette unit housing and a removable cap that in a capping position fits over and thereby, acts to close off, a needle projection aperture of the housing. The cassette unit housing has one or more first engagement features arranged for reversibly engaging one or more second engagement features of the removable cap for reversible lock engagement of the removable cap to the housing; and a shuttle lock control defining one or more blocking elements for selectively blocking movement of said first engagement features relative to said second engagement features. The shuttle lock control is axially movable relative to the cassette unit housing between a first ‘cassette unused’ position; a second ‘cassette unlocked’ position; and after replacement of the removable cap, a third ‘cassette used’ position, locating intermediate the first and second positions.

Abstract: Provided is a cassette unit suitable for use with an auto-injector having an electrically powered drive unit. The cassette unit comprises a cassette unit housing defining a cassette unit housing cavity and a needle projection aperture. The housing cavity may receive a syringe. Axially movable within the barrel of the syringe for forward movement into contact with the syringe plunger, there is a plunger slaving part defining a circumferential wall arranged for frictional sliding relationship with the inner wall of the barrel, a rear drive-receiving face and a front plunger-contacting face. The plunger slaving part is arranged such that when a drive load is applied to its rear drive-receiving face to bring the front plunger-contacting face into contact with the plunger the drive load is evenly transmitted. The circumferential wall is provided with slide restrictors that restrict frictional sliding movement thereof in relation to the inner wall of the barrel.

In capping relationship with the rearward entrance of the cassette unit housing there is an end-cap defining a drive rod-receiving opening for receipt of a drive rod for providing forward axial drive to the plunger slaving part. In a pre-use configuration, the plunger slaving part is shaped for releasable engagement with the end-cap.
