Publication number: 20150209517Abstract: A medicament delivery device has a drive mechanism that includes a first resilient member and a delay plunger rod assembly that includes a proximal plunger, a distal plunger, a chamber formed between the proximal and the distal plungers, an aperture, and a delay device in the chamber. The distal plunger is positioned and configured in relation to a hold and release mechanism such that, as the drive mechanism exerts a pressure on the medicament container, the distal plunger acts against the delay device, delaying a release of a signal generating member after a release of the drive mechanism to allow remaining contents of medicament in a medicament container to be completely expelled before the signal generating member is released.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2013Publication date: July 30, 2015Applicant: Carebay Europe LtdInventors: Lennart Brunnberg, Stephan Olson

Patent number: 9011386Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for the delivery of predetermined doses of liquid medicament to a patient, which medicament is intended to be inhaled by the patient or intended to be injected into the body of the patient. The device is adapted to be in a medicament delivery state and in a medicament non-delivery state. When the device is in a medicament delivery state, said device is adapted to drive a piston into a cartridge containing the liquid medicament to be delivered, with a force that is above or equal to a predetermined minimum force value and below a predetermined maximum force value. The minimum force value is the lowest force value needed to deliver the predetermined dose and the maximum force value is the first force value at which it exists a risk of damaging the cartridge or the components of the device.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2005Date of Patent: April 21, 2015Assignee: SHL Group ABInventors: Victor Kronestedt, Lennart Brunnberg, Stephan Olson, Anders Karlsson, Tomas Deurell
