MEDICATION DISPENSING APPARATUS CONFIGURED FOR ROTATE TO PRIME AND PULL/PUSH TO INJECT FUNCTIONALITY
Publication number: 20070142789Abstract: A medication dispensing apparatus having a manually operable plunger axially shiftable relative to the apparatus housing. The plunger is pullable relative to the housing in a proximal direction to cock the apparatus, and when the plunger is then manually pushed back toward the housing, a piston within a medicine container of the apparatus is shifted to force medication from a needle assembly at the distal end of the apparatus. The medication dispensing apparatus also includes a priming mechanism which is operated by rotating an externally accessible driver portion to prime the apparatus for use, which priming can be performed whether or not the apparatus is in a cocked state.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2007Publication date: June 21, 2007Inventors: Mark Fisher, Traci Barron, Scott Massing, Iain Roberts -
Publication number: 20070088288Abstract: A guide and follower cooperate to promote a user moving the driver relative to the housing along a travel path that operates the apparatus. The cooperating elements of the nut and the driver are disengaged when the driver is disposed in a reset segment of the travel path, and the cooperating elements of the nut and the driver become engaged when the driver is shifted through a nut engaging segment of the travel path from the reset segment to a nut rotating segment of the travel path. The engagement of the cooperating elements of the nut and the driver cause the nut to screw proximally along the threaded shaft of the drive member when the driver is shifted through the nut rotating segment from the nut engaging segment to an injecting section of the travel path.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2004Publication date: April 19, 2007Applicant: Eli Lilly and Company Patent DivisionInventors: Traci Barron, Andrew Burroughs, David Hixson
