摘要:
A sub-assembly of a medicament delivery device, the sub-assembly comprising a housing for containing a propellant source, and a locking ring for attachment to the housing. The housing is configured to receive a flange of a syringe, the locking ring is configured to retain a syringe flange received in the housing between the locking ring and the housing when the locking ring is attached to the housing.

A valve for discharging a fluid, comprising: a valve body at least partially defining a fluid chamber; and a valve stem extending into the fluid chamber, the valve stem comprising an outlet port for transfer, in use, of fluid from the fluid chamber into the valve stem; the valve stem being slidably movable relative to the valve body from: i) a non-dispensing position in which the outlet port is out of communication with the fluid chamber; to ii) a dispensing position in which the outlet port is in fluid communication with the fluid chamber so as to permit transfer of the fluid from the fluid chamber into the valve stem; wherein the valve further comprises a locking member which is configured to prevent return of the valve stem into the non-dispensing position once the valve stem slides beyond a locking position.
摘要:
A sub-assembly of a medicament delivery device including a propellant source having a reservoir for containing a propellant and a stem for dispensing propellant from the reservoir, the stem extending axially along a longitudinal axis and having an open outlet end and a bore therethrough that is in fluid communication with the open outlet end and is selectively in fluid communication with the reservoir. The sub-assembly also includes a spray head member attachable to the stem. The spray head member is arranged to radially deflect propellent passing through the bore of the stem relative to the longitudinal axis.
摘要:
A medicament delivery device comprising a first container having a delivery outlet at a front end thereof and a first stopper axially moveable in the first container, the first stopper defining and separating a first chamber and a second chamber in the first container, where the first chamber is axially forwards of the first stopper and the second chamber is axially rearwards of the first stopper. The medicament delivery device further comprising a second container having a second stopper axially moveable in the second container, the second stopper defining and separating a third chamber and a fourth chamber in the second container, where the third chamber is axially forwards of the second stopper and the fourth chamber is axially rearwards of the second stopper, and where the third chamber has a vent outlet in fluid communication with a venting chamber. The first stopper is connected to the second stopper by a tensile member such that axially forwardly movement of the first stopper causes axially forwardly movement of the second stopper due to tensioning of the tensile member. The first stopper is driveable in an axially forwardly direction, the first chamber is configured to contain medicament for delivery through the delivery outlet as the first stopper moves axially forwards, the third chamber contains a viscous fluid that enters the venting chamber via the vent outlet as the second stopper moves axially forwards, and the fourth chamber has a pressure that is substantially equal to or greater than the pressure of the venting chamber. As the first stopper is driven axially forwardly, the tensile member is tensioned and causes the second stopper to move axially forwardly and the venting of viscous fluid into the venting chamber via the vent outlet retards the axially forward movement of the second stopper and the first stopper.
摘要:
An injection device having an outer housing configured to receive a syringe. The syringe has a barrel for containing medicament and a needle in fluid communication with the barrel. The device further has a needle shield axially moveable relative to the outer housing between a needle covering position and a needle exposing position and a biasing means to bias the needle shield axially forwardly toward the needle covering position. A locking sleeve, axially movable relative to the outer housing between a non-locking position and a locking position, selectively limits axial movement of the needle shield. In a first configuration, the needle shield is axially slideable within the locking sleeve to permit rearward axial movement of the needle shield from the needle covering position to the needle exposing position. In a subsequent configuration, the needle shield is prevented from moving axially rearwardly by interference with the locking sleeve, thereby maintaining the needle shield in the needle protecting position. The device may reduce the risk of needle stick injuries when compared to known injection devices and also may prevent unintentional re use of the device.
