Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of drug delivery devices, and particularly relates to a drug delivery device with a last-dose protection function. Background Art
[0002] With the development of insulin pen technology, the current requirements for insulin pens already include: (1) enabling multiple small-dose injections, generally capable of injecting at least 5 times with a maximum single-injection dose of (60 IU); (2) facilitating the adjustment of the single-injection dose, with an adjustment range of 0 - 60 IU and high adjustment accuracy (up to 1 IU); (3) when adjusting the dose, it can be visually scaled or the pen can emit a sound to facilitate self-operation by patients with poor eyesight or even blindness; (4) during injection, the operation is simple, and the pen also emits a sound during the injection process to indicate that the injection is in progress.
[0003] CN117224781A discloses a drug delivery device with dose setting and callback functions, including a cartridge holder. The rear end of the cartridge holder is connected to a housing. A screw is installed inside the housing to move forward and deliver drugs according to the set dose during injection; a rotor, threadedly connected to the screw, is used to rotate and drive the screw to move axially forward during injection; a rotating shaft, the front end of which is connected to the rear end inside the rotor, is used to drive the rotor to rotate during injection and can axially move relative to the rotor, and can cooperate with the screw to control the last-dose setting during the axial movement; a differential nut, installed outside the rear end of the rotating shaft, is used for differential adjustment and driving the axial movement of the rotating shaft; a differential screw, fixed inside the housing and arranged between the differential nut and the dose setting cylinder, is threadedly connected to both the differential nut and the dose setting cylinder; a dose setting cylinder, which can engage with the bushing and drive the bushing to rotate during injection, and is also used to drive the differential nut to rotate synchronously; a bushing, connected to the inner side of the rear end of the rotating shaft, is used to drive the rotating shaft to rotate during injection. When performing the last-dose setting with this structure, when the dose setting cylinder is rotated clockwise, the synchronously rotated differential nut clockwise drives the rotating shaft to axially displace proximally. When the step provided inside the rotating shaft abuts against the flange of the push rod, the rotating shaft cannot continue to move proximally. Since the rotating shaft and the differential nut are circumferentially connected, when the rotating shaft cannot move proximally, the differential nut cannot move proximally either. And since the differential nut and the dose setting sleeve are axially grooved connected, the dose setting sleeve cannot rotate clockwise either. However, the user can still resist the resistance and continue to set 2 - 3 unit doses, resulting in incorrect dose setting. Summary of the Invention

[0037] See Figures 1-9, this embodiment provides a drug delivery device with last-dose protection, including a housing 17. A dose cylinder 2 for setting the dose is installed inside the housing 17. A dose button 5 capable of driving the dose cylinder to rotate is installed at the rear end of the dose cylinder 2. A clutch 6 is arranged between the dose button 5 and the dose cylinder 2. After the clutch 6 and the dose cylinder 2 are engaged, the dose cylinder 2 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the dose button 5 to achieve dose setting. After the clutch 5 is separated from the dose cylinder 2, the dose cylinder 2 can rotate freely to achieve dose injection. When the clutch 6 and the dose button 5 rotate synchronously and the dose cylinder 2 cannot rotate, the dose button 5 and the clutch 6 spin in place. Specifically, a clutch 6 is arranged between the dose button 5 and the dose cylinder 2. A protruding tooth 22 is arranged at the end of the dose cylinder 2. An engaging internal tooth 62 that cooperates with the protruding tooth 22 is arranged inside the clutch 6. A ratchet tooth 61 is arranged on the clutch 6. An inner ring ratchet tooth 51 that cooperates with the ratchet tooth 61 is arranged in a circle inside the dose button 5. The dose button 5 and the clutch 6 are circumferentially connected. When the engaging internal tooth 62 and the protruding tooth 22 are engaged, the rotation of the dose button 5 can drive the dose cylinder 2 to rotate to achieve dose adjustment. During injection, the clutch 6 is separated from the dose cylinder 2, and the dose cylinder 2 can rotate freely to achieve dose injection. When the dose cylinder 2 cannot rotate after the drug is injected, due to the setting of the clutch 6, when the dose button 5 is rotated continuously, the dose button 5 and the clutch 6 spin in place. Thus, no matter how much force is applied, the force is unloaded by the clutch 6, and the dose setting cannot be continued by breaking through the resistance, thereby controlling the incorrect setting of the dose.
[0038] In this embodiment, the outer shell 17 is connected to the rear end of the cartridge holder 3. A medicated core is installed inside the cartridge holder 3. A detachable pen cap 18 is provided at the front end of the cartridge holder 3. Inside the outer shell 17, a screw 9, a rotor 4, a rotating shaft 15, a differential nut 1, a fixed cylinder 10, and a bushing 14 are installed. A push plate 19 is installed at the front end of the screw 9. The rotor 4 is threadedly connected to the screw 9 and is used to rotationally drive the screw 9 to axially move forward to deliver medicine during injection, and can cooperate with the fixed cylinder 10 for injection sound generation; the fixed cylinder 10 is fixed inside the outer shell 17 and is disposed between the differential nut 1 and the dosing cylinder 2. The fixed cylinder 10 is threadedly connected to both the differential nut 1 and the dosing cylinder 2 for differential adjustment, and is rotationally connected to the rotor 4 and axially limits the rotor 4; the front end of the rotating shaft 15 is connected to the inside of the rear end of the rotor 4 and is used to drive the rotor 4 to rotate during injection, and it can axially move relative to the rotor 4. The rotating shaft 15 can cooperate with the screw 9 to control the final dose setting during axial movement; the differential nut 1 is installed inside the dosing cylinder 2 and can rotate synchronously with the dosing cylinder 2 and can drive the rotating shaft 15 to axially move; the bushing 14 is connected to the inner side of the rear end of the differential nut 1 and axially moves under the drive of the differential nut 1; a clutch gear 8 is installed between the bushing 14 and the dosing cylinder 2. The clutch gear 8 is fixedly connected to the bushing 14. The clutch gear 8 is meshed with the dosing cylinder 2. The clutch gear 8 can cooperate with the dosing cylinder 2 for dose setting sound generation during axial movement, and is meshed with the dosing cylinder 2 during injection and then driven by the dosing cylinder 2 to rotate the clutch gear 8 and the bushing 14 synchronously; a dose button 5 capable of driving the dosing cylinder 2 to rotate is installed inside the rear end of the dosing cylinder 2. An injection spring 7 is provided between the dose button 5 and the bushing 14.
[0039] In this embodiment, a lens 16 for observing the dose setting is snap-fitted on the outer shell 17. A stop bar is provided at one snap-fitting part of the lens 16. A stop portion 21 capable of cooperating with the stop bar to limit the maximum dose setting is provided on the outer surface of the dosing cylinder 2. The present invention is limited by the cooperation of the stop bar provided on the lens 16 and the stop portion 21 of the dosing cylinder 2, ensuring the reliability of the limitation, that is, when the stop bar abuts against the stop portion 21, no matter how much rotational force is applied, the dosing cylinder 2 cannot continue to rotate to increase the dose. The stop bar extends along both ends of the snap-fitting part, and the end of the snap-fitting part protrudes from the side surface of the stop bar. The stop portion 21 is provided with a groove 23 for accommodating the snap-fitting part. When the stop portion 21 abuts against the stop bar, the snap-fitting part enters the mouth of the groove 23 to ensure the reliability of the abutment.
[0040] Specifically, the outer surface of the rotor 4 in this embodiment is provided with protruding one-way ratchet teeth. The inner ring of the fixed cylinder 10 is evenly provided with notches. The one-way ratchet teeth cooperate with the notches during rotation to inject and generate sound. The one-way ratchet teeth limit the rotation direction of the rotor 4 to only rotate counterclockwise. It is possible to set that each rotation of a unit will emit a prompt sound to remind the user of the injection dose. The meshing teeth are evenly arranged in the axial direction of the dose cylinder 2 and the clutch teeth 8. When the dose cylinder 2 rotates, the meshing teeth on the dose cylinder 2 and the meshing teeth on the clutch teeth 8 are in sliding fit to set the dose and generate sound. The rotor 4 is axially groove-connected to the rotating shaft 15, the rotating shaft 15 is axially groove-connected to the bushing 14, and the differential nut 1 is axially groove-connected to the dose cylinder 2. The rotating shaft 15 is circumferentially ring-connected to the differential nut 1, and the differential nut 1 is circumferentially ring-connected to the bushing 14. Among them, the axial groove connection is a structure in which a rib or rib platform cooperates with a long strip-shaped groove, and the circumferential ring connection of two sections is a structure in which a ring rib or ring platform cooperates with a ring groove or ring rib. The circumferential ring connection between the rotor 4 and the fixed cylinder 10 restricts the axial movement of the rotor 4, and the rotor 4 can rotate relative to the fixed cylinder 10. The circumferential ring connection between the rotating shaft 15 and the differential nut 1 drives the rotating shaft 15 to move axially through the differential nut 1, and the rotating shaft 15 and the differential nut 1 can rotate relative to each other. The rear end of the screw 9 is provided with a flange, and the front end inside of the rotating shaft 15 is provided with a step. The flange and the step can be in contact for limit control of the final dose setting.
[0041] In this embodiment, a cover plate 13 is fixedly installed at the end of the fixed cylinder 10. A return knob 12 is meshingly connected to the cover plate 13. The return knob 12 is sleeved outside the screw 9. A return spring 11 is arranged between the return knob 12 and the cover plate 13. When the return knob 12 is disengaged from the meshing state, the screw 9 can be driven to move back to its original position under the drive of the return spring 11.
[0042] When adjusting the dose of the present invention: Rotate the dose knob 5, and the dose cylinder 2 and the differential nut 1 will rotate synchronously and move upward, and the bushing 14, the clutch teeth 8, and the rotating shaft 15 will move upward at the same time. At this time, the clutch teeth 8 will jump and make a sound (in the natural state, the clutch teeth 8 and the dose cylinder 2 are in a biting state). When the single maximum dose is adjusted, the rotation of the dose cylinder 2 is blocked by the blocking strip on the lens 16.
[0043] When injecting the dose of the present invention: Hold down the dose knob 5, and the clutch 6 will disengage from the dose cylinder 2. The three teeth of the rotating shaft 15, the clutch teeth 6, and the dose cylinder 2 will be in a biting state. At this time, the rotating shaft 15, the clutch teeth 6, the differential nut 1, and the bushing 14 will rotate and move downward along with the dose cylinder 2. The bushing 14 will drive the rotor 4 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotor 4 causes the screw 9 to move axially forward.
[0044] When replacing the medicine core of the present invention: after removing the medicine core, the teeth of the knob 12 and the teeth of the cover plate 13 are disengaged from the bite, and the knob 12 can be rotated freely. When rotating, the screw rod 9 is driven to rotate and can return to its original position. After reaching the position, install the medicine core and it can be used again.
[0045] A clutch 6 is added between the dose cylinder 2 and the dose button 5 of the present invention to strictly control the dose setting; the rotating shaft 15 can cooperate with the screw rod 9 during the axial movement to control the final dose setting and prevent sub-dose injection; the dose setting process and the injection process are realized through the cooperation of the components between the dose cylinder 2, the fixed cylinder 10, the differential nut 1, the rotating shaft 15, the bushing 14, and the rotor 4, and the structure is simple and reasonable; the rotor 4 cooperates with the fixed cylinder 10 to make a sound during injection to remind the user of the injection dose; the dose cylinder 2 cooperates with the clutch teeth 8 to make a sound to remind the user of the dose setting. After returning the screw rod 9 to its original position by retracting the knob 12, replace the medicine core and continue to use.
