115 results about "Autoinjector" patented technology

An autoinjector (or auto-injector) is a medical device designed to deliver a dose of a particular drug. Most autoinjectors are spring-loaded syringes. By design, autoinjectors are easy to use and are intended for self-administration by patients, or administration by untrained personnel. The site of injection depends on the drug loaded, but it typically is administered into the thigh or the buttocks. The injectors were initially designed to overcome the hesitation associated with self-administration of the needle-based drug delivery device.

Autoinjector

An autoinjector (1) is disclosed. The autoinjector comprises a main casing (10); a cartridge assembly (30) disposed within the main casing (10). The cartridge assembly may include a cartridge (3) land a needle (40). A power pack (100) is disposed within the main casing (10) for moving the cartridge (31) and the needle (40) from a storage position to an injection position when actuated. An actuation unit (50) comprises a cartridge container (52) and a needle cover (60) disposed between the cartridge container (52) and the main casing (10). The actuation unit (50) is operably coupled to the power pack (110) and retractable from a first position to an actuation position for actuating the power pack. The needle cover (60) is extendable to an extended position covering the needle (40) when the cartridge (31) and the needle (40) are in the injection position. A safety cap (20) is removable from a mounted position on a front end of the main casing (10) to expose a front portion of the actuation unit (50).

A reusable auto-injector

This invention relates to a reusable autoinjector, belonging to the field of drug injection technology. The reusable autoinjector provided by this invention, through the systematic integration of an innovative anti-accidental contact mechanism and a needle depth adjustment mechanism, not only effectively solves the core safety and accuracy challenges in reusable scenarios, but also produces significant technical effects through the synergistic effect of the two mechanisms. It is the first invention to integrate two major functions—active mechanical anti-accidental contact and multi-level stable depth adjustment—into a single reusable device.
