Definitions
- the invention relates to an injection device of the kind having a housing accommodating a cartridge containing fluid medicine sufficient for a number of dosed injections, which doses are injected by advancing a piston rod forward inside the cartridge.
- the invention especially relates to such an injection device having a dose setting limiter pre- venting a dose larger than the medicament remaining in the cartridge to be set.
- a prior art dose setting limiter is disclosed in WO 01.19434.
- This publication show in figure 2 a limiting mechanism which prevents the setting of a dose, which exceeds the amount of liquid left in a cartridge of an injection device.
- the injection device is the type where a dose is set by rotating a dose setting member relative to a driver and away from a fixed stop in the injection device.
- the dose setting member connects the driver such that the dose setting member can be rotated in one direction without rotating the driver.
- the dose is injected by rotating back the dose setting member which during the backwards rotation carries the driver with it. Rotating the driver causes the piston rod to move forward inside the cartridge and expel some of the liquid contained in the cartridge.
- the driver is provided with a track having a length which is related to the total amount of liquid in the cartridge and which track is engaged by a track follower operational coupled to the dose setting member to follow rotation of this dose setting member.
- a track follower operational coupled to the dose setting member to follow rotation of this dose setting member.
- the injection device disclosed in WO 01.19434 is particular suitable for injecting insulin.
- Insulin is usually produced with 100 international units (IU) of insulin pr. millilitre fluid, which are normally referred to as U100 insulin.
- the injection device shown in figure 1 of WO 01.19434 has a scale with 50 indications provided on a full circle.
- One indication corresponds to one IU of insulin; it is therefore possible to set a maximum dose volume of 50 IU in one setting. All the dose indications on the scale are equidistant.
- the length of the track of the driver determines how many I U it is possible for the user to set all together.
- the usual volume of the cartridge used in such a device is 3,0 ml. In terms of insulin this volume equals 300 IU when the cartridge is filled with a U100 insulin, the length of the track is therefore set to correspond to 300 IU. Since only dose volumes containing a full number of IU can be set and administered from the injection device, the last dose to be expelled before the track follower abuts the end of the track in the driver will always be a full number of International Units (IU) and at least one full IU.
- IU International Units
- the dose volumes to be injected are fairly large, which is no problem with the injection device described. It is however beneficial to provide injection devices with large incremental dose settings with an additional air shot dose setting provided between the zero setting and the first setting. Now when introducing such non-equidistant dose setting, the prior art end of content feature is no longer suitable.
- one large incremental dose setting corresponds to 0,05 ml fluid medicament (i.e. 5 IU if the medicament is a U100 insulin)
- a total of 60 doses are available in a standard 3 ml. cartridge.
- the prior art end of content feature will then allow 60 full doses to be set.
- an air shot dose setting is provided which e.g. equals 0,02 ml fluid medicament (i.e. 2 IU U100 insulin) the user could end in a situation where the prior art end of content feature will stop the setting of a dose when only a part of a large incremental dose has been set with the result that the last dose is not a full dose.
- e.g. 55 dose units of 0, 05 ml i.e.
- the present invention aims to solve this problem by providing a trustworthy synchronized end of content feature which will ensure that the last dose will always be a full dose also when the device is operating with non-equidistant dose volumes.
- the general concept of the present invention is to synchronize the end of content feature with the dose setting mechanism of an injection device operating with large non-equistant dose volumes.
- this is achieved by providing an arrangement comprising a stop member which is operational coupled to the dose setting member and at least one barb which is provided on either the dose setting and injection mechanism or on the housing.
- the stop member is provided as an appendix on an arm connected to the coupling ring, it is ensured that the stop member can extend beyond the peripheral boundaries of the driver and interact with the dose volume indentations provided ei- ther on the housing or on the dose setting and injecting mechanism.
- the arm When, as disclosed in claim 4, the arm is provided with a cam being guided in a spiral track in the driver, it is ensured that the movement of arm and thereby the appendix is synchronized with the rotation of the driver.
- the stop member is guided into abutment with one of the indentations when there is less than one unit of medicament left in the cartridge.
- the end of content feature is henceforth a result of the length of the track and the position of the indentations.
- the user can select, as specified in claim 6, it is ensured that the appendix will pass over an indentation when there are more than one full dose left in the cartridge but be arrested by an indentation when there is less than one full dose of medicine left in cartridge.

- Figure 8 Shows an embodiment of the invention with an empty cartridge.
- the figures are schematic and simplified for clarity, and they just show details, which are essential to the understanding of the invention, while other details are left out.
- the same reference numerals are used for identical or corresponding parts.
- distal end is meant to refer to the end of the injection device carrying the injection needle to be inserted into the patient
- proximal end is meant to refer to the opposite end pointing away from the patients body when injecting the medicament.
- the injection device 1 disclosed in figure 1 comprises a dose and injection mechanism 2 in- sertable into a housing 3. Also insertable into the housing 3 is the cartridge 4 containing the fluid medicament. A dose setting button 5 and an injection button 6 is connected to the dose and injecting mechanism 2. The injection button 6 is provided with a toothed rack 7, which operates the dose setting and injection mechanism 2 to deliver a dose.
- Figure 2 discloses the dose setting and injecting mechanism 2 according to the invention.
- the toothed rack 7 of the injection button 6 engages the coupling ring wheel 9 through a slot in the rod guiding part 8.
- the coupling ring wheel 9 is integral with the coupling ring 10, which coupling ring 10 engages the driver 11. This engagement is obtained by one or more barbs 12 (seen in figure 3) located on the inside surface of the coupling ring 10 engaging the outer toothing 13 of the driver 11.
- the direction in which the driver 11 can move freely is the direction in which the piston rod 9 is moved forward inside the cartridge 4.
- the toothed axis 15 of the driver 11 engages the second gear wheel 16.
- the second gear wheel 16 engages the first gear wheel 17 which transmits the rotational movement to the piston rod 18.
- the inside surface 19 of the rod guiding part 8 is left as a smooth surface.
- the smooth inside surface 19 is however provided with a number of indentations 20, the use of which will be explained later.
- the dose to be delivered is first set by turning the dose setting button 5 in the clockwise direction.
- the backside of the dose setting button 5 is provided with a not shown notch which interfaces the coupling ring 10 such that the coupling ring 10 moves with the dose setting button 5.
- the not shown notch fills the opening in the coupling ring 10 between the first bulging end 21 and the second bulging end 22.
- the driver 11 is prevented from rotation by the protrusion 14 and the barbs 12 rides over the outer toothing 13 on the driver 11. Since the coupling ring wheel 9 interacts with the toothed rack 7 of the injection button 6, this injection button is lifted away from the housing 3 when the dose setting button 5 is rotated.
- the dose setting button 5 has a number of equidistant dose setting indentations 30, 31 , 32, 33 which clicks on the clicking protrusion 34.
- the first indentation 30 is the zero setting whereas the second dose setting indentation 31 equals one full dose, the third dose setting indentation 32 represents two full doses.
- the whole peripheral area of the circular dose setting button 5 can be equipped with similar indentations. When these doses are large, it is beneficial to provide a separate air shot indentation 34 representing a somewhat smaller dose.
- the injection button 6 When delivering the set dose, the injection button 6 is pressed back home to its original position.
- the toothed rack 7 of the injection button 6 forces the coupling ring 10 to rotate thereby translating the longitudinal movement of the injection button 7 to a rotational movement of the coupling ring 10.
- the barbs 12 on the inside surface of the coupling ring 10 interacts with the outer toothing 13 of the driver 11 hence rotating the driver 11 in the anti-clockwise direction.
- the rotation of the driver 11 is transmitted through the second gear wheel 16 to the first gear wheel 17, which first gear wheel 17 engages the piston rod 18.
- Rotation of the first gearwheel 17 causes the piston rod 18 to move forward inside the cartridge 4 thereby expelling the set dose of medicine through a not shown conduit connected to the distal end of the cartridge 4.
- the dose setting member 5 is simply rotated in the anti-clockwise direction.
- the coupling ring 10 is connected to the coupling ring wheel 9 through a solid member 23 and a flexible member 24. Since rotation of the dose setting member 5 in the anti-clockwise direction causes the force to be applied onto the flexible member 24, the coupling ring 10 will expand outwardly allowing the barbs 12 to slide over the outer toothing 13 of the driver 11. Hence the driver 11 is not affected by this backward rotation of the coupling ring 10.
- the inside of the coupling ring 10 is further provided with an arm 25 which is flexible hinged to the coupling ring 10 as disclosed in figure 3-6.
- the arm 25 is equipped with a cam 26 engaging a spiral shaped track 27 provided on the driver 11.
- the arm 25 is provided with an appendix 28 which will be outside the periphery of the driver 11 when the cam 26 is in located in the outer winding of the track 27.
- the inside surface 19 of the rod guiding part 8 is provided with a number of indentations 20 each having a steep front. These indentations 20 can be applied along the entire surface or restricted to the area which is used for setting up a dose for the specific injection device.
- the circular distance between the indentations 20 equals the size of the doses which the user can set using the dose setting button i.e. the distance between the barbs 20 equals the distance between the dose setting indentations 30, 31, 32, 33 on the dose setting member 5 such that the end of content feature is synchronized with the dose setting scale.
- the appendix 28 will abut an indentation 20 when there is less than one unit of medicine in the cartridge 4, while the appendix 28 will be able to pass over the indentation 20 when there is one or more units left in the cartridge 4.
- the length of the spiral track 27 is synchronized with the content in the cartridge 4 such that the cam 26 is guided out through the track opening 29 when the cartridge 4 is almost empty.
- Figure 7 and 8 discloses an embodiment of the invention comprising a housing 50 accommodating a cartridge 51 containing a fluid medicament.
- the piston rod 52 comprises a rigid elongated toothed rack 53.
- the dose setting and injecting mechanism comprises the toothed rack 53 and a protrusion 54 provided on the dose setting button 55.
- the engagement between the toothed rack 53 and the protrusion 54 is such that the protrusion 54 slides over the toothed rack 53 when the dose setting button 55 is pulled away from the housing 50 and that the toothed rack 53 and thereby the piston rod 52 moves forward together with the dose setting button 55 when a dose is administered.
- the dose setting button 55 is used for setting up a dose by pulling the button 55 away from the housing 50, but acts as an injection button when it is pressed towards the housing 50.
- a number of dose setting barbs 56 are provided in the wall of the housing 50, which indentations is engages by a ratchet 57 operational connected to the dose setting button 55.
- the length between the indentations 56 expresses the size of the doses the user can select.
- a stop member 58 is connected horizontally movable to the dose setting member 55.
- a sloping surface 59 is provided against which sloping surface 59 the stop member 58 is pressed when the piston rod 52 is moved to the distal end of the cartridge 51.
- a number of indentations 60 is provided in the housing 50 with a distance that equals the dis- tance between the dose setting barbs 56.
- the stop member 58 will slide over an indentations 60 if there is more than one dose unit of medicine in the cartridge 51 , but be arrested by an indentations 60 if there is less than one dose unit of medicine left in cartridge 51.
- the toothed rack 53 is prevented from moving backward relative to the housing by a oneway protrusion 61 engaging the toothed rack 53.
