Embodiment Construction

[0031] When terms such as "upper" and "lower", "right" and "left", "horizontal" and "vertical" or similar relative expressions are used hereinafter, these refer only to the drawings and not necessarily to the actual usage situation. The shown figures are schematic diagrams, for which reason the configuration of the different structures and their relative sizes are intended for exemplary purposes only. For example, figure 2 , image 3 and Figure 4 The exact positions of the switches in are shown schematically only and do not necessarily indicate the most suitable position of such switches relative to the actuating member in any given design.

[0032] figure 1 Shown is the proximal portion of a conventional pen-shaped drug delivery device typically used for administering insulin (ie, including the dose setting and mechanical expulsion mechanism, but not including the drug reservoir or cartridge). The embodiment shown represents the type of pen in which the spring is loaded ...

Abstract

A drug injector (1) comprising expelling means for expelling a dose of drug from a reservoir, a release member (13) for releasing the drug expelling means, and an actuation member (33) adapted to be moved by a user between an initial, intermediate and actuated position in which the release member is moved to release the drug expelling means. The injector further comprises an electronic capturing system for capturing data representing a dose of drug to be expelled, and a switch (38) for starting initialization of the data capture system, the switch being actuated when the actuation member is positioned in its intermediate position. A spring (34) provides a biasing force against movement of the actuation member between its initial and intermediate position. Thereby the electronic data capturing system is allowed to initialize during the actuation member's movement between the intermediate and the actuated position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system for collecting drug delivery data. In particular, the invention addresses the problem of generating trigger signals for electronic data acquisition coefficients. Background technique [0002] In the present disclosure, reference is made primarily to the treatment of diabetes by delivery of insulin, however this is only an exemplary use of the present invention. [0003] Drug injection devices have greatly improved the lives of patients who must self-administer drugs and biologics. Drug injection devices can take many forms including simple disposable devices which are simply ampoules with injection means, or they can be durable devices suitable for use with pre-filled cartridges. Regardless of their form and type, they have proven to be of great help in assisting patients in self-administering injectable drugs and biologics. They also greatly assist caregivers in administering injectable medicaments to those...
