Furthermore, the injection device comprises a cartridge holder for receiving the cartridge and for fixing at or in the housing of the injection device. Furthermore, the injection device comprises an elastically configured retaining element for securing the cartridge at or in a cartridge holder, wherein the retaining element is positioned on or in the housing in the proximal direction and is held in the distal direction.

The holding element is also designed in such a way that the holding element exerts a frictional force acting in the axial direction on the housing of the injection device for securing the cartridge on or in the cartridge holder and in the axial direction The frictional force acting upward acts against the force acting in the distal direction.
保持元件具有保持功能和/或紧固功能和/或定位功能。保持元件具有弹簧力。保持元件可以如下方式用于注射装置的一个部件在另一部件处或中的保持和/或紧固和/或定位,即,在压缩状态中的保持元件将部件中的一个保持在相对于另一个部件的确定的位置中。因此,保持元件可将注射装置的部件保持在注射装置中的限定的位置中。该限定的位置通过待保持的部件相对于注射装置的另一个部件的局部布置确定。注射装置的部件可以是卡式瓶支架中的卡式瓶。卡式瓶可以以如下方式优选借助于保持元件无间隙地保持在卡式瓶支架处或中,即,在卡式瓶支架中的卡式瓶在远端测在轴向止挡接触中且在近端侧借助于保持元件被保持。保持元件的弹簧力是在远端方向上作用的力,其作用在卡式瓶上以使卡式瓶优选无间隙地保持在卡式瓶支架处或中。通过这种方式,可以补偿制造和装配公差。此外,当放置注射针时,通过保持元件的弹簧力可防止卡式瓶相对于外壳或卡式瓶支架移动。The holding element has a holding function and/or a fastening function and/or a positioning function. The holding element has a spring force. The retaining element can be used for retaining and/or fastening and/or positioning of one part of the injection device at or in the other part in such a way that the retaining element in the compressed state holds one of the parts in relation to the other. In a defined location of a component. Thus, the holding element can hold a component of the injection device in a defined position in the injection device. This defined position is determined by the local arrangement of the component to be held relative to another component of the injection device. The part of the injection device may be a cartridge in a cartridge holder. The cartridge can be held at or in the cartridge holder, preferably by means of the retaining element, without play, in such a way that the cartridge in the cartridge holder is in contact with the axial stop at the distal end and at the The proximal side is held by means of a holding element. The spring force of the holding element is a force acting in the distal direction which acts on the cartridge in order to hold the cartridge preferably without play on or in the cartridge holder. In this way, manufacturing and assembly tolerances can be compensated. Furthermore, the cartridge is prevented from moving relative to the housing or the cartridge holder by the spring force of the retaining element when the injection needle is placed.
优选地,在轴向方向上起作用的摩擦力可至少部分、优选完全地补偿在远端方向上起作用的力。在轴向方向上起作用的摩擦力相对在远端方向上起作用的力起作用。在轴向方向上起作用的摩擦力可优选如此地相对在远端方向上起作用的力起作用,即,产生的力约为零。Preferably, the friction force acting in the axial direction can at least partially, preferably completely compensate the force acting in the distal direction. The frictional force acting in the axial direction acts against the force acting in the distal direction. The frictional force acting in the axial direction can preferably act relative to the force acting in the distal direction in such a way that the resulting force is approximately zero.
因此可实现如下,即,保持元件的持久的弹簧力不作用到卡式瓶上。由此防止如下,即,弹簧力由保持元件经由另一部件作用到注射装置上且因此将非期望的力施加到注射装置的部件上。因此,例如在注射装置中的卡扣连接、例如在注射装置的外壳与卡式瓶支架之间的卡扣连接的松弛可被最小化。此外如下是有利的,即,在卡式瓶相对卡式瓶支架在近端方向上的相对轴向位移的情形中,不仅保持元件的在远端方向上起作用的力而且保持元件的在轴向方向上起作用的摩擦力必须被克服。因此,注射装置的配量精度可被改善。It is thus possible to achieve that the permanent spring force of the retaining element does not act on the cartridge. This prevents the spring force from acting on the injection device from the retaining element via another component and thus exerting undesired forces on components of the injection device. Thus, slack in eg a snap connection in the injection device, eg between the housing of the injection device and the cartridge holder, can be minimized. Furthermore, it is advantageous that in the case of a relative axial displacement of the cartridge relative to the cartridge holder in the proximal direction, not only the forces acting in the distal direction of the retaining element but also the axial force of the retaining element The friction force acting in the direction has to be overcome. Thus, the dosing accuracy of the injection device can be improved.

为了调整或拉起剂量,用户在近端方向上拉动配量按钮(4c)。在此,配量套筒(4)轴向在近端方向上被移动。由于在配量套筒(4)与旋转套筒(2)之间的螺纹接合,旋转套筒(2)在第一转动方向上转动直至旋转套筒(2)的突起(不可见)与导向套筒(1)的第二径向向内伸出的突起(不可见)在止挡接触中。在此,旋转套筒(2)的接合元件(2a)的头部(不可见)的平坦的侧面(不可见)滑动经过螺纹杆(3)的齿(3a)的平坦的侧面(3a')且在此到达相邻的齿隙(不可见)中。导向套筒(1)的接合元件(1a)的头部(不可见)的陡峭的侧面(不可见)与螺纹杆(3)的齿(3a)的陡峭的侧面(不可见)在止挡接触中,从而螺纹杆(3)被抗扭地保持。被安装在配量套筒(4)处的显示器(4d)通过外壳窗口(6d)给用户显示注射装置在被拉起的位置中。To adjust or pull up the dose, the user pulls the dose button (4c) in the proximal direction. Here, the metering sleeve ( 4 ) is displaced axially in the proximal direction. Due to the threaded engagement between the dosing sleeve (4) and the swivel sleeve (2), the swivel sleeve (2) turns in the first rotational direction until the protrusion (not visible) of the swivel sleeve (2) meets the guide A second radially inwardly projecting protrusion (not visible) of the sleeve (1) is in stop contact. Here, the flat side (not visible) of the head (not visible) of the engagement element (2a) of the rotating sleeve (2) slides past the flat side (3a') of the tooth (3a) of the threaded rod (3) And here it goes into the adjacent tooth gap (not visible). The steep side (not visible) of the head (not visible) of the engaging element (1a) of the guide sleeve (1) comes into contact with the steep side (not visible) of the tooth (3a) of the threaded rod (3) at the stop , so that the threaded rod (3) is held in a rotationally fixed manner. A display (4d) mounted on the dosing sleeve (4) shows the user via a housing window (6d) that the injection device is in the raised position.
在调整或拉起剂量的情形中,旋转套筒(2)的接合元件(2a)被径向偏转。在此,旋转套筒(2)的配对联接齿部(2e)与锁定环(11)的联接齿部(11c)在接合中。通过在旋转套筒(2)与锁定环(11)之间的联接,锁定环(11)和旋转套筒(2)在第一转动方向上相对于外壳(6)或导向套筒(1)被转动。锁定环(11)的棘轮齿(11a)滑动经过导向套筒(1)的棘轮齿部(不可见)。锁定环(11)的棘轮齿(11a)仅可在第一转动方向上相对于导向套筒(1)滑动经过导向套筒(1)的棘轮齿部(1g),而在第二转动方向上的相对转动被防止。旋转套筒(2)的接合元件(2a)被如此长地径向偏转,直至接合元件的头部(不可见)到达螺纹杆(3)的齿隙(不可见)中,或者直至经确定的剂量完全被调整或拉起。因此可防止如下,即,不完全被调整或拉起的剂量可被倒出。In case of adjusting or pulling up the dose, the engagement element (2a) of the rotating sleeve (2) is deflected radially. Here, the mating coupling toothing ( 2 e ) of the rotary sleeve ( 2 ) is in engagement with the coupling toothing ( 11 c ) of the locking ring ( 11 ). Through the coupling between the rotating sleeve (2) and the locking ring (11), the locking ring (11) and the rotating sleeve (2) are relative to the housing (6) or the guide sleeve (1) in the first rotational direction is turned. The ratchet teeth (11a) of the locking ring (11) slide past the ratchet teeth of the guide sleeve (1) (not visible). The ratchet teeth (11a) of the locking ring (11) can only slide past the ratchet teeth (1g) of the guide sleeve (1) in the first direction of rotation relative to the guide sleeve (1) and in the second direction of rotation relative rotation is prevented. The engagement element (2a) of the rotary sleeve (2) is deflected radially until the head of the engagement element (not visible) reaches the tooth gap (not visible) of the threaded rod (3), or until a determined The dose is adjusted or pulled up entirely. It can thus be prevented that an incompletely adjusted or drawn-up dose can be poured out.
配量套筒(4)的拉起运动和螺纹杆(3)的倒出运动被转换。在配量套筒(4)与旋转套筒(2)之间的螺纹连接(4b,2b)的螺纹升程(Gewindesteigung)大于在螺纹杆(3)与外壳(6)之间的螺纹连接(3b,6i)的螺纹升程。The pull-up movement of the metering sleeve (4) and the pour-out movement of the threaded rod (3) are converted. The screw connection (4b, 2b) between the metering sleeve (4) and the rotary sleeve (2) has a greater thread lift (Gewindesteigung) than the screw connection ( 3b, 6i) screw lift.
为了倒出经确定的剂量,用户在远端方向上按压倒出按钮(5),其中,配量套筒(4)在远端方向上被轴向移动。旋转套筒(2)在相反于第一转动方向的转动方向上、即在第二转动方向上转动,直至旋转套筒(2)的突起(不可见)与导向套筒(1)的第一径向向内伸出的突起(不可见)到达止挡接触。旋转套筒(2)的接合元件(2a)的头部的陡峭的侧面(不可见)与螺纹杆(3)的齿(3a)的陡峭的侧面(不可见)在止挡接触中且将扭矩传递到螺纹杆(3)上。螺纹杆(3)由此由于在外壳(6)的内螺纹(6i)与螺纹杆(3)的外螺纹(3b)之间的螺纹连接在远端方向上拧紧。在此,旋转套筒(2)的接合元件(2a)的头部(不可见)轴向沿着螺纹杆(3)的齿隙(不可见)滑动。锁定环(11)的联接齿部(11c)与旋转套筒(2)的配对联接齿部(2e)分离,从而旋转套筒(2)相对于锁定环(11)可在第二转动方向上转动。锁定环(11)的棘轮齿(11c)伸出到导向套筒(1)的棘轮齿部(1g)中。导向套筒(1)的头部(不可见)的平坦的侧面滑动经过螺纹杆的齿(不可见)的平坦的侧面。在此,经由被轴向固定地安装在螺纹杆(3)处的法兰(7)在远端方向上顶撞由卡式瓶(10)容纳的塞子(10b,例如在图4a中)。塞子(10b,例如在图4a中)可经由被固定在卡式瓶支架处的注射针(不可见)挤出液体产品。To pour out the determined dose, the user presses the pour button (5) in the distal direction, wherein the dosing sleeve (4) is moved axially in the distal direction. The swivel sleeve (2) is rotated in the opposite direction of rotation to the first, i.e. in the second direction of rotation, until the projection (not visible) of the swivel sleeve (2) meets the first Radially inwardly protruding projections (not visible) reach the stop contacts. The steep side (not visible) of the head of the engaging element (2a) of the rotating sleeve (2) is in stop contact with the steep side (not visible) of the tooth (3a) of the threaded rod (3) and torque Transfer to the threaded rod (3). The threaded rod (3) is thus screwed in the distal direction due to the threaded connection between the internal thread (6i) of the housing (6) and the external thread (3b) of the threaded rod (3). Here, the head (not visible) of the engagement element (2a) of the rotating sleeve (2) slides axially along the tooth gap (not visible) of the threaded rod (3). The coupling teeth (11c) of the locking ring (11) are separated from the mating coupling teeth (2e) of the rotary sleeve (2), so that the rotary sleeve (2) can be rotated in a second direction relative to the locking ring (11) turn. The ratchet teeth (11c) of the locking ring (11) protrude into the ratchet teeth (1g) of the guide sleeve (1). The flat sides of the head (not visible) of the guide sleeve (1) slide over the flat sides of the teeth (not visible) of the threaded rod. Here, the bung ( 10 b , eg in FIG. 4 a ) received by the cartridge ( 10 ) is abutted in the distal direction via the flange ( 7 ), which is axially fixedly mounted on the threaded rod ( 3 ). The stopper (10b, eg in Fig. 4a) can squeeze out the liquid product through an injection needle (not visible) secured at the cartridge holder.
在最后的剂量从注射装置中被倒出之后,旋转套筒(2)的两个旋转套筒止挡(不可见)与螺纹杆(3)的相应的两个螺纹杆止挡(3c)在止挡接触中。因此,进一步的剂量不可经由配量套筒(4)被拉起,因为旋转套筒(2)的旋转被阻止。After the last dose has been poured out of the injection device, the two rotary sleeve stops (not visible) of the rotary sleeve (2) are in contact with the corresponding two threaded rod stops (3c) of the threaded rod (3). The stop is in contact. Consequently, further doses cannot be pulled up via the dosing sleeve (4), since the rotation of the rotary sleeve (2) is blocked.
