The present invention relates to a dial-down mechanism for an injection device comprising a torsion spring for assisting injection of a dose of medicament from the injection device, the dial-down mechanism comprising dial-up cam arranged to receive and engage with a dial-up key, wherein the dial-up cam and the dial-up key are adapted to, upon rotation of a dose setting member in a first direction, cooperate to strain the torsion spring of the injection device, and a dial-down cam arranged to receive and engage with a dial-down key, wherein the dial-down cam and the dial-down key are adapted to, upon rotation of the dose setting member in a second direction, cooperate to release the torsion spring of the injection device, the second rotation direction being opposite to the first rotation direction.

0. 11. A method for using a wind up injection pen, the method comprising the steps of
rotating a first element in a first direction, the direction being a dial up direction;
causing a second element to be rotated in the same direction as the first element;
straining a torsional spring;
moving an arm that is in engagement with one edge to a neighboring edge, wherein when the arm is engaged with an edge it prevents the torsional spring from unwinding;
rotating the first element in a second direction opposite the first direction;
moving a pick-up key and radially lifting the arm out of engagement with an edge and when the arm is fully disengaged from an edge allowing the second rotatable element to rotate in the second direction and allowing the strain on the spring to be decreased.
1. A dial-down mechanism for an injection device comprising a torsion spring (18) for assisting injection of a dose of medicament from the injection device, the dial-down mechanism comprising
dial-up cam (15) arranged to receive and engage with a dial-up key (11), wherein the dial-up cam (15) and the dial-up key (11) are adapted to, upon rotation of a dose setting member in a first direction, cooperate to strain the torsion spring (18) of the injection device, and
a dial-down cam (16) arranged to receive and engage with a dial-down key (12), wherein the dial-down cam (16) and the dial-down key (12) are adapted to, upon rotation of the dose setting member in a second direction, cooperate to release the torsion spring (18) of the injection device, the second rotation direction being opposite to the first rotation direction,
wherein the dial-up and dial-down cams form part of regions of the same track,
further comprising an arm wherein the dial-up and dial-down keys are both located on the same arm, said keys being adapted to engage and cooperate with dial-up and dial-down cams of the same track.
2. A dial-down mechanism according to
3. A dial-down mechanism according to
5. A dial-down mechanism according to
6. A dial-down mechanism according to
8. A dial-down mechanism according to
10. A medication delivery device according to
|
The dial-down keys 12 are integrated with the flexible arms 19. These arms are fabricated of a resilient material such as for example plastic. The flexible arms 19 with integrated dial-down keys 12 form an integral part of the ratchet 13. Thus, the ratchet including arms and dial-down keys may preferably be fabricated of the same material, such as of plastic. In order to bias the dial-down keys 12 against the teeth 20 of the nut 10 a torsion spring 18 is arranged coaxially with the ratchet 13. An opening 21 is provided in the center part of the nut 10. The side wall of this opening is provided with threads 22 which are adapted to engage with a threaded outer surface of a piston rod (not shown).
A dose is set by rotating the dose setting member 30 and the nut 32 whereby the torsion spring 35 is strained. The dose setting member 30 is prevented from returning to its initial position due the toothing mechanism 37 positioned between the nut 32 and the drive member 33. In case the user wants to reduce a preset dose, the dose setting member 30 is simply rotated in the opposite direction. The interaction between ratchet 38 and nut 32 during dial-down is described in connection with
When a dose is to be set, the cam follower 42 engages with cam surface 46. As a result the torsion spring 43 is strained because the ratchet 44 is prevented from reversing due to the toothing 48. During dial-up the ratchet 44 will move up and down along cam surface 46 as the upper and lower parts of the toothing 48 rotate relative to each other. In case of dial-down the cam surface 47 will lift and thereby release the upper part of the toothing from the lower part of the toothing thereby the ratchet 44 is allowed to rotate an angle corresponding to one tooth.
