AUTOINJECTOR

摘要

Describe is an autoinjector (1) comprising a case (2) adapted to hold a medicament container having a needle (4), a needle shroud (7) telescopically coupled to the case (2) and movable between a first extended position (FEP) relative to the case (2) in which the needle (4) is covered and a retracted position (RP) relative to the case (2) in which the needle (4) is exposed, and a plunger (10) rotationally and slidably disposed in the case (2). The plunger (10) is rotatable relative to the case (2) between a first rotational position in which the plunger (10) is engaged to the case (2) and a second rotational position in which the plunger (10) disengages the case (2). The needle shroud (7) is operably coupled to the plunger (10). When the needle shroud (7) translates from the first extended position (FEP) to the retracted position (RP), the plunger (10) rotates from the first rotational position to the second rotational position.

1. An autoinjector (1) comprising:
a case (2) adapted to hold a medicament container having a needle (4); a needle shroud (7) telescopically coupled to the case (2) and movable between a first extended position (FEP) relative to the case (2) in which the needle (4) is covered and a retracted position (RP) relative to the case (2) in which the needle (4) is exposed; and a plunger (10) rotationally and slidably disposed in the case (2), the plunger (10) rotatable relative to the case (2) between a first rotational position in which the plunger (10) is engaged to the case (2) and a second rotational position in which the plunger (10) disengages the case (2), wherein, the needle shroud (7) is operably coupled to the plunger (10), and wherein, when the needle shroud (7) translates from the first extended position (FEP) to the retracted position (RP), the plunger (10) rotates from the first rotational position to the second rotational position.
