PRIME AND FIRE LANCING DEVICE WITH CONTACT BIAS DRIVE AND METHOD

摘要

Described and illustrated herein is an exemplary lancing device. The lancing device includes a first housing, second housing, movable member, bias member, first actuator, second actuator, and a lancet. The first actuator is coupled to the movable member so that the movable member is positioned proximate the proximal end in a primed-position, and the second actuator is carried on a portion of the first actuator and is configured to allow the movable member to move from the primed-position to a position proximate the distal end. Other exemplary embodiments are also described.
