Drive device for a piston in a container containing an injectable product
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A drive device for a piston in a container containing an injectable product, said drive device comprising:
- a) a first shifting stage which may be shifted relative to a base part from a starting position and which, when shifted in an advancing direction, advances said piston in said container, displacing product from said container in doses;
b) at least a second shifting stage which may be shifted in said advancing direction relative to said base part from a starting position and which, when shifted in said advancing direction, slaves said first shifting stage;
c) wherein said first shifting stage may be shifted in said advancing direction relative to said second shifting stage, and said first shifting stage and said second shifting stage at least partially overlap, viewed in said advancing direction;
d) and a drive for advancing said shifting stages;
e) wherein said drive acts on one of said shifting stages via a first spindle drive;
f) and wherein a second spindle drive is formed between said shifting stages;
wherein;
g) proceeding from said starting position of said shifting stages, said shifting stage which is first advanced by a pre-set shifting path length experiences a higher resistance, at least in sections, against possibly shifting even further than does said other shifting stage, such that said other shifting stage is likewise advanced.

Abstract
A drive arrangement for an injection device, including a first stage, a second stage and a drive for shifting the stages, wherein the drive acts on one of the stages to shift said one of the stages first and wherein the stage which is first shifted encounters a higher resistance than does the other stage, such that the other stage is shifted.
