  • FIG. 6 now shows the basic structure of the ampoule unit already mentioned, wherein a volume is formed in the interior of the main body 4, which is referred to below as the first chamber 50.
  • This first chamber is filled with a desired medium, for. B. a powdery, liquid-soluble active ingredient.

  • the second chamber is closed by a further seal 39 and this seal can be pressed by a piston 40 through the cylindrical part, thus passing the medium, which lies inside the second chamber 51, through the hollow needle to press into the interior of the first chamber.
  • the two media in both chambers can be coordinated so that they can mix for a specific medical purpose or can also react and thus have the desired properties after mixing or after reaction has occurred. It is also quite possible and desirable if both media of a different consistency, for.
  • the medium in the first chamber is powdery and the medium in the second chamber is liquid, so that when the liquid is brought into the powder, the powder dissolves there and the substance to be applied is formed.

If the first locking pin 42 is released, it is possible to actuate the piston 40 manually, so that with the propulsion of the piston, the medium in the second chamber is driven, so that the tip of the hollow needle opposite seal 38 is opened or is pierced and thus the medium from the second chamber can pass through the hollow needle into the interior of the first chamber.

  • the nozzle not only has a single central outlet opening (as in the cited prior art), but has a plurality of outlet openings 53 and - as Figure 8 shows in a particular example, these openings on an imaginary Ring 44 are (see Figure 8b) and thus make it possible that the medium to be applied penetrates through the illustrated outlet openings at different points through the skin of the patient.
  • the advantage of multiple outlet openings is that the total exit area becomes relatively large, while the individual nozzles are still very small.
  • the cross section also shows that the front nozzle tip is formed in the manner of a hemisphere, which is a very preferred embodiment.
  • the size and shape of the passage surfaces of the nozzles is adapted to both the particular application and on the medium, thus achieving the desired distribution of media under the skin of the patient.
  • FIGS. 9 shows a further embodiment of a needleless injection device according to the invention.
  • both springs 55, 56 have different error constants, so that the spring-way characteristic not, as usual in a spring, linear, but also over two different linear gradients - Fig. 10a - can and even progressively - Fig. 10b - run.
  • the strong spring predominates in its action, this can serve to penetrate the skin layer of a patient, and when the second spring, which is weaker than the first spring, comes into effect thereafter, the medium becomes active from the injection device according to the invention is not brought deep under the skin, but the injection volume is relatively flat under the skin and the penetration depth of the injection volume can be determined by the strength of the second spring, while the First spring is designed primarily to first overcome the resistance that forms the natural skin through their closure.
  • FIG. 10a A typical spring characteristic of such a two-spring system is shown in FIG. 10a, FIG. 13 shows a possibility of the profile of the injected medium beneath the skin, it being understood that this medium forms relatively broadly below the skin, but not as shown in FIG. 1 1 - penetrates into the lower skin layers.
  • Figure 12 shows another - independent - training of the invention.
  • the aim in an optimal intradermal administration of the injection is in the foreground.
  • intradermally means that a visible wheal remains after the injection, ie the injection charge lies relatively flat in and / or under the dermis and has a significantly larger surface diameter than height in cross section (see FIGS. 13a, 13b).
  • the ampoule unit according to the invention already described is provided at its front end with a header which is either firmly applied there or there can be placed or released again, for. B. by screwing etc.
  • This attachment has an edge that projects beyond the front surface of the nozzle, z. B. by about 0.2 to 0.8 mm.
  • the attachment consists of a (circular) ring whose diameter essentially determines the later wheal diameter and whose height h is approximately 0.2 to 0.6 mm above the front nozzle surface as illustrated.
  • the Austriebsfeder is relatively weak in such an embodiment, so that when the injection device, the skin of the one who is to receive the injection, bulges in the centering and the upper side very close to the outlet opening of the nozzle moves, if not even touched. Due to the curvature, the skin is slightly biased in this area and can be easily penetrated by the injection, by the curvature itself but also supports the wheal formation and the spring constant of the exit spring must therefore not as strong as in an injection device in which the injection is to be transported into deeper skin layers.
  • an injection device for the needle-free injection of a medium is already generally known from WO 2007/065542.
  • the embodiment shown there is very well suited for the use of a needle-free injection of a medium.
  • a triggering device is arranged, which only - comparable to a conventional ballpoint pen with conventional rear arranged Pressure mechanism - must be depressed so as to allow the release (activation) of the triggering device and thus the activation of the spring drive.
  • the needle-free injection device already known from WO 2007/065542 is provided with an enclosure in its part facing away from the outlet end. Since the injection device has an approximately circular diameter in this region, the housing also has a corresponding diameter, which, however, is somewhat larger. ßer than the outer diameter of the injection device, so that with its inner surface, the outer surface of the injection device in the surrounding area (slidably) encloses, but is still displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the injection device. As can be seen in Figure 14, the housing also encloses the trigger element. Thus, if the housing is moved in the direction of the outlet end, the triggering element is also pressed inwards at the same time and the entire triggering of the needle-free injection is activated.
  • an opening is provided in the upper part of the housing in which a ring-like securing element, which as such is already known from WO 2007/065542, is inserted. Only when this fuse element is pulled out of the housing, the functionality of the needle-free injection device is given.
  • the user can now detect the entire needle-free injection device by attacking only the housing or its surface and puts the injection device with its outlet end on the respective skin area (pad), where the injection is to take place. Now the user needs the needle-free injection device only the enclosure - of course, after removal of the fuse element - to push towards the skin and thus the needle-free injection is always under the same conditions, which means always with the same contact pressure of the injection device on the respective skin area.
  • the desired injection result is reliably achieved and since only a time of about 10 to 500 milliseconds, preferably about 50 to 100 milliseconds is needed for the entire injection is itself when, due to a possible pain reflex, the user jerkily removes the injection device from the skin, the entire injection already takes place, because the anxiety / pain reflection time is much greater than the actual injection time.
  • the respective contact pressure (force) of the injection device on the skin can be substantially determined by also adjusting the pressure (force) required for the triggering. The higher the pressure required to trigger the trigger element, the higher the pressure of the entire injection device on the respective skin area.
  • the release of the drive element is accomplished by pivoting or twisting a blocking element (8).
  • This blocking element cooperates with the triggering element, which in turn is wedge-shaped. Due to the position of the blocking element to the wedge-like surface of the triggering element on the one hand or by the surface friction conditions of blocking element on the one hand and surface of the wedge-like triggering element on the other hand, the respective force (pressure), with the triggering itself, are very precise and above all be set repeatable, so that all identical injection devices with the corresponding design at the same pressure force, so trigger at the same force with displacement of the housing.
  • FIG. 15a but more precisely 15b, now show a very advantageous embodiment of the outlet end, ie the end of the injection device on which the nozzle unit is formed.
  • the nozzle is surrounded by a casing, preferably a shrink sleeve, which has a first section in a front region, in which the outer diameter of the casing tapers and, as shown, tapered so that sets a circular arc cross section R2 (or deviations thereof).
  • This section is followed by another section, in which the external thread is formed (preferably a M8x1 thread), on which the attachment can be screwed.
  • joins another third section in which the front end of the shell again linearly, ie tapered conically.
  • the first section is preferably about 1 mm long and starts at a distance of 4 mm from the nozzle end.
  • the second section is preferably 2 mm long and the third section adjoining the second section is about 1 mm long.
  • the diameter of the third section in the outlet area is about 6 mm.
  • the material of the shrink sleeve is preferably a plastic, very particularly preferred here is polycarbonate.
  • FIG. 15 has the particular advantage that a bursting of the ampoule during the injection, that is to say when a particularly high pressure acts inside the ampoule, can thus be avoided very reliably and, in particular, can be achieved by the design as shown in FIG 15, the notch stresses are reduced so that the overall material reliability is improved.
  • a further variant of the invention which may be independent of the previously described embodiments and variants of the invention, but may also form an advantageous embodiment of the invention together with the previous embodiments and variants, is disclosed in FIGS. 16, 17 and 18.
  • a displacement piston can be introduced, for example via a ring seal in the ampoule. Then, if a sufficiently large pressure in the ampoule is reached, the medium, which is located in the ampoule, can escape at the contact surface between the ring seal and the piston. This then has the consequence that the pressure in the ampoule drops, which in turn can lead to a certain pressure, which is required to inject a medium easily and reliably at a desired depth, needlelessly under the skin is not achieved.
  • a pressure drop should be avoided by occurring overflows or leaks when inserting a displacement piston.
