- FIG. 2 2 shows a side view of an embodiment of the adapter 2.
- the adapter 2 has a reservoir connection 10, a middle part 12 and an ampoule connection 14.
- the reservoir connection 10 couples to the reservoir 4 and has approximately the shape of a hollow cylinder, on the outer wall of which z. B. three, depressions 16 are located.
- the depressions 16 generate on the inner wall bulges, which in the FIGS. 3 and 4 are shown.
- the middle part 12 has in the illustrated embodiment, a cylindrical portion which the reservoir port 10 connects to the vial port 14.
- the middle part 12 also has one or more, for example two, ribs 11 or rib elements 11, which project radially outwards and extend outside the cylindrical part between the reservoir connection 10 and the ampoule connection 14.
- the ribs 11 facilitate the gripping or holding of the adapter 2.
- the middle part 12 in the vicinity of the ampoule connection 14 has two opposite openings 18, through which, for example, the patient a front part of the ampoule 6 (eg FIG. 5 shown Luer connector) and thus also whether air or the pharmaceutical is located in the front part. This makes it easier for the patient at the end of the filling unwanted air in a known manner to remove from the ampoule 6.

- the recesses 16 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the outer wall and generate inside the reservoir port 10 bulges.
- the non-circular shape allows the inclusion of reservoirs 4, which have slightly different diameters. As the size of the reservoir 4 increases, the shape approximates to an optimal circle. A difference between the non-circular shape and the shape of an optimal circle can be used as a deformation to compensate for different diameters. The bulges serve to retain the reservoir 4 in the adapter 2.
- a circular bump 28 surrounds the cannula 26.
- the diameter of the bump 28 is adapted to the outer diameter of one end of the reservoir front part.
- the bulge 28 serves for length compensation of different reservoirs 4, since the bulge 28 can dip into the elastic septum (piercing membrane).

- the slot 22 adjoins a longitudinal side of the web 20, and in the direction of the ampoule 6, the slot 24 adjoins a further longitudinal side of the web 20.
- the web 20 may be curved into the interior of the vial port 14.
- the adapter 2 is made in one embodiment of polypropylene (PP), which is elastically deformable. The web 20 is therefore also elastic, especially in the radial direction.
- the front part of the ampoule 6 is based in one embodiment on a (male) Luer connector 30, which is equipped with a collar part 32.
- the collar part 32 projects substantially perpendicularly from a longitudinal axis of the Luer connection 30.
- the collar part 32 has two circular parts 36, 38 which are separated in the direction of the longitudinal axis by four struts 34 from each other. This results in between the parts 36, 38 four separate cavities 40th
- the front part of the ampoule 6 is pushed into the ampoule connection 14 and the ampoule 6 and the adapter 2 are pressed against each other.
- the circular collar part 36 initially pushes the webs 20 outwards.
- the two webs 20 noticeably engage in the corresponding cavities 40.
- the webs 20 encounter struts 34, the webs 20 can be positioned by slight axial rotation of the ampoule 6 and / or the adapter 2 so that they meet cavities 40 and the webs 20 can engage. In the detented state penetrates the circular collar portion 36 in the openings 22, and the webs 20 relax in their original state and thus ensure the coupling.
- the patient may preferentially pull the ampule 6 and the adapter 2 apart in conjunction with an axial rotation of the ampule 6 and / or the adapter 2.
- the struts 34 push the webs 20 outwards, whereby the ampoule 6 and the adapter 2 can be separated from each other with relatively little effort.
- FIG. 6A and 6B show schematic representations of the piston 8, which has a piston rod 46 and a piston stopper 42.
- FIG. 6B shows a longitudinal section through the piston 8.
- the piston plug 42 is threadably connected to a front end of the piston rod 46 and has two sealing rings 44. Each sealing ring 44 lies in a groove which extends along the circumference of the piston stopper 42.
- the front end of the piston rod 46 has a screw part 52, which is screwed into a blind hole of the piston butt 42.
- the screw part 52 has an external thread which is adapted to a corresponding internal thread of the blind hole.
- the piston rod 46 has an ergonomically shaped handle 48 on which the patient can grip and pull the piston 8.
- the ergonomically shaped handle 48 connects seamlessly to the remaining part of the piston rod 46.
- the handle 48 is generally designed so that the patient can grasp it comfortably and naturally with two (eg, between thumb and forefinger) or three fingers (eg, with thumb, forefinger, and middle finger). In particular, it offers the patient a relatively large grip surface. Edges that some patients may find uncomfortable or even painful are largely avoided.
- the Figures 6C and 6D show schematic representations of the piston rod 46 without the piston plug 42.
- the screw member 52 has a gap 50 which is extends along the longitudinal axis and divides the screw member 52 into two parts.
- the two parts are elastic and can be pressed towards each other, for example, when the piston plug 42 is screwed.
- the outer diameter of the screw part 52 is greater by a predetermined amount than the diameter of the internal thread of the piston stopper 42.
- the elasticity of the separated by the gap 50 parts compensates for the specified difference in diameter and any existing manufacturing tolerances, d. H. the piston plug 42 compresses the parts according to its internal thread. The parts thus also press against the internal thread of the piston stopper 42, whereby a play-free connection is formed and the piston rod 46 and the piston stopper 42 are held together better. This is especially an advantage if the patient at the end of the filling process with a finger against the wall of the ampoule 6 knocks, so that possibly in the ampoule 6 existing air bubbles rise upwards.
- This screw is designed so that the torque for releasing the piston rod 46 is smaller than the torque for rotating the piston plug 42 in the ampoule 6. This ensures that the piston rod 46 can unscrew without the piston plug 42 thereby rotates.
- the above described embodiments of a system and apparatus for withdrawing a pharmaceutical from a reservoir 4 generally facilitate the removal of the pharmaceutical.
- the filling of an empty ampoule 6 is made easier, especially for the patient.
- the locking mechanism and the distributed cavities on the ampoule increase the likelihood that when coupling the ampoule 6 to the adapter 2, the web 20 snaps into a cavity 40.
- the patient on the adapter 2 and / or on the ampoule. 6 pulls, possibly with a rotary motion.
- the elastic web 20 then releases the collar part 32.
- openings 18 and the slotted screw portion 52 are the openings 18 and the slotted screw portion 52.
- the openings 18 on the adapter 2 facilitate the removal of unwanted air from the ampule 6 at the end of the filling process. Since the patient may knock on the ampoule 6 and / or the piston rod 46 under certain circumstances, it is advantageous that the slotted screw part 52 is firmly seated in the piston stopper 42 and does not come off unintentionally.

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Adapter gemäß Anspruch 1.The invention relates to an adapter according to claim 1.
Es stellt sich auch die Aufgabe, ein System und eine Vorrichtung zum Entnehmen eines flüssigen Pharmazeutikums aus einem Behälter zu schaffen, so dass eine bedienerfreundliche Art der Kopplung zwischen Adapter und Ampulle und zwischen Adapter und Reservoir möglicht ist. Um dies zu ermöglichen ist in den hier beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen eines Systems und einer Vorrichtung die Vorrichtung so ausgestaltet, dass sie mindestens einen Arretierungsmechanismus hat, der ein elastisches Element aufweist.It is also an object to provide a system and apparatus for withdrawing a liquid pharmaceutical from a container so that a user-friendly way of coupling between adapter and ampoule and between adapter and reservoir is possible. To facilitate this, in the embodiments of a system and apparatus described herein, the apparatus is configured to have at least one detent mechanism having an elastic member.
Ein Aspekt betrifft demnach ein System zum Entnehmen eines Pharmazeutikums aus einem Reservoir. Das System hat eine Ampulle, in der ein darin beweglicher Kolben angeordnet ist, und einen Adapter, der in einer Längsrichtung einen Reservoiranschluss und einen Ampullenanschluss für eine Kopplung an die Ampulle hat.

Die verschiedenen Wege zur Ausführung der Erfindung sind im Folgenden ohne Einschränkung des Schutzbereiches mit Bezug auf eine Insulinpumpe als Verabreichungsvorrichtung beschrieben. Eine Insulinpumpe ist jedoch nur ein Beispiel für eine Anwendung, bei der in einem vorbereitenden Schritt ein Pharmazeutikum, nämlich Insulin zur Behandlung von Diabetes, von einem Behälter entnommen wird, um es dann in einem weiteren Behälter in einer Verabreichungsvorrichtung zu verwenden. In anderen Anwendungsbeispielen können Wachstumshormone bei Wachstumsstörungen, Erythropoietin (Epo) bei Niereninsuffizienz oder allgemeinem Mangel an roten Blutkörperchen oder α-Interferon bei der Hepatitis- oder Krebsbehandlung als Pharmazeutika verwendet werden.The various ways of carrying out the invention are described below without limiting the scope with respect to an insulin pump as an administering device. However, an insulin pump is just one example of an application in which, in a preliminary step, a pharmaceutical, namely insulin for the treatment of diabetes, is taken from a container for use in another container in an administering device. In other application examples, growth hormones in growth disorders, erythropoietin (Epo) in renal insufficiency or general red blood cell deficiency or α-interferon in hepatitis or cancer treatment may be used as pharmaceuticals.
Die verschiedenen Wege zur Ausführung der Erfindung sind ausserdem nicht auf flüssige Pharmazeutika beschränkt, obschon diese bei medizinischen Anwendungen häufig aus einem Reservoir entnommen werden. Die Erfindung ist jedoch allgemein für Pharmazeutika unterschiedlicher Viskositäten (von flüssig bis hin zu pulverförmigem Lyophilisat, das mit Flüssigkeit aufzulösen ist) anwendbar.Moreover, the various ways of carrying out the invention are not limited to liquid pharmaceuticals, although they are frequently removed from a reservoir in medical applications. However, the invention is generally applicable to pharmaceuticals of different viscosities (from liquid to powdered lyophilisate to be dissolved in liquid).
Mit Hilfe des Adapters 2 kann das Pharmazeutikum aus dem Reservoir 4 entnommen und in die Ampulle 6 überführt werden. Zur Entnahme des Pharmazeutikums sind die Ampulle 6 und das Reservoir 4 an den Adapter 2 koppelbar. Dadurch entsteht mittels einer Hohlnadel oder Kanüle eine Verbindung zwischen dem Innern des Reservoirs 4 und dem Innern der Ampulle 6. Zieht beispielsweise ein Patient den Kolben 8 aus der Ampulle 6 heraus, fliesst das Pharmazeutikum in die Ampulle 6. Die gefüllte Ampulle 6 kann dann z. B. in eine Insulinpumpe eingesetzt werden. In einem Ausführungsbeispiel wird dazu vom Kolben 8 eine Kolbenstange entfernt, so dass nur ein Kolbenstopfen zur Dichtung in der Ampulle 6 verbleibt. Der Kolben 8 ist in den
Der Mittelteil 12 hat im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel einen zylinderförmigen Teil, der den Reservoiranschluss 10 mit dem Ampullenanschluss 14 verbindet. Der Mittelteil 12 hat ausserdem ein oder mehrere, beispielsweise zwei, Rippen 11 oder Rippenelemente 11, die radial nach aussen abstehen und sich ausserhalb des zylinderförmigen Teils zwischen dem Reservoiranschluss 10 und dem Ampullenanschluss 14 erstrecken. Die Rippen 11 erleichtern das Greifen bzw. Halten des Adapters 2. Im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel hat der Mittelteil 12 in der Nähe des Ampullenanschlusses 14 zwei gegenüberliegende Öffnungen 18, durch die beispielsweise der Patient ein Vorderteil der Ampulle 6 (z. B. einen Teil eines in
Der Ampullenanschluss 14 koppelt an die Ampulle 6 und hat näherungsweise die Form eines Hohlzylinders, dessen Durchmesser im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel vom Mittelteil 12 ausgehend zunimmt. Im gekoppelten Zustand des Systems nimmt der Ampullenanschluss 14 einen Teil des Luer-Anschlusses auf. Der Ampullenanschluss 14 hat im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel ausserdem in seiner Aussenwand zwei gegenüberliegende Arretierungsmechanismen, die jeweils aus zwei Schlitzen 22, 24 und einem elastischen Element 20, im folgenden auch Steg 20 genannt, bestehen. Die Schlitze 22, 24 erzeugen jeweils Öffnungen und das elastische Element 20 ist in radialer Richtung elastisch verformbar. Der Ampullenanschluss 14, insbesondere die Arretierungsmechanismen, sind an das in
In einem anderen Ausführungsbeispiel kann anstelle von zwei Schlitzen 22, 24 nur ein Schlitz vorhanden sein. In dieser Ausführung sind das elastische Element 20 und der Schlitz Teil eines Arretierungsmechanismus.

Der Steg 20 entspricht einem länglichen Abschnitt der Aussenwand, der sich entlang deren Umfang und parallel zu den Schlitzen 22, 24 erstreckt und an seinen Enden in die Aussenwand übergeht. In Richtung des Mittelteils 12 grenzt der Schlitz 22 an eine Längsseite des Stegs 20, und in Richtung der Ampulle 6 grenzt der Schlitz 24 an eine weitere Längsseite des Stegs 20. Wie in
Der Vorderteil der Ampulle 6 basiert in einem Ausführungsbeispiel auf einem (männlichen) Luer-Anschluss 30, das mit einem Kragenteil 32 ausgestattet ist. Der Kragenteil 32 steht im Wesentlichen senkrecht von einer Längsachse des Luer-Anschlusses 30 ab. Der Kragenteil 32 hat zwei kreisförmige Teile 36, 38, die in Richtung der Längsachse durch vier Streben 34 voneinander getrennt sind. Dadurch entstehen zwischen den Teilen 36, 38 vier voneinander getrennte Hohlräume 40.The front part of the ampoule 6 is based in one embodiment on a (male)
Zum Koppeln der Ampulle 6 an den Adapter 2 wird das Vorderteil der Ampulle 6 in den Ampullenanschluss 14 geschoben und die Ampulle 6 und der Adapter 2 werden gegeneinander gedrückt. Der kreisförmige Kragenteil 36 drückt anfangs die Stege 20 nach aussen. Wenn die gegenüberliegenden Stege 20 auf Hohlräume 40 treffen, rasten die beiden Stege 20 merklich in die entsprechenden Hohlräume 40 ein. Sollten dabei die Stege 20 auf Streben 34 treffen, können die Stege 20 durch leichtes axiales Drehen der Ampulle 6 und/oder des Adapters 2 so positioniert werden, dass sie auf Hohlräume 40 treffen und die Stege 20 einrasten können. Im gerasteten Zustand dringt der kreisförmige Kragenteil 36 in die Öffnungen 22 ein, und die Stege 20 entspannen sich in ihren ursprünglichen Zustand und sichern somit die Kopplung.For coupling the ampoule 6 to the
Zum Entkoppeln kann der Patient die Ampulle 6 und den Adapter 2 vorzugsweise in Verbindung mit einer axialen Drehung der Ampulle 6 und/oder des Adapters 2 auseinander ziehen. Bei einer Drehung drücken die Streben 34 die Stege 20 nach aussen, wodurch die Ampulle 6 und der Adapter 2 mit relativ geringem Kraftaufwand voneinander getrennt werden können.For decoupling, the patient may preferentially pull the ampule 6 and the
An einem hinteren Ende hat die Kolbenstange 46 einen ergonomisch geformten Griff 48, an dem der Patient den Kolben 8 greifen und ziehen kann. Der ergonomisch geformte Griff 48 schliesst sich nahtlos an den restlichen Teil der Kolbenstange 46 an. Der Griff 48 ist allgemein so gestaltet, dass der Patient ihn mit zwei (z. B. zwischen Daumen und Zeigefinger) oder drei Fingern(z. B. mit Daumen, Zeigefinger und Mittelfinger) bequem und natürlich fassen kann. Insbesondere bietet er dem Patienten eine relativ grosse Grifffläche. Kanten, die manche Patienten als unangenehm oder sogar als schmerzhaft empfinden könnten, werden dabei weitestgehend vermieden.At a rear end, the
Die
Der Aussendurchmesser des Schraubenteils 52 ist um einen festgelegten Betrag grösser als der Durchmesser des Innengewindes des Kolbenstopfens 42. Die Elastizität der durch den Spalt 50 getrennten Teile gleicht die festgelegte Differenz der Durchmesser und evtl. vorhandene Fertigungstoleranzen aus, d. h. der Kolbenstopfen 42 drückt die Teile seinem Innengewinde entsprechend zusammen. Die Teile drücken somit auch gegen das Innengewinde des Kolbenstopfens 42, wodurch eine spielfreie Verbindung entsteht und die Kolbenstange 46 und der Kolbenstopfen 42 besser zusammengehalten werden. Dies ist vor allem dann ein Vorteil, wenn der Patient am Ende des Füllvorganges mit einem Finger gegen die Wand der Ampulle 6 klopft, so dass evtl. in der Ampulle 6 vorhandene Luftblasen nach oben steigen.The outer diameter of the
Diese Schraubverbindung ist dabei so ausgelegt, dass das Drehmoment zum Lösen der Kolbenstange 46 kleiner ist, als das Drehmoment zum Drehen des Kolbenstopfens 42 in der Ampulle 6. Dadurch ist gewährleistet, dass sich die Kolbenstange 46 abschrauben lässt, ohne dass sich der Kolbenstopfen 42 dabei mitdreht.This screw is designed so that the torque for releasing the
Die im vorhergehenden beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele eines Systems und einer Vorrichtung zum Entnehmen eines Pharmazeutikums aus einem Reservoir 4 erleichtern allgemein die Entnahme des Pharmazeutikums. In den beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen wird vor allem dem Patienten das Auffüllen einer leeren Ampulle 6 erleichtert. Der Arretierungsmechanismus und die verteilten Hohlräume an der Ampulle erhöhen die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass beim Koppeln der Ampulle 6 an den Adapter 2 der Steg 20 in einen Hohlraum 40 rastet. Zum Entkoppeln genügt es, dass der Patient am Adapter 2 und/oder an der Ampulle 6 zieht, evtl. mit einer Drehbewegung. Der elastische Steg 20 gibt dann das Kragenteil 32 frei.The above described embodiments of a system and apparatus for withdrawing a pharmaceutical from a
Weitere Eigenschaften, die die Bedienung erleichtern, sind die Öffnungen 18 und der geschlitzte Schraubenteil 52. Die Öffnungen 18 am Adapter 2 erleichtern das Entfernen von unerwünschter Luft aus der Ampulle 6 am Ende des Füllvorganges. Da der Patient dabei unter Umständen an die Ampulle 6 und/oder die Kolbenstange 46 klopft, ist es von Vorteil, dass der geschlitzte Schraubenteil 52 fest im Kolbenstopfen 42 sitzt und sich nicht unbeabsichtigt löst.Other features that facilitate operation are the
