Definitions
- the present invention relates to a needle-free injection system (hereinafter also referred to as NIS) with an active ingredient cartridge having a nozzle and a piston-loaded metering chamber for pressurized delivery of an active ingredient for injection into the intracutaneous, subku tane or intramuscular layers of skin.
- NIS needle-free injection system
- an NIS allows the injection of drugs and other agents in the intracutaneous, subcutaneous or intramuscular Hautschich th. It is pressed by high pressure, the agent to be injected through a very fine nozzle. The pressure and the speed are so enormous, that is, they are so high that the agent is pressed into or through the epidermis.
- NIS are known from the prior art recently. Nearly all development and market injection devices follow a relatively similar design in terms of system, technology and design.
- a mechanism for driving to the piston having a starting position relative to the mechanism from which the piston is released by means of a trigger for guiding the movement.
- the Mecha nism is designed so that it allows the return of the piston to the starting position.
- the trigger / drive there are three variants.
- the first variant is the pressure generation by means of a gas cartridge, the second by means of an internal compression spring, which is set by an external clamping system under tension.
- the third variant is an integrated lever mechanism that puts the compression spring under tension. All three variants are ultimately used to set the piston at high pressure in motion, so that it is able to squeeze the liquid in the metering chamber through the nozzle about 80-360 microns small.
- the metering chamber there is a variant integrated in the system and a variant in which the metering chamber is externally screwed on.
- the NIS available on the market can be found in many versions. They are intended for medical purposes. In many devices, the spring is tensioned with an external adapter, which makes the hygienic work almost impossible because you have to unscrew the dosing for each clamping again, which inevitably leads to a higher number of Be touches and thus significantly affects the sterility. In addition, the depth of interest paid to cosmetics is not regulated by the devices on the market.
- the present invention is based on the object to provide an NIS, which eliminates the aforementioned problems, wherein the maximum quantity delivery is limited.
- an NIS of the type mentioned is characterized in that a mechanism for tensioning the mechanism for driving the piston is integrated, wherein the recording of the drug cartridge in the longitudinal direction by threaded with respect to the piston for adjusting the output amount of the active ingredient is adjustable , wherein a locking profile and a correspondingly corresponding locking member are provided, by means of which the maximum stroke length of the piston and thus the maximum metering amount is defined, so that the maximum metered amount of the active ingredient is significantly less than the content of the drug cartridge.
- the maximum dosage of the active ingredient may be at most 0.1 ml and / or at most one fifth of the capacity of the drug cartridge.
- a threaded connection can be provided on the housing, which comprises an internal thread on the receptacle and an external thread on the housing.
- the advantage of the N1S according to the invention is thus to be seen in the fact that it is formed on the one hand by the blocking function for outputting a defined output quantity or a limited Einschusstiefe in the upper skin layers, and at the same time as a "multi-shot system" can be used, wherein the drive mechanism can be stretched several times in such a way that a removal of the dosing is not required.
- a beautician can repeatedly inject small amounts of the drug with this N1S by repeatedly clamping without having to apply a new drug cartridge and without having to attach an external clamping system to the N1S. This makes it possible, in a treatment process affected areas of the skin, such as wrinkles, more easily injected with small amounts of active ingredient and so to achieve the intended effect of the active substance.
- the maximum dispensed quantity output is ultimately always significantly lower than the content of the entire active substance cartridge.
- the maximum dosage of the drug depends on the structure of the N1S. For example, it may not exceed one fifth of the capacity of the drug cartridge. It may in particular be 0.1 ml.
- the water value has proven to be very suitable for cosmetic applications such as injecting skin fold with hyaluronic acid.
- the actual amount of the injected active ingredient is variable for each injection process. Far below the limitation of the discharge amount through the obturator you can deliver microdoses. Thus, for example, when treating with hyaluronic acid, you can set the optimal dose for each skin type.
- the actual amount dispensed can be varied by a factor of 20 in the range 0.005 - 0.1 ml.
- the discharge amount can be precisely adapted to the skin type and the treatment goal, repeated by repeated triggering the desired delivery rate until the delivery of the total amount of active ingredient in the drug cartridge can be introduced. In this way, a quick and individually adaptable to the individual case cosmetic treatment is possible.
- a tension or piston spring can be provided as a drive for the actuating piston of the NIS a tension or piston spring.
- a tension lever can be integrated into the NIS, by means of which the tension spring or piston spring can be tensioned several times per drug cartridge in such a way that the entire contents can be injected in several injection processes, for example in 5 to 10 injection processes.
- the introduction of active substance into the upper skin layer is more a transdermal application than a conventional injection.
- the restriction of the application of the active substance to the upper skin layer can be achieved, for example, by limiting the maximum dosage amount of the active substance to a maximum of 0.1 ml.
- the piston in which the pressure is preferably built up by means of the spring, has in a particularly preferred embodiment, at most a maximum stroke length of about 5.7 mm. This corresponds in combination with a commercial metering chamber with a diameter of about 5 mm a shot amount of about 0.1 ml.

- the injection piston 21 is also guided with slight radial play in the opening 200 at the lower end of the housing 11. Characterized in that both the lower portion of the piston 12 small diameter and the injection piston 21 with little radial clearance in the Publ tion 200 are guided at the lower end of the housing 11, it is ensured that the piston 12 presses axially on the injection piston 21 and the injection piston 21 can not escape laterally or bend away. In particular, in Figures 9 and 10, the fine threads are awarded, with which the drug cartridge 10 is screwed into the lower end of the sleeve-shaped receptacle 110 of the NIS 1 is.
- FIGS. 11 to 13 show a further embodiment of the needle-free injection system N1S 1.
- the housing 11 has at the opposite end of the drug cartridge 10 a clamping thread 34, wel Ches is screwed with a female thread 35 to a clamping portion 33.
- the clamping portion 33 is screwed tightly to the rear end of the housing 11.
- the piston spring 15 is in ent tensioned state and presses the piston 12 against the injection piston 21 of the drug cartridge 10th
- the clamping portion 33 For tensioning the piston spring 15, the clamping portion 33 is rotated against the rear end of the housing 11. In order to facilitate this, the outer contour of the rear clamping portion 33 is formed out of round in Fig. 12 it can be seen that by turning the rear clamping portion 33 to the housing 11, the piston 12 via a knob 36 at the rear end of the piston extension 20 pulled up and Piston spring 15 is tensioned.
- the trigger 14 ' is formed in this Ausrete tion form as a pivoting switch and has a locking projection 17', which forms the piston lock.
- a spring plate 32 presses the trigger 14 'in the recognizable in Fig. 12 rest position.
- the receptacle 110 can be rotated about its internal thread 1110 with respect to the external thread 1111 of the housing 11 in order to vary the distance between the piston 12 and the injection piston 21 of the drug cartridge 10 and thereby determine the quantity of active substance to be injected.
- the injection or application of the active ingredient takes place when a user presses on the trigger 14 ', the piston lock (locking projection) 17' is moved out of the groove 31 of the piston 12 and the axial movement of the piston 12 to the drug cartridge 10 is released.
