Definitions
- the present invention relates to a liquid drug administration device.
- Japanese Patent No. 5653217 discloses a drug solution administration device that includes a vial (medicinal solution container), a stopper (gasket), a pressing mechanism, and a drive section.
- the gasket is slidably disposed inside the chemical liquid container.
- the pressing mechanism includes a pusher for pressing the gasket in the distal direction, and a feed screw shaft for moving the pusher in the distal direction.
- the drive unit rotates the feed screw shaft.
- the rotation of the pusher is regulated by the frictional force generated between the inner circumferential surface of the liquid medicine container and the outer circumference of the gasket, and as a result, when the feed screw shaft is rotated, the pusher is rotated. This prevents it from rotating together with the feed screw shaft.
- the pusher in order to maintain the drug solution in the drug solution container in a sterile state in the initial state of the drug solution administration device, the pusher is placed apart from the gasket in the proximal direction, and the rotation of the pusher is regulated by a rotation regulating structure. In some cases, the pusher may be moved toward the tip. In addition, in order to restrict the rotation of the pusher relative to the gasket, a first fitting part with an uneven shape is provided on the distal end surface of the pusher, and a second fitting part with an uneven shape that fits into the first fitting part is provided on the base end surface of the gasket. A joint may be provided.
- the rotation restriction of the pusher by the rotation regulating structure is released before the gasket reaches the leading edge in the drug solution container, and the rotation regulation of the pusher is removed from the rotation regulation structure and separated between the gasket and the drug solution container. It is preferable to switch to the frictional force generated between the two, as this will lead to miniaturization of the liquid drug administration device.
- the present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned problems.
- One aspect of the present invention provides a liquid medicine container that contains a liquid medicine and has a liquid medicine discharge port at its tip, a gasket that is slidably and fluid-tightly disposed inside the liquid medicine container, and a gasket that is arranged in a slidable manner in a fluid-tight manner.
- a pressing force that includes a pusher that presses in the distal direction, and a feed screw shaft that has a second threaded portion that is screwed into a first threaded portion provided on the pusher and moves the pusher in the distal direction.
- the proximal end surface of the gasket is provided with a first fitting portion having an uneven shape
- the distal end surface of the pusher is provided with a first fitting portion having an uneven shape.
- the pusher is brought into contact with the first fitting part, and the pusher is pressed before the gasket reaches the leading edge in the chemical liquid container with the second fitting part in contact with the first fitting part.
- the protruding end of the convex portion of the second fitting portion is in contact with the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion, and the rotation restriction structure is formed such that the rotation restriction is released.
- rotation restriction of the pusher by the rotation restriction structure is released.
- the pusher includes an intermediate plunger having the first threaded portion and the third threaded portion, and a fourth threaded portion that is threadedly engaged with the third threaded portion. and a pressing plunger that presses the gasket, the tip of the second threaded portion is located in a proximal direction relative to the tip of the feed screw shaft, and the intermediate plunger is configured to prevent rotation of the feed screw shaft. moves in the distal direction with respect to the feed screw shaft, and rotates together with the feed screw shaft with the first threaded portion positioned at the tip of the second threaded portion, and the pressing plunger is moved toward the tip of the intermediate plunger. Rotation causes the intermediate plunger to move in the direction of the tip.
- the drug solution administration device including a support portion that supports the drug solution container, and the rotation regulating structure is provided on the pusher. It has a first regulating part and a second regulating part provided on the support part, and when the first regulating part comes into contact with the second regulating part, the Regulates the rotation of the pusher.
- the second regulating portion is located in the direction toward which the proximal end surface of the drug solution container faces.
- the second engaging portion extends along the axial direction of the pusher.
- the liquid drug administration device according to any one of items (4) to (7), wherein the first regulating part has an abutting part facing in the rotational direction of the feed screw shaft, and
- the second regulating portion includes a stopper portion that the abutting portion abuts.
- the stopper portion is a flat surface extending along the axial direction of the pusher.
- fitting promotion guide portion includes an inclined surface that is inclined in the circumferential direction of the pusher from the stopper portion toward the distal end of the pusher.
- the drug solution in the drug solution container can be maintained in a sterile state.
- the drive unit rotates the feed screw shaft
- the rotation of the pusher along the rotational direction of the feed screw shaft is regulated by the rotation regulating structure, so the pusher moves toward the tip and engages the second fitting of the pusher.
- the mating portion contacts the first mating portion of the gasket.
- the rotation restriction of the pusher changes from the rotation restriction structure to the gasket and the chemical liquid container before the gasket reaches the leading edge inside the chemical liquid container. It is switched to the frictional force generated between Thereby, the liquid medicine administration device can be made smaller in size compared to the case where the rotation of the pusher is restricted by the rotation restriction structure until the gasket reaches the leading edge in the liquid medicine container.
- the protruding ends of the convex portion of the first fitting portion and the protruding ends of the convex portion of the second fitting portion may come into contact with each other, and the second fitting portion may not be fitted into the first fitting part. Even in such a case, when the rotation restriction of the pusher by the rotation restriction structure is released, the pusher rotates while moving toward the distal end by the fitting promotion guide, so that the second fitting part is It can be fitted into the fitting part. Therefore, the gasket can be pressed in the distal direction by the pusher.
