Delivery member attachment device
The present invention relates to a delivery member attachment device ( 10 ) comprising a neck ( 12 ) having an inner space intended to accommodate a connection part of a medicament container, which neck ( 12 ) is intended to receive a delivery member ( 30 ) for creating a passage between the medicament container via the connection part and through the delivery member, that said neck ( 12 ) is arranged with threads ( 14 ) arranged to engage with corresponding threads ( 34 ) of an attachment part ( 32 of said delivery member ( 30 ), and wherein said neck ( 12 ) further is arranged with a number of slits ( 16 ) providing a number of tongues ( 18 ) between said slits, and wherein said tongues ( 18 ) are arranged to flex inwards, when a delivery member ( 30 ) is to be attached, to allow an axial pushing of said attachment part ( 32 ) onto, and in engagement with, said neck ( 12 ).
1. A delivery member attachment device for a medicament delivery device, comprising:
a neck having an inner space for a connection part of a medicament container, wherein the neck receives a delivery member for creating a passage between the medicament container via the connection part and through the delivery member; the neck has threads arranged to engage with corresponding threads of an attachment part of the delivery member; the neck includes a number of slits providing a number of tongues between the slits; and the tongues flex inward by attachment of a delivery member to allow an axial pushing of the attachment part onto, and in engagement with, the neck; and an inner diameter of the neck is larger than the connection part such that an annular gap is formed between the neck and the connection part when the neck's inner space accommodates the connection part.
2. The delivery member attachment device of claim 1 , wherein the tongues include bridges therebetween for increasing a flexing resistance of the tongues.
3. The delivery member attachment device of claim 1 , wherein the inner space of the neck is such that an annular gap is provided around the connection part of the medicament container for allowing inward flexing of the tongues.
4. The delivery member attachment device of claim 3 , wherein the tongues include bridges therebetween for increasing a flexing resistance of the tongues.
5. A medicament delivery device, comprising a delivery member attachment device according to claim 1 .
6. The medicament delivery device of claim 5 , comprising the delivery member attachment device according to claim 2 .
7. The medicament delivery device of claim 5 , comprising the delivery member attachment device according to claim 3 .
8. The medicament delivery device of claim 5 , comprising the delivery member attachment device according to claim 4 .
