Assembly for a drug delivery device comprising a feedback feature
An assembly for a drug delivery device is provided, the assembly comprising a feedback feature. The feedback feature is configured to indicate an end of the dispense operation to a user by giving an audible and/or tactile feedback.
1. An assembly for a drug delivery device, the assembly comprising:
a feedback feature being configured to indicate an end of a dispense operation to a user by giving a feedback, the feedback being an audible and/or tactile feedback,
an actuator which is configured to be operated in order to dispense a dose, wherein the feedback feature creates the feedback when the actuator reaches an end position at the end of the dispense operation,
a rotation member which is configured to rotate during the dispense of the dose, wherein the feedback feature comprises a first feedback element which is located at the rotation member, and
a second feedback element, wherein the first feedback element is configured to interact with the second feedback element, wherein the first feedback element is configured to interact with an enhancement feature at the end of the dispense operation, and wherein the enhancement feature is configured to reinforce an interaction of the first feedback element with the second feedback element.
2. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first feedback element extends along a circumferential direction of the rotation member.
3. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein configurations of the enhancement feature to reinforce the interaction of the first feedback element with the second feedback element comprise configurations to increase a magnitude of the feedback at the end of the dispense operation.
4. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the rotation member comprises an indicator to indicate an amount of a set dose.
5. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the second feedback element comprises teeth or splines.
6. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the second feedback element is positioned inside the actuator.
7. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the enhancement feature is arranged at an inner body of the assembly.
8. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the enhancement feature is configured to interact with the first feedback element such that a deflection of the first feedback element is limited in a radially inward direction.
9. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the feedback comprises an audible feedback, and configurations of the enhancement feature to reinforce the interaction of the first feedback element with the second feedback element comprise configurations to increase a loudness of the audible feedback.
10. A drug delivery device comprising an assembly according to claim 1 .
11. An assembly for a drug delivery device, the assembly comprising:
a feedback feature being configured to indicate an end of a dispense operation to a user by giving a feedback, the feedback being an audible and/or tactile feedback,
an actuator which is configured to be operated in order to dispense a dose, wherein the feedback feature creates the feedback when the actuator reaches an end position at the end of the dispense operation,
a rotation member which is configured to rotate during the dispense of a dose, wherein the feedback feature comprises a first feedback element comprising at least one resilient arm and which is located at the rotation member, and
a second feedback element comprising a protrusion, wherein the first feedback element is configured to interact with the second feedback element, wherein the first feedback element is configured to interact with an enhancement feature comprising a protrusion at the end of the dispense operation, and wherein the protrusion of the enhancement feature is configured to reinforce an interaction of the at least one resilient arm of the first feedback element with the protrusion of the second feedback element.
12. The assembly according to claim 11 , wherein the first feedback element is integral to the rotation member.
13. The assembly according to claim 11 , wherein the first feedback element extends in a circumferential direction of the rotation member.
14. The assembly according to claim 11 , wherein the rotation member comprises an indicator to indicate an amount of a set dose.
15. The assembly according to claim 11 , wherein the protrusion of the second feedback element comprises teeth or splines.
16. The assembly according to claim 11 , wherein the second feedback element is positioned inside the actuator.
