摘要:
Exemplary embodiments provide a needle shield remover (500) that reliablyengageswith a distal cap of an automatic injection device and with one or more needleshields coupled toa syringe of the device. When a user removes the distal cap, the needle shieldremover reliablyremoves the needle shields (e.g., a soft needle shield and a rigid needleshield) from the syringe,thereby exposing the injection needle for performing an injection. In anexemplary assemblymethod, a needle shield remover is engaged to a needle shield coupled to asyringe, prior toinsertion of the syringe and needle shield remover assembly into a housing ofthe device. Thisexemplary assembly method allows visual inspection, outside the housing of thedevice, toensure that the needle shield remover is correctly and reliably engaged to theneedle shieldbefore the syringe and needle shield remover assembly is inserted into thehousing.
