A driving mechanism (100) for an injector device comprises a coil spring (10) having a proximal end (12) and a distal end (14), a spring guide (20) adapted to guide a movement of the coil spring (10), and an actuator (50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60) adapted to cause a force on the proximal end (12) of the coil spring (10), wherein the spring guide (20) comprises a curved part (22) having a curved shape. An injector device comprises a driving mechanism (100) and a needle ejection mechanism comprising a hollow skin needle, wherein the driving mechanism (100) is adapted to cause a dispensing of a drug from a cartridge (70) through the hollow skin needle and an ejection of the hollow skin needle from the injector device.
