Single use inserter system comprising a housing part and a lid part, the inserter system comprising a carrier part in an initial position in the housing and a drive unit comprising a first drive part attached to the housing, the drive unit comprising at least one spring element supported by the first drive part, wherein the drive unit is configured for moving the carrier part from a first position to a second position in relation to the housing in an insertion direction along a first axis. The inserter system comprises a transcutaneous device having a proximal surface and a distal surface, wherein the transcutaneous device is detachably attached to the carrier part, the inserter system comprising at least one transport protection element preventing movement of the carrier part in a direction along the first axis thereby supporting the carrier part in the initial position.
Single use inserter system comprising a housing part and a lid part, the inserter system comprising a carrier part in an initial position in the housing and a drive unit comprising a first drive part attached to the housing, the drive unit comprising at least one spring element supported by the first drive part, wherein the drive unit is configured for moving the carrier part from a first position to a second position in relation to the housing in an insertion direction along a first axis, the inserter system comprising a transcutaneous device having a proximal surface and a distal surface, wherein the transcutaneous device is detachably attached to the carrier part, the inserter system comprising at least one transport protection element preventing movement of the carrier part in a direction along the first axis thereby supporting the carrier part in the initial position.
Inserter system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the at least one transport protection element comprises at least one bridge between the carrier part and a stationary part of the inserter system.
Inserter system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the at least one transport protection element comprises a locking member detachably mounted in the housing part and engaging with the carrier part and a stationary part of the inserter system such that movement of the carrier part is prevented in a direction along the first axis thereby supporting the carrier part in the initial position.
Inserter system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the at least one transportation protection element locks the carrier part in the initial position.
Inserter system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the at least one spring element is made of a plastic material.
Inserter system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the at least one transport protection element comprises at least one support element formed in the lid part, the at least one support element including a first support element for supporting the carrier part and the transcutaneous device in the initial position.
Inserter system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the carrier part comprises a needle hub with a hub base and an insertion needle secured to the hub base, the transcutaneous device being detachably attached to the needle hub.
Inserter system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the carrier part comprises a carrier base releasably attached to the needle hub, wherein the inserter device is configured for releasing the needle hub from the carrier base in the second position.
