Device for needle-free injection of a fluid into an animal

Abstract

A device for the needle-free injection of a fluid into an animal can include a contact device including a shaped contact surface that is shaped in conformity with a body part of the animal to which the injection is to be administered. Also included is a first injector including a front dispensing end which, during the needle-free injection, extends through a first passage opening in the shaped contact surface and protrudes in relation to the shaped contact surface in a region adjacent to the first passage opening, a first measuring device which outputs at least one first measuring signal in order to detect contact of the animal with the front dispensing end of the first injector, and a control unit which activates a needle-free injection via the first injector on the basis of the at least one first measuring signal.
