Claims16
1-15. (canceled)
A storage case for an electromechanical medicament delivery device, the storage case comprising:
- an outer protective housing;
- a device storage portion for an electrically rechargeable electromechanical medicament delivery device;
- an internal battery and a charging circuitry for charging of the internal battery of the storage case and a battery of the medicament delivery device when housed in the device storage portion;
- a charging input device connected with the charging circuitry of the internal battery and with a charging interface in the device storage portion;
- and
- controller circuitry configured to:
- determine the state of charge of the internal battery;
- determine that the medicament delivery device requires charging;
- in case the state of charge of the internal battery exceeds a threshold, control the charging circuitry to charge a battery of the medicament delivery device;
- and
- control at least one indicator of the medicament delivery device to indicate the charge status of the medicament delivery device, the indicator being configured to indicate injection status when the medicament delivery device is out of the storage case.
A method for controlling charging of an electrically rechargeable medicament delivery device storable in a storage case comprising a device storage portion for accommodating the electrically rechargeable electromechanical medicament delivery device, and an internal battery and charging circuitry for charging of the medicament delivery device when housed in the device storage portion, the method comprising:
- determining the state of charge of the internal battery;
- determining that the medicament delivery device requires charging;
- in case the state of charge of the internal battery exceeds a threshold, charging a battery of the medicament delivery device;
- and
- controlling at least one indicator of the medicament delivery device to indicate the charge status of the medicament delivery device, the indicator being further configured to indicate injection status when the medicament delivery device is out of the storage case.
