Title: Medicine injection device with a pain-reduction member
Inventor: TUNCER MAHMUT
IPC: A61M5/42
Filed: 2014-11-14
Abstract: The injection device (1, 10) comprises a medicine container, means for injecting medicine from the medicine container to a patient through a needle, a skin contact surface (10b) crossable by the needle and having protrusions (14) which are pressed around the injection site when the injection device (1, 10) is applied on the patient’s skin for the injection, the protrusions (14) being arranged so as to reduce the pain caused by the penetration of the needle, and a sensor for detecting contact of the patient’s skin with the skin contact surface (10b), wherein a predetermined force of application of the injection device (1, 10) on the patient’s skin is required for the sensor to detect the patient’s skin. According to another aspect of the invention, the protrusions (14) include first and second protrusions (14a, 14b), wherein the first protrusions (14a) come into contact with the patient’s skin as the device is applied with a first force and the second protrusions (14b) come into contact with the patient’s skin as the device is applied with a second force, the second force being greater than the first force. The device reduces the perception of pain the patient experiences when receiving an injection. This is achieved by the spikes which stimulate the large-diameter sensory nerve fibres proximate the injection site and block the pain signals from the small-diameter pain nerve fibres. Blocking the pain signals include totally or partially blocking, saturating or desensitising the nerve signals. The spikes (14) also draw the patient’s attention away from the needle penetration into the skin.

Title: Method and device for conditional in ovo injection
Inventor: LESLIE CHRISTOPHER
IPC: A01K45/00
Filed: 2015-05-19
Abstract: The present invention provides in ovo injection devices, including a novel vaccine/substance conservation valve (VCV), a needle depth adjuster (NDA), and methods for selectively delivering vaccines and other substances to eggs in the context of poultry hatcheries. The valve of the present invention allows for the conditional dispensing of vaccines and other substances dependent upon the presence or absence of an egg. When an egg is present, the valve becomes activated, allowing vaccines or other substances to be injected. When an egg is absent, the valve is not activated, thus vaccines and other valuable substances are conserved. The NDA allows embryonated eggs to be more safely injected by reducing the depth of needle penetration, particularly in smaller eggs.
