Patent ID: 8267901

Claim:
A dose delivery device with a gearing mechanism comprising a housing comprising a first thread, a driver comprising a second thread, a dual threaded nut including first nut thread engaged with the first thread of the housing and second nut thread engaged with the second thread of the driver, respectively, a dosing nut comprising a third thread, a dose setting member, a push button and a piston rod comprising a fourth thread engaged with the third thread of the dosing nut and being rotationally locked to the housing during dose setting and injection, wherein the housing and the driver are relatively connected via a key and a groove allowing axial movement of the driver relative to the housing during dose setting and injection without allowing rotational movement of the driver relative to the housing during dose setting and injection, wherein axial movement of the driver during dose setting and injection causes the dual threaded nut to rotate and to move axially, only a shorter distance than the driver, wherein the dual threaded nut is connected with the dosing nut in a way that allows relative rotational movement but not relative axial movement between the dual threaded nut and the dosing nut, wherein a dose can be set by rotating the dose setting member, whereby the push button is elevated from one end of the device a distance proportional to the set dose from a position fixed relative to the housing, wherein the set dose can then be injected by pressing the push button back to its non-elevated position, through which motion of the push button the piston rod will move the same or a different distance due to the gearing, and wherein one of the first nut thread and second nut thread is left-handed and the other is right-handed.
