Patent ID: 8641669

Claim:
An injection apparatus ( 2 ) having a carrier housing ( 4 ), into which an injection device ( 8 ) having at least one injection fluid container ( 10 ) that is capable of being expressed can be inserted, and an actuating apparatus ( 12 ) capable of being driven along an injection direction (R) in order to activate the injection device ( 8 ) and capable of being acted on for performing at least one pricking stroke and one injection stroke by a mechanical energy storage unit ( 20 ) and an electrical transport unit ( 26 ), characterized in that the actuating apparatus ( 12 ) is driven in the injection direction (R) by a driving force of the mechanical energy storage unit ( 20 ) and the electrical transport unit ( 26 ) forms a speed limiter which acts counter to the driving force during an injection, in order to limit a stroke speed attained via the mechanical energy storage unit.
