Zusammenfassung:A cannula cartridge for receiving a cannula includes a needle assembly, a cannula and a protector. The needle assembly is movable within the protector between first and second positions. In the first position the needle is covered by the protector and a retainer of the protector engages an engagement element of the needle hub by a form fit connection. In the second position the needle at least partially extends from the protector. An inserter can move the needle assembly between the first position and to the second position and then back to the first position. The retainer and the engagement element are configured such that a holding force of the retainer is overcome by applying forces parallel to the axis of the needle. An inventive kit that includes an inserter and a driver for moving the needle assembly and a method of manufacturing the cannula cartridge are also disclosed.
