Zusammenfassung: | A capsule device (100), comprising: a) a capsule housing (110, 120) having proximal and distal ends and defining a main axis, the capsule housing comprising a plurality of retainer portions (113a) distributed around the main axis, and b) an actuation mechanism (140, 150) operable between a pre-actuation configuration and an actuating configuration, wherein the actuation mechanism (140, 150) comprises: b1) an actuation member (150) configured for axial distal movement, the actuation member (150) comprising a base portion (151) and a plurality of radially deflectable latch arms (153) extending proximally therefrom, wherein each latch arm (153) defines a radially inwards facing latch surface (153b) being inclined with respect to the axis and a radially outwards facing latch surface (153a) in retaining engagement with a respective retainer portion (113a) of the capsule housing (110, 120), b2) a drive spring (140) exerting mechanical load onto the actuation member (150) for driving the actuation member axially in the distal direction, and b3) a dissolvable latch support (160) having radially outwards facing surfaces (163b) being inclined relative to the axis, wherein the dissolvable latch support (160) is arranged centrally on-axis and wherein the plurality of radially deflectable latch arms (163) are distributed around the main axis so that each latch arm (163) is releasably retained radially between a respective one of said inclined outwards facing surfaces (163b) of the dissolvable latch support (160) and a respective one the retainer portions (113a).
L'invention concerne un dispositif de capsule (100), comprenant : a) un boîtier de capsule (110, 120) ayant des extrémités proximale et distale et définissant un axe principal, le boîtier de capsule comprenant une pluralité de parties de retenue (113a) réparties autour de l'axe principal, et b) un mécanisme d'actionnement (140, 150) pouvant fonctionner entre une configuration de pré-actionnement et une configuration d'actionnement, lequel mécanisme d'actionnement (140, 150) comprend : b1) un élément d'actionnement (150) configuré pour un mouvement distal axial, l'élément d'actionnement (150) comprenant une partie de base (151) et une pluralité de bras de verrouillage (153) pouvant être déviés radialement s'étendant de manière proximale à partir de celle-ci, chaque bras de verrouillage (153) définissant une surface de verrouillage orientée radialement vers l'intérieur (153b) inclinée par rapport à l'axe et une s |
