Abstract

An autoinjector (32) useful for, inter alia, providing an injection of liquid medicament is uniquely capable of providing injections, utilizes a needle depth adapter (40) to provide injection depths with a combination of accuracy and precision not heretofore seen. In addition, the autoinjector (32) with needle depth adapter (40) can include a variety of size needle depth adapters to provide an autoinjector of varying, precise injection depths and which can be readily and easily manufactured. The autoinjector (32) includes housing (34), cartridge assembly (36), needle (38), needle depth adapter (40), and power providing assembly (42).
