Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a mechanical energy storage for a fluid dispensing device (10), the mechanical energy storage comprising:—a first drive spring (51) extending along a longitudinal direction (z),—the drive spring (51) comprising a first longitudinal end (53) to engage with a housing (10) of the fluid dispensing device (1) and a second longitudinal end (54) opposite to the first longitudinal end (53) to engage with a driver (30) movable relative to the housing (10) along the longitudinal direction (z),—wherein the mechanical energy storage (50) is reversibly transferable into a pre-loaded state by resiliently compressing the first drive spring (51) in the longitudinal direction (z) to thereby induce a resilient deformation of the first drive spring (51) in a first direction (y) transverse to the longitudinal direction (z), and-wherein the mechanical energy storage (50) is transferable from the pre-loaded state into an unloaded state by allowing the first drive spring (51) to relax into or towards an undeformed configuration with regard to the first direction (y) accompanied by a longitudinal expansion of the first drive spring (51).
