1. An injection device adapted for injecting a pen injector device along an injection direction defining an injection axis, comprising:
a housing adapted to be positioned on skin of a human subject, wherein said housing includes a tubular element having a first end positioned on the skin and a second upper opening opposite the first end; and
a movable element movably arranged relative to the housing between a retracted position and an injection position, wherein the movable element includes a holder adapted for holding the pen injector device, wherein the movable element includes a first portion arranged to slide inside the tubular element of the housing, a second portion arranged to slide at a first outer surface of the housing, and a connection portion connecting the first portion with the second portion, wherein the movable element extends out of the second upper opening of the tubular element,
wherein the holder includes a first holding part closest to the first end of the housing and a second holding part, wherein the first holding part has a first element for engaging and fixing the pen injector device in a correct position for injection, and the second holding part is configured to lock the pen injector device and prevent the pen injector device from moving relative to the movable element of the injection device, and
wherein the first element of the first holding part is adapted to engage in a threaded-type lock with a second element of the pen injector device so that the pen injector device screws into the first element to engage with the first holding part.
