Patent number: 10004859Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for nebulizing preferably powdered medicinal formulations, the nebulization being assisted by propellant. According to the invention, the propellant is supplied in pulsed form to the powder cavity (1) containing the formulation, which is attached to the nozzle (3) from which the aerosol is emitted. The apparatus according to the invention provides an increase in the fraction of pulmonary particles in the aerosol leaving the nozzle (3).Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2013Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbHInventors: Robert Gerhard Winkler, Herbert Wachtel, Stephen Terence Dunne, Andree Jung

Patent number: 9993601Abstract: Disclosed is an inhaler and a method for using the inhaler for the inhalation of a formulation from a carrier. The carrier contains the formulation in a receptacle and is set oscillating by an air current. An improved or defined delivery and nebulisation of the preferably powdered formulation is made possible by the fact that the carrier is set oscillating in defined manner, the formulation is dispensed through a cover element having three to five holes and/or the air current flows onto a fin associated with the carrier and flows past at least substantially only one flat side of the carrier.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2013Date of Patent: June 12, 2018Assignee: Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbHInventors: Andree Jung, Stephen Terence Dunne
