  • DOSE COUNTING MECHANISM
    Publication number: 20220347408
    Abstract: The present invention relates to dose counting mechanisms for medicament inhaler devices, for example metered-dose inhaler (MDI) devices. In particular, the invention relates to a counter comprising a counting component (20,620), a locking element (46,646) for resisting movement of the counting component (20,620), and a distinct driving element (70,670) for driving movement of the counting component (20,620). The locking and driving elements are actuated by movement of a common element to move the locking element (46,646) out of engagement with the counting component (20,620) and to move the driving element (70,670). The driving element (70,670) applies a motive force to the counting component (20,620) before the locking element (46,646) fully disengages from the counting component (20,620).
