Abstract: The invention concerns lancets with a lancet needle, the tip of the lancet needle being embedded in an elastic material. Furthermore the invention concerns lancets where the tip of the lancet needle is surrounded by a hollow body which partially consists of an elastic material that can be pierced by the tip of the lancet needle during the lancing process and which reseals the tip of the lancet needle in the hollow body when it is retracted. In addition the invention concerns a lancet magazine in which the lancets are accommodated in individual chambers, each chamber having an opening through which the tip of the lancet needle can pass, which is sealed by an elastic material. Finally the invention concerns the use of an elastic material as a component of a lancet or a lancet magazine to maintain the sterility of at least the tip of a lancet needle in the unused state and to hygienically protect at least the tip of a lancet needle in the used state.

Abstract: A nebulizer and a housing part comprising a blocking device as well as use of a blocking device are proposed. The blocking device blocks a rotatable element of a counter device in a defined rotational position until the nebulizer is closed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a nebulizer having attached housing, which is attached in a way that permits removal, which housing holds containers of liquid medication for dispensing via nebulization, which nebulizer is constructed to allow containers holding the medication to be used and held within the housing provided that such containers match or conform to the certain mechanical requirements of the nebulizer and housing.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a structural part with a cannula for the subcutaneous administration of an active substance is disclosed. A loose cannula is threaded on a piercing means to form a ready-to-use cannula piercing unit and subsequently, a cannula housing is injection-molded onto the cannula. Embodiments for the cannula as well as the structural part, an application part, an insertion head, and an insertion device which includes the cannula are also disclosed.

Abstract: A nebuliser and a housing part removably connected thereto, each having a coding, are proposed. To increase the flexibility in the coding while using carry-over parts at least one of the coding means can be mounted in different defined positions on the nebuliser or the housing part removably connected thereto so that in each position a different coding is obtained in which the coding means match one another.

Abstract: A nebulizer and a housing part for a nebulizer are proposed, wherein a container containing the fluid to be nebulized is provided. The container is moveable back and forth for conveying and nebulization of the fluid. A securing device forms a transportation lock for holding the container unmovable in a delivery state with closed transportation lock. A control part opens the transportation lock by means of at least one rib or arm when the control part is moved towards the securing device. The securing device comprises a ring-like holding part with inwardly extending holding elements for holding the container inseparably.

Abstract: A lancet for the extraction of blood includes a base portion of plastics material, a lancet needle of a metallic material held in the base portion and having a pointed end section protruding from the base portion, a head portion of plastics material integrally connected to the base portion by a preset breaking zone, and cooperating cam means on the base and head portions. The head portion can be removed from the base portion thereby exposing the pointed end section of the lancet needle by exerting a rotational force to one of the base and head portions relative to the other. The lancet needle is embedded in the head portion prior to the removal thereof. The cam means comprises pairs of cooperating cam sections on the base and head portions engaging with each other upon relative rotation between these portions for creating an axial movement of the head portion relative to the base portion thereby causing a rupture of the preset breaking zone.
