Abstract: An inhaler for inhalation of a formulation in powder form includes: a magazine which is rotatable and contains pre-dosed doses of the formulation in capsules, a housing which is substantially round or disc-shaped, the housing having a housing part in which the rotatable magazine is disposed, where the housing part is fixedly coupled to the rotatable magazine, and is removable from the housing in order to facilitate replacement of the magazine by inserting a new magazine.

Abstract: An inhaler including a magazine having capsules, a mouthpiece and a cover associated with the mouthpiece, where the cover is radially movable and pivotable for open or closing of the mouthpiece, by pivoting the cover the magazine is conveyed from one capsule to the next capsule, and by radial movement of the cover a capsule is moved in a radial direction into a discharge position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system composed of an inhaler and a capsule, preferably intended for single use. The capsule contains a preferably powdered pharmaceutical preparation which, for inhalation, is expelled from the capsule through at least one hole. The capsule comprises as capsule elements a capsule cap and a capsule body, at least one of which comprises at least one prefabricated hole. The prefabricated hole in the capsule is sealed off in the transporting state of the system and is open in the usage state. The hole is exposed by actuation of a pulling mechanism. Prior to this the hole is closed off by a capsule receptacle or a film. In one embodiment the capsule may be present in two different states, for example in different insertion positions of the capsule elements. In the first state the prefabricated hole is closed off and in the second it is exposed. Also shown is an inhaler suitable as a disposable product, which is manufactured from thermoformed parts or from blister film.

Abstract: An inhaler is proposed, comprising an annular magazine having capsule chambers oriented radially and capsules provided in said chambers, which allows ease of use and reliable dispensing of a formulation to be inhaled which is held in the capsules.

A capsule according to the invention comprises as capsule elements a capsule cap and a capsule body, at least one of which comprises at least one prefabricated hole. Systems according to the invention comprising inhalers and capsules are described, in which the prefabricated hole in the capsule is sealed off in the transporting state of the system and is open in the usage state. The hole is exposed by actuation of a pushing or pulling mechanism. Prior to this the hole is closed off by part of the capsule itself or by a capsule receptacle belonging to the inhaler. In one embodiment the capsule may be present in two different states, for example in different insertion positions of the capsule elements. In the first state the prefabricated hole is closed off and in the second it is exposed.

Abstract: An inhaler for delivering a preferably powdered formulation from a blister strip having a plurality of blister pouches. In order to achieve a compact simple construction for the inhaler and an easy action for the blister strip, the carrier extends over a circumferential angle of the inhaler of less than 360°. In particular, the carrier is guided between two deflectors with an at least substantially constant curvature, and preferably, exclusively along an outer wall of the inhaler. A conveying device of the inhaler has four drive wheels of the same diameter which are arranged on a common radius and are driven by common drive means in the same direction of rotation.
