Abstract: A set including a pump dispenser for discharging pharmaceutical or cosmetic liquids and an external evaluation unit, which is designed to be exchangeable so that, after the pump dispenser has been emptied, the evaluation unit can be attached to a new pump dispenser. The evaluation unit can be attached to the discharging head of the pump dispenser such that the evaluation unit detects an actuation button and can be partially displaced with same. The evaluation unit can alternatively have a receiving container which is open on at least one side and into which the pump dispenser can be inserted and the force application of which is detected on actuation.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical dispenser with a housing, a medium reservoir, a discharge opening, connection channel connecting the medium reservoir to the discharge opening, and a detection device arranged in the area of the connection channel and designed to detect medium flowing therein. The connection channel is connected to and communicates with a pressure chamber, the detection device includes a membrane which delimits the pressure chamber, and includes an electrically conductive connection portion and is subjected to pressure. The detection device has an electrical mating contact surface in relation to which a membrane-side connection portion is movable when subjected to pressure, such that an electrical contact between the conductive connection portion and the mating contact surface is established or cancelled.

Abstract: A dispenser for dispensing a pharmaceutical medium, including a sensor for sensing a dispensing operation and an electronic processing circuit for sensing and further processing a signal caused by the sensor. In order to simplify the design, the sensor is part of a sensor unit, which has a radio transmitter for producing a radio signal, and the processing circuit has a radio receiver designed to receive the radio signal produced by the radio transmitter.

Abstract: A discharging apparatus having two housing portions displaceable in relation to one another, a discharging opening for discharging a medium, and a reservoir for storing the medium. A manual displacement movement of the housing portions causes medium to be delivered from the reservoir to the discharging opening. The discharging apparatus has an electric load, an electromagnetic generator by which the mechanical energy introduced upon actuation is converted into electrical energy for supplying the electric load, and the electromagnetic generator has a magnet and a conductor connected to the electric load. A spring energy store with a stressing member movable in relation to the second housing portion, and a spring acting between the second housing portion and the stressing member are provided.

Abstract: A radially inwardly open raceway formed in a nut centered on a nut axis is machined by of oscillating the nut about the nut axis while pressing a tool secured in a holder radially outwardly into the raceway of the nut. The holder is moved parallel to the nut axis and oscillated about a tool axis perpendicular to the nut axis synchronously with the oscillation of the nut about the nut axis. Springs brace the tool against the holder parallel to the nut axis such that the tool can move limitedly in the holder against spring bias parallel to the tool axis.

Abstract: In order to obtain a compact construction, in the case of a discharge device (10) for pharmaceutical media comprising a housing (14, 16), which at least partly surrounds a receptacle space (12) for receiving a medium store (8), comprising a discharge opening (17) provided on the housing (14, 16) and serving for administering the medium from the medium store (8), and comprising an electronic circuit (60) designed for detecting discharge processes, it is provided that a display device (30) having curved shaping, a plurality of printed circuit boards angled relative to one another and/or a curved printed circuit board (61) are employed.

Abstract: A microdosing device with a dosing chamber for the at least temporary reception of a liquid quantity, and with which is associated at least one discharge opening is provided. A vibrating unit in operative connection with at least one boundary surface of the dosing chamber is provided in order to vibrate the same for a discharge process, and with a delivery function unit connected to the vibrating unit for activating the latter during a delivery time period. A drying function unit is additionally provided and can be activated in time-separated manner with respect to the delivery function unit in order to free the dosing chamber from liquid residues.

Abstract: A discharge device for media has a housing (10), an operating member (88) manually movable relative to the housing (10) and which, for performing a discharge can be transferred from an unoperated starting position in the direction of an operating direction (1a) into an operated end position and with a locking member (52), which is displaceable relative to the housing (10) between a locked position where it prevents the displacement of the operating member (88) into the end position and a release position in which it permits the displacement of the operating member (88) into the end position.

Abstract: A metering device for dispensing a medium to an environment is provided. The metering device includes a housing, a shallow metering chamber within the housing which is of planar design and is essentially closed off from the environment by wall sections, a first media inlet which is connected to the metering chamber and can be connected to a media reservoir, and a vibration mechanism which is arranged in such a manner that vibrations generated by the vibration mechanism cause pulsing changes in volume of an internal volume of the metering chamber. A wall section which is designed as an outlet wall section has metering openings so that the metering chamber is connected to the environment. The vibration mechanism forms a vibration wall section so that the metering chamber is delimited.
