  • Publication number: 20230390795
    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.

  • Publication number: 20200164164
    Abstract: A fluid dispenser device with a main body (10); a reservoir (21) containing a dose of powder; a reservoir opening mechanism (80); a dispenser orifice (5); a movable support mechanism (50) to displace a reservoir (21) against the opening mechanism on actuation and displaceable between a non-dispensing position and a dispensing position, urged towards the dispensing position, and held in the non-dispensing position by a blocking mechanism (100). An inhalation trigger system (60) is provided that has a deformable air chamber (61) and a trigger element (600) that co-operates firstly with the air chamber (61) and secondly with the blocking mechanism. The fluid dispenser device further includes an electronic dose counter or indicator device (300) including a sensor (306) to detect displacement or deformation of a portion of the fluid dispenser device, generated while the user is inhaling or after the user has inhaled.

  • Publication number: 20200155775
    Abstract: A fluid dispenser device having a body (10) provided with a mouthpiece (15); a fluid reservoir (20) containing a fluid and a propellant gas; and a metering valve (30) including a valve member (32). The valve member is received in a valve well (50) secured to main body (10). The reservoir (20) is mounted in the body (10) to slide between a rest position in which the metering valve is closed and a dispensing position it is open to dispense a dose of fluid. The device includes an actuation sensor, an orientation sensor and/or a movement sensor (500); an electronic dose counter including a screen (1400) displaying the number of doses; and a signal-transmitter (1500) for communicating information relating to the actuations of the device.

  • Patent number: 7441639
    Abstract: A dashpot featuring amplitude-dependent shock absorption, especially intended for the wheel of a vehicle and including a hydraulically parallel cylindrical pressure-compensation chamber (8). The pressure-compensation chamber is partitioned by an axially displaceable floating piston (10). At least one face (25) of the floating piston is provided with a resilient bumper (18). The object is a dashpot with a floating piston that arrives more gently at its limit inside the pressure-compensation chamber (8). The bumper is accordingly accommodated in an axial hollow (17) that extends through the body (15) of the floating piston.
