Abstract: A housing for an inhalation device and an inhalation device. The inhalation device includes a container unit having a medium container and an outlet stub. The outlet stub is displaceable relative to the medium container for a delivery operation. The housing includes a main housing having a first end forming a mouthpiece, a second end angled in an L-shaped manner with respect to the first end and forming an air inlet, and an attachment piece. The attachment piece has a duct with an attachment opening receiving the outlet stub of the container unit, a nozzle opening, and a pressure chamber arranged between the attachment opening and the nozzle opening. The housing also includes a sensing device for recording a delivery operation, and a diaphragm reversibly deformable depending on a pressure in the pressure chamber. The diaphragm cooperates with the sensing device for actuation thereof.

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: Discharging apparatus for liquid, pasty or pulverulent media having a housing, a discharging opening, a reservoir for storing the medium prior to being discharged, and a handle which causes medium to be delivered from the reservoir to the discharging opening, wherein the discharging apparatus has an electric load and a converter for converting the mechanical energy introduced at the handle into electrical energy for supplying the electric load. Mechanical energy introduced at the handle is fed to the converter by a transmission unit. The linear movement of the handle or of a stressing member of a spring energy store, which can be subjected to stressing by means of the handle, is converted into a non-rotary oscillating movement of a pendulum member, wherein the converter is designed for converting the mechanical energy of the oscillating pendulum member into electrical energy.

Abstract: An atomizer for atomizing liquids including a liquid storage receptacle pertaining to an atomizing device having an atomizing chamber that communicates with the ambient atmosphere through a plurality of outlet orifices. A vibrator is also provided, which liquid present in the atomizing chamber is caused to vibrate for the purpose of atomization, and an intake channel is provided, via which the liquid storage receptacle is connected to the atomizing device and a pumping device is also provided in the intake channel for the purpose of conveying the liquid from the liquid storage receptacle to the atomizing chamber, An electronic control device controls the pumping device and the vibrator.

Abstract: A discharging device for dispensing liquids having a housing, control electronics, a liquid storage receptacle, a discharge orifice, a conveying device actuable manually by a first actuator which transports the liquid to the discharge orifice from the storage receptacle and a blocking device, which in a blocked state blocks the actuation of the conveying device and in a released state allows actuation of the conveying device. The blocking device includes an interlock device movable relative to the housing between first and second positions and a movement of the interlock device from the first to the second position causes the blocking device to assume the released state. The interlock device is biased by a spring device in the direction of the second position and a first retaining device is provided which retains the interlock device in the first position and which is releasable by a signal from the control electronics.

Abstract: An inhaler for the oral administration of a pharmaceutical medium, having a housing with a mouthpiece, a container unit accommodated in an inhalation region of the housing and including a medium container and an outlet connector having an outlet orifice, which outlet connector is capable of being moved relative to the medium container for the purpose of triggering a discharging operation, and a discharge sensor for the detection of a discharging operation. The housing has a main portion and a detecting wall portion capable of movement relative to the main portion and which is configured and/or disposed for displacement relative to the main portion during a discharging operation, and the discharge sensor detects the displacement of the detecting wall portion in relation to the main portion of the housing.
