  • Patent number: 11618618
    Abstract: A vented protective cap for a liquid dispenser, and a venting insert, in particular for such a protective cap. The protective cap has a cap wall which surrounds a cap interior. The cap wall has a venting aperture which is spanned by a flexible sheet-like structure. A boundary region of the sheet-like structure is fixed in an encircling manner to a boundary of the venting aperture. The sheet-like structure consists of at least two layers which bear directly against one another but, at least in a central region of the sheet-like structure, are not connected fixedly to one another.

  • Patent number: 11433188
    Abstract: An inhalation device having a reservoir for storing liquid before being discharged, and a discharge head for dispensing the liquid in droplet mist. The discharge head has a nozzle arrangement for generating the droplet mist and housing on which a discharge channel is provided for use as a respiration piece or for attachment of a separate respiration piece. A main axis of extent of the discharge channel encloses an angle of >0° with a central dispensing direction. In alignment with the central dispensing direction of the nozzle arrangement, either an aperture is provided in the housing through which aperture the droplet mist emerges from the discharge head if it is not sucked into the discharge channel by respiration of the user, or a liquid buffer is provided for receiving the droplet mist if it is not sucked into the discharge channel by respiration of the user.

  • Patent number: 11390435
    Abstract: Liquid dispenser for discharging pharmaceutical liquid having a discharge head and a cap, the cap body of which has a ventilation opening. The dispenser includes an injection-moulded pull-off portion which, in the delivery state, covers the ventilation opening and is connected to the cap body by a substance-to-substance bond. The pull-off portion, together with a tamper-evident portion, which, with the dispenser in the delivery state, prevents removal of the cap body, is part of a common segment which is detachable from the cap body of the cap. Alternatively, the ventilation opening is provided with a filter membrane for filtering the air which flows through it, and the cap body includes two part-bodies which together form a receiving space for the filter membrane.

  • Publication number: 20220080133
    Abstract: Two sub-methods are used together to produce a nozzle unit for a liquid dispenser. The methods include adding a nozzle plate into a nozzle channel of a nozzle unit using an assembly tool which elastically expands the nozzle channel. The assembly tool is inserted in the nozzle channel and expands same, thus moving the nozzle plate into its final position where it remains after the assembly tool is removed. The methods also include attaching a filter to a nozzle unit carrier. In a preparation step, a flat filter material is positioned on the end face of the carrier. Only after the filter material is positioned and a connection of the filter material to the end face is established, a separation process is carried out by which the filter material is cut to surround the end face. The filter material positioned on the end face and cut in situ remains.

  • Patent number: 10835692
    Abstract: A discharging device for a pharmaceutical liquid, dispenser including a housing, an applicator tip with a discharge opening and a protective cap. A locking tooth is provided on the protective cap and a counter tooth is provided on the applicator tip. The at least one locking tooth passes over the counter tooth when the protective cap is rotated relative to the applicator tip in a first direction, and the locking tooth and the counter tooth prevent rotation in a direction opposite the first direction. The protective cap and the applicator tip are adapted to each other such that the discharge opening contacts a lid region of the protective cap after the locking tooth has passed over the counter tooth, and the discharge opening can be closed in a sealed manner by the protective cap. The protective cap is deformable to disengage the locking tooth and the counter tooth.
