Abstract: An injection device including a regulating element, a sensor, an electronic evaluation system connected to the sensor, and a display connected to the evaluation system for displaying information, wherein the sensor is arranged in the injection device or coupled to operational elements of the device whereby, during a delivery or operational process, the dose still to be delivered can be assessed. A method for displaying a dose of a substance to be delivered is encompassed by the present invention, the dose being detected and displayed during a regulating or operating process associated with an injection device, wherein an amount or dose of the substance still to be delivered is displayed during a delivery process.

Abstract: An injection device including at least one sensor for detecting an operating process of the injection device, an electronic circuit connected to the sensor for establishing the beginning and elapsed time of a service life, based on one or more sensor signals, and an output device connected to the circuit for providing a signal indicating the end of the service life. The invention encompasses a method for determining a service life of an injection device, wherein the beginning of the service life is established by one or more sensors for detecting an operating process of the device, a signal is generated which signals the end of the service life, and at least one of an optical, acoustic or tactile output device is associated with the injection device for providing a signal which indicates the end of the service life.

Abstract: An administering apparatus having a service life timer is provided that includes a casing with a reservoir for a container for a product to be administered, a conveying member for the product, an adder for recording and adding a change in the state of the apparatus, and an output means connected to the adder that outputs a signal perceivable by the senses in response to recording a change in state of the apparatus.

Abstract: An attachment module for use with an injection device, comprising an engagement control which comprises a blocking portion, a blocking member which engages with the engagement control and can be axially moved relative to the engagement control, wherein a movement of the blocking member relative to the engagement control is one of blocked or at least impeded at least in an axial direction when the blocking member is situated in the blocking portion.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for facilitating a transaction using a secondary transaction number that is associated with a cardholder's primary account. The cardholder provides the secondary transaction number, often with limited-use conditions associated therewith, to a merchant to facilitate a more secure and confident transaction.

Abstract: A medical gear pump is used for suction and irrigation, in particular for endoscopy or the laboratory, and it has two meshing gears as conveying elements, one of which is joined to a drive mechanism. The gears are received in non-journal-mounted fashion in openings, and are each equipped with a helical tooth set. It is proposed to configure the helical tooth set such that, when viewed along a surface line of said gears, at least two tooth tip/root contact points of said meshing gears are present, and a contour of tooth spaces of the one gear is matched to the teeth of the other gear in such a way that when a tooth has completely penetrated into the tooth space, its tooth tip almost completely fills up the tooth space radially inside the pitch circle.

Abstract: A scanning potentiometer adapted to a hatch edge prevents buckling of an insulating cover (2) which has a contact strip (10) and a resistor strip (14) during bending and prevents undesired contact. The insulating cover (2) has two profiles (3, 4), with a reinforcing device provided in at least one of the profiles (3, 4). In a preferred embodiment, the reinforcing device has tubular conduits (5, 6) that are integrated into one of the profiles (3, 4), namely the profile (3) that includes an actuation surface (7) of the scanning potentiometer.
