Abstract: Dispenser for the discharge of pharmaceutical media having a liquid storage, a base body, an actuating handle that is manually displaced with respect to the base body for causing a discharge process of media from the liquid storage into an environment, and an electronic detection system for detecting discharge processes. A sensor is provided, which, subject to the displacement of a reference component mechanically coupled to the actuating handle such that during a discharge process the reference component is displaced with respect to the base body, generates an output signal. The sensor is configured for generating output signals of two distinguishable types as a function of the extent of the displacement, and is provided with an electronic calibration memory in which calibration data regarding discharge behavior of the dispenser are stored.

The dispenser includes a detecting device for detecting a shaking movement, the detecting device including an optical or acoustic output device and being designed to transfer the output device from a first state into a second state in response to a manual shaking of the dispenser.

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: 1. Microdosing device and method for dosing small liquid quantities.

Abstract: Such dispensers must be easy to grasp or operate by a user, e.g. a user suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and whose capacity to manipulate objects is under certain circumstances limited. In addition, the dispenser must have a simple, inexpensive construction from a minimum number of components. The dispenser is used for the discharge of media, particularly fluids, e.g. a liquid, which preferably contain a pharmaceutical substance, as described in exemplified manner hereinbefore. In the case of the dispenser, the medium is discharged in at least two proportioned partial charges by actuating an actuating means. As a result of the actuation of the actuating means, a relative movement is produced between the actuating means and a housing having a dispenser discharge opening. According to the invention an elastically deformable material bridge is provided. The actuating means is held on the housing by means of the elastically deformable material bridge.
