  • Patent number: 6772915
    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.
