Abstract: The disclosure relates to a medical dispenser, comprising an outlet and a plurality of sealed compartments containing medicament to be sequentially aligned with and dispensed through said outlet. Movement of an actuator sequentially causes mechanical energy to be built up and then released and converted into an indexing movement of the compartments. The disclosure also relates to an indexing method for a medical dispenser.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for managing animal information between a remote server and an animal device is provided. The method includes storing the animal information on an animal database of the remote server; receiving, by the remote server, an authentication request of an identity parameter that is associated with the animal device; authenticating, by the remote server, the authentication request; and transmitting, by the remote server, the animal information from the animal database to a computing device.

Abstract: An inhaler including an outlet and a plurality of sealed compartments containing medicament is disclosed. An opening mechanism is provided to open the compartment presently aligned with the outlet. An indexing mechanism sequentially aligns the compartments with the outlet. A latch is provided for latching the opening mechanism in an energized position. The latch cannot latch the opening mechanism before the indexing mechanism has aligned the next compartment with the outlet. A method of priming an inhaler and a method of dispensing a medicament from an inhaler is also disclosed.

Abstract: An inhaler, including a base having at least one air-tight, foil-sealed cavity containing medicament is disclosed. An actuator is engagable with a separating element attached to the foil, the actuator having an energized position in which it is biased towards an unloaded position so as to cause the separating element and attached foil to be moved away from the cavity. A latch has a first position, in which it latches the actuator in said energized position, wherein the latch is at least partly arranged in a flow path such that an inhalation flow through the flow path affects the latch to move from the first position to the second position. A method of dispensing a medicament from a sealed cavity inside an inhaler is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides dry powder inhalers, containers for carrying a dose of dry powder medicament particles for dry powder inhalers, and a hinge that, while enjoying broader applicability, may be used in such inhalers.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an inhaler comprising an outlet through which doses of medicament may be dispensed. The inhaler also comprises a dispensing mechanism having a primed state, in which it is ready for dispensing a dose, and a fired state, in which it has dispensed a dose. In one aspect, the inhaler also comprises a disabler which, after the final dose has been dispensed, is activated to disable the dispensing mechanism from generating a sound which has been audible when the dispensing mechanism has moved from its primed state to its fired state. In a second aspect, the disabler prevents the dispensing mechanism from being in its primed state when an outlet cover is in an open position, whereby a not ready indication is presented to the user.

Abstract: The Manclaw-Harrison Fuel Cell is a new Environmentally SAFE Fuel Cell (Lead Free, Acid Free, Mercury Free and has No Heavy Metals), and as such, it sets the definition of a new Class of Fuel Cell device because it has been verified to be a Non-Faraday device, making it the first such device discovered in the past 160+ years. See the “Preamble” for a more technical explanation.
