Abstract: A limit value detection device for multiple detection of a limit value event has a catch mechanism manufactured using microstructuring technology, having a first and a second catch element, each having a plurality of catches, a pawl configured to engage in a catch intermediate space between two adjacent catches of the first catch element, the first catch element being movable relative to the pawl in a freewheeling direction and movement thereof relative to the pawl in a blocking direction being blockable by the pawl, and an actuating device configured to move the first catch element and the pawl relative to each other in a catch-by-catch manner in the freewheeling direction. The first and second catch elements together form a counting unit in which the counter status for indicating the detected limit value events is determined based on the position of the two catch elements relative to each other.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention disclose a system for controlled oral drug delivery. The system comprising a removable device comprising a drug to be delivered, wherein the drug is delivered based on osmotic pressure generated in the removable device. Further, the system comprises a receptacle to hold the removable device in an oral cavity, and a base station configured to dock the removable device for determining information about one or more characteristics of the removable device.
