Embodiment Construction

[0099] Referring to FIG. 1 , FIGS. 1A and 1B show a discharge structure and a first embodiment of a drug dispenser 10 in a discharge structure, respectively. The medicament dispenser comprises a tubular body 11 having a closure sleeve or end cap 12 rotatably mounted to a first end 13 . The sleeve 12 has a mounting hole 15 to receive a lanyard or the like for use as a wrist strap or collar or other securing structure. The cap 12 has a sleeve hole 16 which, in the discharged configuration, overlaps the wall of the tubular body in the first end 13 .

[0100] The nozzle 18 is shown in the discharged or extended position in FIG. 1B , passing through the sleeve hole 16 and the side hole 19 of the tubular body 11 . The sleeve hole 16 is much larger in length dimension than the side hole 19, allowing the cover 12 to rotate substantially when the two holes overlap. This allows the nozzle to be moved in and out of the full discharge position.

[0101] The second end 20 of the tubular...

Abstract

The specification describes a medication dispenser for receiving a pressurised medication container and discharging therapeutic doses therefrom. The medication dispenser comprises an elongate tubular body (11) with a cavity formed in the body and adapted to receive a medication container. Lateral aperture (19) is formed in the body and communicates with the cavity. A sleeve (12) is rotatably mounted to a first end region (13) of the medication dispenser. The sleeve (12) has a sleeve aperture (16) which moves into and out of alignment with the lateral aperture (19) during rotation of the sleeve. A mouthpiece (18) moves between a discharge position and a storage position with rotation of the sleeve. The tubular body has a longitudinal axis (22) which deviates away from the position of the extended mouthpiece, the deviation occurring outside the first end region (13). The invention may extend to a carrier (60) for use with the medication dispenser (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a medicament dispenser for receiving a pressurized medicament container and storing it under safe and hygienic conditions, while also allowing activation of the pressurized medicament container when required. The invention also relates to a carrier for a medicament dispenser, preferably fixable to a personal item such as a strap, belt, handbag, etc. in a secure location or other suitable location accessible to the user. Background of the invention [0002] The development of devices for self-medication has brought many benefits to patients of various diseases and pathologies. [0003] One of the main examples is asthma. In the early days, people with asthma were generally considered lifelong disabled, and their lives were often organized with low levels of physical activity or limited travel so that they had access to supportive institutions available in their environment. Intense attacks of asthma usually require the...
