Embodiment Construction

[0044] An inhaler device 1 is shown in the figures, comprising a housing and a number of internal components including a cartridge having a number of compartments containing a medicament. The internal assembly has the arm 90 mounted to the housing, the piercing assembly 22 mounted to the arm 90 , the dose counting mechanism and the operating member 54 .

[0045] The shell includes a base 2, a middle cover 4 and a top cover 6 (see Figure 1-Figure 5 ). Four holes 100 are provided along the upper peripheral edge 102 of the base 2 (see Figure 6 ) to receive the four posts 104 extending downward from the lower peripheral edge 106 of the middle cover 4 (see Figure 7 ). The holes 100 are positioned asymmetrically along the peripheral edge 102 of the base 2 and the posts 104 are positioned in corresponding positions along the peripheral edge 106 of the intermediate cover 4 so that when the base 2 and the intermediate cover 4 are properly aligned with each other in the particular...

Abstract

The present invention provides an inhaler device (1) for dispensing a dose of a medicament, the inhaler comprising means for receiving a compartment (42) containing a medicament; and for receiving in the received compartment (42) a drug extraction facilitating device (22) positioned so as to permit extraction of drug from said compartment (42); wherein said extraction facilitating device (22) includes (i) extending therethrough for directing the extracted drug to a first fluid passage of the outlet of the inhaler (1), and (ii) means providing, in use, a second fluid passage for passing fluid through a compartment pierced by said extraction-facilitating means (22) The sealing material of ( 42 ) leads into said compartment ( 42 ).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to inhalers for administering medicaments. The present invention relates in particular to inhalers for use with pierceable sealed medicament compartments, and more particularly to inhalers for receiving cartridges having a plurality of such compartments. This type of inhaler allows for the administration of predetermined doses of medication (usually dry powder medication). Background technique [0002] There are currently many types of inhalers on the market which are designed to receive one or more sealed drug compartments. When a user of the inhaler device desires to inhale medicament in a particular compartment, the piercing member is used to pierce the seal of the compartment and extend through said seal into access to the medicament contained in the compartment. The drug may then be inhaled through the flow path extending through the piercing member into the compartment. [0003] One problem associated with inhaler...
