Problems solved by technology

On the other hand, the point of contact between the catch and the metering lever in the recess may be relatively far from the blocking edge in the shaft, so that when the flapper valve is pivotally moved, there is some delay until the metering lever finally released
In fact, as in the case of the first case, this requires a higher trigger force

Embodiment Construction

[0057] Figures 1 to 20 The inhaler 1 shown in is an inhaler for powdered medicaments for delivering boluses of powdered medicaments from a container in the form of a powder canister. The powder container 3 defines a reservoir 2 for receiving a bolus of powder / powdered drug. In the described embodiment, the number of doses obtainable from one powder container 3 is typically in the range of 30 to 60 doses.

[0058] From figure 2 It can be seen that the reservoir 2 is hermetically covered by a lid 4 . In the assembled state of the inhaler, the cap is secured to the canister 3a in a non-detachable manner.

[0059] The patient receives the powdered dose by means of a flow of air induced by the user (ie, inhalation induced). The inhaler therefore further comprises an actuating means for manual engagement by the patient in the form of a dose key 5 connected to a delivery mechanism comprising a dose lever 6 and a locking lever 7 . The dose lever 6 acts on a dose slide 8 as a me...

Abstract

The invention relates to an inhalation device for a powdered medicament which is received by a patient by means of an inhalation-induced air flow, said inhalation device comprising at least one powder reservoir; A powder dose is metered out by a device; a delivery mechanism is used to move the metering assembly from a filling position for receiving a powder dose to an emptying position for releasing the powder dose into the powder passage; at least one actuating device is used for When manually operated by the patient, the actuating device is operatively connected to the delivery mechanism so that a single dose of powder is metered out during operation, the actuating device includes a dose key (5) which is pressed by the patient When acting on the conveying mechanism. According to the invention, said delivery mechanism also comprises a dose lever (6) acting on the metering assembly, which is locked in said dose key (5) after said dose key (5) has been suitably depressed by the patient. Suction position of the metering assembly. In the inhalation position the dose lever (6) is engaged with a trigger member and is released by actuation of the trigger member. The trigger member comprises at least one cam surface which is engaged tangentially by the dose lever (6) in the locked inhalation position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an inhalation device for powdered medicaments which is received by the patient by an air flow induced by inhalation, said inhalation device comprising at least one powder reservoir; The reservoir sets a powder dose; the delivery mechanism is used to move the metering assembly from the filling position for receiving the powder dose to the emptying position for releasing the powder dose into the powder channel; and at least one actuating device , for manual operation by the patient, the actuating device is operatively connected to the delivery mechanism so that a single dose of powder is metered out in operation, the actuating device includes a dose key which, when pressed by the patient, Act on the conveying mechanism. Background technique [0002] A powder inhaler of the kind mentioned above is disclosed, for example, in EP 1 616 592 B9. [0003] In the field of treatment of bronchial diseases and other diseases in wh...
