An inhaler comprising: at least one cover element (); individual reservoirs formed on a substrate; support means () that are movable between a non-dispensing position and a dispensing position; reservoir-opening means (); displacement means () for displacing said reservoir substrate in a first direction, said reservoir substrate also being displaceable between said non-dispensing position and said dispensing position in which said opening means open a respective reservoir; loading means () for urging said movable support means towards said dispensing position; blocking means () for retaining said movable support means in the non-dispensing position; trigger means () that are actuated by inhalation; and connection means () for displacing said reservoir substrate in said first direction when said at least one cover element is displaced, said connection means being activated while said movable support means are being displaced towards said dispensing position while the user is inhaling, and being deactivated in the absence of any inhalation.

Fluid-product dispensing device

An inhaler comprising: a body; at least one cover element that is movable between a closed position and an open position; individual reservoirs formed on a reservoir substrate; movable support means that receive said reservoir substrate and that are displaceable between a non-dispensing position and a dispensing position; and an indicator device for indicating doses that have been dispensed or that remain to be dispensed, said indicator device comprising: a rotary indicator element that supports indicator means, such as numbers, colors, and/or symbols; and an actuator that co-operates with said movable support means so as to cause said rotary indicator element to turn when said movable support means return from the dispensing position to the non-dispensing position.

A fluid dispenser device including at least one individual reservoir () containing a single dose of fluid, such as powder, opening means () being provided for opening an individual reservoir () each time the device is actuated, thereby enabling the user to inhale the dose contained in said open reservoir, at least 90% of the fluid contained in said open reservoir being expelled from said reservoir during inhalation.

Fluid product dispensing device

A fluid dispenser device including at least one individual reservoir () containing a single dose of fluid, such as powder, opening means () being provided for opening an individual reservoir () each time the device is actuated, the device including a dispenser chamber () for receiving the dose of fluid contained in a reservoir () after said reservoir has been opened, an inhalation endpiece (), and an inhalation trigger system that comprises a deformable air-chamber () that co-operates with said dispenser chamber (), said dispenser chamber being displaceable between a rest position and an inhalation position, such that during inhalation through said inhalation endpiece (), said air chamber () is deformed, thereby displacing said dispenser chamber from said rest position to said inhalation position.

Fluid dispenser device

An opening device () for opening an individual reservoir () containing a single dose of fluid, such as powder, said reservoir () including a closure wall (), said opening device () comprising perforator and/or cutter means () that are adapted to cut said closure wall () of the reservoir () in such a manner that the cut portion(s) () does/do not obstruct the opening(s) () that is/are formed.

Opening device for fluid product dispensing device

A fluid dispenser device including at least one individual reservoir () containing a single dose of fluid, opening means () being provided for opening an individual reservoir () each time the device is actuated, said opening means () comprising perforator and/or cutter means () and movable support means (), said movable support means () being adapted to displace an individual reservoir () against said perforator and/or cutter means () on each actuation.
