Abstract
For the discharge, particularly atomization of media, particularly liquid medicaments, a dispenser ( ) is provided, which discharges a charge of the medicament in only one or optionally a few strokes. Actuation takes place between three fingers of the user, the thumb pressing an actuating pusher ( ) in the actuating and discharge direction. In order to prevent an unintentional actuation and simultaneously protect the discharge opening ( ) against dirtying and contamination, a protective cap ( ) is provided, which covers the entire discharge section ( ) and the holding surfaces ( ) for actuation. It also has web-like projections ( ) extending up to the actuating pusher ( ) and securing the latter, which prevents an actuation when the protective cap is fitted. However, actuation is possible after removing the protective cap, which is secured by a snap connection.
