Definitions

  • the monitoring device comprises a pressure sensor for measuring the air pressure in a housing of the inhaler or the monitoring device, particularly in a mouthpiece of the inhaler, for detecting inhalation.
  • a pressure sensor of very simple construction can be used instead of a flow sensor.
  • the pressure sensor can be arranged separately from the mouthpiece, in particular outside the mouthpiece, but preferably within the inhaler in another region, most preferably in the lower actuating or housing part. This preferred arrangement of the pressure sensor outside a path for supply air allows a particularly simple construction.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic section through a proposed inhaler according to a first embodiment in the untensioned state
  • the monitoring device 24 preferably comprises an interface 39 for the transmission of data, particularly for inputting or outputting data, particularly for outputting data relating to the use of the inhaler 1 .
  • the interface 39 preferably operates optically or in the infrared range. This is particularly secure against unwanted listening-in or eavesdropping.
  • the data transmission may also be effected by any other method, for example by radio or electrical contact of the transmission device 24 or printed circuit board 25 or via another electrical connection such as a plug or the like.
  • For the issuing or transmission of data it is also possible to use generally known or special protocols or interfaces such as Bluetooth, USB, SATA or the like. Alternatively or additionally, the inductive transmission of data is also possible.
  • the monitoring device 24 After being switched on or activated or woken up, the monitoring device 24 measures the pressure (air pressure) preferably continuously or at short intervals, over and over again, by means of the pressure sensor 29.
  • the monitoring device 24 is thus designed particularly for determining a pressure pattern. If, after the tensioning of the inhaler 1 or after the monitoring device 24 has been switched on or activated, a user breaths in or inhales through the mouthpiece 13 or other delivery section of the inhaler 1 , air is sucked in through the supply air pathway 44. A reduced pressure is thereby produced in the inhaler 1 or mouthpiece 13. This reduced pressure is measured or detected or determined by the pressure sensor 29 which is fluidically or pressure-connected to the supply air pathway 44 or
  • the monitoring device 24 can also indicate to the user optically and/or acoustically, for example, how long and/or how powerfully he has to breath in and/or inhale and/or when the end of the (required) inhalation is reached.
