Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007009872A1] The invention relates to an inhaler (1) for powdery, especially medical substances (17), comprising an air duct (45) that leads to a mouthpiece (3), a reservoir (16) for the substance (17), and a moved dosing chamber (D) for apportioning a specific amount of substance from the reservoir (16) into the zone of a transfer point (U) to the air flow. A filling means (B) which charges the dosing chamber (D) similar to a shovel is moved towards the dosing chamber (D) so as to penetrate the substance supply. In order to create a simple design for such an inhaler in such a way that the same is easy and functionally safe to handle regarding apportioning a reproducible amount of substance, the shovel-type charging process performed by the filling means (B) is derived from a relative movement between the dosing chamber (D) and the reservoir (16).
