A rotator mechanism for rotating an elongate member in a pumping system includes a body member having a longitudinal body axis and a through-hole aligned with the body axis and configured to receive the elongate member. The rotator mechanism also includes a worm gear concentric with the body axis and a worm meshing with the worm gear. The rotator mechanism includes a lever configured to rotate the worm, and a clutch coupled between the lever and the worm and configured to cause the worm to rotate in a first direction when the lever moves in the first direction. Rotation of the worm causes the worm gear and the elongate member to rotate about the body axis.

A drive mechanism for a medication delivery device is proposed, the drive mechanism comprising a housing having a proximal end and a distal end, a rotation member which is adapted to be rotated in a first direction with respect to the housing during setting of a dose of a medication and to be rotated in a second direction with respect to the housing during delivery of the dose, the second direction being opposite to the first direction, a piston rod which is adapted to be displaced in a distal direction with respect to the housing for delivering the dose, a drive member which follows rotational movement of the rotation member in the second direction during delivery of the dose, and a stop member which prevents rotational movement of the drive member with respect to the housing in the first direction during setting of the dose, wherein the rotational movement of the drive member in the second direction is converted into movement of the piston rod in the distal direction with respect to the housing. Furthermore, a medication delivery device is provided for.

A rotation-blocking device including a stator, a rotor, at least one blocking element mounted between the stator and the rotor to be movable between a position of interaction with the rotor and the stator and a position retracted relative to the rotor, and actuator means including a coil wound on the stator and connected to a control unit to power the coil so as to create a magnetic field, the blocking element being made of a material sensitive to the magnetic field in such a manner that powering the coil causes the blocking element to move towards one of its positions. A rotary actuator including such a device.

A fan wheel with fan blades which are supported in a hub so as to be pivotable about the longitudinal fan blade axes, with the fan wheel including a drive flange which is connected to the hub via a limited free-wheeling structure, is provided with a planetary transmission arranged between the drive flange and the fan blades. A sun gear of the planetary transmission which is connected to the drive flange for rotation therewith and the drive flange are arranged at axially opposite front sides of the fan wheel.
