Some embodiments of a tally stamp device described herein provide a stamp and a counter system. The tally stamp may include an elongate body housing the stamp and counter system.

A fluid dispenser comprising a body (1), a fluid reservoir (2), a dispenser member, such as a pump or a valve, mounted on said reservoir (2), and a dose indicator device for indicating the number of doses of fluid that have been dispensed or that remain to be dispensed from said reservoir, the dispenser being characterized in that said dose indicator device includes a first safety system for actuating the dose indicator device once the dispenser has performed a predetermined incomplete actuation stroke, even if the dispenser does not perform the complete actuation stroke.

A handheld device for dispensing a pharmaceutical substance has a housing in which a storage container with the pharmaceutical substance and a counter are arranged. The storage container dispenses the pharmaceutical substance by pressure actuation by a user after a specified displacement path has been traversed, and the counter carries out an action in order to rotate a counter wheel of the counter on the basis of the displacement path being traversed. The counter additionally has a drive part rotates the counter wheel, and the counter wheel is rotatably attached to a mounting part. The mounting part is formed independently of the housing, and the drive part is directly attached to the mounting part. The handheld device advantageously dispenses a pharmaceutical substance in that the action is first carried out on the counter wheel of the counter upon the pressure actuation, and the pharmaceutical substance is then dispensed.

The present invention relates to at least one mold (K) used for the manufacturing of parts in an autoclave oven (O), a body (2) suitable for use in the autoclave oven (O) and located on the mold (K), at least one rod (3) which is located on the body (2) and is capable to elongate and contract due to heat, at least one gear (4) located on the body (2) so as to rotate about its own axis, a gear (4) which extends when the heat in the autoclave oven (O) increases to trigger the gear (4), and which is triggered by the rod (3) to rotate about its own axis, and a counter (5) which is triggered with the rotational movement of the gear (4) and provides information about the number of uses of the mold (K) depending on the rotational movement.

An article of clothing wear indicator and/or use counter for tracking the number of times an article of clothing has been worn. The clothing wear tracker includes an intermediate portion or body, an upper portion or body, and a lower portion or body. Preferably, the clothing wear tracker is configured to allow both the upper portion or body and the lower portion or body to rotate about the intermediate portion or body independently. The clothing wear tracker is designed to fit or secure to a hanger and to provide a mechanism for tracking the number of times a user wears an article of clothing, such as a shirt, a blouse, pants, or a dress, and is easily attachable or securable to a clothing hanger.

The invention describes a novel method of transducing a force input into a perpendicularly directed advance of a geared component. This simple mechanism allows for the implementation of latches, accelerometers, tilt sensors, and counters that are uniquely inexpensive, robust, compact, and easy to implement, since they are able to rely on purely mechanical operation.

A cleaning management apparatus manages bedside cleaning for an endoscope connected to an examination apparatus. After an examination is completed, a measurement unit measures the operation time of a predetermined operation button of the endoscope. A recording control unit records that a preliminary cleaning has already been performed when the operation time that has been measured satisfies a completion condition. A notification unit gives notice of a message indicating that the preliminary cleaning is completed when the measured operation time satisfies the completion condition.

A device for dosing or counting objects includes: a plate with a plurality of recesses, each suitable for receiving a single object and arranged in at least two series of at least two rows in parallel along a longitudinal axis, such that the recesses in a first row of one series are offset longitudinally relative to the recesses in the second row of the same series by a non-zero pitch; and a pull element arranged to slide relative to the plate along the longitudinal axis and comprising at least two adjacent tongues, each designed to cover or reveal a corresponding series of rows and arranged to slide relative to one another over a distance equal to the pitch and coupled by a drive mechanism such that the sliding of the pull element along the longitudinal axis over a distance greater than the pitch causes the simultaneous movement of two tongues.

The present application provides a priming member for an inhaler and a method of loading an inhaler with a carrier for treating a respiratory disease by inhaling a powder from the inhaler. The priming member comprises a cantilever blade configured to engage a chassis of the inhaler, the cantilever blade having a proximal portion, a body and a distal portion, the body being disposed between the proximal portion and the distal portion of the cantilever blade and the cantilever blade having a flexible portion extending with the proximal portion of the cantilever blade to allow movement of the cantilever blade relative to the chassis.
