Zusammenfassung: | A dry-powder inhaler device comprising: a casing; an air inlet located at a first end of said casing; a powder delivery port located at a second end of said casing, said port is positioned distal to said inlet; and an elongated assembly within an interior of said casing, a first end of said assembly is proximal to said air inlet; a second end of said assembly is proximal to said delivery port; said assembly partially rotates within said casing about a single axis; and said assembly comprises at least one compartment containing dry-powder, wherein said dry-powder compartment is proximal to said second end of said assembly; and said dry-powder compartment comprises a porous structure encasing said dry-powder; whereby airflow through said device causes said assembly to partially rotate within said casing about a single axis and dry-powder is thereby released from said compartment and becomes entrained in said airflow. |
