Abstract

The invention relates firstly to a nebulizer (1) for a fluid (3) located in a container (2), having a housing (4), the housing (4) having a mouthpiece (7) and a receiving space (112) for the container (2), which container (2) can be inserted replaceably into the housing (4), wherein further for the preparation of an atomizing process a lower housing part (6) is rotatable relative to an upper housing part (5) having the mouthpiece (7), a counter (16) is provided in the lower housing part (6), for counting atomizing operations carried out with an inserted container (2), and the rotation of the housing parts (5, 6) relative to one another can be used to count the atomizing operations, the counter (16) having a sleeve part (51) which is provided on an outer surface (52) with characters (53) representing atomizing operations counted and with a toothing (57) for toothing engagement, a transmission part (43) further being provided which engages in this toothing (57). In order to further improve the design of a nebulizer of the type in question, it is proposed that the toothing engagement is provided in the transverse direction to a sleeve axis (c) and that the transmission part (43) is arranged and formed for direct cooperation with both the upper housing part (5) and the lower housing part (6) as well as with the sleeve part (51).

Claims (19)
