The inhaler, esp. for powder products supplied in gel capsules (G), consists of a housing (1) with a cover, an inner capsule holder and opener, a mouthpiece (11) and an air inlet (21). The capsule holder is in the form of a mobile loader (3) having at least two cells (30), each made to receive one capsule, and system which allows it to move step by step in one direction only, so that each capsule is stopped in turn in line with the mouthpiece. The capsule opener consists of two parallel blades (41,42) which can move relative to the housing and cut off the two ends of each capsule once it is in position for inhaling. The capsule holder can be in the form of a rotary barrel linked to the housing through a freewheel system. |
