Dispenser for media
First Claim
1. Dispenser for a medium, said dispenser comprising:
- a storage container;
a discharge opening;
a medium path linking the storage container and the discharge opening;
a delivery device for delivering medium from the storage container via the medium path to the discharge opening as a function of the operation of an operating device, said operating device comprising an electronic detecting unit for producing a signal representing the discharged medium quantity, the delivery device being a manually operable piston pump having a stroke path; and
at least one sensor for detecting at least indirectly values representing the stroke path of the piston.

Abstract
The problem of the invention is to so develop known dispensers, that it is possible to very precisely determine the actual discharged medium volume.
A dispenser according to the invention has a media path, which leads from a medium storage container to a discharge opening. A delivery device for delivering medium is located in said media path. The media reservoir stores a medium, particularly a fluid, which preferably incorporates at least one pharmaceutical substance. A media discharge can be brought about by means of an operating means. According to the invention, on the dispenser is provided an electronic detecting device for detecting a quantity representing the amount of medium discharged.
