摘要：

The invention relates to a hand-held device for the dosed distribution of sprayable substances, especially medicaments to be inhaled, said device comprising a cartridge that can be displaced into the distribution-opening position by means of pressure in a housing, and a feeding mechanism moved by the opening course of the cartridge and used to register and display the distribution actuation carried out. Said feeding mechanism is arranged in the centre of a housing below the front wall of the cartridge, on the opening side, overlapping the cartridge valve tube. The aim of the invention is to provide one such hand-held device in a spatially favourable manner, with more reliability in terms of handling, and a simplified structure. To this end, a stepped feeding mechanism arranged in a plate-shaped housing is provided with control elements which rotate about the axis located in the longitudinal direction of the cartridge.
