Abstract:
1. Dosage-dispensing device for dosage material in powder- or paste form comprising: a holder device; at least one receiving device receiving at least one removable dosage-dispensing unit; and at least one actuator whose action is directed at the receiving device, wherein the receiving device is pivotably supported on the holder device and configured with freedom for performing an oscillatory pendulous movement in response to operation of the actuator along a pivot axis, wherein the pivot axis of the receiving device is arranged substantially with a horizontal orientation when the dosage-dispensing device is in its operating position; and a drive device with a drive shaft which can be connected to a closure shaft and/or to a stirring mechanism shaft of the dosage-dispensing unit by a coupler device, the coupler device being arranged in a horizontal plane that contains the pivot axis, and the coupler device having a length- and angle-adaptation capability to absorb axial displacements and changes of an angle between respective rotary axes of the closure shaft and the drive shaft which occur as a result of said pendulous movements.
