There is provided an inhalation device suitable for dispensing medicament, particularly medicament for use in the treatment of respiratory disorders. The device comprises a body; a medicament carrier, locatable within said body; a mouthpiece, reversibly movable from a storage position wherein said mouthpiece is within the body to an in-use position wherein a portion of the mouthpiece protrudes from the body and wherein the mouthpiece is in communication with the medicament carrier to allow passage of medicament therebetween; and a mouthpiece actuator coupled to the mouthpiece such that actuation of the mouthpiece actuator moves the mouthpiece towards said storage position and deactuation of the mouthpiece actuator moves the mouthpiece towards the in-use position. The body is shaped to be holdable in one hand and the mouthpiece actuator is actuable in response to a motion of the thumb on the same hand.

There is provided an inhalation device suitable for dispensing medicament, particularly medicament for use in the treatment of respiratory disorders. The device comprises a body; a medicament carrier, locatable within said body; a mouthpiece, reversibly movable from a storage position wherein said mouthpiece is within the body to an in-use position wherein a portion of the mouthpiece protrudes from the body and wherein the mouthpiece is in communication with the medicament carrier to allow passage of medicament therebetween; and a mouthpiece actuator coupled to the mouthpiece such that actuation of the mouthpiece actuator moves the mouthpiece towards said storage position and deactuation of the mouthpiece actuator moves the mouthpiece towards the in-use position. The body is shaped to be holdable in one hand and the mouthpiece actuator is actuable in response to a motion of the thumb on the same hand. ocess of first determining an end timing and an injection period, and then subtracting the injection period from the end timing, if the number of the generation of the signal is greater than or equal to a predetermined number; and set the start timing of the sequential fuel injection at a timing a predetermined period later than the generation of the signal by the third sensor, if the number of the generation of the signal is less than the predetermined number. 6. The fuel injection control device as defined in claim 5, wherein the predetermined number depends on the number of the cylinders. 7. The fuel injection control device as defined in claim 1 further comprising a fourth sensor for detecting a rotation speed of the engine, wherein the controller is further functioning to: command the fuel injectors to perform sequential fuel injection during the intake stroke until the rotation speed of the engine reaches a predetermined rotation speed, if the engine temperature is less than the first predetermined temperature. 8. The fuel injection control device as defined in claim 7, wherein the controller is further functioning to: command the fuel injectors to perform the sequential fuel injection during the exhaust stroke, after the rotation speed of the engine has reached the predetermined rotation speed. 9. The fuel injection control device as defined in claim 1, further comprising a third sensor which generates a signal indicative of a specific rotational position of the crankshaft, wherein the controller is further functioning to: count a number of the generation of the signal by the third sensor; and command the fuel injectors to perform sequential fuel injection during the intake stroke until the number of the generation of the signal reaches a predetermined number, if the engine temperature is less than the first predetermined temperature, wherein the predetermined number is set according to the engine temperature. 10. The fuel injection control device as defined in claim 1, wherein each cylinder is equipped with an intake valve which, when opened, connects the cylinder with the intake port and, when closed, disconnects the cylinder from the intake port, and the controller is further functioning to: control the fuel injectors to perform sequential fuel injection while the intake valve is closed, after the primary fuel injection, if the engine temperature is higher than the first predetermined temperature. 11. The fuel injection control device as defined in claim 1, wherein the controller is further functioning to: command the fuel injectors to perform sequential fuel injection during the exhaust stroke after the primary fuel injection, if the engine temperature is higher than the first predetermined temperature. 12. The fuel injection control device as defined in claim 10, further comprising a third sensor which generates a signal indicative of a specific rotational position of the crankshaft, wherein the controller is further functioning to: set a start timing of the sequential fuel injection at a timing a predetermined period later than the generation of the signal by the third sensor. 13. The fuel injection control device as defined in claim 10, further comprising a third sensor which generates a signal indicative of a specific rotational position of the crankshaft and a fifth sensor which detects a start of the starter motor, wherein the controller is further functioning to: determine whether or not the crankshaft has been rotated a predetermined angle since the start of the starter motor; set a start timing of the sequential fuel injection by a process of first determining an end timing and an injection period, and then subtracting the injection period from the end timing, if the crankshaft has been rotated the predetermined angle since the start of the starter motor; and set the start timing of the sequential fuel injection at a timing a predetermined period later than
