Abstract
A package for the transportation of potentially hazardous substances such as patho-logical samples comprises a closed tubular inner container (2) supported within a closed tu-bular outer container (4) in such a manner that the inner container (2) is spaced from both ends of the outer container (4). The inner container (2) includes an external annular flange (8) which is engageable with means in the interior of the outer container (4). These means may either be a tapered area (12) within which the flange (8) can wedge or a step on which the flange (8) can rest. A stop means (14) provided at the bottom of the outer container (4) prevents jamming of the flange (8) within the tapered area (12). A resilient packing means may be provided between the closures (6, 10) of the inner and outer containers (2, 4). Absor-bent material may be provided at the bottom of the outer container to absorb any contents leaking from the inner container.
Description
214~28 ~0 94/07764 PCr/A~193/00494 OONTAINERS FOR POTENTIALLYEI~ZARDOUS SUBSTANOES
The present invention relates to containers for potentially hazardous substances such as pathological samples, di~gnostic products, or infectious 5 sllhst~nces (hereinafter referred to as "pathological samples") and more particularly to c~nt~iners for the transport of pathological samples by post or by road, rail, air or sea Convention~lly, pathological samples such as blood specimens are 10 stored in a closed bottle or tube for transportation to a pathology or research laboratory for analysis. When the container needs to be sent by post, road, rail, air or sea ~ spoll to the laboratory, the co~t~iner is placed within outerp~.k~ging the primary purpose of which is to protect the container against damage if the package is dropped, crushed or is otherwise subjected to mis-15 treatment during h~nt1ling Generally, prior methods of p~ck~ging thec~nt~iners have not been entirely satisfactory and breakage of the container and/or leakage have occurred, resulting in cont~min~tion of the outer p~.king A particular problem with air-freighting is the container may be subject to s~1bst~nti~l temperature and pressure variations, particularly in an 20 unpressurised hold, and this can give rise to leakage.

2 ~ - 2 -its tubular body which is supported from a zone of re~ cing cross-sectional area within the interior of the outer container or from a step within the interior of the outer container. , S Preferably, the inner and outer containers each consist of a preform for a plastics bottle.
An embodiment of the invention will now be described, by wa~ of f-Y~mple only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the sole~figure of 10 which shows, srhem~tically, a longit~-(lin~l section through a trans~llation package in accordance with the present invention.
As shown in the accoln~allying drawings a package for the transportation of p~thological s~mples or other potentially hazardous material 15 colllplises an inner elongate tubular Co.~ f ~ 2 for storing the s~mple~, thecontainer 2 being SU~PO1 led within an outer tubular container 4 which protects the inner container 2 against damage but which is able to contain leakage if the integrity of the inner container 2 is damaged. The inner container 2 is closed at its lower end and is open at its upper end, the upper end being 20 threaded to receive a threaded closure cap 6. The cap 6 incl~ es an internal seal in order to prevent leakage of fluid from the inner container 2. The cap 6 may also incl~lde a ~amper-resict~nt element 6a to provide a visual indication of ln~llthorised removal of the cap. An ~nn~ r flange 8 is formed integrally with the body of the container 2 beyond the threaded zone at which the cap 6 25 is fitted and serves to support the inner contail~r 2 within the outer container 4 with the longit~l~lin~l axes of the two containers being ~llbst~nti~lly coin~ide.nt The outer container 4 is also of tubular form closed at its lower end and open at its upper end and is externally threaded at that end to receive a threaded closure cap 10 which in~ es an internal seal in order to prevent 30 leakage of fluid from within the-outer container. The cap 10 for the outer container may also include a tamper-resislant element lOa to indicate n~ horised removal of the cap.
~O 94/07764 21 ~ 5 5 2 8 pcr/Au93/oo4s4 The wall thickness of the outer container 4 increases from the upper end portion to a larger thickness ~en~ling along a sl-kst~nti~l portion of the length of the container, the portion of lesser thickness being connected to the portion of greater thickness by a portion of progres~iv~ly increasing thickness S which defines within the interior of the container a zone 12 of progressively red~ing cross se~l;oI-~l size. The diarneter of the flange 8 on the inner c~nt~iner 2 is such that the flange 8 is able to SUPPO1 ~ the inner container 2 within the outer container 4 by wedging within the zone 12; as shown the support is at the cornrnencement of the zone 12. The two cont~inrrs 2, 4 are 10 so sized that when the flange 8 on the inner container 2 is wedged within thezone 12, the wall of the inner container 2 is spaced from the wall of the outer cont~iner 4 and the closed end of the inner container 2 lies short of the closedend of the outer conta,ller 4. If required, when the sample has been intro~ cecl into the inner container 2 and the dosure cap 6 for the inner 15 ~nt~iner 2 has been applied, resilient p~rkin~ material, for r Y~mrle a resilient foam plug, can be inserted into the open end of the outer container 4 to cushion the inner container 2 against possible displ~cem~nt Lc,w~S the cap 10 of the outer c~ntailler 4 due to shock loading. Preferably, a stop 14 is provided at the bottom of the outer container 4 to limit ~essive disrl~cement 20 of the inner container 2 towards the bottom of the outer container 4 and which might result in the flange 8 becoming jammed within the zone 12 ~vhereby subsequent removal of the inner container 2 might be impossible. The stop 14 can be a separate component inserted into the container 4 after manufacture of the container 4, or the cQnt~iner 4 can be integrally formed with a suitable 2~ stop for ~x~ ple in the form of a peg llrst~n-linE from the bottom wall.
Preferably, the outer cont~intor 4 inrllldes, for rY~mrle at its bottom portion,absorbent material such as crystals or a so-called super absorbent for absorbingthe whole of the contents of the inner container in case the latter leaks.
In an alternative embodiment the flange 8 on the inner container can be supported on a step formed on the inner surface of the outer container.
WO 94/0776~ 2 ~ 2 8 PCl/AU93/00~9~ 1 The inner and outer containers 2, 4 are preferably constructed from a non-brittle, flexible, plastics material such as PET, PETG, polycarbonate, or PVC. The caps 6, 10 for the inner and outer containers 2, 4 are also preferably constructed from a non-brittle p~stics material such as high density S polyethylene, PET, PETG, polycarbonate, or b~ktolite. The internal seals within the caps 6, 10 may, for example, be of low density polyethylene, EVA, or PVC.
The package con.cictin~ of the inner and outer containers is placed 10 within a suitable box or other outer wrapping for carrying address information and other data. The box may, for example, consist of foamed polystyrene or other foamed plastics material having a compartment shaped to securely house the package and particularly to protect the cap of the outer container which is likely to represent the weakest part of the package unless a high strength 15 plastics is used for the cap. The box may have several individual co~ lments so that several packages can be transported within the same box.
The combination of the two containers described provide a package 20 which is not liable to leakage even with gross mis-h~n~lling including dlop~illg and crushing. The package can contain such pressure differentials as may be encountered during air-freight even under the pressures and temperatures likely to be encountered within an unpressurised hold of an aircraft. The package when within a foamed plastics outer box as discussed above can also 25 withct~n~l irnpact tests and drop tests æ currently prescribed by aviation authorities.
Although the inner and outer containers 2, 4 may be fabricated specifically for the purpose described, we have determined that a suitable inner30 container and outer container are each independently available as pre-forrns of different size for subsequent fabrication into plactics bottles, for exarnple for soft drinks, by expanding the pre-form by blowing within a mould. Such ~ 21~528 ~o 94/0776-1 Pcr/Aus3/oo494 eÇo~ s will have the supporting flange required for the inner container and the varying wall thickness required for the outer container to provide the required co-operation with the flange. As such, the containers can be purchased at relatively low cost.
The embodiment has been described by way of example only with reference to the ~companying drawings and modifications are possible within the scope of the invention.
