Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Verschlusses für ein vorzugsweise steriles Medikamentenbehältnis, wobei der Verschluss aus einem vorgefertigten, topfförmigen Verschlusskörper und einem in diesen eingesetzten, vorgefertigten, elastisch-weichen Dichtelement zusammengesetzt wird, wobei der Verschlusskörper an der Bodenseite seiner Topfform wenigstens eine Durchstichöffnung aufweist, welche durch das Dichtelement verschlossen wird, wobei ein Teil des Dichtelements in Gebrauchsstellung des Verschlusses von außen zugänglich ist.The The invention relates to a method for producing a closure for a preferably sterile medicament container, wherein the closure of a prefabricated, cup-shaped Closure body and in this used, prefabricated, elastic-soft sealing element is assembled, wherein the closure body at least one puncture opening on the bottom side of its pot shape which is closed by the sealing element, wherein a part of the sealing element in the use position of the closure is accessible from the outside.
Derartige
Verschlüsse sind beispielsweise aus der
Das Einspritzen des Dichtelements in die vorgefertigte Kappe garantiert zwar einen beispielsweise für ein steriles Medikamentenbehältnis notwendigen dichten Abschluss zwischen Dichtelement und Kappe, erfordert jedoch aufwendiges Werkzeug im Herstellungsverfahren.The Injection of the sealing element guaranteed in the prefabricated cap Although one, for example, for a sterile medication container necessary tight seal between sealing element and cap, requires however, expensive tool in the manufacturing process.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Herstellungsverfahren für einen Verschluss der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, welches geringe Fertigungskosten verursacht.Of the Invention is based on the object, a production process to provide a closure of the type mentioned, which causes low production costs.
Zur Lösung der Aufgabe ist bei dem Verfahren der eingangs beschriebenen Art vorgesehen, dass in einem ersten Schritt der Verschlusskörper und das Dichtelement in Bereichen, die in Gebrauchsstellung nahe bei der wenigstens einen Durchstichöffnung liegen und diese in geschlossener Form umgeben, angeschmolzen werden und dass in einem zweiten Schritt das Dichtelement in den Verschlusskörper eingesetzt wird, wobei die angeschmolzenen Bereiche miteinander in Kontakt gebracht, abgekühlt und dadurch miteinander verbunden werden.to Solution to the problem is in the method of the initially described Art provided that in a first step, the closure body and the sealing element in areas close in the position of use the at least one puncture opening are and these Surrounded in closed form, to be melted and that in one second step, the sealing element in the closure body is used, wherein the fused areas with each other brought into contact, cooled and thereby with each other get connected.
Durch die gegenseitige Kontaktierung der angeschmolzenen Bereiche wird eine untrennbare, dichte Verbindung zwischen dem Verschlusskörper und dem Dichtelement geschaffen. Dadurch, dass die angeschmolzenen Bereiche die Durchstichöffnung in Gebrauchsstellung umgeben, wird ein dichter Abschluss des Verschlussinneren in Gebrauchsstellung an der Durchstichöffnung erreicht, der eine Anwendung für insbesondere sterile Medikamentenbehältnisse erlaubt. Die Durchstichöffnung erlaubt beispielsweise die Durchführung einer Kanüle zur Medikamentenentnahme aus dem Medikamentenbehältnis durch das Dichtelement hindurch. Die Anordnung der Verbindung von Dichtelement und Verschlusskörper nahe der Durchstichöffnung bewirkt die notwendige mechanische Stabilität des Verschlusses gegen Beschädigungen während des Durchstichvorgangs.By the mutual contact of the melted areas becomes an inseparable, tight connection between the closure body and created the sealing element. Because of the molten areas the puncture opening is surrounded in the use position is a tight closure of the lock interior in the use position reached at the puncture opening, which is an application for especially sterile medication containers allowed. The For example, puncture opening allows the implementation a cannula for withdrawing medication from the medicament container through the sealing element. The arrangement of the connection of Sealing element and closure body near the puncture opening causes the necessary mechanical stability of the closure against damage during the puncture process.
Die erforderliche Abkühlung der angeschmolzenen Bereiche, durch die eine stoffschlüssige Verbindung zwischen Dichtelement und Verschlusskörper hergestellt wird, kann beschleunigt werden, indem der Verschlusskörper und/oder das Dichtelement in thermischen Kontakt mit Kühlmitteln gebracht wird/werden. Für viele Anwendungen ist aber die Kühlwirkung der Haltevorrichtung für das Dichtelement bzw. den Verschlusskörper bereits ausreichend.The required cooling of the melted areas, by the one cohesive connection between the sealing element and closure body is made can be accelerated by the closure body and / or the sealing element in thermal contact with coolants is / are made. For many applications, however, is the cooling effect the holding device for the sealing element or the closure body already sufficient.
Das Dichtelement kann in Gebrauchsstellung des Verschlusses von außen oder von innen in eine Aufnahme des Verschlusskörpers eingesetzt sein. Ist das Dichtelement von außen eingesetzt, so ist sogar ein größerer Teil des Dichtelements von außen zugänglich, als durch die Größe der Dichtöffnung vorgegeben ist. Die Dichtöffnung oder das Dichtelement können durch eine zusätzliche Abdeckung geschützt sein, die vor dem ersten Gebrauch entfernt wird.The Sealing element can in the use position of the closure from the outside or be inserted from the inside into a receptacle of the closure body. Is the sealing element inserted from the outside, so is even a larger part of the sealing element from the outside accessible, as dictated by the size of the sealing opening is. The sealing opening or the sealing element can be protected by an additional cover, which is removed before first use.
Beispielsweise kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Bereich am Verschlusskörper und/oder der Bereich am Dichtelement mit einem Laserlichtstrahl angeschmolzen wird/werden. Von Vorteil ist dabei, dass nahezu beliebige Schmelztemperaturen erreicht werden können.For example can be provided that the area on the closure body and / or the area on the sealing element with a laser light beam is melted / become. The advantage here is that almost any Melting temperatures can be achieved.
Alternativ kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Bereich am Verschlusskörper und/oder der Bereich am Dichtelement mit einem Schweißspiegel angeschmolzen wird/werden. Unter einem Schweißspiegel wird allgemein ein beheizbares Werkzeug verstanden, welches auf eine Temperatur oberhalb der Schmelztemperatur eines zu bearbeitenden Werkstücks aufgeheizt wird und dann nach Art eines Stempels auf das Werkstück aufgesetzt oder aufgedrückt wird, wodurch in den Kontaktbereichen zwischen Werkstück und Schweißspiegel das Werkstück angeschmolzen wird. Durch die Form des Schweißspiegel lässt sich die Form des angeschmolzenen Bereichs am Werkstück genau vorge ben. Schweißspiegel stellen ein kostengünstiges Mittel zum Anschmelzen von Materialien in genau vorgegebenen Bereichen dar.alternative can be provided that the area on the closure body and / or the area on the sealing element with a welding mirror is melted / become. Under a welding mirror is Generally understood a heated tool, which is based on a Temperature above the melting temperature of a to be processed Workpiece is heated and then in the manner of a punch placed on the workpiece or pressed which, in the contact areas between the workpiece and welding mirror melted the workpiece becomes. Due to the shape of the welding mirror leaves the shape of the fused area on the workpiece exactly ben. Welding mirror make a cost-effective Means for melting materials in specified areas represents.
Eine besonders vorteilhafte Kombination kann vorsehen, dass der Bereich am Verschlusskörper mit einem Schweißspiegel angeschmolzen wird und dass der Bereich am Dichtelement mit einem Laserlichtstrahl angeschmolzen wird. Somit kann das Dichtelement aus einem Material gefertigt werden, dessen Schmelztemperatur oberhalb der maximal zulässigen oder maximal erreichbaren Betriebstemperatur des Schweißspiegels liegt.A particularly advantageous combination can provide that the area on the closure body is melted with a welding mirror and that the area is melted at the sealing element with a laser light beam. Thus, the sealing element can be made of a material, whose melting temperature is above the maximum permissible or maximum achievable operating temperature of the welding mirror.
Besonders günstig ist es, wenn der Bereich am Verschlusskörper ring- oder kreisförmig ausgebildet wird. Somit wird eine Verformung der Durchstichöffnung durch das Anschmelzen vermieden. Es sind beliebige Formen, beispielsweise vieleckige, ovale oder kreisrunde Ringformen, verwendbar.Especially It is favorable if the area on the closure body ring-shaped or circular is formed. Thus, a Deformation of the puncture opening due to melting avoided. They are any shapes, such as polygonal, oval or circular ring shapes, usable.
Um den in Gebrauchsstellung von außen zugänglichen Teil des Dichtelements nicht zu zerstören, kann der Bereich am Verschlusskörper und/oder der Bereich am Dichtelement ring- oder kreisförmig ausgebildet werden. Auch hier sind beliebige Formen, beispielsweise vieleckige, ovale oder kreisrunde Ringformen, verwendbar. Die Ringform umschließt dabei denjenigen Teil, der in Gebrauchsstellung von außen zugänglich ist, und spart diesen aus.Around the externally accessible in use position Part of the sealing element can not destroy the area on the closure body and / or the area on the sealing element ring or circular formed. Again, here are any shapes, such as polygonal, oval or circular ring shapes, usable. The ring shape encloses that part, the accessible in use position from the outside is and saves it.
Zur Ausbildung der Form des angeschmolzenen Bereichs kann vorgesehen sein, dass ein Laserlichtstrahl mit einem ring- oder kreisförmigen Querschnitt zum Anschmelzen des Bereichs am Verschlusskörper und/oder des Bereichs am Dichtelement verwendet wird. Somit kann der gesamte Bereich simultan angeschmolzen werden. Die Form des Querschnitts kann durch Strahlformung oder durch Abschattung mit einer Maske definiert werden.to Formation of the shape of the fused area may be provided be that a laser light beam with a ring or circular cross-section for melting the area on the closure body and / or the area is used on the sealing element. Thus, the entire Be melted area simultaneously. The shape of the cross section can be by beam shaping or by shading with a mask To be defined.
Alternativ kann vorgesehen sein, dass ein Laserlichtstrahl mit einem punktförmigen Querschnitt verwendet wird und der Laserlichtstrahl zum Aufschmelzen des Bereichs am Verschlusskörper und/oder des Bereichs am Dichtelement und entlang des aufzuschmelzenden Bereichs bzw. der aufzuschmelzenden Bereiche geführt wird. Somit wird der anzuschmelzende Bereich in einem Zeitabschnitt nach Art eines Scans überstrichen.alternative can be provided that a laser light beam with a punctiform Cross section is used and the laser light beam to melt the area at the closure body and / or area on the sealing element and along the melted area or the melted areas is performed. Thus, will the area to be melted in a period of time in the manner of a Scans overlined.
Besonders günstig ist es, wenn der Verschlusskörper und das Dichtelement im ersten Schritt vor dem Aufschmelzen der Bereiche in eine Vormontageposition gebracht werden, die ein Einsetzen des Dichtelements in den Verschlusskörper durch eine eindimensionale, geradlinige Bewegung ermöglicht. Das Einsetzen und Verbinden kann somit unmittelbar nach dem Anschmelzen ausgeführt werden. Es wird somit vermieden, dass die angeschmolzenen Bereiche vorzeitig wieder erstarren.Especially It is favorable when the closure body and the sealing element in the first step before the melting of the areas be brought into a pre-assembly, the insertion of the sealing element in the closure body by a one-dimensional, rectilinear Movement allows. The insertion and connection can thus be carried out immediately after melting. It This will prevent the molten areas from prematurely to freeze again.
Zur Erzielung kurzer Fertigungszeiten kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Bereich am Verschlusskörper und der Bereich am Dichtelement im ersten Schritt gleichzeitig angeschmolzen werden.to Achieving short production times can be provided that the Area on the closure body and the area on the sealing element be melted in the first step at the same time.
Kurze Verfahrwege und Verfahrzeiten zwischen der Anschmelzposition und der Montageposition werden erreicht, wenn der Laserlichtstrahl zum Aufschmelzen mit einer Spiegeloptik auf die Bereiche am Verschlusskörper und/oder am Dichteelement in Vormontageposition gelenkt wird. Die Distanz zwischen den Positionen, in denen das Anschmelzen des Dichtelements und des Verschlusskörpers einerseits und die Montage des Dichtelements und des Verschlusskörpers andererseits erfolgen, ist somit nicht durch die Abmessungen des Laserlichtstrahlgenera tors nach unten beschränkt.short Travels and travel times between the melting position and the mounting position are reached when the laser light beam for melting with a mirror effect on the areas on the closure body and / or is directed to the sealing element in pre-assembly. The Distance between the positions in which the melting of the sealing element and the closure body on the one hand and the assembly of the Seal element and the closure body on the other hand, is therefore not by the dimensions of the Laserlichtstrahlgenera sector limited to the bottom.
Gemäß einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass für den Verschlusskörper und/oder für das Dichtelement ein optisch und/oder für den Laserlichtstrahl nicht transparentes Material verwendet wird. Es wird somit vermieden, dass bei Gebrauch des Verschlusses auf dem Medikamentenbehältnis sich in dem Verschluss ansammelnde Flüssigkeitsmengen von außen sichtbar sind.According to one Embodiment of the invention can be provided that for the closure body and / or for the sealing element an optically and / or for the laser light beam not transparent material is used. It is thus avoided when using the closure on the medicament container accumulating in the closure Liquid quantities are visible from the outside.
Eine für viele praktische Anwendungen verwendbare Ausgestaltung sieht vor, dass der Verschlusskörper wenigstens zwei Durchstichöffnungen aufweist. In diesem Fall kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Verschlusskörper in zwei Bereichen, die in Gebrauchsstellung nahe bei je einer Durchstichöffnung liegen und diese umgeben, gleichzeitig angeschmolzen wird. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Dichtelement in zwei Bereichen, die in Gebrauchsstellung nahe bei je einer Durchstichöffnung liegen und diese umgeben, gleichzeitig angeschmolzen wird. Hierdurch ergeben sich besonders kurze Fertigungszeiten, und es wird die Gefahr eines vorzeitigen Erstarrens der angeschmolzenen Bereiche, durch welches die Verbindung des Dichtelements mit dem Verschlusskörper beeinträchtigt würde, verringert.A design suitable for many practical applications provides that the closure body has at least two puncture openings. In this case it can be provided that the closure body in two areas, which lie in the position of use close to each of a puncture opening and these are surrounded, at the same time melted. Alternatively or In addition, it can be provided that the sealing element in two areas, which in use position close to each one piercing opening lie and surround it, at the same time melted. hereby This results in particularly short production times, and it becomes the danger premature solidification of the melted areas, through which the connection of the sealing element with the closure body impaired.
Bei einem Ausführungsbeispiel kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Dichtelement mit einer Vorspannung, insbesondere einer radial in Bezug auf Durchstichöffnung ausgerichteten Vorspannung, in den Verschlusskörper eingesetzt wird. Durch die Vorspannung in dem Dichtelement kann sich ein in das Dichtelement mit einer Nadel, Kanüle oder dergleichen eingebrachtes Durchstichloch nach Entfernen dieser Nadel, Kanüle oder dergleichen wieder selbsttätig schließen. Es wird somit ein dichter Abschluss des Medikamentenbehältnisses auch nach Gebrauch er reicht.at An embodiment may provide that the Sealing element with a bias, in particular a radially in Regarding puncture-oriented bias, is inserted into the closure body. By the bias in the sealing element, a in the sealing element with a Needle, cannula or the like inserted puncture hole after removing this needle, cannula or the like again close automatically. It becomes a denser one Completion of the medicine container even after use reached.
Eine besonders widerstandsfähige Außenform ergibt sich, wenn durch das in den Verschlusskörper eingesetzte Dichtelement in Gebrauchsstellung die Durchstichöffnung bzw. die Durchstichöffnungen an dem Verschlusskörper zumindest teilweise, insbesondere vollständig, ausfüllt wird/werden.A particularly resistant outer shape results, if by the sealing element inserted into the closure body in the position of use, the puncture opening or the puncture openings on the closure body at least partially, in particular completely, is / are completed.
Bei dem Verfahren kann ein scheibenförmig ausgebildetes Dichtelement mit Vorteil verwendet werden.at The method may have a disk-shaped sealing element to be used with advantage.
Besonders günstig ist es, wenn ein Dichtelement mit einer Vorderseite und einer Rückseite verwendet wird, wobei die Vorderseite und die Rückseite mit übereinstimmender Form ausgebildet sind. Es muss somit bei Verwendung des Dichtelements nicht mehr kontrolliert werden, ob das Dichtelement in der richtigen Orientierung angeordnet ist, da das Dichtelement in beiden Orientierungen gleichermaßen verwendet werden kann.Especially It is favorable if a sealing element with a front and a back is used, with the front and the back formed with matching shape are. It therefore does not have to when using the sealing element To check whether the sealing element in the correct orientation is arranged, since the sealing element in both orientations alike can be used.
Um zu verhindern, dass die angeschmolzenen Bereiche an dem Schweißspiegel anhängen oder ankleben, kann vorgesehen sein, dass ein Schweißspiegel mit einer Anti-Haft-Beschichtung verwendet wird. Hierbei kann vorgesehen sein, dass für das Dichtelement ein Material verwendet wird, dessen Schmelztemperatur oberhalb der Temperatur liegt, bis zu der die Anti-Haft-Beschichtung zerstörungsfrei verwendbar ist. In diesem Fall kann das Anschmelzen des Dichtelements beispielsweise durch Laserlichtbestrahlung erfolgen.Around to prevent the molten areas on the welding mirror attach or stick, it can be provided that a welding mirror is used with an anti-stick coating. This can be provided be that uses a material for the sealing element is, whose melting temperature is above the temperature, up to which the non-stick coating can be used non-destructively is. In this case, the melting of the sealing element, for example done by laser light irradiation.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren kann vorteilhaft zur Fertigung eines Verschlusses für ein vorzugsweise steriles Medikamentenbehältnis eingesetzt werden.The inventive method can be advantageous for Production of a closure for a preferably sterile Medicament container be used.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren kann die Verwendung von Laserlichtstrahlen zum Aufschmelzen von Bereichen an einem Dichtelement und/oder an einem Verschlusskörper vorgesehen sein.at the method of the invention, the use of laser light beams for melting areas on a sealing element and / or be provided on a closure body.
Der Verschlusskörper ist vorzugsweise aus einem schmelzbaren Kunststoff, also einen Thermoplast, gefertigt.Of the Closure body is preferably made of a fusible Plastic, so a thermoplastic manufactured.
Das Dichtelement ist vorzugsweise aus einem thermoplastischen Elastomer (TPE) gefertigt.The Sealing element is preferably made of a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) made.
Die Erfindung wird nun anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen beschrieben, ist aber nicht auf die Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt. Weitere Ausführungsbeispiele ergeben sich durch Kombination der Merkmale der Patentansprüche untereinander und/oder mit Merkmalen der Ausführungsbeispiele.The Invention will now be described with reference to exemplary embodiments, but is not limited to the embodiments.
