Description

Die Erfindung betrifft sog. kindersichere Verschlußstopfen, d.h. solche, die gegen unbefugtes Öffnen gesichert sind und im Zusammenhang mit Behältern verwendet werden, die einen für Kinder gefährlichen Inhalt haben, also in erster Linie Arzneimittelbehälter zur Aufnahme von Tabletten und Dragees.The invention relates to so-called childproof plugs, i.e. those which are secured against unauthorized opening and are used in connection with containers which have a content which is dangerous for children, that is to say primarily medicament containers for holding tablets and dragees.

Die Erfindung geht dabei aus von einem Behälter etwa gemäß der DE 30 19 180 A1, bei dem der den Behälterrand überragende Teil ausgehend vom Behälterrand konisch verjüngt ist und so keine das Entfernen des Stopfens ermöglichende Grifffläche bietet. Um dieses Entfernen zu ermöglichen, ist im obersten Teil des Stopfens ein in seitlichen Nuten geführter Schieber vorgesehen, der in eingeschobener Stellung die Außenkonturen des Stopfens nicht überragt, wobei seine Oberfläche etwa bündig mit der des Stopfens verläuft, während er andererseits über den Behälterrand hinaus verschiebbar ist und dann eine Grifffläche zur Entfernung des Stopfens darstellt.The invention is based on a container, for example according to DE 30 19 180 A1, in which the part projecting beyond the container edge is tapered starting from the container edge and thus does not offer a gripping surface that enables the plug to be removed. In order to enable this removal, a slide guided in lateral grooves is provided in the uppermost part of the stopper, which in the inserted position does not protrude beyond the outer contours of the stopper, its upper end surface runs approximately flush with that of the stopper, while on the other hand it can be moved beyond the edge of the container and then represents a gripping surface for removing the stopper.

Gerade in der pharmazeutischen Industrie besteht nun das Bedürfnis und in manchen Ländern auch eine Vorschrift, die Behälter so zu verschließen, daß erkennbar ist, wenn der Behälter nach dem Verschließen durch den Hersteller geöffnet worden ist, also einen sog. Originalitätsverschluß zu verwenden.In the pharmaceutical industry in particular, there is now a need, and in some countries also a requirement, to close the container in such a way that it is recognizable when the container has been opened by the manufacturer after the closure, that is to say to use a so-called tamper-evident closure.

Der Erfindung liegt nun die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese Forderung auch bei enem kindersicheren Verschluß der vorstehend beschriebenen Art gemäß der genannten DE 30 19 180 A1 in einfacher Weise zu erfüllen, also einen kindersicheren Originalitätsverschluß zu schaffen.The invention is based on the object of fulfilling this requirement in a simple manner even with a childproof closure of the type described above in accordance with the aforementioned DE 30 19 180 A1, ie to create a childproof tamper-evident closure.

Diese Aufgabe löst die Erfindung durch eine bei eingeschobenem Schieber einheitliche Vertiefung, die beiderseits einer der seitlichen Grenzlinien zwischen Schieber und Stopfen jeweils etwa hälftig in die Schieber- und Stopfenoberfläche eingeformt ist und in der ein ihrer Form entsprechendes Markierungsplättchen absprengbar befestigt, z.B. eingeschweißt oder eingeklebt ist.This object is achieved by the invention with a uniform recess when the slide is inserted, which is formed on both sides of one of the lateral boundary lines between the slide and the stopper approximately halfway into the slide and stopper surface and in which a marking plate corresponding to its shape is detachably attached, e.g. is welded or glued.

VOrzugsweise hat diese Vertiefung die Form einer Kugelkalotte und die Oberfläche des vorzugsweise eine vonder Färbung von Schieber und Stopfen abweichende auffallende Farbe aufweisenden Markierungsplättchens kann gegenüber den gemeinsamen Oberflächen von Schieber und Stopfen versenkt sein.Preferably, this recess has the shape of a spherical cap and the surface of the marking plate, which preferably has a striking color which differs from the color of the slide and stopper, can be recessed relative to the common surfaces of the slide and stopper.

Die Erfindung ist im folgenden anhand der Zeichnung beispielhaft beschrieben.Es stellen dar:

  • Fig. 1 eine Aufsicht auf einen Stopfen bei eingeschobenem Schieber und eingesetztem Markierungsplättchen;
  • Fig. 2 den Stopfen nach Fig. 1 bei ausgeschobenem Schieber;
  • Fig. 3 einen Schnitt entlang der Linie 111-111 in Fig. 1 und
  • Fig. 4 eine Seitenansicht eines Schiebers mit abgewandelter Vertiefung.
The invention is described below by way of example with reference to the drawing.
  • Figure 1 is a plan view of a stopper with the slider inserted and the marker plate inserted.
  • FIG. 2 shows the stopper according to FIG. 1 with the slide pushed out;
  • Fig. 3 is a section along the line 111-111 in Fig. 1 and
  • Fig. 4 is a side view of a slide with a modified recess.

Der Stopfen 1 nach den Fig. 1 bis 3 ist in seinem oberen, den Rand des (nicht dargestellten) Behälters überragenden Teil 2 konisch verjüngt, so daß er keine Grifffläche zur Entfernung des Stopfens aus dem Behälter bietet. Hierzu dient vielmehr ein Schieber 3, der in seitlichen Nuten 4 und 5 des Stopfenobep- teiles geführt ist und in der eingeschobenen Stellung, wie aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich, die Außenkonturen des Stopfens nicht überragt, während er andererseits, wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich, seitlich so weit verschoben werden kann, daß er den Behälterrand überragt und eine Handhabe zum Herausziehen des Stopfens aus der Behälteröffnung bildet.The stopper 1 according to FIGS. 1 to 3 is conically tapered in its upper part 2, which projects beyond the edge of the (not shown) container, so that it does not offer a gripping surface for removing the stopper from the container. Rather, a slide 3 is used for this purpose, which is guided in lateral grooves 4 and 5 of the plug part p and, in the inserted position, as can be seen in FIG. 1, does not protrude beyond the outer contours of the plug, while on the other hand, as in FIG. 2, it can be seen laterally so far that it extends beyond the edge of the container and forms a handle for pulling the stopper out of the container opening.

Eine nach unten aus dem Schieber 3 vorspringende Nase 6 stößt bei der seitlichen Verschiebung gegen eine Stufe 7 einer Aussparung 8 in der Schieberführung und verhindert ein völliges Herausziehen des Schiebers.A nose 6 projecting downward from the slide 3 abuts a step 7 of a recess 8 in the slide guide during the lateral displacement and prevents the slide from being pulled out completely.

Die Oberfläche 9 des Schiebers verläuft dabei bündig mit der Oberfläche 10 des Stopfens 1.The surface 9 of the slide is flush with the surface 10 of the stopper 1.

Um aus einem solchen bekannten kindersicheren Sbpfen einen ebenfalls kindersicheren Originalitätsverschluß zu machen, ist beiderseits einer der seitlichen Grenzlinien 11 bzw. 12 jeweils etwa hälftig in beide Oberflächen 9 und 10 eine bei eingeschobenem Schieber einheitliche Vertiefung 13 in Form einer Kugelkalotte eingeformt und in dieser ein ihrer Form entsprechendes Markierungsplättchen 14 absprengbar befestigt, beispielsweise thermogeschweißt oder mit einem spröden Kleber eingeklebt, so daß es nicht herausfallen kann.In order to make a child-proof tamper-evident closure from such a well-known child-proof bowl, one half of each of the lateral boundary lines 11 and 12 is formed approximately equally in both surfaces 9 and 10 in a recess 13 in the form of a spherical cap in the form of a spherical cap, and one in it Form corresponding marking plate 14 attached detachably, for example thermally welded or glued with a brittle adhesive so that it can not fall out.

Wird nun der Schieber aus der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Stellung, die er einnimmt, wenn der Verschluß in der Verpackungsmaschine auf den gefüllten Behälter aufgesetzt wird, in die in Fig. 2 dargestellte, das Herausnehmen des Stopfens ermöglichende verschoben, so verschieben sich die zwei Teile der Vertiefung 13 gegeneinander und das in der Vertiefung sitzende Markierungsplättchen wird herausgesprengt, was durch die zu den Rändern hin ansteigende Kalottenform der Vertiefung begünstigt wird. ,If the slider is now moved from the position shown in FIG. 1, which it assumes when the closure is placed on the filled container in the packaging machine, into the position shown in FIG. 2 that enables the plug to be removed, the two move Parts of the recess 13 against each other and the marker plate sitting in the recess is blown out, which is favored by the dome shape of the recess rising towards the edges. ,

Wird nach Entnahme der benötigten Menge des Behälterinhalts der Schieber wieder in die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Stellung hineingeschoben, um das Entfernen des Stopfens durch Kinder zu verhindern, so signalisiert das Fehlen des Markierungsplättchens 14, daß der Behälter bereits einmal geöffnet wurde.If, after removal of the required amount of the container contents, the slide is pushed back into the position shown in FIG. 1 in order to prevent children from removing the stopper, the absence of the marking plate 14 signals that the container has already been opened once.

Um ein unbeabsichtigtes Lösen des Markierungsplättchens aus der Vertiefung zu verhindern, ist es vorteilhaft, seine Oberfläche gegenüber der gemeinsamen Oberfläche von Schieber und Stopfen zu versenken.In order to prevent the marking plate from unintentionally detaching from the depression, it is advantageous to lower its surface relative to the common surface of the slide and plug.

Die Unversehrtheit des Verschlusses ist besonders auffällig erkennbar, wenn das Markierungsplättchen 14 eine von der Färbung von Schieber und Stopfen abweichende auffällige Farbe hat.The integrity of the closure is particularly noticeable if the marking plate 14 has a striking color that differs from the color of the slide and stopper.

Das Markierungsplättchen besteht ebenso wie Stopfen und Schieber vorzugsweise aus einem thermoplastischen Kunststoff.The marking plate, like the stopper and slide, is preferably made of a thermoplastic.

In Fig. 4 ist eine Seitenansicht eines Schiebers gezeigt, bei dem die Vertiefung 15 keine Kalottenform hat, sondern keilförmig von einem tiefsten Punkt zum vorderen und hinteren Rand hin geradlinig ansteigt, selbstverständlich sind auch andere Längsschnittsformen der Vertiefung möglich, wie es auch nicht erforderlich ist, daß die Vertiefung in der Draufsicht wie in den Fig. 1 und 2 dargestellt, kreisförmig ist, vielmehr kann sie gerade im Falle eines keilförmigen Längsschnitts gemäß Fig. 4 auch eine ovale, quadratische, rechteckige oder vieleckige Form haben.4 shows a side view of a slide in which the recess 15 has no spherical shape, but rises in a wedge shape from a deepest point to the front and rear edge, of course other longitudinal sectional shapes of the recess are also possible, as is also not necessary that the depression in the top view as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is circular, rather it can have an oval, square, rectangular or polygonal shape, especially in the case of a wedge-shaped longitudinal section according to FIG. 4.
