Description

L'invention concerne un dispositif de connexion et de vidange d'un emballage contenant un liquide et emboîtable sur un joint solidaire dudit emballage, en particulier pour l'alimentation entérale ou parentérale.The invention relates to a device for connecting and emptying a packaging containing a liquid and nestable on a joint integral with said packaging, in particular for enteral or parenteral feeding.

Le brevet US 3 685 795 concerne une poche collectrice, en particulier pour du sang, comportant un système de liaison permettant d'ouvrir et de fermer à volonté ladite poche pour distribuer partiellement sur une seconde poche le sang de la poche collectrice. Ce système de liaison remplace avantageusement un robinet de distribution et ne concerne en rien l'alimentation entérale ou parentérale.US Patent 3,685,795 relates to a collecting bag, in particular for blood, comprising a connection system making it possible to open and close said bag at will so as to partially distribute the blood from the collecting bag to a second bag. This connection system advantageously replaces a dispensing tap and does not in any way relate to enteral or parenteral feeding.

Il existe déjà de nombreux dispositifs de raccord pour l'alimentation des malades par voie entérale ou paren­térale. Si le raccord est fait sur le bas de la poche d'alimentation, il faut prévoir d'insérer les joints ou les canalisations dans la poche elle-même, ce qui conduit à des défauts d'étanchéité, absolument inacceptables. En plus, la fabrication de ce type de poches, se terminant en forme évasée, et sur lesquelles sont soudées des joints avec canalisations ou des tubes par lesquels il faut introduire une aiguille, est très compliquée et chère. Si le raccord est fait sur le côté de la poche d'alimentation, on utilise le plus souvent une aiguille restant engagée dans la poche pendant usage et qui risque lors de la vidange de percer la face opposée. De plus comme l'aiguille reste à l'intérieur de la poche, celleci ne peut pas se vider entièrement. La présente invention permet de mettre à disposition de l'utilisateur un dispositif absolument sûr, qui est en outre économique, d'emploi rapide et de conception relativement simple, autorisant la vidange complète du produit et l'utili­sation d'une poche de confection simple.There are already many connecting devices for feeding patients enterally or parenterally. If the connection is made on the bottom of the supply bag, it is necessary to plan to insert the seals or the pipes in the bag itself, which leads to sealing defects, absolutely unacceptable. In addition, the manufacture of this type of pockets, ending in flared shape, and on which are welded joints with pipes or tubes through which a needle must be introduced, is very complicated and expensive. If the connection is made on the side of the feed bag, most often a needle remains engaged in the bag during use and which risks during the drain to pierce the opposite side. In addition, as the needle remains inside the pocket, it cannot be completely emptied. The present invention makes it possible to provide the user with an absolutely safe device, which is also economical, quick to use and of relatively simple design, allowing complete emptying of the product and the use of a simple confection bag .

Le dispositif selon l'invention comprend une partie adaptable sur le joint solidaire de l'emballage, une aiguille ayant un axe de symétrie coïncidant sensiblement avec celui de la partie adaptable, un moyen permettant le retour de l'aiguille dans sa position initiale d'une façon automatique ou manuelle et un système pour l'écou­lement du liquide.The device according to the invention comprises an adaptable part on the joint integral with the packaging, a needle having an axis of symmetry substantially coinciding with that of the adaptable part, means allowing the needle to return to its initial position. an automatic or manual way and a system for the liquid flow.

La partie adaptable est rendue solidaire du joint de l'emballage soit par un système à vis, soit à baïonnet­tes, soit à cliquet, soit par emboîtement, de préférence selon un système avec gorge annulaire sur le joint et bossage annulaire sur la partie adaptable ou inversement. Il est nécessaire en tout cas d'arriver à un système de raccordement parfaitement étanche à l'eau.The adaptable part is made integral with the seal of the packaging either by a screw system, or with bayonets, or with ratchet, or by interlocking, preferably according to a system with annular groove on the seal and annular boss on the adaptable part or Conversely. In any case, it is necessary to arrive at a perfectly watertight connection system.

Le matériau utilisé est une matière plastique compatible dans le domaine alimentaire et ayant de bonnes propriétés d'élasticité, tel que les polyoléfines, par exemple le polyéthylène, des élastomères naturels, comme le caout-­chouc ou des élastomères synthétiques comme les silico­nes.The material used is a plastic material compatible in the food sector and having good elasticity properties, such as polyolefins, for example polyethylene, natural elastomers, such as rubber or synthetic elastomers such as silicones.

Selon une première forme de réalisation, le moyen permet­tant le retour de l'aiguille est un système à soufflet disposé dans le prolongement de la partie adaptable sur le joint. Ce système à soufflet comporte entre 1 et 5 plis, de préférence entre 1 et 3 plis. L'utilisation du dispositif selon l'invention sera explicité en référence aux figures.According to a first embodiment, the means allowing the return of the needle is a bellows system arranged in the extension of the adaptable part on the joint. This bellows system has between 1 and 5 plies, preferably between 1 and 3 plies. The use of the device according to the invention will be explained with reference to the figures.

Selon une seconde forme de réalisation, le moyen permet­tant le retour de l'aiguille est un ressort engagé dans la partie adaptable sur le joint. Ce ressort est de préférence un ressort à boudin coaxial avec l'aiguille.According to a second embodiment, the means allowing the return of the needle is a spring engaged in the adaptable part on the seal. This spring is preferably a coil spring coaxial with the needle.

Selon une troisième forme de réalisation, le moyen permettant le retour de l'aiguille est un système à double gorge annulaire sur l'extérieur du joint coopérant avec un système de bossage dans la partie intérieure de la partie adaptable sur le joint. Il est également possible de prévoir deux bossages annulaires sur l'exté­rieur du joint et une gorge annulaire sur la partie adaptable.According to a third embodiment, the means allowing the return of the needle is a system with an annular double groove on the outside of the seal cooperating with a boss system in the interior part of the part adaptable to the seal. It is also possible to provide two annular bosses on the outside of the seal and an annular groove on the adaptable part.

En ce qui concerne l'écoulement du produit d'alimen­tation, il se fait soit par un système de canalisation à l'extérieur de l'aiguille, soit par une canalisation dans le prolongement de l'aiguille, ladite aiguille comportant alors au moins une ouverture.As regards the flow of the feed product, it is done either by a channeling system outside the needle, or by a channel in the extension of the needle, said needle then comprising at least one opening.

L'aiguille fait soit partie intégrante du dispositif, soit elle y est vissée, soudée ou montée par un système de bossage et de gorge annulaire, soit montée en force.The needle is either an integral part of the device, or it is screwed to it, welded or mounted by a system of boss and annular groove, or force-fitted.

On peut également prévoir sur le dispositif selon l'inv­ention un tube d'alimentation supplémentaire permettant l'addition de vitamines ou autres dans l'alimentation de base.One can also provide on the device according to the invention an additional feeding tube allowing the addition of vitamins or others in the basic food.

La suite de la description est faite en référence aux figures sur lesquelles :

  • Fig. 1 est une représentation schématique du dispositif selon l'invention selon le premier mode de réalisation
  • Fig. 2 est une variante du premier mode de réalisation
  • Fig. 3 est une représentation du dispositif selon l'invention dans la seconde forme de réalisation et
  • Fig. 4 est une représentation du dispositif selon l'invention selon la troisième forme de réalisation.
The following description is made with reference to the figures in which:
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of the device according to the invention according to the first embodiment
  • Fig. 2 is a variant of the first embodiment
  • Fig. 3 is a representation of the device according to the invention in the second embodiment and
  • Fig. 4 is a representation of the device according to the invention according to the third embodiment.

Le dispositif (1) selon l'invention est prévu pour être monté sur une poche (2) contenant un produit liquide, par exemple pour alimentation entérale. Cette poche est de préférence une poche en plastique souple comportant un joint (3) avec gorge annulaire. La partie adaptable (4) du dispositif selon l'invention comporte un bossage annulaire permettant la solidarisation du dispositif (1) sur la poche (2). La partie adaptable (4) comprend dans son prolongement un système flexible à soufflet (5) à 5 plis. L'aiguille (6) est coaxiale avec la partie (4) et le système (5) et vissée sur l'embout (7). La canalisa­tion (8) peut être reliée à un tuyau flexible relié lui-même au patient à alimenter. On opère avec le dispo­sitif selon l'invention de la manière suivante : le dispositif (1) est monté sur le joint (3). Pour éviter une perforation de la poche lors du montage dudit dispo­sitif, il est prévu une pièce de maintien (21). On pousse alors avec le doigt dans le sens de la flèche A jusqu'à ce que l'aiguille (6) perfore la paroi de la poche (2), on enlève le doigt, en raison de la conception particu­lière du système flexible (5), l'aiguille (6) revient dans sa position initiale, le liquide est ainsi aspiré hors de la poche (2) et arrive dans le dispositif autour de l'aiguille et s'écoule dans la canalisation (8) vers le patient à alimenter. La longueur de l'aiguille est telle qu'elle perfore l'une des faces de la poche et pas l'autre. On voit donc qu'on dispose, selon l'invention, d'un système pouvant être manipulé sans risque d'erreur par l'utilisateur et dont le montage sur la poche d'ali­mentation prend seulement quelques secondes.The device (1) according to the invention is intended to be mounted on a pocket (2) containing a liquid product, for example for enteral feeding. This pocket is preferably a flexible plastic pocket comprising a seal (3) with an annular groove. The adaptable part (4) of the device according to the invention comprises an annular boss allowing the device (1) to be joined to the pocket (2). The adaptable part (4) comprises in its extension a flexible bellows system (5) with 5 plies. The needle (6) is coaxial with the part (4) and the system (5) and screwed onto the end piece (7). The pipe (8) can be connected to a flexible pipe connected itself to the patient to be supplied. The operation according to the invention is carried out as follows: the device (1) is mounted on the seal (3). To avoid perforation of the pocket during assembly of said device, there is provided a holding part (21). We then push with the finger in the direction of arrow A until the needle (6) punctures the wall of the pocket (2), we remove the finger, due to the particular design of the flexible system (5 ), the needle (6) returns to its initial position, the liquid is thus sucked out of the pocket (2) and arrives in the device around the needle and flows in the pipe (8) towards the patient to feed. The length of the needle is such that it pierces one side of the pocket and not the other. It can therefore be seen that, according to the invention, there is a system which can be manipulated without risk of error by the user and the assembly of which on the supply pocket takes only a few seconds.

Sur la Fig. 2, on a noté par les mêmes références les mêmes éléments. Le dispositif (10) diffère de la Fig. 1 en ce sens que l'aiguille (9), comporte une ouverture (11) par laquelle le liquide d'alimentation va s'écouler vers la canalisation (12). Le principe d'utilisation reste par contre le même que précédemment.In Fig. 2, the same elements have been noted by the same references. The device (10) differs from FIG. 1 in that the needle (9) has an opening (11) through which the feed liquid will flow towards the pipe (12). The principle of use, however, remains the same as before.

Dans la forme de réalisation de la Fig. 3, la poche (2) comporte un joint (22) avec une butée annulaire (23). On engage le dispositif selon l'invention (24) sur le joint (22). La partie adaptable (25) comporte un ressort (26) et une butée (27). L'aiguille (29) comprend une ouverture (28). Dans cette version, l'étanchéité est réalisée par l'aiguille (29) dans l'intérieur du joint (22).In the embodiment of FIG. 3, the pocket (2) has a seal (22) with an annular stop (23). The device according to the invention (24) is engaged on the seal (22). The adaptable part (25) comprises a spring (26) and a stop (27). The needle (29) includes an opening (28). In this version, the seal is produced by the needle (29) in the interior of the seal (22).

Lorsque la partie adaptable (25) est sur le joint (22), on pousse l'aiguille pour qu'elle perce la poche (2). Le ressort (26) se comprime en appuyant sur les butées (23) et (27). Lorsque la poche est percée, on relâche et le dispositif revient dans sa position initiale par la force de réaction du ressort (26). Le liquide s'écoule par l'ouverture (28) dans l'aiguille vers le patient à alimenter.When the adaptable part (25) is on the seal (22), the needle is pushed so that it pierces the pocket (2). The spring (26) is compressed by pressing on the stops (23) and (27). When the pocket is pierced, it is released and the device returns to its initial position by the reaction force of the spring (26). The liquid flows through the opening (28) in the needle towards the patient to be supplied.

Dans la forme de réalisation de la Fig. 4, la poche (2) comporte un joint (14) avec deux gorges annulaires (15),(16). Le dispositif (13) selon l'invention comprend une partie adaptable (17) avec un bossage circulaire (18), l'aiguille (19) et la canalisation (20). On opère de la manière suivante : on pousse le dispositif (13) dans le sens de la flèche A jusqu'à ce que le bossage (18) coopère avec la gorge annulaire (15). L'aiguille (19) perce alors la paroi de la poche (2) et le liquide d'alimentation s'écoule dans le dispositif. Il reste alors à retirer le dispositif (13) jusque dans la posi­tion initiale.In the embodiment of FIG. 4, the pocket (2) has a seal (14) with two annular grooves (15), (16). The device (13) according to the invention comprises an adaptable part (17) with a circular boss (18), the needle (19) and the pipe (20). The procedure is as follows: the device (13) is pushed in the direction of arrow A until the boss (18) cooperates with the annular groove (15). The needle (19) then pierces the wall of the pocket (2) and the feed liquid flows into the device. It then remains to remove the device (13) into the initial position.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est de conception simple, pratique à l'emploi, économique, rapide, permettant la vidange complète du produit sur tout type d'emballage, en particulier sur une poche de forme carrée ou rectangu­laire.
