Definitions

  • FR-A 2 581 036 a stopper has been described allowing the closure of containers such as tubes and vials, in particular for pharmaceutical products, this stopper ensuring protection against the ambient environment and the inviolability of the receptacle.
  • This stopper comprises a lower tubular element which penetrates into the tubular part of the packaging, and which is extended, at its upper part, by a flat horizontal wall forming a cover, this flat horizontal wall having on its peripheral external edge, a flare or a ring cooperating with recesses or bulges arranged in the internal part of the cap or of the skirt of the outer cap placed on the container and ensuring inviolability.
  • the patient has great difficulty in placing the exact prescribed number of granules, for example two or three granules, in the tubular lower element forming a stopper, and therefore has to manipulate this tubular lower element several times and risk of losing part of the granules contained therein.
  • the present invention overcomes these drawbacks by creating an internal tubular element of the stopper, the upper face of which has alveoli while the lower face has another number of alveoli, thereby temporarily maintaining the number of granules necessary because even if the patient has brings out more than this number, it can easily reintroduce the surplus into the container, so that the necessary granules remain in the bottom of the internal tubular element of the plug held by the cells.
  • the invention is defined in claim 1.
  • an outer cap 1 which consists of a closed tubular element, at its upper part, by a top 2 having in the present case an outer circular rim 3 thus delimiting, on the middle of the top 2, a space 4 which can, for example, receive a circular label giving an indication of the product contained in the container which may be a bottle or a tube.
  • a stopper 5 (fig. 2) constituted by a flat horizontal surface 6 extended at its lower part by a skirt 7 slightly frustoconical facilitating its engagement in the interior of the tube or the neck of the bottle.
  • the flat surface 6 is extended by an additional thickness 6a with flared peripheral edges 6b which is applied to the top of the neck of the bottle or of the tube, thus ensuring the tightness of the container vis-à-vis the external environment.
  • the flared peripheral edge 6b of the plug 5 cooperates with internal recesses 8 arranged in the present case at 90 ° from each other provided in the internal wall of the upper cap.
  • These redents 8 came from molding when the cap is made of moldable plastic.
  • the outer cap 1 is pulled, which leaves the cap 5 in place because the peripheral edge 6a emerges from the inner recesses 8.
  • the force holding the skirt 7 from the cap 5 to the inside the container is greater than the resistance of the edge 6a vis-à-vis the inner redents 8 of the cap 1.
  • the plug 5 is removed by hand. Conversely, the bottle is capped.
  • the cap 10 of cylindrical shape has a horizontal top 11 whose periphery is bordered by a skirt 12 as in the previous case; the top 11 also includes a circular rim 13 delimiting a space 14.
  • the skirt 12 has, at its upper part, bulges 15 arranged in this case at 90 ° from one another so as to grip the plug 17 which has a lower tubular part 17a (fig. 4) intended to penetrate into the neck of the bottle or the top of the tube.
  • the bulges 15 (as well as the recesses 8 in FIG. 1) can be arranged at will at 90 ° , 120 ° or 180 ° from each other.
  • the periphery of the upper part of the plug 17 has one or more rings 19 for cooperating with the outer skirt 12.
  • the plug 17 is delivered integral with the cap 10 so as to place the plug 17 and the cap 10 on the tube in a single operation, which saves a great deal of time and also allows the machine to be plugged. automatic.
  • each cap 1 or 10 is detached from the container before the cap 5 or 17, the resistance to disengagement of which is greater, is torn from the tube or the bottle; there is therefore no risk of inadvertently spilling the products contained in the tube or bottle.
  • caps and plugs described above are made of any suitable material, compatible with the packaging and the product to be protected, but, in general, they are made of natural or synthetic plastics by molding in order to obtain products of very high quality. good quality.
  • the base of the lower tubular part 7, 17a of the plug 5, 17 is hollowed out at 30 and comprises two cells 31, 32 as is clearly visible in FIG. 6.
  • the upper part 7b, 17b of this same plug also has an upper circular recess 34 (see fig. 5) which contains three cells 35, 36, 37.
