  • EP-A-0 092 281 relates to a system for making available to the user articles of food, which comprises a tube containing said articles and a holder with a support element.
  • the tube is slid into the holder and the user is able to take articles of food out through an opening in the tube, located close to the support element. Therefore, said articles move downwards in turn towards the opening, to rest on the support, under the influence of gravity.
  • a packaging container or receptacle for the medical products functions on the one hand as a hermetic sealer to protect the quality of the products.
  • the packaging container is required to have such function that can allow easy take-out of the medical products when necessary.
  • a carrier dispenser is attached to an original container when solid medicines such as tablets, capsulated materials etc. which are relatively often carried outside among the medical products are concerned.
  • the solid medicines when the solid medicines are carried outside, the solid medicines should be repacked from the original container to the carrier dispenser, so that the solid medicines can be easily taken out when necessary. Therefore, a large plastic bottle or a large plastic box is employed for the original container for many cases. And, a long columnar plastic container or an aluminum tube is used as the carrier dispenser.
  • the solid medicines are generally formed as disklike tablets and therefore are packed in compact within the carrier dispenser if they are piled up in a thickness direction.
  • the solid medicines are changed from the original container to the carrier dispenser generally in the following complicated procedure.
  • the medical products are wrapped in a package mostly by a PTP (Press Through Pack) method on the employment of a sealing film, for example, an aluminum foil, etc., to close the opening of package in air-tight.
