Description

Spender für feste Arzneimittel Solid medicine dispenser
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Spender für feste Arzneimittel, insbesondere Tabletten, Filmtabletten, Dragees und Kapseln.The invention relates to a dispenser for solid pharmaceuticals, in particular tablets, film-coated tablets, coated tablets and capsules.
Feste Arzneimittel, wie Tabletten, Filmtabletten, Dragees, Kapseln, Zäpfchen, werden bisher in der Regel in Flaschen, Durchdrückpackungen, Glas- oder Kunststoffröhrchen oder Dosen verpackt.Solid medicines, such as tablets, film-coated tablets, coated tablets, capsules, suppositories, have hitherto generally been packaged in bottles, blister packs, glass or plastic tubes or cans.
Die Erfindung löst nun die Aufgabe, eine einfache, gut handhabbare, materialsparend gestaltete Verpackung in einem günstigen Format vorzuschlagen.The invention now solves the problem of proposing a simple, easy-to-use, material-saving packaging in an inexpensive format.
Der neue Spender besteht aus einem flachen Behälter, bei dem an einer Schmalseite eine Durchlaßöfl-hung vorgesehen ist, die mit einer durch einen Klappverschluß verschließbaren Entnahmemulde in Verbindung steht.The new dispenser consists of a flat container in which a passage opening is provided on a narrow side, which is connected to a removal trough which can be closed by means of a hinged closure.
Einige Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sowie zweckmäßige Abwandlungen und Details sind in den Figuren 1 bis 7 dargestellt.Some embodiments of the invention as well as expedient modifications and details are shown in FIGS. 1 to 7.
Fig. 1 zeigt einen Blick auf einen erfindungsgemäßen Spender in aufgeklapptem Zustand. In einer Platte 1 befindet sich eine flache Wanne 2, die an einer Seite in eine Entnahmemulde 3 übergeht. An die Platte 1 schließt sich eine Falz 4 an, die das Umklappen des Verschlußteils 5 erleichtert. Das Verschlußteil 5 weist eine Vorwölbung 6 auf, die so geformt ist, daß sie beim Umklappen in die Entnahmemulde 3 einrastet und diese weitgehend ausfüllt. Auf die Platte 1 ist eine ebene Deckplatte aufgebracht, welche die Platte 1 völlig bedeckt, außer an der Stelle, wo sich die Entnahmemulde 3 (in die hier eine Tablette 3 a eingezeichnet ist) befindet. Über der Entnahmemulde 3 hat die Deckplatte eine Ausparung; sie ermöglicht den. Durchtritt der Vorwölbung 6 unter leichtem Druck, wobei dann das Verschlußteil 5 auf der Deckplatte durch Klemmverbindung fixiert wird. Fig. la bietet die Seitenansicht des Spenders nach Fig. 1, wobei auch die über das Verschlußteil 5 gezogene Deckplatte 8 zu erkennen ist.Fig. 1 shows a view of a dispenser according to the invention in the opened state. In a plate 1 there is a flat trough 2 which merges into a removal trough 3 on one side. A fold 4 adjoins the plate 1, which facilitates the folding over of the closure part 5. The closure part 5 has a protrusion 6 which is shaped such that it snaps into the removal trough 3 when it is folded down and largely fills it. On the plate 1, a flat cover plate is applied, which completely covers the plate 1, except at the point where the removal trough 3 (in which a tablet 3a is shown) is located. Over the trough 3, the cover plate has a recess; it enables that. Passing through the bulge 6 under slight pressure, the closure part 5 then being fixed on the cover plate by a clamp connection. Fig. La offers the side view of the dispenser of FIG. 1, wherein the cover plate 8 pulled over the closure part 5 can be seen.
Die Höhe der Wanne 2 richtet sich nach der Art und der Menge des Füllguts. In der Regel reicht eine Höhe, die geringfügig größer ist als die Dicke der einzelnen Arzneimitteleinheiten, z. B. Tabletten. Sollen mehrere Schichten von Arzneimitteleinheiten übereinander Platz finden, wird eine entsprechend höhere Wanne verwendet.The height of the tub 2 depends on the type and the amount of the filling material. As a rule, a height that is slightly larger than the thickness of the individual pharmaceutical units, e.g. B. tablets. If several layers of drug units are to be placed on top of one another, a correspondingly higher tub is used.
Fig. 2 bietet den Blick von oben auf den geschlossenen Spender, wobei das Verschlußteil 5 dicht auf der Deckplatte aufliegt und die Vorwölbung 6 in den Ausschnitt der Deckplatte und die Entnahmemulde 3 eingedrungen ist.Fig. 2 offers a view from above of the closed dispenser, the closure part 5 rests tightly on the cover plate and the protrusion 6 has penetrated into the cutout of the cover plate and the removal trough 3.
Fig. 3 zeigt den Spender mit Blick auf die längere Schmalseite. Unter der Platte 1 ist die flache Wanne 2 mit der anschließenden Entnahmemulde 3 zu erkennen. Das Verschlußteil 5 ist an der Falz 4 umgeklappt und liegt dicht auf der Deckplatte 8 auf. Neben dem umgeklappten Verschlußteil 5 ist auf der Deckplatte 8 Platz für die Gebrauchsinformation.Zum Öffnen des Spenders wird das Verschlußteil 5 an der der Falz 4 gegenüberliegenden Seite angehoben. Durch Neigen des Spenders, so daß die Entnahmemulde tiefer zu liegen kommt, oder durch leichtes Schütteln wird jeweils ein Stück des Arzneimittels in die Entnahmemulde 3 befördert und kann dann entnommen werden. Danach wird der Spender wieder geschlossen.Fig. 3 shows the dispenser with a view of the longer narrow side. Under the plate 1, the flat trough 2 with the subsequent removal trough 3 can be seen. The closure part 5 is folded over on the fold 4 and lies tightly on the cover plate 8. In addition to the folded closure part 5, there is space on the cover plate 8 for the instructions for use. To open the dispenser, the closure part 5 is raised on the side opposite the fold 4. By tilting the dispenser so that the dispensing trough comes to lie lower, or by lightly shaking, a piece of the medicament is conveyed into the dispensing trough 3 and can then be removed. The donor is then closed again.
In dem Spender nach Fig. 4 ist das Verschlußteil 5 mit einer Schmalseite an der Platte 1 befestigt. Diese weist eine zusätzliche Vertiefung 9 auf; sie dient dazu, z.B. eine halbe Tablette aufzubewahren. Das kann erwünscht sein, wenn der Packungsinhalt aus teilbaren Tabletten besteht, von denen der Patient jeweils nur eine Hälfte benötigt. Eine Aussparung 10 in der Platte 1 und der Deckplatte 8 erleichtert das Aufklappen des Verschlußteils 5.4, the closure part 5 is fastened to the plate 1 with a narrow side. This has an additional recess 9; it serves e.g. keep half a tablet. This may be desirable if the package contains divisible tablets, of which the patient only needs half. A recess 10 in the plate 1 and the cover plate 8 makes it easier to open the closure part 5.
Fig. 5 zeigt denselben Spender verschlossen. Neben dem Verschlußteil 5 ist die Gebrauchsinformation 11 auf der Deckplatte 8 fixiert.Fig. 5 shows the same dispenser closed. In addition to the closure part 5, the instructions for use 11 are fixed on the cover plate 8.
In den Figuren 6 und 7 ist ein Spender ähnlich dem in Fig. 4 und Fig. 5 in der Ansicht schräg von oben dargestellt. Spender gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung werden zweckmäßig nach bekannten Methoden der Kunststoffverarbeitung hergestellt. Zweckmäßig erhalten die Spender einen an sich bekannten Originalitätsverschluß, damit ohne weiteres erkennbar ist, ob der Spender schoneinmal geöföiet wurde. Der Originalitätsverschluß kann z. B. durch eine über das Entnahmeteil geschweißte, abziehbare Deckfolie gebildet werden, wobei die Deckfolie so in die Entnahmemulde (3) hineinreicht, daß sie das Verschließen des Spenders durch Umklappen des Verschlußteils (5) nicht verhindert. Die Deckfolie kann über die gesamte Deckplatte reichen, wobei dann ein durch eine Perforation abgeteilter Streifen vor Gebrauch entfernt wird, der zweckmäßig die Länge und Breite des Verschlußteils (5) hat. FIGS. 6 and 7 show a dispenser similar to that in FIGS. 4 and 5 viewed obliquely from above. Dispensers according to the present invention are expediently produced using known methods of plastics processing. The donors are expediently given a tamper-evident seal which is known per se, so that it can be readily recognized whether the donor has ever been opened. The tamper-evident seal can e.g. B. be formed by a welded over the removal part, peelable cover sheet, the cover sheet so far into the removal trough (3) that it does not prevent the closure of the dispenser by folding the closure part (5). The cover film can extend over the entire cover plate, a strip separated by a perforation being removed before use and having the length and width of the closure part (5).
