Definitions

  • the container closure consists of a film, preferably an aluminum foil, which is releasably and fluid-tightly connected to the edge flange. Regularly, a tab is provided which protrudes beyond the edge flange and which allows removal of the film from the container opening.
  • blister packs which are also referred to as blister packs, for receiving medicines or dietary supplements in the form of tablets, pills or dragees.
  • the upper foil is predominantly a plastic foil and the lower foil is an aluminum foil.
  • the drug or dietary supplement When using the drug or dietary supplement, it is forced through the bottom film by pressure on the bulge and taken with a liquid or by drowning a liquid.
  • a disadvantage of this known blister pack is that its sterility is no longer guaranteed by the contact of the drug with the ambient air or the touch of the hands.
  • Another disadvantage is that in some situations, for example when traveling is not always a liquid for the intake of the drug is available or otherwise must be carried separately. Many people, but especially the elderly, are reluctant to take medicines or dietary supplements in solid form, so that a liquid dosage form is generally preferred.
  • FR 1 591 549 A and US 4,836,370 each have closures known for liquid containers in which a closure for a liquid container forms a cap, attachable in the dietary supplements or the like are.
  • a closure for a liquid container forms a cap, attachable in the dietary supplements or the like are.
  • Object of the present invention is therefore a closure to create for liquid containers, with a, formed on the opening of the liquid container collar-shaped Edge flange detachable, but connected liquid-tight is one and the one germ-free and one against the outside Environment as well as against the container interior tightly closed Storage of a drug or a Dietary supplement until its use together with a liquid and also the preparation of a dispersion or suspension of the drug or dietary supplement and the liquid in the container opening the liquid container allows.
  • this object is achieved in that the Upper and lower film glued together at their peripheral edge or welded, the lower film at its peripheral edge with a collar-shaped edge flange of the liquid container is detachably connected and that at the peripheral edge the upper foil and at the peripheral edge of the lower foil a over the edge flange of the liquid container protruding Abziehlasche is formed.
  • the upper and the lower Foil glued together only at its peripheral edge or welded.
  • the plane is Surface of the upper foil and the covering surface of this bottom sheet glued or welded together flat.
  • the upper foil has a lower foil more .... Tear resistance on.
  • the tensile strength difference is the two films according to the invention designed so that the lower Foil as a result of a bulge in the upper foil and about this on the drug or dietary supplement applied pressure is such a tearable that the drug or dietary supplement through the lower foil through can be pressed into the interior of the liquid container and the top sheet is unbreakable by the applied pressure is.
  • the upper and lower film may be a plastic film of polymers, copolymers or polymer blends. Furthermore, the upper film may be thermoplastically deformable. However, the upper film may also be selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene, a polyethylene copolymer, a polyethylene terephthalate, a polypropylene, a polypropylene copolymer and mixtures thereof.
  • the lower film may comprise an aluminum foil, a single or double coated aluminum foil or a brittle polymer foil.
  • the closure also has an over the collar-shaped edge flange protruding Abziehlasche which is formed at the peripheral edge of the upper film or at the peripheral edge of the upper and lower film.
  • a significant advantage of the invention is that the drug or dietary supplement and the liquid required for ingestion is contained in a single package, so that the separate entrainment or procurement of revenue liquid is eliminated.
  • the germ-free and liquid-tight arrangement of the drug or dietary supplement within the container closure a separate storage of both components is achieved until use, whereby a longer shelf life is achievable.
  • the pushing of the drug or the food supplement through the lower film into the interior of the liquid container with a closed container advantageously allows the germ-free production of a dispersion or suspension, which is generally preferred as a liquid dosage form by consumers.
  • a precise dosage of drug or dietary supplement and the liquid in the container without much work is possible.
  • the invention consists Closure of two superposed foils 2 and 4, between which a cavity for receiving a drug or dietary supplement 3 is formed.
  • This Cavity is formed by a centrally arranged, convex, cup-shaped Bulge 8 in the upper slide 2 and through the the level side of the upper film 2 covering lower film 4 is formed.
  • the thus formed closure is with a, at the Opening of the liquid container 6 integrally formed collar-shaped Edge flange 7 connected liquid-tight.
  • the flat surface of the upper film 2 and the surface covering this the lower film 4 at least in part by gluing or welding together.
  • the upper and lower Foil 2 and 4 glued together only at their peripheral edge or welded.
  • This embodiment is given priority to Liquid container with a small width of the container opening used.
  • the flat surface the upper sheet 2 and the covering surface of the lower Foil 4 glued together flat or welded.
  • the closure also has a protruding over the edge flange 7 Abziehlasche 5, which at the peripheral edge of the upper Foil 2 and formed on the peripheral edge of the lower film 4 is.
  • This embodiment allows the liquid container 6 while taking the previously prepared dispersion or suspension of the drug or dietary supplement 3 and the liquid 1, for example water, essentially keep it closed, which is hygienic Reasons is recommended.
  • the liquid container 6 located dispersion or suspension for example be absorbed by a drinking straw, the in the crack is introduced in the lower film 4.
  • both foils together deducted from the edge flange 7 and thus the liquid container 6 are fully opened.
  • the upper and the lower film 2 and 4 with each other welded or unsolvable glued and the lower Foil 4 releasably bonded to the edge flange 7.
  • the upper film 2 has a greater tensile strength than the lower film 4.
  • the tensile strength difference of the two films 2 and 4 is designed so that the lower film 4 not only tears as a result of a pressure exerted on the bulge 8 in the upper film 2 and on the drug or dietary supplement 3 pressure, but so tears that the Drug or dietary supplement 3 can be pushed through the lower film 4 into the interior of the liquid container 6. Due to the applied pressure, the bulge 8 is merely bent or buckled, wherein the upper foil 2 does not rupture.
  • the tear strength of the films 2 and 4 is to be interpreted depending on the film material used, on the clear width of the container opening and on the film thickness. The thickness of the films is always greater than 0.015 mm.
  • the films 2 and 4 consist of a food safe material, for example, according to the US regulation FDA Regulations 21 CFR, 177.1520 or according to the European Directive 90/128 / EEC, Appendix 2, Section A.
  • the upper and the lower film 2 and 4 is a plastic film of polymers, copolymers or polymer blends, such as PE, LDPE, MDPE, HDPE, LLDPE, PET and PP.
  • the upper film 2 is thermoplastically deformable.
  • the upper film 2 is selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene, a polyethylene copolymer, a polyethylene terephthalate, a polypropylene, a polypropylene copolymer and mixtures thereof.
  • the lower film 4 is an aluminum foil, a single or double coated aluminum foil or a brittle polymer foil.
  • the drug or dietary supplement 3 is shown in tablet form.
  • the tablet form is very advantageous for pushing through the lower foil 4.
  • the drug or dietary supplement 3 may also be present in powdered or liquid form.
  • the clear width of the container opening is 20 mm and the width of the edge flange 3.5 mm.
  • the upper film 2 is made of polyethylene with a thickness of 0.15 mm and the lower film 4 made of aluminum with a thickness of 0.075 mm.
  • the upper and lower film 2 and 4 is welded or sealed together at its peripheral edge and the lower film 4 with the edge flange 7 releasably bonded.
  • the pull tab 5 is formed on the peripheral edge of the upper and lower foils 2 and 4.
  • the inside width is the container opening 70 mm and the width of the edge flange 6 mm.
  • the upper film 2 is a polypropylene film having a Thickness of 0.2 mm and the lower film 4 a plastic coated on both sides Aluminum foil with a thickness of 0.1 mm.
  • the flat surface of the upper film 2 and this covering Surface of the lower film 4 is flat with each other solvable bonded.
