Description
L'invention concerne l'emballage de produits médicaux stérilisés conditionnés en sachets antibactériens, et elle s'applique notamment à des produits à usage unique et typiquement à des champs opératoires.The invention relates to the packaging of sterilized medical products packaged in antibacterial sachets, and it applies in particular to single-use products and typically to operative fields.
Les
L'emballage du
L'emballage du brevet américain comporte une enveloppe interne qui présente une fenêtre d'ouverture, et une enveloppe externe qui présente un rabat déchirable collé ou scellé autour de la fenêtre.The US patent package has an inner envelope that has an opening window, and an outer envelope that has a tear-off flap glued or sealed around the window.
La présente invention concerne l'emballage de produits déjà contenus dans des sachets ou blisters individuels maintenant la stérilité.The present invention relates to the packaging of products already contained in individual sachets or blisters maintaining sterility.
Pour être livrés aux hôpitaux, ces sachets ou blisters sont habituellement mis dans des cartons et pour les protéger des particules de carton et de la salissure éventuelle, on les dépose dans une enveloppe que l'on rabat ensuite, après quoi le carton est fermé. Cette enveloppe est constituée par un sachet en matière plastique ou par un carton en papier moins susceptible de relarguer des particules que le carton extérieur. Un emballage analogue est divulgué dans la
L'invention vise à éviter les inconvénients de ces enveloppes et à assurer une double protection antibactérienne.The invention aims to avoid the disadvantages of these envelopes and to ensure dual antibacterial protection.
Selon l'invention, l'emballage, conçu pour envelopper une pile de produits médicaux stérilisés conditionnés en sachets pelables ou blisters anti-bactériens empilables, est constitué par une feuille, imperméable aux bactéries mais perméable à un gaz de stérilisation, conformée autour de la pile pour constituer un emballage dont le volume correspond sensiblement à celui de la pile, ledit emballage présentant en vis à vis d'une face verticale de la pile un secteur de feuille partiellement prédécoupé pour pouvoir à la demande être partiellement découpé, soulevé afin de dégager une ouverture suffisante pour permettre l'extraction d'un sachet et remis en place pour refermer l'emballage, et ledit emballage étant muni d'une anse permettant de le soulever et de l'extraire d'un carton d'expédition.According to the invention, the packaging, designed to wrap a stack of sterilized medical products packaged in peelable sachets or anti-bacterial stackable blisters, is constituted by a sheet, impervious to bacteria but permeable to a sterilization gas, shaped around the stack to constitute a package whose volume substantially corresponds to that of the stack, said package having, opposite a vertical face of the stack, a sector of sheet partially precut to be able to be partly cut, lifted in order to release an opening sufficient to allow the extraction of a bag and put back in place to close the package, and said package being provided with a handle to lift it and extract it from a shipping carton.
L'emballage selon l'invention qui contient la pile de sachets ou de blisters peut être facilement sorti du carton d'expédition, permet le transport des sachets, peut être stocké, et peut servir de distributeur.The package according to the invention which contains the stack of sachets or blisters can be easily removed from the shipping carton, allows the transport of the bags, can be stored, and can serve as a dispenser.
Dans une réalisation préférée, le secteur prédécoupé présente deux bords verticaux et un bord horizontal inférieur prédécoupés et présente un bord horizontal supérieur apte à constituer une charnière permettant de rabattre le secteur comme un volet sur le dessus de l'emballage lorsque les bords prédécoupés ont été effectivement déchirés, de façon à dégager l'accès aux sachets contenus dans l'emballage.In a preferred embodiment, the pre-cut sector has two vertical edges and a lower horizontal edge pre-cut and has an upper horizontal edge capable of constituting a hinge for folding the sector as a flap on the top of the package when the precut edges have been effectively torn, so as to clear access to the bags contained in the package.
« Partiellement prédécoupé » signifie que le secteur est délimité partiellement par des bords préparés pour être découpés à la demande, par exemple par des lignes d'affaiblissement ou des moyens de découpe intégrés."Partially precut" means that the sector is partially delimited by edges prepared to be cut on demand, for example by lines of weakening or integrated cutting means.
De préférence, la conformation de la feuille est obtenue par mise en volume de la feuille autour de la pile déposée sur la feuille à plat, avec soudures longitudinale et latérale de la feuille.Preferably, the conformation of the sheet is obtained by placing the sheet in volume around the stack deposited on the sheet flat, with longitudinal and lateral welds of the sheet.
La perméabilité aux gaz de la feuille peut être obtenue par des perforations, lesquelles sont de préférence localisées, au moins pour une partie d'entre elles, dans le secteur de la feuille qui constituera le volet rabattable.The gas permeability of the sheet may be obtained by perforations, which are preferably localized, at least for a portion of them, in the sector of the sheet which will constitute the folding flap.
Dans des modes de réalisation préférés, l'emballage présente donc une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes :
- l'emballage est entouré par un ruban collé qui a été localement soulevé pour constituer l'anse ;
- l'emballage est constitué dans une feuille transparente ;
- la perméabilité de l'emballage au gaz de stérilisation est assurée par des perforations de la feuille dont les grosseurs sont insuffisantes pour permettre le passage des bactéries ;
- lesdites perforations sont situées au moins en partie dans ledit secteur de la feuille ;
- les bords déchirables de l'emballage sont constitués par des lignes de mini perforations.
- the wrapper is surrounded by a glued ribbon that has been locally raised to form the handle;
- the package is made of a transparent sheet;
- the permeability of the sterilization gas packaging is ensured by perforations of the sheet whose size is insufficient to allow the passage of bacteria;
- said perforations are located at least partly in said sector of the sheet;
- the tear-off edges of the package consist of lines of mini perforations.
L'invention concerne également un procédé pour emballer individuellement les piles de sachets.The invention also relates to a method for individually packing the stacks of sachets.
Selon l'invention, on réalise dans l'ordre le plus approprié, des opérations dans lesquelles :
- on approvisionne une nappe imperméable aux bactéries et au moins localement perméable à un gaz de stérilisation, qui présente une pluralité de secteurs échelonnés dans la direction de la longueur de la nappe ;

- on dépose une à une les piles à emballer de place en place sur le panneau de fond de la nappe et entre les panneaux latéraux, en sorte que chaque pile présente une face latérale de la pile en vis-à-vis de l'un desdits secteurs ;
- on replie à plat sur les dessus de chaque pile les panneaux latéraux, on les soude entre eux sur la pile, et on supprime les parties excédentaires des panneaux latéraux soudés ;
- on rapproche l'un de l'autre les panneaux latéraux entre chaque pile, on les soude l'un à l'autre pour terminer l'emballage de la pile et on sépare les emballages contenant les piles ;
- on munit chaque emballage d'une anse de préhension.
- supplying a bacterially impermeable and at least locally permeable layer to a sterilization gas having a plurality of sectors staggered in the direction of the length of the web;
- the U-shaped web is folded so that it has a horizontal bottom panel between two side panels, one of the side panels comprising said sectors;
- the cells to be packaged are placed one by one from place to place on the bottom panel of the sheet and between the side panels, so that each stack has a side face of the stack facing one of said sectors;
- the side panels are folded flat on the tops of each stack, they are welded to one another on the stack, and the excess parts of the welded side panels are removed;
- the side panels are brought closer to each other between each stack, they are welded to one another to complete the packing of the stack and the packages containing the piles are separated;
- each package is provided with a handle.
Dans des modes de réalisations préférés, le procédé de l'invention présente encore une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes :
- on constitue la poignée au moyen de rubans adhésifs qui forment une anse de préhension pour extraire l'emballage de la boite d'expédition ;
- on fait défiler la nappe dans le sens de la longueur de la nappe à un poste où l'on dépose les piles, successivement, sur la nappe ;
- on alimente ledit poste en piles au moyen d'un transporteur sans fin ;
- on fait défiler la nappe dans un conformateur en aval dudit poste pour la plier en U ;
- on utilise des rouleaux pour replier les panneaux latéraux de la nappe et pour pincer la nappe.
- the handle is formed by means of adhesive tapes which form a handle to extract the package from the shipping box;
- the sheet is scrolled in the direction of the length of the sheet to a position where the piles are deposited successively on the sheet;
- said station is supplied with batteries by means of an endless conveyor;
- the web is scrolled in a shaper downstream of said station to bend U;
- rollers are used to fold the side panels of the web and to pinch the web.
L'invention concerne également un dispositif pour emballer des piles de sachets.The invention also relates to a device for packaging stacks of bags.
Ce dispositif comprend des moyens pour faire défiler la nappe selon la longueur de la nappe, un transporteur sans fin pour alimenter en piles de sachets un poste de dépose successive des piles à proximité des secteurs de la nappe, un conformateur en aval dudit poste pour plier la nappe en U autour des piles, des rouleaux pour replier à plat sur chaque pile successive les côtés latéraux de la nappe, des moyens pour souder entre eux longitudinalement les côtés de la nappe qui sont repliés sur une pile, des moyens pour pincer les côtés latéraux de la nappe entre les piles, des moyens pour souder transversalement les côtés latéraux pincés entre les piles, des moyens pour fixer des rubans R sur les piles emballées afin de constituer des poignées et des moyens pour séparer les piles emballées.This device comprises means for scrolling the web according to the length of the web, an endless conveyor for supplying stacks of bags a station for successive removal of the batteries in the vicinity of the sectors of the web, a shaper downstream of said station to fold the U-shaped web around the stacks, rollers for folding flat on each successive stack the lateral sides of the sheet, means for welding longitudinally the sides of the sheet which are folded over a stack, means for gripping the sides side of the web between the stacks, means for transversely welding the lateral sides clamped between the stacks, means for securing R strips on the packaged stacks to form handles and means for separating the packaged stacks.

On voit sur la figure 1 un carton d'expédition (1) dont on extrait un emballage (2) conforme à l'invention.FIG. 1 shows a shipping carton (1) from which a package (2) according to the invention is extracted.
Cet emballage est constitué par une feuille en matière plastique transparente et de préférence recyclable qui a été pliée autour d'une pile de sachets (3) visibles au travers de la feuille, en constituant un volume parallélépipédique. Ce volume est entouré par des rubans adhésifs (4) qui sont soulevés localement sur la face de dessus de l'emballage pour constituer une poignée de préhension. Sur sa face frontale, l'emballage présente un secteur (S) rectangulaire délimité par deux lignes verticales parallèles (6) et (7) et une ligne horizontale inférieure (8) prédécoupées par des minis perforations permettant de déchirer ces lignes.This packaging consists of a transparent plastic sheet and preferably recyclable which has been folded around a stack of bags (3) visible through the sheet, forming a parallelepipedal volume. This volume is surrounded by adhesive tapes (4) which are raised locally on the top face of the package to form a gripping handle. On its front face, the package has a sector (S) rectangular delimited by two parallel vertical lines (6) and (7) and a lower horizontal line (8) pre-cut by mini perforations to tear these lines.
Un tel emballage (2) se prête à être soulevé par sa poignée, pour être extrait du carton (fig.1) et posé sur une surface (9) ou sur un autre emballage identique (2') déjà posé sur cette surface (fig.2).Such a package (2) is ready to be lifted by its handle, to be extracted from the carton (fig.1) and placed on a surface (9) or on another identical packaging (2 ') already placed on this surface (fig. .2).
Le secteur (S) est muni de perforations (non représentées sur les figures) qui laisse passer un gaz de stérilisation mais dont la grosseur est insuffisante pour laisser passer les bactéries.The sector (S) is provided with perforations (not shown in the figures) which allows a sterilization gas to pass but whose size is insufficient to let the bacteria pass.
Pour ouvrir l'emballage, l'opérateur saisit le secteur (S) par un coin, le lève pour déchirer les côtés prédécoupés (6), (7) et (8) (fig.3) et le rabat comme un volet sur le dessus de l'emballage, ce qui lui permet ensuite d'extraire un sachet par l'ouverture ainsi réalisée (fig4).To open the package, the operator grasps the sector (S) with a wedge, raises it to tear the pre-cut sides (6), (7) and (8) (fig.3) and the flap like a flap on the above the package, which then allows it to extract a bag by the opening thus made (fig4).
Pour refermer l'emballage en attente d'une nouvelle extraction, il lui suffit de laisser retomber le volet qui vient masquer l'ouverture (fig.5).To close the package waiting for a new extraction, it suffices to let fall the shutter that hides the opening (fig.5).
Après usage, l'emballage vide, facilement déformable est plus facile à évacuer sous un volume moindre qu'un emballage qui serait rigide.After use, the empty packaging, easily deformable is easier to evacuate less volume than a package that would be rigid.
Les figures 6 à 9 sont relatives à un dispositif conforme à l'invention pour emballer des piles de sachets.Figures 6 to 9 relate to a device according to the invention for packaging stacks of bags.
Ce dispositif comprend un premier transporteur sans fin à rouleaux (10) pour faire avancer une nappe d'emballage N dans une direction D, et un deuxième transporteur sans fin à rouleaux (11) pour faire avancer une à une dans la même direction les piles P de sachets à emballer jusqu'à un poste (12) où ces piles sont déposées tour à tour sur la nappe.This device comprises a first endless roller conveyor (10) for advancing a packing sheet N in a direction D, and a second endless conveyor with rollers (11) for advancing one by one in the same direction the piles. P bags to pack up to a station (12) where these piles are deposited in turn on the sheet.
A proximité de ce poste, le dispositif comprend un conformateur (13) dans lequel passe la nappe et qui force les cotés longitudinaux de la nappe à se relever jusqu'à ce que la nappe prenne une configuration en U (figure 7) avec deux côtés N1, N2 relevés et entre lesquels se trouve la pile incidente.In the vicinity of this station, the device comprises a shaper (13) through which the web passes and which forces the longitudinal sides of the web to rise until the web takes a U-shaped configuration (FIG. 7) with two sides N1, N2 raised and between which is the incident pile.
De place en place, la nappe présente des secteurs S prédécoupés sur trois côtés, comme précédemment expliqué. Les déplacements de la nappe et des piles sont réglés en sorte que chaque pile incidente déposée sur la nappe se trouve en vis-à-vis d'un volet lorsque la nappe est pliée en U.From place to place, the sheet has sections S precut on three sides, as previously explained. The movements of the ply and the stacks are adjusted so that each incident stack deposited on the ply is opposite a flap when the ply is folded in a U.
Des moyens (non représentés), par exemple des rouleaux, sont prévus pour rabattre à plat sur la pile les extrémités supérieures N10, N20 des cotés N1, N2 de la nappe, ainsi que des moyens pour les souder longitudinalement entre eux (soudure sl) et des moyens pour les couper au ras (figure 8).Means (not shown), for example rollers, are provided for folding flat on the stack the upper ends N10, N20 of the sides N1, N2 of the web, and means for welding longitudinally between them (weld sl) and means for cutting them flush (Figure 8).
Des moyens (non représentés), par exemple des rouleaux, sont prévus pour pincer les cotés N1, N2 de la nappe entre les piles successives P1, P2, P3 et (figure 9), ainsi que des moyens pour les souder transversalement (soudure st) dans ces intervalles, et des moyens pour les couper afin de séparer les piles emballées.Means (not shown), for example rollers, are provided for clamping the sides N1, N2 of the web between the successive stacks P1, P2, P3 and (FIG. 9), as well as means for welding them transversely (solder st) in these intervals, and means for cutting them to separate the packaged piles.
Des rubans R sont amenés et fixés par un dispositif approprié sur les emballages et découpés en même temps que la nappe, pour constituer des poignées.R strips are brought and fixed by a suitable device on the packages and cut at the same time as the sheet, to form handles.
L'invention n'est pas limitée à ces exemples de réalisation.The invention is not limited to these exemplary embodiments.
