Definitions

  • the present invention relates to packaging, more particularly, but not exclusively, to packaging for pharmaceutical products.
  • a blister strip will usually be in the form of a sheet type material including a plurality of blister-like formations, with each blister being configured for receiving a single tablet or capsule.
  • a layer, typically of foil, will be provided over the back of the sheet material to act as a closure for the tablets or capsules in the blisters.
  • the associated blister is pushed so as to force the tablet/capsule out through the foil closure.
  • a medicinal course of tablets or capsules might typically comprise a number tablets or capsules requiring one or more blister strips, which will be provided in a box-type packaging.
  • packaging for pharmaceutical products comprising a box-type structure defining a first receptacle suitable for containing pharmaceutical products such as blister strips of tablets or the like, the packaging further including a second receptacle which can be stored in the first receptacle and which can be removed for use as a temporary receptacle for said pharmaceutical products.
  • the second receptacle is in the form of sleeve means for receiving a blister strip of tablets or the like.
  • the second receptacle is in the form of a wallet.
  • the first and second receptacles are formed from the same packaging blank, in which the second receptacle is preferably detachable from the first receptacle.
  • the invention is advantageous in that the primary receptacle can be used to store a course of medication in the form of tablets and capsules provided on blister strips, and the second receptacle can be used to store a day supply of said course, to be carried separately from the remainder of the course and the primary receptacle.
  • an article of packaging is in the form of abox, indicated generally at 10.
  • the box 10 serves as a convenient receptacle for pharmaceutical products and is particularly suited for storing and supplying tablets and capsules provided on blister strips.
  • the box 10 is formed from a single packaging blank, illustrated in Figure 2 and indicated generally at 100.
  • the blank 100 can be described as consisting of one cover panel 102, two primary panels 104A, 104B, two secondary panels 106A, 106B, two wallet panels 108A, 108B and four end panels 110.
  • the cover panel 102 includes two sets of stepped cut lines 112 provided to from part of the periphery of a closure flap portion indicated at 114.
  • Fold lines indicated at 116 are provided to define a pull tab 118 on the closure flap portion 114.
  • a cut line 120 between the fold lines 116 and the pull tab 118 serve to proscribe a closure tab 122 on the closure flap portion 112, as will be described in more detail below.
  • primary panel 104B includes cut lines indicated at 126, which define the outer periphery of a adhesive panel 128 adj acent wallet panel 108A, the purpose of which will be described in more detail below.
  • a cut line 130 is provided in primary panel 104B, for co-operative engagement with the closure tab 122 on the cover panel 102, as will be described below.
  • wallet panel 108B is then moved upwardly from its position in Figure 2, about the fold line between the two wallet panels 108, to a position over wallet panel 108A.
  • the two wallet panels 108 are raised about the fold line between the wallet panel 108A and primary panel 104B so that an outer region of wallet panel 108B is brought into contact with the adhesive on adhesive panel 128.
  • the packaging blank 100 eventual ly takes on the shape of the box 10 shown in Figure 1, with the outer surface of primary panel 104A forming the underside of the box 10 as viewed in Fi gure 1.
  • product to be supplied in the packaging 10 is introduced, for example a plurality of co-operatively sized blister strips.
  • Adhesive is then applied to the distal corner regions of the cover panel 102, indicated at 132 in Figure 2 and the cover panel 102 can be brought into contact with the primary panel 104B so as to form the closed packaging box 10 shown in Figure 1.
  • the tab 118 on the closure flap 114 is pulled upwardly as viewed i n Figure 1. This causes the tab 118 to move relative to the remainder of the closure flap 114, about fold lines 116, until the connection between the stepped cut lines 112 and coverpanel 102 is broken and the closure flap portion 114 is torn free from the cover panel 102 to the position shown in Figure 3. As can be seen, the corner portions 132 of the cover panel 102 are retained on the upper primary panel 104B, with the cut line 130 exposed between the corner portions 132.
  • the outer surface ofthe adhesive panel 128 is visible when the cover flap portion 114is first opened.
  • the wallet 140 is in the form of sleeve having a pair ofends 142, indicated clearly in Figure 5.
  • the sleeve is open at both ends and is ideally suited for receiving a thin blister strip of medication.
  • the advantage of the wallet 140 is that a small number of capsules of tablets can be stored conveniently and separately from the remainder of a course of medication in the primary receptacle.
  • a 28 day course of medication might be in the form of four individual blister strips of medication, each strip holding a week's requirement of the medication.
  • one ofthe strips can be removed from the primary receptacle 134 and stored for convenience in the wallet 140, to be carried by the user, while the box 10 is stored at a safe location.
  • the wallet and primary box are formed from the same packaging blank, not least for ease of manufacture.
  • the wallet 140 can be stored in the box 10, when required. To close the box 10 from the positions shown in Figures 3 to 5, the closure flap portion 114 is folded back downwards towards the upper primary panel 104B. The closure tab 122 can then be engaged in the cut line 130 on the upper primary panel 104B to retain the box in a closed condition, until access to the box is again required.
