Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lid and / or closure film for a packaging, in particular a blister pack, according to the preamble of the main claim. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for determining the opening state of a sealed by means of a lid and / or closure film packaging and the use of a lid and / or closure film.
  • Such a generic cover and / or closure film is generally known from the prior art, for example in the form of a medication blister packaging, in which the closure film carries an electrical conductor, which is associated with a Greiner hamper that during the (manual) access on the drug in the Artguthunt the electrically conductive path is destroyed and can be determined by electronic evaluation of the conduction behavior of the conductor track, whether the Brownauershaw has been opened.
  • the EP 0 972 507 A1 discloses such a known lid or closure film, wherein here a plurality of Grein screeningn and according to a more complex interconnect structure is described, which is evaluated electronically with respect to a total ohmic resistance; According to this prior art disclosure, the local rupture results in an interruption of a respective (resistive) trace with a corresponding effect on the (electronically evaluated) total resistance of the trace assembly.
  • the film has, at least in sections, a capacitively active layer structure whose electrical capacitance (as electrical conductivity property in the sense of the present invention) is changed by the separation or tearing during (manual) access to a respective filling chamber.
  • a capacitively active layer structure whose electrical capacitance (as electrical conductivity property in the sense of the present invention) is changed by the separation or tearing during (manual) access to a respective filling chamber.
  • the individual capacitors connected in parallel in accordance with the present invention are added to the respective filling material chambers, so that a clear and uniformly graduated total capacitance signal is present for an evaluation electronics evaluating the total capacitance according to the respective opening states (in principle also being considered by the present invention) shall apply if a capacitive layer occluding a plurality of product compartments can be locally or partially separated and to that extent a reduction in capacitance occurs by reducing the capacitively effective area, in accordance with the described parallel connection).
  • a respective Standguthunt associated capacitively effective portion directly for covering or closing the Medguthunt and evaluate its capacity change for opening condition detection, as well as a supply line to such a capacity for opening condition detection to separate or so that then the relevant capacitive section no longer contributes to the formation of the total capacity (through parallel connection). It is also advantageous in This case on or in the cover or closure film to provide only a simple wiring pattern, which electrically connects a plurality of capacitive portions associated with the respective Greguthuntn parallel (and thus added in terms of their total capacity).
  • the latter variant also offers the advantage that in process technology elegant, at the same time electrotechnically optimized way, for example by etching or the like.
  • chemical or electrochemical measures an effective surface enlargement of a (serving as the first electrode) metal layer is performed, a subsequent oxidation of this surface-magnified metal layer (eg as aluminum layer to alumina) the correspondingly large-area dielectric layer is generated and subsequent vapor deposition of the dielectric layer with conductive material provides the counter electrode ,
  • a surface-magnified metal layer eg as aluminum layer to alumina
  • subsequent vapor deposition of the dielectric layer with conductive material provides the counter electrode
  • the realization according to the invention of the electrical line characteristic as electrical capacitance also advantageously makes it possible for this capacitance (in particular in the case of an electrical capacity maximized by measures described above) to serve as a power supply for a peripheral electronics preferably also also or in the cover or closure film. whereby the capacitor can be supplied with suitable charge by suitable coupling (also wirelessly).
  • a peripheral electronics preferably also also or in the cover or closure film.
  • the capacitor can be supplied with suitable charge by suitable coupling (also wirelessly).
  • the possibility of providing the peripheral electronics with the evaluation electronics for example evaluating the opening state
  • the training, additional RFID or the like To realize high-frequency transmission technology directly by suitable conductor tracks of the cover or closure film brings the highest possible flexibility and applicability of the present invention for a variety of applications.
  • the Fig. 1 shows in plan view a first embodiment of the invention, wherein the lid film 10 shown is provided for closing a total of eight Golfguthuntn 12 in the manner of an otherwise known blister carrier unit.
  • the aluminum foil 22 thus forms a first, large-area electrode of the device as a counter electrode for eight the respective Golfguthuntn 12 associated second electrode sections 14 and is contacted via a first lead 16.
  • the respective second electrodes (electrode surfaces) 14 are as shown in FIG Fig.
  • the second supply line 18, the supply lines 20 and the electrode surfaces 14 are formed as conductive sections (eg realized by means of conductive ink or conductive polymer) on the lacquer coating the coated aluminum foil 22 acting as a dielectric.
  • each of the surfaces 14 is approximately 2 cm 2 in size, wherein the paint used for the production of the insulating interlayer on the conductor layer 22 (dielectric) is typically applied in a paint thickness of 2 microns and has a dielectric constant ⁇ r of 3 , This then leads to a capacitance C 14 in the order of about 27 nF, which, depending on the opening state of the Grecorehuntn (in the case of opening the Blisterverpackung the respective lead 20 would be separated) contributes to the two-pole 16, 18 adjacent parallel connection of all capacities or disconnected from it by the separation.
  • the paint used for the production of the insulating interlayer on the conductor layer 22 dielectric
  • ⁇ r dielectric constant
  • the opening detection unit formed by the units 12 to 22, which represents the two-terminal with respect to the terminals 16 and 18 and, as described, a total capacity formed from the addition of the individual capacitances C 14 in the described embodiment is evaluated by a chip provided as an integrated unit 24, which also has an RFID functionality and, depending on the applied total capacitance value between the terminals 16 and 18, the externally radiated via the RFID antenna 26 shown symbolically or evaluable signal modulated.
  • the realized in the embodiment shown by means of an integrated switching unit unit 24 is preferably also configured so that it can be supplied via the parallel connection of the capacitances C 14 with operating voltage.
  • a user now removes the contents contained in a respective chamber 12, eg tablets, by locally cutting or tearing open the cover film 10 in the area of the relevant chamber 12 in an otherwise known manner, with the result that the connecting line piece 20 is severed.
  • This is indicated by the symbolic switch unit in the diagram of the Fig. 4 , the connection to the capacitor in question electrically isolated (open), so that this capacitor no longer contributes to the total capacity. Accordingly, the total capacity is reduced by the contribution of the respective capacity, whereby, in the described example of the parallel connection of the capacities, this happens in the manner of a subtraction of the capacity value.
  • the thus reduced capacity is applied to the evaluation unit 24 by means of the connections 16, 18 and can be active or passive and in an otherwise known manner by means of RFID technology or to other, preferably wireless, paths an external communication partner for further processing.
  • the present invention is not limited to the embodiment shown, so in particular a (almost any) implementation with other capacity configurations possible, in particular a full-surface covering individual capacity, which then covers several filling chambers and, in each case upon removal, partially broken.
  • an evaluation on the film in the form of the evaluation unit 24 is not necessarily provided, but can be done in turn, each in a meaningful way, a two- or multi-pole contacting the interconnection of the individual capacities on, below or laterally of the film in any required manner.
