Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for inhibiting the removal of an article from a blister package-type container and, more particularly, to a child-resistant device for inhibiting removal of an article from a blister package, in which the device's ability to inhibit removal can be deactivated.
  • the present invention comprises an improvement for a device that inhibits removal of an article from a blister-type container in order to protect a child from the package contents, but which has means to bypass the child-resistant feature.
  • a lock is provided which locks open access to remove articles which are contained in the blister package.
  • a locking apparatus for a device housing a container that contains articles.
  • the inhibiting device includes a layer movable between two positions with respect to at least a portion of the container.
  • the layer is configured to at least partially inhibit removal of articles from the container when in one position and to permit removal of articles when in the other position.
  • the layer serves as a blocking element to interfere with the easy removal of the articles from the container.
  • the locking apparatus also has a lock that can be operated to lock the layer in the latter position, where removal of the articles from the container is permitted, and to prevent movement of the layer to the other position, where removal of the articles is inhibited.
  • the container may be a blister container, such as is well-known in the art and is specifically described in the above-mentioned Tannenbaum patents, but one of skill in the art will recognize that the device described above may include other types of containers.
  • the container (if it is a blister container) includes a first generally flat sheet having at least one cavity or blister formed therein for accommodating an article.
  • the container also comprises a puncturable and generally flat second sheet having a first side that faces one side of the first sheet. The article can be removed from the container by applying pressure to the exterior surface of the blister to force the article against and through the second sheet.
  • the device comprises a layer moveable with respect to the container between a first position and a second position.
  • the layer is between the first and second sheets, and has at least one opening that is substantially aligned with the blister when the housing is in the first position, and that is of such a size as will permit passage of the article therethrough.
  • the device also includes biasing means, arranged to bias the layer into the second position, where the opening in the layer is no longer aligned with the blister, and thus inhibits removal of the article from the container.
  • the layer is arranged so that it can be moved against the bias of the biasing means into the first position, bringing the blister substantially into alignment with the layer opening to permit removal of the article as mentioned above.
  • the device also includes retaining means, operable when the layer is in the first position, for retaining the layer in the first position.
  • the device can include a housing surrounding at least a portion of the container and in communication with the biasing means.
  • FIG. 1 is a front view of a device, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, in a position in which removal of an article from the container is inhibited;
  • FIG. 2 is a rear view of the device of FIG. 1 ;
  • FIG. 3 is a front view of the device of FIG. 1 , wherein the container is in a position that permits removal of an article from the container;
  • FIG. 4 is a rear view of the device of FIG. 1 , with the container in a position that permits removal of an article from the container;
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a portion of the device of FIG. 1 , in which the container is in a position that permits removal of an article from the container;
  • FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the device taken along the dotted line in FIG. 5 ;
  • FIG. 7 is a plan view of a component of the embodiment of FIG. 1 ;
  • FIG. 8 is a detailed view of a portion of the component shown in FIG. 7 .
  • FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view of the device taken along line 1--1 of FIG. 1 , but with the device in a position that permits removal of an article from the container;
  • FIG. 10 is a plan view of a variation of the component of FIG. 7 .
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show a device 10, which can be a package for a container 14, such as a blister-type container used in pharmaceutical packaging.
  • the device 10 may include a housing 34 that at least partially surrounds the container 14.
  • the device 10 is provided with a hole or window 36 into which a user can insert a finger from either the front or the back of the housing 34.
  • the hole 36 may assist the user in handling the package during use, but is provided for a particular purpose, as described below.
  • the housing 34 also includes openings visible from the front through which portions of the container 14 protrude. These protruding portions are constructed as blisters 22 in a first sheet 16 (more readily seen in FIG. 9 ) that is made of a flexible material, such as included in those containers described in the Tannenbaum patents mentioned above and as described below.
  • FIG. 2 shows the back of the device 10 shown in FIG. 1 .
  • the housing 34 also includes openings 60 which are aligned with the corresponding openings on the front of the housing 34 and the blisters 22, shown in FIG. 1 .
  • the second sheet 24 may be a layer of foil, such as aluminum foil, sealed to the first sheet to seal the articles 12 in the blisters 22.
  • a layer 32 is provided in the device 10, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , to inhibit removal of articles 12.
  • Layer 32 is in part a sheet of a material that, unlike the foil sheet 24, cannot easily be punctured even if a person presses quite hard on a blister.
  • the layer 32 is provided with holes 48 which, in this embodiment, are of the same shape and size as the openings 60 in the back of the housing, and which are arranged the same as the latter openings, other than the openings 60 in the left-most column.
  • Layer 32 is movable between two positions. In a first position (shown in FIGS.
  • the holes 48 are aligned with the openings 60 in the housing, except as mentioned those farthest to the left.
  • the layer 32 is made short enough that in this position, its left edge is to the right of that column of openings 60, which thus are also unblocked. With the layer 32 in this position, the user can easily press an article through the puncturable material of sheet 24 and through the opening 60.
  • the holes 48 are not aligned with the openings 60 in the housing 34, and thus block any attempt the user may make to press an article from a blister 22 out of the package.
  • the layer 32 is of course made long enough to block all the openings 60, even though it does not extend to the left-most column thereof when in the open position.
  • the layer is provided with a trigger 11.
  • the trigger 11 extends partway into the opening of the window 36.
  • a user can move the layer 32 into the position shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 by inserting a finger into the window 36 and sliding the layer 32 to the right (as shown in FIGS. 1-4 ).
  • the layer 32 is biased into the second position (that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 ).
  • the user might simply keep his or her finger in the window 36 to hold the layer 32 in the right-ward position shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 , keeping the holes 48 in the layer 32 aligned with the openings 60 in the housing and permitting the user to extract an article by pushing on the blister 22 housing it. Removing the finger then permits the layer 32 to return to the position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , in which the layer blocks removal of articles from the container.
  • the preferred embodiment is provided with a tab 42 on the layer 32 so as to be revealed extending into the window 36 from the left when the trigger 11 is pressed to the right.
  • the tab 42 is coplanar with the layer 32. In order to retain the trigger 11 and the layer 32 in the first (open) position the user can bend or fold the tab 42 out of the plane of the layer 32 and into the window 36, as is shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 .
  • the tab 42 is able to move in a hinged manner relative to the layer 32, the axis 52 of the hinged movement lying in the plane of layer 32, along the dotted line in FIG. 5 .
  • the tab 42 is provided with a portion 54 that is located at the hinging of the tab 42 to the layer 32.
  • Portion 54 is shaped so that when the tab 42 is bent or folded into the window 36, portion 54 is thereby also moved out of the plane of layer 32, but extending away from the hinge position in a direction opposite to that of the main portion 50 of the tab 42.
  • the portion 54 is long enough to engage an edge of the window 36 so that some portion of the package housing is held between the portion 54 and the layer 32, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 .
  • the disabling tab 50 can be deflected with respect to the plane of the container 14 and the housing 34 into or out of the openings 36 and 38 around the axis 52, which will deflect the disabling tab 54, also, away from the housing 34 and the container 14.
  • the retaining tab 54 can engage either an edge 62 of the window 36 or an edge 64 of the container 14, or both.
  • the portions 50 and 54 may be termed a disabling tab and a retaining tab, respectively.
  • the disabling tab 50 and the retaining tab 54 are formed of a material that permits them to be flexed about the axis 52.
  • FIG. 7 shows layer 32 removed from the rest of the child-resistant device and container.
  • the layer 32 is integral with the trigger 11, which in fact is simply the right-hand edge 56 of window 38 in layer 32.
  • the layer 32 is movable in the directions parallel to the arrow in this Figure to bring the layer 32 into the first (open) position and the second (closed) position described above.
  • the layer 32 is made of a material that has a fair degree of resilience, and is formed with portions 44 at the right-hand end and a portion 46 at the left-hand end that serve to bias the layer into the closed position.
  • the layer 32, including resilient portions 44 and 46 is shaped such that when the resilient portions are in their relaxation positions (shown in FIG. 7 ), the layer is in the second (closed) position.
  • the user moves the layer 32 to the right (toward the first position), the resilient portions 46 at the left edge of the layer 32 is extended, and the two springs formed by the resilient portions 44 in communication with the right edge of the layer 32 are compressed.
  • the layer 32 will remain in the first (open) position only as long as the user holds it in that position, or uses the locking effect of tab 42 as described above. If the layer 32 is released, such as, for example, by the user removing his or her finger from the window 36 of the housing and the finger hole 38 of the layer 32, the compressed resilient portions 44 and 46 relax and move the layer 32 back into the second (closed) position, preventing further removal of the articles 12 from the container 14.
  • the lock (formed of the tab 42) is itself formed as a part of layer 32, and in fact, those elements as well as the resilient portions 44 and 46, and the surrounding frame or base are all formed from a single piece of material, for example by stamping.
  • the layer 32, tab 42, and biasing means 44, 46 are preferably made from a flexible plastic material, such as polyvinyl chloride or polypropylene.
  • the layer 32 and biasing means 44, 46 can be integrally formed, from the same or different materials, or can be separate elements. However, one of skill in the art will appreciate that those components may also be formed from other suitable materials, all of which are within the scope of the present invention.
  • the layer 32 is in this embodiment configured to slide relative to container 14, it is within the broad scope of the invention to make the layer 32 translationally or rotationally movable with respect to the container 14.
  • the article 12 is typically a pill, tablet, capsule, or a syringe or the like, although one of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the article 12 may be any article or product that it is convenient to package in a blister-type package or container 14.
  • the article 12 need not be restricted to pharmaceutical articles, but may be any article, such as a screw, nut, bolt, razor blade, etc.
  • the blister-type container 14 comprises a conventional blister package, best shown by the cross-sectional view in FIG. 9 , which is a cross-sectional view of the device along line 1--1 in FIG. 1 .
  • the blister-type container 14 may take any shape or form in accordance with the spirit and scope of the present invention.
  • the container may have a generally circular or disc shape, and the layer that serves as a blocking element, like layer 32 in the preferred embodiment, may be arranged to slide rotationally rather than laterally, using torsion provided in any convenient way as a biasing force.
  • the container 14 comprises a first generally flat sheet 16.
  • the first sheet 16 is formed from a generally compressible, formable material which would allow pressure applied to the first sheet 16 to be transmitted to the article 12 to remove the article 12 from the container 14.
  • the first sheet 16 is preferably formed from a formable polymeric material, such as one selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl chloride, styrene, polypropylene, barrex, aclar, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), and amorphous polyethylene terephthalate APET including laminations or co-extrusions thereof in accordance with the chemical and/or mechanical characteristics of the article 12 and which may be formed to accommodate the size and shape of the article 12.
  • a formable polymeric material such as one selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl chloride, styrene, polypropylene, barrex, aclar, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), and amorphous polyethylene terephthalate APET including laminations or co-extrusions thereof in accordance with the chemical and/or mechanical characteristics of the article 12 and which may be formed to accommodate the size and shape
  • the first sheet 16 has a first side 18 and a second side 20.
  • the first sheet 16 also has at least one and typically several generally outwardly extending blisters 22 for accommodating the articles 12.
  • the interior dimensions of the blisters 22 preferably conform to the size and shape of the article 12.
  • One of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the first sheet 16 need not be flat, and may have blisters 22 of any size and shape in keeping with the spirit and scope of the present invention.
  • the container 14 includes a rupturable or puncturable generally flat second sheet 24.
  • the second sheet 24 is preferably generally rupturable by the article 12 in the area of the blister 22 when force is applied to a blister 22 of the first sheet 16 and thereby to the article 12.
  • the force may be generated by the pressure of one or more fingers of an individual, for example.
  • the second sheet 24 is a metallic foil, such as aluminum foil.
  • any other rupturable or puncturable material such as a plastic material of the type described above in connection with the first sheet 16 or a paper material, may be used for the second sheet 24.
  • the second sheet 24 need not be generally flat, but may have ridges or indentations, etc.
  • the second sheet 24 generally conforms in size to the first sheet 16, but one of ordinary skill in the art would understand that the second sheet 24 may be larger or smaller than the first sheet 16, as desired.
  • the second sheet 24 has a first side 26 and a second side 28.
  • the first side 26 of the second sheet 24 sealingly engages a portion 30 of the first side 18 of the first sheet 16.
  • the portion 30 generally does not include the area of the blisters 22.
  • the first side 26 of the second sheet 24 is heat sealed or adhesively engaged to the portion 30 of the first sheet 16.
  • the adhesive or heat seal coating is not shown.
  • the first side 26 of the second sheet 24 may be engaged with the portion 30 of the first sheet 16 by some other means.
  • the blister package or container 14 as described above is a typical blister package well known to those skilled in the art.
  • An article 12 may be removed from the container 14 by applying pressure to an outside surface 23 of a blister 22 to force the article 12 to rupture or puncture the second sheet 24.
  • the pressure necessary to puncture the second sheet 24 with the article 12 is, among other criteria, a function of the shape and compressibility of the article 12, as well as the compressibility, thickness and type of material from which the first sheet 16 and second sheet 24 are formed.
  • the pressure is generally that which is capable of being generated by one or more fingers of an individual.
  • FIG. 10 shows a variant structure for the layer 32.
  • one resilient portion portion 46
  • a more compact structure is obtained.
  • the finger hole 38 may be replaced with a gripping surface (not shown) or gripping tab exposed through the window 36 so that the exposed portion 40 of the layer 32 positioned within in the window 36 can be manipulated or moved with at least one finger positioned at least within the interior 68 of the housing 34 and within the window 36.
