Description

Sicherheitsetikett zum Sichern von in einer EinzelVerpackung gehaltenen Medikamenten Security label for securing medicines held in a single package
STAND DER TECHNIK STATE OF THE ART
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Sicherheitsetikett zum Sichern von in einer Einzelverpackung gehaltenen Medikamenten gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1. The present invention relates to a security label for securing medicaments held in a single package according to the preamble of claim 1.
Eine Blisterpackung besteht aus einer Anzahl von Trögen, in denen je ein Medikament mittels einer Abdeckfolie, meist aus Aluminium, verpackt ist. Diese Abdeckfolie lässt sich leicht Durchstoßen mit der Folge, dass das Medikament herausfällt, beziehungsweise entnommen werden kann. Hierdurch besteht die Gefahr, dass die die Medikamente abdeckende Alufolie auch versehentlich aufreißt und das Medikament beschmutzt wird, verloren geht oder in unbefugte Hände, zum Beispiel von kleinen Kindern, gelangt. Zur Sicherung einer solchen Blisterver- packung ist in der DE 10 2007 017 856 AI ein Etikett zur Anbringung an einer Blisterpackung vorgeschlagen worden, welches aus einem an der Blisterpackung anklebbaren Basisblatt und einem an dem Basisblatt angeklebten Deckblatt besteht. Dieses Deckblatt ist nur im Bereich seines Bundes dauerhaft am Basisblatt angeklebt, während der größte Teil des Deckblattes aufgrund einer Lackschicht auf der Oberseite des Basisblattes ablösbar und wieder verschließbar am Basisblatt klebt. Im Basisblatt sind im Bereich des Mittelpunktes der Medikamente Längs-oder Kreuzschlitze vorgesehen, durch die das einzelne Medikament zwecks Entnahme hindurchgedrückt werden kann. In einer anderen Ausführungsform gemäß DE 10 2007 017 856 AI ist in einem Bereich um das Medikament herum eine A blister pack consists of a number of troughs, in each of which a drug is packaged by means of a cover foil, usually made of aluminum. This cover film is easily pierced, with the result that the drug falls out or can be removed. As a result, there is a risk that the aluminum foil covering the medication accidentally tears open and the drug is soiled, lost or gets into unauthorized hands, for example, of young children. To secure such a blister pack, a label for attachment to a blister pack has been proposed in DE 10 2007 017 856 A1, which consists of a base sheet which can be adhered to the blister pack and a cover sheet which is glued to the base sheet. This cover sheet is permanently adhered to the base sheet only in the area of its collar, while the largest part of the cover sheet due to a lacquer layer on the top of the base sheet removes and reseals glued to the base sheet. In the base sheet longitudinal or cross slots are provided in the region of the center of the drugs, through which the individual drug can be pushed for the purpose of removal. In another embodiment according to DE 10 2007 017 856 AI is in an area around the drug around a
BESTÄTIGUNGSKOPIE Perforation vorgesehen, durch die das einzelne Medikament zwecks Entnahme hindurchgedrückt wird. CONFIRMATION COPY Perforation provided by which the single drug is pushed for the purpose of removal.
Es hat sich herausgestellt, dass unter anderem auf Grund der großen Längs-bzw. Kreuzschlitze oder der Perforation der Widerstand beim Herausdrücken des Medikamentes noch verhältnismäßig gering ist, so dass die oben genannte Aufgabe nur bedingt gelöst wurde. Davon ausgehend liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zu Grunde, ein Sicherheitsetikett der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, welches einen ausreichenden Widerstand beim Herausnehmen des Medikamentes bietet, um einen Schutz gegen unbefugtes Öffnen durch Kinder oder ein versehentliches Öffnen zu bieten. It has been found that, inter alia, due to the large longitudinal or. Phillips or the perforation of the resistance when pushing out the drug is still relatively low, so that the above task was only partially solved. On this basis, the present invention, the object of the invention to provide a security label of the type mentioned, which provides sufficient resistance when removing the drug to provide protection against unauthorized opening by children or accidental opening.
Als technische Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß ein Sicherheitsetikett der eingangs genannten Art mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 vorgeschlagen. Vorteilhafte Weiterbil- düngen dieses Sicherheitsetikettes sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen. As a technical solution to this problem, a security label of the type mentioned is proposed according to the invention with the features of claim 1. Advantageous further development of this security label can be found in the subclaims.
Ein nach dieser technischen Lehre ausgebildetes Sicherheitsetikett hat den Vorteil, dass der Einsatz der Öffnungsschnit- te ausschließlich in einem Teilabschnitt des Medikamentes o- der Medikamententroges dazu führt, dass in dem verbleibenden Restabschnitt eine geschlossene Schutzschicht besteht, die nicht durchbrochen werden kann. In der Praxis bedeutet dies, dass der Benutzer erkennen muss, dass das Medikament in den mit den Öffnungen versehenen Teilabschnitt hindurchgedrückt werden muss und nicht in dem verbleibenden, geschlossenen Restabschnitt. Hierzu bedarf es einer geistigen Reife, über welche Kleinkinder in der Regel noch nicht verfügen. Ohne diese Überlegungen steht nur ein kleiner Teil des Medikamen- tentroges zur Herausnahme des Medikamentes zur Verfügung, während der restliche Teil die Herausnahme verhindert, so dass hier eine sehr hohe Kindersicherheit erreicht wird. A security label formed according to this technical teaching has the advantage that the use of the opening sections exclusively in a partial section of the medicament drug leads to a closed protective layer in the remaining section which can not be broken through. In practice, this means that the user must recognize that the medicament must be pushed into the apertured section and not in the remaining, closed residual section. This requires a mental maturity about which toddlers usually do not have. Without these considerations, only a small portion of the drug trough will be available for taking out the drug, while the remaining part prevents the removal, so that here a very high child safety is achieved.
Hierdurch wird auch das versehentliche Öffnen erschwert, da in diesem Falle die Stelle mit den Öffnungsschnitten erst einmal getroffen werden muss. Gleichzeitig ist es dem Patienten möglich zu erkennen, dass das Medikament an der Stelle herauszudrücken ist, an der die Öffnungsschnitte platziert sind, so dass der Patient das Medikament ohne Mühe entnehmen kann. As a result, the accidental opening is difficult because in this case the place with the opening cuts must be taken once. At the same time, it is possible for the patient to recognize that the medicament is to be squeezed out at the place where the opening cuts are placed, so that the patient can remove the medicament without effort.
Ob im konkreten Fall nun zwei, drei, vier oder fünf Öffnungsschnitte vorgesehen sind, hängt vom Einzelfall ab, denn durch die Anzahl der Öffnungsschnitte kann der Schwierigkeitsgrad und der Widerstand beim Herausdrücken des Medikamentes eingestellt werden. Whether in the specific case now two, three, four or five opening sections are provided, depends on the individual case, because the number of opening cuts the degree of difficulty and the resistance can be set when pushing out the drug.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Öffnungsabschnitte äquidistant zueinander angeordnet. Dies hat den Vor- teil, dass die entsprechenden Öffnungsabschnitte in dem jeweiligen Teilabschnitt gleich verteilt sind, so dass über den gesamten Teilabschnitt betrachtet,, die gleiche Kraft aufzuwenden ist, um das Medikament zu entnehmen. In einer anderen, bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Öffnungsschnitte bezüglich ihrer virtuellen Mittellinie radial ausgerichtet. Hierdurch ist sichergestellt, dass die Öffnungsschnitte in ihrem Teilabschnitt verbleiben, beispielsweise in einem Viertelkreissegment, und dass sich der Wider- stand zum Herausnehmen des Medikamentes zum Mittelpunkt hin reduziert, so dass ein einmal durchgestoßenes Medikament in einfacher Weise entnommen werden kann. In a preferred embodiment, the opening portions are arranged equidistant from each other. This has the advantage that the corresponding opening sections in the respective section are distributed uniformly, so that viewed over the entire section, the same force has to be expended in order to remove the medicament. In another preferred embodiment, the opening cuts are radially aligned with respect to their virtual centerline. This ensures that the opening cuts remain in their section, for example in a quarter-circle segment, and that the resistance to taking out the medicament is reduced towards the center, so that a once-pierced medicament can be removed in a simple manner.
In einer weiteren, bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Öff- nungsschnitte in einem Viertel der Kontur, beispielsweise in einem Viertelkreissegment angeordnet, wobei die vertikalen Abschnitte der Öffnungsschnitte bzw. die Mittelpunkte der Öffnungsschnitte auf dem Rand des Viertels der Kontur angeordnet sind. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass in diesem Teilabschnitt sämtliche Öffnungsschnitte liegen und dass lediglich ein Viertel der Gesamtfläche mit Öffnungsschnitte versehen ist, während dreiviertel der Gesamtfläche fest verschlossen sind. In a further, preferred embodiment, the opening sections are arranged in a quarter of the contour, for example in a quarter-circle segment, wherein the vertical Sections of the opening cuts or the centers of the opening cuts are arranged on the edge of the quarter of the contour. This ensures that all opening sections are in this section and that only a quarter of the total area is provided with opening cuts, while three quarters of the total area are firmly closed.
In der Praxis hat es sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, den Öff- nungsschnitt T-förmig, t-förmig, H-förmig, F-förmig, X- förmig, Y-förmig oder sternförmig auszubilden. Bei all diesen Schnitten ist ein Durchstoßen des Sicherheitsetikettes mit einem gewissen Kraftaufwand möglich. In einer ganz bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Öffnungsschnitte T-förmig ausgebildet und mit ihrem ersten horizontalen Abschnitt auf der Kontur angeordnet, vorzugsweise tangential an der Kontur angelegt, während der zweite, vertikale Abschnitt des T-förmigen Öffnungsschnittes radial zur Mitte des Medikamententroges hin ausgerichtet ist. Dies hat denIn practice, it has proven to be advantageous to form the opening section T-shaped, T-shaped, H-shaped, F-shaped, X-shaped, Y-shaped or star-shaped. With all these cuts a penetration of the security label with a certain effort is possible. In a very preferred embodiment, the opening cuts T-shaped and arranged with its first horizontal portion on the contour, preferably applied tangentially to the contour, while the second, vertical portion of the T-shaped opening section is aligned radially towards the center of the drug trough. This has the
Vorteil, dass einerseits entlang der Kontur Schnitte angeordnet sind und dass andererseits in radialer Richtung Schnitte angeordnet sind. Hierdurch ist es in einfacher Weise möglich, das Medikament mit seinem Rand gegen das Sicherheitsetikett zu drücken, wobei der Rand nahe der Kontur anstößt und dort auf ein vergleichsweise geringen Widerstand stößt. Beim weiteren Hindurchdrücken des Medikamentes blättert sich dann das Sicherheitsetikett auf und das Medikament kann entnommen werden . Advantage that, on the one hand, cuts are arranged along the contour and, on the other hand, cuts are arranged in the radial direction. This makes it possible in a simple manner to press the drug with its edge against the security label, wherein the edge abuts near the contour and there encounters a relatively low resistance. Upon further pressing of the drug, the security label then flakes and the drug can be removed.
Ein weiterer Vorteil besteht darin, dass durch die Ausbildung des Öffnungsschnittes als T eine verhältnismäßig kleine Öffnung bereit steht, so dass hierdurch zwar eine Hilfe beim Herausdrücken des Medikamentes besteht, dass aber die Grund- läge im Übrigen aus einem zusammenhängenden Blatt besteht, welches beim Herausdrücken des Medikamentes zerrissen werden muss. Der hierbei entstehende Widerstand erschwert das versehentliche Herausdrücken des Medikamentes oder das unbefugte Öffnen des Blisters durch Kinder. In einer alternativen Ausführungsform sind die T-förmigenAnother advantage is that a relatively small opening is available as a result of the formation of the opening section as T, so that in this way an aid in expressing the medicament exists, but that the basis otherwise consists of a continuous sheet which, when pressed out of the drug are torn got to. The resulting resistance complicates the accidental pressing out of the drug or unauthorized opening of the blister by children. In an alternative embodiment, the T-shaped
Öffnungsschnitte in einer Ecke eines Medikamententroges einer Einzelverpackung angeordnet, insbesondere dann, wenn der Medikamententrog nicht kreisrund ausgebildet ist. Die oben genannten Vorteile gelten hier analog. Opening cuts arranged in a corner of a drug trough of a single package, especially if the drug trough is not circular. The above advantages apply analogously.
In der Praxis hat sich herausgestellt, dass das Verhältnis vom vertikalen Abschnitt zum horizontalen Abschnitt zwischen dem 0,3-fachen und dem 2-fachen liegen sollte, um einerseits genügend Widerstand zu bieten und um andererseits auch schwä- cheren Personen noch die Entnahme der Medikamente zu ermöglichen . In practice it has been found that the ratio of the vertical section to the horizontal section should be between 0.3 and 2 times, in order to provide enough resistance on the one hand and, on the other hand, even for weaker persons to remove the medication to enable.
In einer ganz besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist an der Grundlage ein zumindest überwiegend ablösbares Deckblatt angebracht. An diesem Deckblatt können Informationen zum Medikament aufgedruckt werden. Gestaltet man dieses Deckblatt wieder verschließbar, so kann hiermit auch ein sehr ordentlicher und aufgeräumter Eindruck der gesamten Einzelverpackung erreicht werden, so dass die erfindungsgemäße Einzelverpa- ckung auch nach mehrmaligem Gebrauch noch einen sympathischen Eindruck vermittelt. In a very particularly preferred embodiment, an at least predominantly removable cover sheet is attached to the base. Information on the medicine can be printed on this cover page. If this cover sheet is made resealable, a very neat and tidy impression of the entire individual packaging can hereby also be achieved, so that the individual packaging according to the invention still gives a sympathetic impression even after repeated use.

Fig. 17 eine Draufsicht auf eine fünfzehnte Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Sicherheitsetikettes. In den Fig. 1, Fig. 2 und Fig. 2a ist eine erste Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Sicherheitsetikettes dargestellt, welches eine Grundlage 10 umfasst, an deren Unterseite Klebstoff 11 angebracht ist, damit dieses Sicherheitsetikett auf eine Einzelverpackung 12 , zum Beispiel auf einem Blister, aufgeklebt werden kann. Die Einzelverpackung 12 umfasst eine aus einem formstabilen Kunststoff gebildete Medikamentenaufnahme 13 mit einer Anzahl von Medikamententrögen 14 und einer darauf aufgeklebten Alufolie 15 , mittels der die einzelnen Medikamente 16 steril verpackt werden können. In der Grundlage 10 sind auf einer hier nicht näher dargestellten, virtuellen Kreisbahn T-förmige Öffnungsschnitte 17 vorgesehen, wobei in dieser Ausführungsform für jeden Medikamententrog 14 drei T-förmige Öffnungsschnitte 17 vorgesehen sind. Dabei sind T-förmigen Öffnungsschnitte .17 mit ihrem horizontalen Abschnitt 18 tangential an dem virtuellen Kreissegment angeordnet, während die vertikalen Abschnitte 19 des T-förmigen Öffnungsschnittes 17 radial zur Mitte des Medikamententroges hin ausgerichtet sind. Die drei hier vorgesehe- nen T-förmigen Öffnungsschnitte 17 sind dabei derart äquidis- tant auf der virtuellen Kreisbahn angeordnet, dass die vertikalen Abschnitte 19 der beiden äußeren der Öffnungsschnitte 17 quasi rechtwinklig zueinander angeordnet sind. Das in der Zeichnung nicht eingezeichnete, virtuelle Kreissegment ist konzentrisch zum hier gestrichelt dargestellten Rand des Medikamententroges 14 angeordnet, wobei der Abstand zwischen dem virtuellen Kreissegment und dem Rand des Medikamententroges 14 so gewählt ist, dass das Medikament 16 beim Herausdrücken im Bereich des virtuellen Kreissegmentes gegen die Alufolie 15 und damit auch gegen die Grundlage 10 drückt. Fig. 17 is a plan view of a fifteenth embodiment of a security label according to the invention. 1, 2 and 2a show a first embodiment of a security label according to the invention, which comprises a base 10, on the underside of which adhesive 11 is attached, so that this security label can be applied to a single packaging 12, for example a blister, can be glued on. The individual packaging 12 comprises a medicament receptacle 13 formed from a dimensionally stable plastic with a number of medicament troughs 14 and an aluminum foil 15 adhered thereto, by means of which the individual medicaments 16 can be packaged in a sterile manner. In the base 10 T-shaped opening cuts 17 are provided on a virtual circular path, not shown here, in this embodiment, four T-shaped opening cuts 17 are provided for each drug trough 14. In this case, T-shaped opening sections 17 are arranged with their horizontal section 18 tangentially to the virtual circle segment, while the vertical sections 19 of the T-shaped opening section 17 are aligned radially towards the center of the drug trough. The three T-shaped opening sections 17 provided here are arranged equidistantly on the virtual circular path in such a way that the vertical sections 19 of the two outer of the opening sections 17 are arranged at virtually right angles to one another. The not shown in the drawing, virtual circle segment is arranged concentrically to the edge of the medicament trough 14 shown here by dashed lines, wherein the distance between the virtual circle segment and the edge of the drug trough 14 is selected so that the drug 16 against pressing in the region of the virtual circle segment against the aluminum foil 15 and thus also against the base 10 presses.
In einer anderen, hier nicht dargestellten Ausführungsform ist für jedes Medikament nur ein einziger T-förmiger Öff- nungsschnitt vorgesehen. In noch einer anderen, hier nicht dargestellten Ausführungsform können auch zwei, vier oder fünf T-förmige Öffnungsschnitte je Medikament vorgesehen werden. Dies richtet sich insbesondere nach dem vom Hersteller gewünschten Widerstand, da mit der Anzahl der T-förmigen Öff- nungsschnitte der Widerstand beim Herausdrücken des Medikamentes geringer wird. In another embodiment, not shown here, only a single T-shaped opening cut is provided for each drug. In yet another embodiment, not shown here, two, four or five T-shaped opening cuts per drug can be provided. This depends, in particular, on the resistance desired by the manufacturer, since the number of T-shaped opening cuts reduces the resistance when the medicament is pressed out.
Die hier erwähnte Einzelverpackung kann beispielsweise ein Blister oder ein Wallet sein, aber auch jede andere Verpa- ckung von Medikamenten, bei der die Medikamente einzeln in einem bestimmten Hohlraum untergebracht sind. In der hier dargestellten, ersten Ausführungsform sind die vertikalen Abschnitte 19 genauso lang ausgebildet, wie die horizontalen Abschnitte 18 , wobei die Abschnitte 18 , 19 so klein ausgebildet sind, dass benachbarte Öffnungsschnitte 17 einen deutlichen Abstand voneinander haben. Dieser Abstand sollte mindestens die Hälfte der Länge eines horizontalen Abschnittes 18 betragen. Daraus ergibt sich auch, dass der vertikale Abschnitt 19 zwar in Richtung des Mittelpunktes des Medikamententroges 14 ausgerichtet ist, jedoch von diesem deutlich beabstandet bleibt. The individual packaging mentioned here can be, for example, a blister or a wallet, but also any other packaging of medicaments in which the medicaments are accommodated individually in a specific cavity. In the first embodiment shown here, the vertical portions 19 are formed as long as the horizontal portions 18, wherein the portions 18, 19 are formed so small that adjacent opening cuts 17 have a significant distance from each other. This distance should be at least half the length of a horizontal section 18. It also follows that, although the vertical portion 19 is aligned in the direction of the center of the drug trough 14, but remains clearly spaced therefrom.
Beim Herausdrücken des Medikamentes 16 aus der Einzelverpackung 12 muss die Alufolie 15 und die Grundlage 10 durchstoßen werden. Versucht man das Medikament in einem Bereich durchzustoßen, in dem keine T-förmigen Öffnungsschnitte 17 vorgesehen sind, so wird dies einem normal starken Patienten nicht gelingen. Wird das Medikament 16 allerdings im Bereich der T-förmigen Öffnungsschnitte 17 durchgedrückt, so ist der Widerstand an dieser Stelle reduziert, und es gelingt einem normal starken Patienten, die Alufolie 15 und die außerhalb der Öffnungsschnitte verbleibenden Bereiche der Grundlage 10 zu durchstoßen, um das Medikament 16 zu entnehmen. Auf diese Weise ist eine gewisse Kindersicherung erreicht und auch ein versehentliches Durchdrücken der Medikamente 16 wird fast unmöglich. When pushing out the drug 16 from the individual packaging 12, the aluminum foil 15 and the base 10 must be pierced. If one tries to penetrate the drug in a region in which no T-shaped opening cuts 17 are provided, this will not succeed a normally strong patient. However, if the medicament 16 is pushed through in the area of the T-shaped opening cuts 17, the resistance at this point is reduced and a normally strong patient succeeds in piercing the aluminum foil 15 and the areas of the base 10 remaining outside the opening cuts Take drug 16. In this way, a certain parental control is achieved and accidental pressing of the drugs 16 is almost impossible.
Die in Fig. 3 und Fig. 4 dargestellte zweite Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Sicherheitsetikettes ist betreffend die Grundlage 20 und die Einzelverpackung 22 identisch mit der in den Fig. 1 und Fig. 2 gezeigten ersten Ausführungsform, jedoch ist in dieser zweiten Ausführungsform zusätzlich ein Deckblatt 23 vorgesehen, welches bündig auf der Grundlage 20 aufgeklebt ist. Zusätzlich ist auf der Grundlage 20 bis auf einen Bund 25 eine Silikonschicht 24 aufgebracht, so dass das Deckblatt 23 mehrfach geöffnet und anschließend wieder zuverlässig verschlossen werden kann. Die in Fig. 5 dargestellte dritte Ausführungform unterscheidet von der in den Fig. 1 und Fig. 2 dargestellten ersten Ausführungsform lediglich dadurch, dass hier der Medikamententrog 34 der Einzelverpackung 32 nicht kreisrund, sondern annähernd viereckig ausgebildet ist. Dementsprechend sind die in der Grundlage 30 angeordneten Öffnungsschnitte 37 auf einem virtuellen Kreissegment in einer Ecke des Medikamententroges 34 angeordnet. Das zuvor Gesagte beim Herausdrücken des Medikamentes gilt hier analog. The second embodiment of a security label according to the invention shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is identical to the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 with regard to the base 20 and the individual packaging 22, but in this second embodiment additionally a cover sheet 23 provided, which is glued flush on the basis 20. In addition, on the basis of 20 except for a collar 25, a silicone layer 24 is applied, so that the cover sheet 23 can be opened several times and then reliably closed again. The third embodiment shown in FIG. 5 differs from the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 merely in that here the medicament trough 34 of the individual packaging 32 is not circular, but is approximately quadrangular. Accordingly, the opening cuts 37 arranged in the base 30 are arranged on a virtual circle segment in a corner of the drug tray 34. The previously said when pushing out the drug applies here analogously.
In den Fig. 6 bis Fig. 15 sind weitere Ausführungsformen des Sicherheitsetikettes dargestellt, die sich von der beispielsweise in den Fig. 1 bis Fig. 2a dargestellten ersten Ausführungsform lediglich durch einen anders gestalteten Öffnungs- schnitt unterscheiden.
