Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closure cap for a container for holding a pharmaceutical substance, in particular for an infusion or transfusion bottle, with a crimping cap suitable for grasping a container neck, which has a metallic foil layer, the crimping cap furthermore having a recess which is covered by a plastic lid is, wherein furthermore the plastic lid with the crimp cap is connected by means of at least one lower side formed connecting element and the plastic cover is at least partially removable.
  • the state of the art is first on the DE-U1-76 24 855 to refer.
  • an end-side region of the crimp cap which is prepared by predetermined breaking lines, is torn open when lifting the bow-shaped plastic cover, in order to allow the piercing of a cannula into the sealing plug covered by the crimp cap.
  • the crimping cap of this known closure cap has a recess in which, on the one hand, the sealing plug is exposed, but on the other hand also forms a gripping edge for connecting elements emanating from the plastic lid.
  • the invention is concerned with the task of specifying a cap for a container for receiving a pharmaceutical substance, which is more reliable Handling meets high requirements for a tamper-proof.
  • a solution of the problem is given in a closure cap, wherein the plastic cover is connected via a plurality of connecting elements formed on this underside under penetration of this in the crimp cap separately formed by the recess connecting openings with the crimp cap and the plastic lid to expose the recess a pull tab which extends from an overlap of the recess to an edge of the plastic lid.
  • the invention goes the way, on the one hand to connect the plastic lid in several places and firmly with the crimp cap, so that when tearing the plastic cover this connection can be maintained.
  • the plastic lid for tearing open a tear tab with the removal of the recess of the crimp cap is exposed directly to the piercing of a cannula. At the same time it can be safely established that a first use already existed, since the tear tab is to remove this, but at least a damage in the region of a transition of the tear tab in the plastic lid, moreover, about the weakening zone described below, is present.
  • the pull tab is not connected to the crimp cap over its entire extent.
  • the tearing occurs only relative to the surrounding area of the plastic lid.
  • the plastic lid remains connected after removing the pull tab with the crimp cap. Only the area of the crimp cap, which is in overlap to the pull tab, is exposed after tearing off the pull tab.
  • the plastic cover is connected to the crimp cap via more than two, preferably four connecting elements.
  • connecting elements are distributed at equal angles.
  • connection is achieved by hot forming or ultrasound. The fasteners are so riveted with the crimp cap.
  • the pull tab preferably represents in a plan view a circular segment of the plastic lid.
  • the central area is in this case designed according to the recess located underneath, in any case to one half. This one half is preferably formed circular segment. In this respect, the tear tab extends beyond the center of the plastic lid.
  • the plastic lid in the tear tab is not connected to a connecting element with the crimp cap. Rather, the connection with the crimp cap is preferably provided only outside the tear tab.
  • An opening formed for the passage of the crimp cap for a connecting element in the crimp cap connection opening is preferably adapted with respect to its opening edge to a cross-sectional outer edge of the connecting element. More preferably, the cross-sectional outer edge is circular and, correspondingly, the peripheral edge of the connecting opening is also circular. Also with regard to the diameter or the size of the recess is preferred that it is adapted to the outer diameter or the outer dimensions of the cross-sectional area of the connecting element in the field of enforcement of the crimp cap, that is only a little larger. It is accordingly each a single connection opening, which is preferably penetrated by a single connection element (only). In this respect, a plurality of individual, not mutually communicating connection openings are preferably formed in the crimp cap.
  • the sealing plug may consist of a rubber material, but also of a thermoplastic elastomer, for example.
  • the plastic lid is like a bowl, designed with a connected to the crimp cap state turned down shell edge.
  • the shell edge preferably does not extend as far down as the crimp cap, so it is visible in the applied state on the container in its lower, the neck of the container also encompassing area, even with intact plastic lid.
  • the container 2 is, for example, an infusion or transfusion bottle.
  • the closure cap 1 consists in detail of a plastic lid 3 and a crimp cap 4.
  • the crimp cap 4 consists of a metal part, preferably a metallic foil.
  • a recess 5 is formed in the crimp cap 4.
  • the recess 5 is preferred and formed in the embodiment centrally in a top disc portion 6 of the crimp 4. Under the recess 5 is inserted into a mouth of the container 2 sealing plug 7 free. Through the recess 5 can be inserted with a cannula in the closure plug 7 to remove liquid from the container 2.
  • a container neck 8 of the container 2 is included.
  • the closure 1 is attached to the container 2.
  • the plastic cover 3 is connected via connecting elements 9, in the embodiment and preferably four connecting elements 9, with the crimp 4.
  • the connecting elements 9 are formed as solid or tubular cylinder parts, which protrude freely from an underside 10 of the plastic lid 3 down. They pass through openings 11 in the disc portion 6 of the crimp cap 4 and are increased below the disc portion 6 of the crimp cap 4 by hot deformation, so that a rivet-like connection with the crimp cap 4 results.
  • the plastic lid 3 is a total shell-like, turned in the arrangement with a shell edge down, formed.
  • a tear tab 12 is formed, which is connected via a weakening zone 13 with the remaining part of the plastic lid 3.
  • the weakening zone 13 is obviously U-shaped, wherein the U-web in the embodiment and is preferably designed in a circular segment.
  • the U-legs of the weakening zone 13 continue on the front in vertical sections 14, which allow tearing in the region of the substantially vertically extending circumferential skirt 15 (shell edge) of the lid 3.
  • a peripheral edge 16 of the pull tab 12 extends in the embodiment and Favor at least partially below a lower edge 17 of the plastic cover 3 or specifically, in the embodiment, the circumferential skirt 15. It also extends preferably with a certain radial distance from the crimp cap 4, so that for removing the Tear tab 12 can be taken under a finger.
  • the edge and in particular the peripheral edge 16 of the pull tab 12 with respect to the lower edge 17 of the plastic cover the rest can also be dispensed with.
  • the tear tab 12 can also be completely fitted in the contour and / or at the lower edge into the contour or the lower edge of the plastic lid 3, moreover.
  • the state after removing the pull tab 12 shows Fig. 5 , The opening 5 is completely exposed, so that, as described, can be inserted into the sealing plug 7 with a cannula.
  • the crimp cap 4 is otherwise unaltered, except that it is exposed in the region of the tear tab 12. In particular, no part of the crimp cap 4 is torn off or removed or even bent.
