Description

Spender zur Dosierung von Tabletten oder Pulvern  Dispenser for dosing tablets or powders
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Spender zur Dosierung von Tabletten oder Pulvern, mit einem Behälter zur Aufnahme der Tabletten oder Pulver und einem mit dem Behälter verbundenen Dosierelement, das mit einem Auslass für Tabletten oder Pulver versehen ist und zwei um eine gemeinsame Achse zueinander drehbare Teile, nämlich einen Stator und einen Rotor aufweist, wobei der mit dem Behälter verbundene Stator an seinem Umfang unten bis auf eine Durchgangsöffnung durch den Rotor abgedeckt ist . The invention relates to a dispenser for dispensing tablets or powders, comprising a container for holding the tablets or powder and a dosing element connected to the container, which is provided with an outlet for tablets or powder and two parts rotatable about a common axis namely, having a stator and a rotor, wherein the stator connected to the container is covered at its periphery down to a passage opening through the rotor.
Vorliegende Erfindung hat es sich zum Ziel gesetzt, einen solchen Spender derart auszubilden, dass der erste Verbraucher sicher sein kann, dass der Behälter mit originalen Produkten gefüllt ist, dass diese Füllung auch vollständig ist, und überdies ein Gebrauch durch Kinder zumindest erschwert ist. The present invention has set itself the goal of designing such a dispenser so that the first consumer can be sure that the container is filled with original products, that this filling is also complete, and moreover a use by children is at least difficult.
Erreicht wird dieses Ziel dadurch, dass eine Kappe zum Überdecken von Rotor und Stator über eine erste Originalitätsvorrichtung mit Rotor und Stator verbunden ist, und Rotor und Stator mit dem Behälter über eine zweite Originalitätsvorrichtung verbunden sind, sowie der Spender mit einer Kindersicherung ausgestattet ist. This object is achieved in that a cap for covering the rotor and stator is connected via a first rotor and stator originality device, and rotor and stator are connected to the container via a second originality device, and the dispenser is provided with a child safety device.
Durch die erfindungsgemäßen Maßnahmen wird verhindert, dass The inventive measures prevents that
1. der Behälter geöffnet wird, ohne dass dies nachher bemerkt wird, 1. the container is opened without later being noticed,
2. durch eine entsprechende gegenläufige Verdrehung von Stator und Rotor aus dem Behälter Tabletten oder Pulver entnommen wurden, und  2. By appropriate counter-rotation of stator and rotor from the container tablets or powder were removed, and
3. dass ein Kind Zugriff auf den Inhalt des Behälters erlangen kann. Im Rahmen der Erfindung kann die Kindersicherung derart ausgebildet sein, dass der Stator an seinem Umfang mit einer Verzahnung versehen ist, in welche mindestens ein Zahnsegment des aus elastisch verformbaren Material bestehenden Rotors eingreift. Um Stator und Rotor gegeneinander verdrehen zu können muss daher der Rotor elastisch zu einem Oval verformt werden . 3. that a child can gain access to the contents of the container. In the context of the invention, the child safety device can be designed such that the stator is provided at its periphery with a toothing, in which engages at least one toothed segment of the rotor made of elastically deformable material. In order to rotate the stator and rotor against each other, therefore, the rotor must be elastically deformed into an oval.
Zweckmäßig sind dabei die Zahne des Rotors und die des Zahnsegmentes an ihrem Ende beidseitig hakenförmig ausgebildet. Dadurch wird eine sichere Verhakung der Zähne erreicht. Appropriately, the teeth of the rotor and the toothed segment are formed on both sides hook-shaped at its end. As a result, a secure hooking of the teeth is achieved.
Die Haken sind in ihrem ineinander übergehenden Bereich vorteilhaft abgerundet. The hooks are advantageously rounded in their merging area.
Eine andere Aus führungs form der Kindersicherung sieht vor, dass der Stator mit mindestens einem elastisch verformbaren Betätigungsknopf versehen ist, der in seiner Ruhestellung in einer Öffnung des Rotors liegt. Um eine gegenseitige Verdrehung von Stator und Rotor zu erreichen muss daher der Betätigungsknopf gedrückt werden. Zweckmäßig sind zwei gegenüberliegende Knöpfe angeordnet. Another embodiment of the child safety device provides that the stator is provided with at least one elastically deformable actuating button, which lies in its rest position in an opening of the rotor. In order to achieve a mutual rotation of the stator and rotor, therefore, the actuating button must be pressed. Conveniently, two opposing buttons are arranged.
Gemein ist somit den vorstehend beschriebenenCommon is thus the one described above
Kindersicherungen, dass für eine Verdrehung von Rotor zu Stator zugleich eine Druckaufbringung auf den Rotor oder Stator bzw. auf ein mit Rotor oder Stator verbundenes Element erforderlich ist. Da (Klein- ) Kinder üblicherweise nicht in der Lage sind eine derartige kombinierte Druck-/Drehbewegung auszuüben, sind derartige Vorrichtungen gut als erfindungsgemäßeChild restraints that for a rotation from rotor to stator at the same time a pressure application to the rotor or stator or to a rotor or stator connected element is required. Since (small) children are usually not able to exercise such a combined pressure / rotation movement, such devices are well than inventive
Kindersicherungen geeignet. Parental controls suitable.
Eine andere Ausführung der Sicherung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass der Behälter mindestens einen nach innen ragenden Vorsprung aufweist, der mit einem am Rotor angeordneten federnden Arm derart zusammen wirkt, dass nach dem Bewegen des Armes am Vorsprung vorbei ein Rückdrehen gesperrt ist. Another embodiment of the fuse is characterized in that the container has at least one inwardly projecting projection which cooperates with a resilient arm arranged on the rotor such that after moving the Poor past the lead over a reverse turn is locked.
Der Rotor kann auch mit einer Aufnahme für ein Trockenmittel versehen sein. Dies stellt eine weitere Sicherungsmaßnahme dar. The rotor may also be provided with a receptacle for a desiccant. This represents another security measure.
Nachstehend ist die Erfindung an Hand der Zeichnungen näher beschrieben, in denen Ausführungsbeispiele dargestellt sind, auf welche die Erfindung jedoch keineswegs beschränkt ist. The invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings, in which exemplary embodiments are shown, but to which the invention is by no means limited.

OriginalitätsSicherung . Originality assurance.
Gemäß Fig. 1 besteht ein Spender zur Dosierung von Tabletten aus einem Behälter 1, einem Stator 2, einem Rotor 3 und einer Kappe 4. According to FIG. 1, a dispenser for dispensing tablets consists of a container 1, a stator 2, a rotor 3 and a cap 4.
Gemäß Fig. 2 ist mit der Kappe 4 mittels Stegen 5' ein Originalitätsband 5 verbunden. Im zusammengebauten Zustand wird die Kappe 4 mit dem Originalitätsband 5 auf Rotor 3 und Stator 2 geschoben, wo sich das Originalitätsband 5 mit Vorsprüngen 6 verhakt. According to FIG. 2, a tamper-evident band 5 is connected to the cap 4 by means of webs 5 '. In the assembled state, the cap 4 is pushed with the tamper-evident band 5 on the rotor 3 and stator 2, where the tamper-evident band 5 hooks with projections 6.
Beim erstmaligen Gebrauch des Spenders wird die Kappe 4 abgenommen und dabei werden die Stege 5' abgebrochen. Das Originalitätsband 5 verbleibt am Stator 2. When the donor is used for the first time, the cap 4 is removed and the webs 5 'are broken off. The tamper-evident band 5 remains on the stator 2.
Es ist somit jederzeit ersichtlich, ob die Kappe 4 bereits einmal entfernt wurde. It is thus evident at any time whether the cap 4 has already been removed once.
In Fig. 4 ist gezeigt, dass auch der Behälter 1 mit dem Stator 2 über ein Originalitätsband 7 verbunden ist. Dieses Band 7 ist über schmale Stege 7' mit einem geriffelten Teil 8 des Stators 2 verbunden. Bei versuchtem Entfernen des Behälters 1 werden die Stege 7 ' abgerissen, sodass eine Verletzung der Originalität sofort ersichtlich ist. In Fig. 5 ist der innere Aufbau vom Stator 2 und Rotor 3 dargestellt. Die beiden Teile 2 und 3 sind bei 9 drehbar miteinander verbunden, wobei eine erwünschte Drehung über zwei gegenüberliegende Betätigungsflächen 10 erfolgt. FIG. 4 shows that the container 1 is also connected to the stator 2 via a tamper-evident band 7. This band 7 is connected via narrow webs 7 'with a corrugated part 8 of the stator 2. In attempted removal of the container 1, the webs 7 'are demolished, so that a violation of the originality is immediately apparent. In Fig. 5, the inner structure of the stator 2 and rotor 3 is shown. The two parts 2 and 3 are rotatably connected to each other at 9, wherein a desired rotation via two opposite actuating surfaces 10 takes place.
Der Stator 2 nimmt vorteilhaft in einzelnen Kammern vom Behälter 1 kommende Tabletten 11 auf und ist unten bis auf eine Durchlassöffnung 2 durch den Rotor 3 abgedeckt. Wird nach Drücken der Betätigungsflächen 10, welche als Kindersicherung wirken, der Rotor 2 gegenüber dem Stator 1 solange verdreht, bis eine Tablette 11, welche sich vorteilhaft in einer Kammer befindet, über die Durchgangsöffnung 12 gelangt. Die Tablette 11 fällt dann selbständig heraus, wobei die Kammer des Stators 2 durch einen mit dem Rotor 3 verbundenen Schirm 13 abgedeckt wird, wodurch ein Nachrutschen von weiteren Tabletten 11 verhindert wird . The stator 2 advantageously takes in individual chambers from the container 1 coming tablets 11 and is covered down to a passage opening 2 by the rotor 3. If, after pressing the actuating surfaces 10, which act as child safety, the rotor 2 with respect to the stator 1 is rotated until a tablet 11, which is advantageously in a chamber, passes through the passage opening 12. The tablet 11 then falls out automatically, wherein the chamber of the stator 2 is covered by a screen 13 connected to the rotor 3, whereby slipping of further tablets 11 is prevented.
Werden mehr Tabletten verlangt, wird der Rotor 3 einfach so oft weiter gedreht, bis die erforderliche Anzahl erreicht ist. If more tablets are required, the rotor 3 simply continues to be rotated until the required number has been reached.
Die Einzelteile eines Spenders zur Dosierung von Pulvern sind in Fig. 6 übereinander dargestellt. Demnach sind vorhanden ein Behälter 21, ein Stator 22, ein Rotor 23 und eine Kappe 24. Überdies ist eine Trennungsscheibe 25 gezeigt. The items of a dispenser for dispensing powders are shown in Fig. 6 one above the other. Thus, there are a container 21, a stator 22, a rotor 23 and a cap 24. Moreover, a separation disk 25 is shown.
Zwischen der Kappe 24 und dem Stator 22 ist wie beim Spender für Tabletten ebenfalls ein Originalitätsband (nicht dargestellt) vorgesehen. Between the cap 24 and the stator 22 as well as the dispenser for tablets also a tamper-evident band (not shown) is provided.
Auch zwischen dem Behälter 21 und dem Stator 22 ist ein Originalitätsband angeordnet. Unterschiedlich gegenüber der vorstehend beschriebenen Aus führungs form ist lediglich, dass dieses Band in einzelne Abschnitte aufgeteilt ist, sodass der geriffelte Teil 28 des Stators 22 ausgeschnitten ist. Dadurch wird jedoch nur das Design des Spenders verändert. Als Kindersicherung sind bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel zwei elastische verformbare Betätigungsknöpfe 29 angeordnet, die in Ruhstellung in Öffnungen 30 des Rotors 23 ruhen. Nur nach Eindrücken der Betätigungsknöpfe 29 kann der Rotor 23 verdreht werden . Also between the container 21 and the stator 22, a tamper-evident band is arranged. Different from the embodiment described above, only that this band is divided into individual sections, so that the corrugated part 28 of the stator 22 is cut out. However, this only changes the design of the donor. As a child safety two elastic deformable actuating buttons 29 are arranged in this embodiment, which rest in the rest position in openings 30 of the rotor 23. Only after pressing the operation buttons 29, the rotor 23 can be rotated.
Gemäß Fig. 8 ist die Trennungsscheibe 25 mittels einer Schnappverbindung 31 mit dem Rotor 23 drehfest verbunden. Die Trennungsscheibe 25 besitzt einen Ausschnitt 32, der größenmäßig der Durchgangsöffnung 33 entspricht. According to FIG. 8, the separation disk 25 is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the rotor 23 by means of a snap connection 31. The separation disk 25 has a cutout 32 which corresponds in terms of size to the passage opening 33.
Wird daher der Rotor 23 mit der Trennungsscheibe 25 soweit verdreht, dass der Ausschnitt 32 über die Durchgangsöffnung 33 gelangt, kann im Behälter 21 vorhandenes Pulver ausströmen. Therefore, if the rotor 23 with the separation disk 25 is rotated so far that the cutout 32 passes over the passage opening 33, powder present in the container 21 can flow out.
In den Fig. 9 bis 11 ist eine Kindersicherung dargestellt, wie sie beim Tablettenspender nach Fig. 1 verwendet werden könnte. FIGS. 9 to 11 show a child safety device as could be used in the case of the tablet dispenser according to FIG.
Demnach ist der Stator 2 an seinem den Rotor 3 innen umgreifenden Umfang mit einer Verzahnung 40 versehen und der aus elastisch verformbaren Materialien bestehende Rotor 3 weist mindestens ein Zahnsegment 41 auf, dass in unverformtem Zustand in die Verzahnung 40 des Stators 2 eingreift. Bei einem durch die Pfeile in Fig. 11 angedeuteten Verformung des Rotors 3 gelangen die Zähne des Zahnsegmentes oder der Zahnsegmente 41 außer Eingriff mit der Verzahnung 40 des Stators 2 und der Rotor 3 kann verdreht werden. Accordingly, the stator 2 is provided at its the rotor 3 inside embracing circumference with a toothing 40 and consisting of elastically deformable materials rotor 3 has at least one toothed segment 41 that engages in the undeformed state in the toothing 40 of the stator 2. When indicated by the arrows in Fig. 11 deformation of the rotor 3 reach the teeth of the toothed segment or the toothed segments 41 out of engagement with the toothing 40 of the stator 2 and the rotor 3 can be rotated.
In den Fig. 12 bis 15 ist eine Vorrichtung zur Verhinderung eines Rückdrehens eines auf einen Behälter auf geschraubten Stators dargestellt. Im Beispiel ist der Stator 50 mit einem Gewinde 51 versehen, mittels dem er auf einem Behälter (nicht dargestellt) aufgeschraubt werden kann. Der Stator 50 weist überdies einen federnden Arm 52 auf, der mit dem Vorsprung 53 gemäß den Fig. 13, 14 und 15 zusammenwirkt. Gemäß Fig. 13 wird beim Aufschrauben des Stators 50 beim Vorbeibewegen des federnden Armes 52 am Vorsprung 53 sich der Arm 52 um dem gedachten Drehpunkt 54 federnd nach außen bewegen und über dem rampenartigen Vorsprung 53 gleiten. In Figs. 12 to 15, there is shown an apparatus for preventing reverse rotation of a container screwed on a stator. In the example, the stator 50 is provided with a thread 51, by means of which it can be screwed onto a container (not shown). The stator 50 also has a resilient arm 52, which cooperates with the projection 53 according to FIGS. 13, 14 and 15. Referring to FIG. 13, when the stator 50 is screwed in as the resilient arm 52 moves past the projection 53, the arm 52 will resiliently move outwardly about the imaginary pivot point 54 and slide over the ramp-like projection 53.
Nach Ende dieser Bewegung schnappt der federnde Arm 52 wieder nach innen und liegt an der Stirnseite des Vorsprunges 53 an (Fig. 14) . After the end of this movement, the resilient arm 52 again snaps inwards and rests against the end face of the projection 53 (FIG. 14).
Beim versuchten Aufschrauben gleitet die Kontaktkante des federnden Armes 52 entlang des Vorsprunges 53 bis zur Ecke 55 und sperrt so eine weitere Rückbewegung (Fig. 15) . When attempting to screw on the contact edge of the resilient arm 52 slides along the projection 53 to the corner 55 and thus blocks a further return movement (Fig. 15).
In Fig. 16 ist dargestellt, wie auch aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich ist, dass der Rotor 3 mit einer Aufnahme 56 für ein Trockenmittel 57 versehen ist. FIG. 16 shows, as can also be seen from FIG. 1, that the rotor 3 is provided with a receptacle 56 for a desiccant 57.
In Fig. 17 ist eine Ausführungsform dargestellt, bei der unter Wegfall der eigenen Qualitätsvorrichtung zwischen Rotor und Stator der Behälter 60 mit einer Kappe 61 über eine Originalitätsvorrichtung 62 direkt verbunden ist. Die Kappe 61 schließt die Einheit 63 aus Stator und Rotor ein. FIG. 17 shows an embodiment in which, with the elimination of the own quality device between rotor and stator, the container 60 is directly connected to a cap 61 via an originality device 62. The cap 61 includes the unit 63 of stator and rotor.
Im Rahmen der Erfindung sind zahlreiche Abänderungen möglich. So kann die Kindersicherung nach den Fig. 9 bis 11 z.B. auch bei einem Spender zur Abgabe von Pulver gemäß Fig. 6 verwendet werden bzw. ist eine Kindersicherung nach Fig. 7 z.B. bei einem Spender für Tabletten nach Fig. 1 möglich. An sich wäre auch die Verwendung von anderen Kindersicherungen denkbar. Auch die Art der Originalitätsvorrichtungen ist nicht auf die dargestellten Beispiele beschränkt. Numerous modifications are possible within the scope of the invention. Thus, the child safety device according to FIGS. 9 to 11, e.g. are also used in a dispenser for dispensing powder according to FIG. 6 or a child safety device according to FIG. in a dispenser for tablets according to Fig. 1 possible. In itself, the use of other parental controls would be conceivable. The nature of the originality devices is not limited to the illustrated examples.
