Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plastic container product, in particular manufactured by a blow molding, filling and sealing process, with a container body having a container content and an adjoining head part which delimits a removal area which is closed by a head membrane which has a connecting seam, which penetrates a plane spanned by the head membrane and separates penetrable areas on the free face of the head membrane for a removal process of the container contents.
  • Plastic containers that are produced in a blow molding, filling and sealing process are used for food and luxury goods as well as in medicine with great advantage for the packaging of pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, enteral nutrition and medical products, e.g. rinsing and dialysis solutions.
  • An essential advantage of such containers for these purposes is that the contents only come into contact with a polymer forming the container material, typically a polymer Plastic like LDPE, HDPE or PP.
  • a polymer Plastic like LDPE, HDPE or PP typically a polymer Plastic like LDPE, HDPE or PP.
  • Containers that are intended for injection, infusion, transfusion or enteral nutrition have a special shape of the head area for the formation of accesses to the container contents.
  • the one-piece design of the container and head enables safe sterility of the filling material with particularly efficient implementation of the manufacturing process.
  • Caps with elastomer sealing elements (DIN ISO 15759) are attached to the container head by welding or overmolding.
  • a plastic container is known with preferred, thin-walled piercing positions for a cannula arranged on a defined lateral shoulder area of the container.
  • Sufficient thinning can only be achieved here with a very complex tool technology, taking into account indented areas that make easy cleaning very difficult.
  • a complete emptying of the container is not possible via these thin spots, since they are not located at the highest or lowest part of the container.
  • U.S. 4,574,965 ( Fig. 1 and 3 ) shows - as well CN 85103261 A ( Fig. 1, 2 and 3 ) - in addition, a disadvantageous course of the mold parting line in the head area ( Fig. 1 and 3 : seam 18); as a result, the puncture point is very close to the edge of the container head and there is a great danger that the cannula will also unintentionally puncture the neck area of the container even if the angle of penetration is slightly different.
  • Another disadvantage is the low central rigidity of the container head, which is shown in DE 10 2013 012809 picked up becomes.
  • the EP 0621027 A1 shows in Figure 4 a container with a dividing line (42; "parting line”; column 8, lines 26ff) which extends in a straight line across the container body in an end view.
  • a parting line typically results in blow molding due to the use of two-part molds.
  • the dividing line results from the separations of the shaping two-part tool.
  • the associated sealing or connecting seam in the head area has a minimal length and follows the course of the dividing line in a straight line.
  • sealing seams are generally made as short as possible - not only with blow-molded containers - in order to minimize the risk of weak points, defects or even leaks, which in the case of filled containers with sterile filling material for medical purposes has very serious consequences for the health of the patient may have.
  • the DE 10 2013 012 809 A1 relates to a container product in which, instead of a uniform head membrane, which has a uniform curvature the Spanning the end of the head part of the container body, different head surfaces are formed which form different curvatures at the head part end, so that an increased resistance to bending and easier piercing, cutting or penetration is achieved for the possible total removal area of the head membrane. Evasion of the head membrane during the removal process and the risk of leaks are thereby kept to a minimum and handling is possible in a safe manner even when using less sharp spikes, blades or thick cannulas.
  • the invention is based on the object of creating a container product which is further improved compared to the known solutions, in particular with regard to the handling and the removal behavior for the container contents.
  • a pertinent object is achieved by a container product with the features of claim 1 in its entirety.
  • the connecting seam seen on the free face of the head membrane has a seam course which at least partially deviates from a fictitious straight course, which extends within this plane, which is longer than the straight course and which is penetrable
  • At least partially encompassing areas, very thin-walled, penetrable areas can be formed which are supported by the extended connecting or sealing seam lying in the plane of the head membrane in such a way that it does not come into contact with the respective penetrable area during the removal or addition process of the container contents unintentionally denting of the entire head membrane with deteriorated removal behavior, in particular with regard to sterility, can occur.
  • the handling of the plastic container product according to the invention as a whole is made easier for an operator and, moreover, a safe addition and / or removal process of the container contents is guaranteed in every case.
  • the support and stiffening function for the addition or removal process via the connecting seam according to the invention is also ensured by the fact that, leaving the straight alignment, it at least partially encompasses the penetrable areas and thus further stiffens the edges. Due to the supporting and securing connection seam of the head part, it is therefore possible to reduce the wall diameter of the penetrable areas on the free face of the head diaphragm compared to the other wall parts of the head diaphragm, which further facilitates the mentioned addition and / or removal process.
  • connection seam which is considerably lengthened compared to an otherwise straight course, using the known blow molding, filling and sealing process (BFS) in a routine production-safe manner results in thin areas as penetrable areas of 0.10 mm to 0 , 25 mm can easily be created without leaks at the connection seam, which is technically also referred to as a head seal seam or head weld seam, and without tearing at the thin spots when internal pressure loads occur in the temperature range above 110 ° C; Temperature ranges, such as those that arise during the sterilization of the filled container product as part of the necessary autoclave process.
  • BFS blow molding, filling and sealing process
  • the seam course of the connecting seam is designed as a kind of sealed or welded seam, which is created during the production of the head part within the scope of the blow molding, filling and sealing process (BFS), which continues along the same on opposite sides of the head part and merges into the mold parting line that is created during its production with multi-part, molding tools as part of the BFS process.
  • BFS blow molding, filling and sealing process
  • the mentioned penetrable areas with a reduced wall thickness compared to the average wall thickness of the head diaphragm also arise in the head membrane in the context of the manufacturing process mentioned.
  • the sealed or welded seam extends completely through the head membrane in a sealed manner.
  • the seam course in the head membrane merges at two opposite points into the corresponding dividing lines / seam course in the rest of the head part, which form a fictitious connecting straight line between them, on which the centers of the penetrable areas of the head membrane lie and / or outside, and that, in one embodiment, the fictitious straight line delimits at least one penetrable area in the manner of a tangent or this area assumes a predeterminable distance from the fictitious straight line.
  • the penetrable areas can be arranged in a supported manner on the head membrane of the container product for a large number of applications in an operationally safe manner.
  • the connecting seam similar or directly to the course of a sinusoidal wave on the head membrane, the wave trough and / or wave crest of which each receive a penetrable area of the head membrane and thus at least partially support it.
  • the container body is preferably firmly connected via its head part and / or via a collar between the head part and the container body to a cap part which has externally releasable or released piercing parts which are congruent with are to be arranged in the assignable penetrable areas of the head membrane. Since the mentioned penetrable areas in the head membrane can be arranged off-center and the cap part with its piercing parts has to cover the penetrable areas for a removal process, it is possible according to the invention and advantageously provided to apply the cap parts to the container rotated by a predeterminable offset angle .
