Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a carrier device for medicaments according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • medication in solid form is to be thought in particular, that is, in addition to powder or granular forms of administration, in particular tablets, which offer the advantage of being able to easily determine a predetermined dose by means of the number. Tablets are also easier to handle. Last but not least, fractional dosing by dividing is also possible.
  • US-A-2014/117060 (Colone) proposed to provide recesses in a bracelet to hold a drug.
  • the wells are closed with caps.
  • the bracelet itself is either flexible so that it can be stretched over the hand, or stiff, but then with a gap or something similar for the same purpose.
  • the device is intended to be worn on the wrist. The wearer herself has easy access to the medication at all times, but in an emergency, rescue workers can easily discover the medication and have access.
  • this device is not suitable for carrying medication to be taken regularly with you. For this it would be necessary to provide an easy interchangeability or a simple refilling of the medication.
  • Another aspect is to help people who cannot reliably think about taking medication themselves, e.g. B. a daily dose, or the next doses in such a way that third parties can check with little effort whether and which dose has been taken or still has to be taken. Finally, such a device should also be associated with low costs.
  • One object of the present invention is therefore to provide a carrying device for medication in solid form, which is better suited for carrying medication in solid form, in particular in tablet form, which must be taken according to a predetermined regime.
  • a fundamental property of the carrying device is that it can be exchanged easily.
  • the simplest measure for this is to equip the carrying device, which is designed to be worn on the wrist, with an arm part which has the basic shape of a loop for looping around the wrist or arm, which has at least one fastener.
  • the closure allows the arm part to be separated or at least extended to such an extent that the carrying device can easily be stripped off or removed.
  • the closure is designed such that the arm part is designed to be detachable from a container for receiving the medicament. More preferably, the arm part is detachably attached to the opposite boundaries of the medicament container.
  • This embodiment offers the advantage that the carrying device can not only be easily removed, but the medication container can also be exchanged. It can thus z. B. for each day a different, pre-filled drug container can be used in the carrying device.
  • the arm part can also be retained or replaced so that, for. B. a higher quality or more aesthetically sophisticated arm part can be used depending on the occasion.
  • a filled medication container can therefore be inserted into the carrying device for each intake period and carried along by the wearer without additional effort for arm parts.
  • only the arm part can be adapted to your needs. With a reduced financial outlay, a higher variability and better support for the regular intake of medication is achieved.
  • An exemplary carrying device 1 comprises an arm part 3 and a medicament container 5.
  • the medicament container 5 and arm part 3 together form a loop 7 of a size that allows the carrying apparatus 1 to be worn on a person's arm, in particular near the wrist.
  • the diameter of the loop 7 is therefore for adults in the range 5-10 cm. Applications for children up to newborns require correspondingly smaller diameters.
  • the arm part 3 is preferably made of flexible material or has a flexible or movable construction, such as a chain or a link belt.
  • the arm part 3 can contain a lock which enables the arm part 3 to be completely separated or just extended in order to expand the diameter of the loop 7 to such an extent that the carrying device can be stripped off.
  • Such closures or extension devices are known to those skilled in the field of jewelry or wristwatches and are therefore not shown in the figures, but a possible arrangement 8 is shown in FIG Fig. 1 indicated.
  • the arm part 3 is connected to the medicament container 5 by means of two connecting devices 9. These connecting devices 9 are preferably designed in such a way that the arm part 3 can be removed from the medicament container 5. This function can also replace the lock mentioned above.
  • the connecting device 9 comprises a receptacle 11 on the side of the medication container 5, which is designed here as a female part of a bayonet or bayonet connection and has a circular cross-section to allow the necessary rotary movement of the male part (see below). Characteristic for this are the two essentially L-shaped grooves 15 in the circumference of the receptacle 11.
  • the ends 9 of the arm part 3 are provided with sleeves 17, in the front end 19 of which a pin 21 protruding on both sides is arranged.
  • the protruding ends of the pin 21 are intended to be inserted into the grooves 15 of the receptacle 11 and to be secured therein by twisting, which results in a secure connection of the arm part 3 to the medicament container 5.
  • the sleeves 17 can be fixedly attached to the ends 16.
  • a rotatable fastening is also conceivable, or the end 16 of the arm part 3 can be equipped directly with the pin 21.
  • the arm part 3 is prevented from rotating in relation to the medicament container 5 by the arm in the loop 7.
  • the medicament container 5 preferably also rests on the arm, so that it can only be rotated with respect to the arm part 3 by overcoming a resistance.
  • Link bracelets and essentially rod-shaped, essentially one-piece arm parts, bent to a predetermined shape and made of a flexible material (plastic), show resistance to twistability.
  • Such a carrying device can be removed by opening the above-mentioned lock located in the arm part, or by loosening one of the connecting devices 9 with an appropriate force.
  • Figure 1 shows a front view of the medicament container 5, which has a rib 23 in its front wall, on the front edge of which a thickening 25 is formed. Complementary to this is on the rear wall 27 of the medication container 5 ( Figure 2 ) a groove 29 is present, at the bottom of which there is a corresponding recess (not shown) complementary to the thickening 25. It is thus possible to connect two carrying devices 1 by pushing the rib 23 of one medicament container 5 into the groove 29 of the other medicament container 5 in order to obtain a carrying apparatus with two medicament containers. In this way it is possible to flexibly adapt the carrying device 1 to the amount of medication to be carried by combining two or more individual carrying devices.
  • One advantage here is that each medication container is part of a carrying device, so that even if the connection between the medication containers is broken, it is ensured that the medication containers remain on the arm of the wearer.
  • FIG. 3 shows the medicament container 5 with the lid 31 open.
  • the medicament container 5 is set up here, two tablets 33 (see FIG Figure 5 ) to record.
  • a displaceable cover 35 is arranged under the cover 31, but above the tablets 33, so that only one of the two tablets 33 is directly accessible. This makes it possible to use only one of the two tablets 33 z. B. can be found by shaking or tilting the drug container.
  • Figures 6 and 7 show a variant of the carrying device 1 in which the medicament container 5 is set up to hold four tablets 39, each of which is encased in a blister pack.
  • Figures 8 to 10 show, in a three-dimensional front view and in a section perpendicular through the plane of the loops 7 and the medicament containers 3, an arrangement 43 of two interconnected carrying devices 1a, 1b as described above.
  • the individual carrying devices are, if necessary, with "a” and "b” marked.
  • the in Figure 8 Carrying device 1 located at the front carried out according to the carrying device described first, specifically with regard to the medicament container 5.
  • the carrying device 1 located at the rear, in FIG Figure 10 on the right is on the other hand according to the alternative Figures 6 and 7 educated. This is clearly visible in the Figure 9 which shows how the medicine containers 5 are connected to one another by partially inserting the rib 23 of the rear medicine container 5a into the groove 29 of the front medicine container 5b.
  • the right container 5 is empty, and the front end 64 of the arm part 3 can be seen in the recess 11.
  • Figures 11-13 show an alternative embodiment of the means for connecting the medicament containers 5.
  • the connection is carried out by a relative movement perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the medicament containers 5, while it was carried out by means of rib 23 and groove 29 in the longitudinal direction of the medicament container.
  • two webs 53 are formed on one side wall 51, which extend essentially from the removal opening 55, that is to say the upper edge 56 of the side wall 51, to the lower edge 59 of the side wall 51.
  • they do not cover this entire distance, but only part of it, e.g. B. at most 80% or at most 60%.
  • keyhole grooves 71 are formed with a T-shaped cross section.
  • the keyhole grooves 71 are shaped in such a way that the structures of web 53 and V-shaped structure 63 can be inserted into them on the front side 51.
  • the V-shaped structures 63 the other way round, that is to say that their legs 65 point towards the removal opening 55. This facilitates the introduction into the T-slots 71.
  • the T-slots 71 when loosening each other there is a Spreading effect for the legs 65, especially if the side walls of the transverse groove of the T-grooves 71 are rough or even toothed.
  • the T-slots 71 it is also conceivable for the T-slots 71 to be open to the removal opening 55 or, in addition to this, to be open to the lower edge 59. In order to achieve precise positioning, i.e.
  • a cover 31 is not shown for reasons of clarity. It is to be attached in such a way that it does not close the upwardly open slots 71 or at least allows access in one position.
  • the cover can have recesses on the rear edge so that it allows the V-shaped structures 63 to be introduced into the T-grooves 71 in the closed state.
  • other measures are also conceivable, e.g. B. two in instead of the removal opening 55 arranged, displaceable covers which can be pushed over one another in order to make one or the other half of the interior of the medicament container 5 accessible.
  • Figure 14 shows three different situations of coupling a front end 19 to a medicament container 5 as a prototype.
  • Figure 14a shows the end 19 still spaced from the side wall 77 to which the end 19 is to be coupled.
  • the pin 21 is already brought into the position that allows it to be inserted into the openings 79 of the grooves 15 (see FIG Figure 4 ) of the female part of the bayonet catch.
  • Figure 14b the end 19 is inserted into the receptacle 11, but still in the rotated position according to FIG Figure 14a .
  • Figure 14c the end is finally rotated by 90 °, clockwise in the figure, as a result of which the pin 21 (not visible here) is rotated towards the end of the groove 15 and strikes against this end.
