Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging system for packaging and dispensing medical caps. It also relates to a method for packaging medical caps.
  • the invention relates more particularly to the packaging, with a view to their distribution, of caps composed of a cap and a stopper intended to close medical bottles.
  • Such caps are generally delivered in bulk and poured into a vibrating bowl, or simply placed in a tray, to then be placed, by hand or automatically by a machine, one by one on a bottle to close it.
  • EP2753550 seeks more particularly to reduce the contact surface between the medical elements and the surface of a plate to reduce the friction zones.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a tray as well as a packaging system which distinguishes itself from and improves this state of the art.
  • FIG. 1 represents a packaging system according to the invention.
  • the medical caps 50 are here formed of a cap 51 surmounting a shutter 52. More particularly, the shutter 52 is formed in the cavity delimited by the cap 51.
  • the cap 51 makes it possible to manipulate the cap 50 to close the opening of a container through the shutter 52 without touching the latter. This limits the risk of contaminating the shutter 52 during the handling of the stopper 50 and therefore the risks of contaminating the container.
  • a detailed description of such plugs is for example available in the document FR2950865 .
  • the cap 51 is composed of a head 51a, advantageously planar, as well as a side wall 51b extending axially from the periphery of the head 51a to delimit the cavity in which the shutter 52 is arranged.
  • a packaging system 100 comprises a tank 10, at least one plate 20 provided with housings 21, as well as a porous cover 40 arranged on the opening of the tank 10 to close it.
  • the tank 10 can comprise a plurality of trays 20, all of which are identical to one another. These trays 20 thus form a stack, each tray 20 being stacked on top of each other parallel to the bottom 10a of the tank 10.
  • the tank 10 containing the trays 20, and closed by the porous seal 40 is intended to be placed in at least one airtight bag (and generally two of these bags) in which the air has been evacuated to place the assembly under vacuum.
  • Each of the trays 20 accommodates a plurality of medical plugs 50 stored individually in one of the housings 21 of the tray 20 without any contact being possible between them.
  • the shape and volume of the housings 21 will be adapted so that they can accommodate the medical plug 50 in question.
  • the tank 10 is a hollow packaging element intended to receive the trays 20 in which the medical plugs 50 are arranged.
  • the tank 10 comprises an opening, a bottom 10a and a peripheral wall 10b thus delimiting its general shape.
  • the peripheral wall 10b can be provided with a shoulder allowing the handling of the tank 10, in particular by automatic equipment.
  • tank 10 has a parallelepipedal shape to optimize the space required to store a given number of medical plugs 50.
  • the dimensions of tank 10 are chosen according to the number of medical plugs 50 that it is desired to package. These dimensions may comply with a norm or a standard so as to facilitate its use on an industrial scale.
  • the height of the tank is chosen and/or adapted according to the number of trays 20 and/or the shape of the plugs 50 to be accommodated.
  • the tank 10 can be formed of a plastic material, for example based on polypropylene, amorphous polyethylene terephthalate, or a styrenic polymer such as polystyrene.
  • FIG. 1 represents a packaging system 100, in accordance with the invention, in which a stack of trays 20 is arranged in the tank 10.
  • Each tray 20 comprises an upper face 20a and a lower face 20b.
  • the upper face 20a is provided with a plurality of housings 21 each intended to receive and wedge a single medical plug 50 in order to avoid any contact between two of these plugs 50.
  • the housings 21 are typically arranged in rows on the upper face 20a of the plate 20 and here take the form of hollows 21.
  • the lower face 20b of the plate 20 is advantageously flat to facilitate its pressing against the caps 50, and more particularly against the head 51a of the caps 51, of an underlying plate of the stack of plates.
  • the lower face 20b of the plate 20 could, similar to the upper face 20a, be provided with a plurality of housings to better limit the movements of the medical plugs 50.
  • the underside 20b of the plate intended to be placed against the bottom of the tank 10 which will be called “lower plate 20'”
  • the bottom 10a of the tank 10 can be provided with centering elements, such as bosses, which can fit onto the reliefs of the lower plate 20'.
  • the lower plate 20' (as well as the entire stack of plates) is thus immobilized in the tank 10, the friction between the plate 20' and the tank 10 is limited and the generation of particles is thus avoided.
  • the trays 20 can be made of a plastic material, for example based on polypropylene or thermoplastic elastomer.
  • the material of the plate 20 has a lower hardness than that of the plugs 50.
  • the porous cover 40 is intended to be sealed, for example by plastic welding, on the upper edges of the wall 10b of the tank 10, once the latter has been filled with the trays 20 carrying the medical plugs 50.
  • porous operculum aims to preserve the cleanliness of the medical caps 50 and prevent the introduction of particles into the tank 10.
  • the air porosity of the cover 50 makes it possible to extract the air from the tank, during a following step of putting under empty. It can for example be made of Tyvek ® , a material commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry.
  • a first plate 20', the lower plate 20' of the stack, is placed on the bottom 10a of the tank 10.
  • Medical plugs 50 are then or previously placed in the housings 21 of the first plate 20'.
  • the medical caps 50 are arranged so that the cap 51 delimits with the upper surface 20a of the tray a closed compartment 53 to individually isolate the obturator 52 and protect it from any particulate contamination that could be generated within the packaging system 100
  • the medical plug 50 is here arranged so that the free end of the side wall 51b is in contact with the bottom of the housing 21.
  • a second plate 20 is placed in the tank 10, the lower face 20b of the second plate bearing on the head 51a of the caps 51 of the medical plugs 50 placed in the housings 21 of the first plate. Medical caps 50 are placed in each housing 21 of the second plate 20, before or after this operation. This is repeated as many times as there are plates 20 to be placed in tank 10.
  • the porous cover 40 is then placed on the tank 10 to close it and then made integral with the upper edges of the wall 10b of the tank 10.
  • the tank 10 the opening of which has been closed by the porous cover 40, is placed in at least one airtight bag (and preferably two bags for safety reasons), and the vacuum is carried out in this bag before sealing it hermetically.
  • Putting the assembly under vacuum makes it possible to block the various components of the assembly 100 vertically, by pressing the porous cover 40 against the plugs 50 of the upper plate. Vacuuming also makes it possible to press the caps 50 against the upper surface 20a of the plate, on which they are placed, to form hermetic compartments 53 in which each shutter 52 is individually placed. Vacuuming also makes it possible to block horizontally the various components of the assembly 100 by deforming the peripheral wall 10b of the tank 10 to press it against the edge of the plates 20. The vacuum thus makes it possible to limit the friction between the various elements of the assembly 100 and therefore the generation of particles by friction by blocking their vertical and horizontal movement.
  • the tank 10 containing the stack of trays 20 is first extracted from the bag.
  • the lid 40 is then removed to expose the medical caps 50.
  • the medical plugs 50 can then be removed individually or row by row, manually and/or automatically by a machine. Once the board forming the upper tray of the stack emptied of its medical plugs 50, the latter is also removed to expose the medical plugs of the underlying tray. These operations are repeated until all the medical plugs 50 stored in the tank 10 have been removed.
