Description

Perfect case for packaging Homeopathic medicines

Introduction

The medicine container case Homeopathic consists of a portable element for the tidy storage of multiple containers that normally use patients who prefer and continue treatment with this type of medication

Sector of the technique to which the invention relates

The invention presented affects the Sector of Current Needs of Life and specifically to the chapter of Health, Protection, Entertainment in relation to Medical Sciences directly affecting the industrial and commercial sector of manufacture of accessories for pharmacies and sanitary uses.

Background of the invention

Medicine cases are accessories which are normally held in private homes, clinics, health care centers, etc. in order to attend possible needs of medicines taken with or without a prescription medical The most normal thing is to have first aid kits where you have all the necessary elements for first urgencies.

It is also normal to have small cabinets or drawers where medicines that are consumed in a way are stored usual as vitamins, ointments, pain relievers etc.

For patients who should be treated with medications in a more continuous or scheduled way, there are small cases, boxes, or even programmable devices, in addition to the classic pillboxes that are replenished daily for Always carry the necessary medicines. But what is this usual for traditional medicines, it is not applicable to the homeopathy.

The case of patients who follow treatments with homeopathic products it is special because homeopathy demands continuous and periodic intake of a large number of products distinct in the form of "granules" or "globules" so It is usual to have cases or boxes that are uncomfortable because their size or make vision and location of medicine difficult that must be taken at all times, which forces to open various compartments with zippers, covers or protectors diverse.

Homeopathic medicine, which is gaining adherents from day to day, and that is already sold in all pharmacies, it based on a theory that holds that the same symptoms it causes a toxic substance in a healthy person can be cured by a remedy prepared with the same toxic substance, following the principle stated as "the similar is cured with the similar". Recall in some ways to the prevention of diseases caused by vaccination of traditional medicine.

The good results achieved by applying the called "remedies" depending on the "symptoms" make that more and more the number of patients that they follow this type of treatment that presents, however, the inconvenient of needing a wide range of products.

To justify this statement we can say that not only should they be taken quite frequently but, for example, to treat a simple cough a different medication can be applied depending on the type of cough or even according to the patient's own nature and the same can be said of any other ailment To this we must add that the same medicine can be supplied with different concentrations or "potencies" according to the jargon used by homeopaths. That is, as a kit for this type of patient, especially if they must move or travel with a certain frequency,
It is advisable to use portable items of great capacity to have all the necessary medications.

This aspect is what motivated the same inventor of this document to write the utility model with number Publication ES 1 069 245 developing a device that, being portable, it improved the characteristics of preexisting

This document provides improvements and possible alternatives derived from the investigation based on the Same general idea. The explanation of the invention describes the common aspects of the model ES 1 069 245 and then the New aspects

Explanation of the invention.

The present invention relates to a case for storage and easy transport of containers with homeopathic medicines consisting of a plastic sheet flexible, transparent or even translucent, whenever you can read through, basically square or rectangular It contains a series of compartments that can support the introduction inside the usual containers of Homeopathic medicines

The aforementioned compartments are arranged so that in each modular sheet they are grouped into several rows and columns so that each module can house a number of containers equal to the product of the number of rows by that of columns

The compartments can be formed by simple cuts made on the sheet or by overlapping two sheets identical properly sewn or welded leaving the openings necessary to introduce the containers with ease.

Due to the exposed characteristics and the type of material, it is understood that, on the one hand, the perfect sorting of stored containers but, in addition, it is possible to direct reading of the label of each container on both sides given The transparency of the material.

As an additional advantage to the invention that It is proposed, the author conceives it with the possibility of that one of the edges or edges of the sheet incorporates a narrow band type "velcro®" or similar and another band thereof material and "distinct sign" on the opposite edge with which enables the union of successive sheets doubling, tripling, etc. The capacity of the initial case.

When a module like the ones you want transport without discomfort, the most comfortable is to roll it on itself same with which the occupied space is very small. It is obvious that if new modules have been added to the original, the volume of the Roll formed progressively increases.

Another possibility conceived by the inventor is arrange a sheet over another as if it were the sheets of a book or a Carpesan notebook.

The sheets of each module can be manufactured in different sizes to meet the full range of needs particular of each patient and given its low price you can think even in cutting rows or full columns of sheets already available for each patient to prepare the case to their measure.

The new aspects are:

The material of the top sheet is silicone transparent while the bottom sheet can be used the same material, or opaque plastic, to deprive the vision of the content or textile. The unions of both plates, in all cases, can be by sewing or any other similar system.

To optimize the space in the case, the Housing dimension fits the most common container size in homeopathy logically admitting other smaller containers. When looking for a specific substance in the case, when the text of the package is hidden because of an incorrect introduction or movement due to case manipulation, the opening of the cell is always invented in an open way, not have closures, to allow the container to rotate with the fingers without removing it or opening any closure. The cell opening is also invented so that, always being open for not having closures, the container does not leave its site if not expressly extracted.

Two systems of manufacturing to give a previous volume to the rooms, getting a more comfortable introduction, avoiding the tendency to get out that has the container and controlling the wrinkles that are produced by the adaptation of flat sheets to the volume of the packaging These are:

to)

Previous hot deformation of a of the two sheets or both to the size and shape of the container and subsequent welding or joining.

b)

Adaptation of one of the two plates or both to the size of the bottle by forming undulations.

In the latter case then proceed to the welding or sewing parallel to them forming A few pockets. After welding or cross sewing divide and close the ends of the poles perpendicular to these. This described process can be done with the canute is parallel to the cylinder or container, or sizing the undulation perpendicular to the cylinder or container. That is, manufacture generating undulations in rows or columns.

To facilitate roll stability during its transport and / or storage, are described in this document several solutions of closures of great simplicity that increase the functionality of the invention with a minimum additional cost.

In all cases there is also a kind of cardholder that allows the introduction of a document with the general list of homeopathic products contained and the medical purpose of each of them.

We will move on to the description and presentation of the figures that clearly show the essence of the invention

Brief description of the figures

Five schematic figures are included that are considered sufficient for the understanding of this invention. They have the following meaning:

Figure one

This figure is schematically represented, in three orthogonal views, the case object of the invention in the hypothesis of having three rows and eight columns of accommodation So the capacity of each module is twenty-four containers. The figure considers the case that all accommodations They are busy with their corresponding medicine container. It has been noted the following:

Figure 2

This figure represents the possibility of attaching two cases, one after the other thanks to the existence of the connectable flaps existing at the ends of each sheet case. The m- type connectable flap of one case is coupled with the n- type connectable flap of the following. The same elements of the previous figure have been indicated.

Figure 3

This figure shows two views of a case; The bottom one (3a) is a view of the front of the case and the top one (3b) is the view from the back. In these schematic views, alternatives are shown in which case closure systems are detailed when rolled on itself. Thus we can see that in the strips that separate adjacent rows of packages have been included two strips of connectable or adhesive flap type n (4.2) that have a series of perforations that affect both the flaps and the sheets of the case. In addition, two hooks attached to the case with classic elastic bands are included and the presence of a kind of card holder whose function is to insert a sheet with the detail of the medicine contained in each container and its curative purpose is also observed in the view (3b) .

Figure 6

This figure represents (6.1), (6.2) and (6.3), three of the possibilities to form accommodation in the manufacture of the case creating a previous volume by means of succession of undulations folds and welds in the sheets. In the three figures are drawn containers (5) inserted in the housings for a better understanding of the manufacturing process. Being (e-e), (f-f) and (g-g) cross sections at undulations of the top or front sheet (1.2) of the case (1) and (e1-e1), (f1-f1) and (g1-g1) cross sections along the line heat welded (3). In figures (6.1) and (6.2) the undulations of the top or front sheet (1.2) of the case (1) are formed parallel to the container (5). In figure (6.3) the undulations of the top or front sheet (1.2) of the case (1) are formed perpendicular to the container (5).

Description of a preferred embodiment

Case for medication containers Homeopathic (1) (Figs. 1 to 6) whose function is to store from one orderly form the various medications prescribed to patients that embrace homeopathic treatments and that consists of a grouping of unit housings (2) that are formed by superposition of two sheets, one lower (1.1) and one higher (1.2). In the basic alternative the bottom sheet (1.1) is of a single piece and has a square or rectangular shape. Top sheet (1.2) can be identical to the previous one or it can be formed by two, three or more equal pieces.

In the event that the top sheet (1.2) equal to the lower one (1.1) are placed superimposed and perfectly matched to proceed to generate a series of heat-welded lines (3) as shown in (Fig. 1). Previously on the top sheet (1.2) a series of horizontal cuts that will serve to form the openings or tickets of each accommodation (2). In this way they are constituted a series of individual accommodations (2) aligned in rows and columns that, in the case of (Fig. 1), form three rows and eight columns with a total of twenty four available housings (2) in each of which one can insert a container (5) for storage in the case (1).

The inventor conceives the preparation of a series of case models with more or less rows or columns depending on of the needs that arise or even depending on the container size (5) although today said size is practically standardized in different countries.

In the case that the top sheet (1.2) is composed of several pieces, the single observation of figure 1 already allows you to intuit the shape of each piece that will have the same width of the lower sheet (1.1) and a height slightly lower than the of the containers (5) to be stored. Is understood easily so many pieces will be needed for the sheet top (1.2) as rows should have the case (1). One time positioned where appropriate will proceed to form the lines heat-welded (3).

When the case (1) is in use, whether it is with all accommodations (2) occupied with the corresponding Packaging (5), as if it is only partially occupied, it is possible identify the contents of each package (5) by reading directly the labels (6) because the lower (1.1) and upper (1.2) sheets of according to the preferred embodiment of the inventor, they are transparent or susceptible to admit reading through it. In these conditions any label (6) of any container (5) is readable from the outside in front or behind the case (one).

To facilitate the portability of the case (1) we proceed to roll it on itself as it is represented in the (Fig. 4) whereby the volume occupied is reduced and very manageable, being able to ensure closure with tape devices, elastic band or any other.

Another forecast taken into account by the inventor is the possibility of joining two or more case modules (1) to increase the storage capacity of containers (5). For this, each case (1) is provided with a type m (4.1) connectable flap at one of its ends and another type n (4.2) connectable flap on the opposite end. This type of flaps are those that are joined by simple approximation of those of different types m (4.1) and n (4.2) with the particularity that they allow their separation at will by pulling properly in opposite directions.

It is understood that when it has been decided to join two cases (1) to double the storage capacity of packaging (5), it is also possible to roll the whole although it is evident that this increases the diameter progressively of the circumscribed circumference.

Another alternative contemplated by the author of the invention that concerns us is the possibility of grouping several cases (1) as a binding in folders of the Carpesan type for which the connectable flap type m (4.1) has two, four or any other number of perforations (7) so that they fit in the corresponding rings of the Carpesan folder. The grouping of units by way of binding can also be done by adhesion on the two sides of the flap type m .

For the formation of accommodation (2) the inventor adds a possible distribution with variable distances in order to optimize the volume of the device in its position rolled up.

The top sheet (1.2) of the case (1), Made of plastic or flexible silicone sheet will always be transparent or translucent enough to allow reading through it can also be colored in any tone. For the bottom sheet (1.1) the same material can be used of the top sheet (1.2) or a colored, opaque plastic material or textile

It is also contemplated by the inventor the possibility that the case (1) is of a single sheet, the bottom (1.1) in which case it could be of any material flexible, including textile and clamping system Packaging (5) could be made of cord or elastic band taking care that the label (6) of each container is always visible (5).

Other preferred embodiments

It should be noted that to optimize space in the case (1), the cell dimension adjusts to the size of the container (5) more common in homeopathy logically admitting others smaller containers.

It happens sometimes that the text written in the label (6) of the package (5) is hidden because of an incorrect introduction or movement due to case manipulation; Therefore, as we will now see, access to accommodation is invented generic (2) always open to allow rotation of the container (5) with fingers without removing or opening no closing

The entrance to the housing (2) is invented also so that, being always open, the container (5) is not Leave your site if it is not expressly extracted.

Therefore, to improve the basic option, the inventor, taking into account the defects detected in the initial prototypes, conceive the preparation of the cases with Improved housings that allow easy rotation of the containers with  fingers and also prevent their accidental fall. So, as I know represented in (Fig. 5), plans to perfect the design shown in lines (a) and (b) by those shown in lines (c) and (d). In (c) the housing (2.2), which we have called the flap type, it has its opening in the upper lateral part with which ensures the stability of the container (5) once introduced. the same result is achieved with the mouthpiece solution (2.3), shown in (d), where the opening has a circular shape that it also prevents the container from falling (5) when it has been totally introduced the upper lip of the opening attached to the container (5) butt over its cap. In both cases it is possible handle the container (5) by rotating it without removing it of your accommodation.

Accommodation generation (2) through previous hot formation of the top sheet (1.2) or both sheets to measure and shape of the container (5) and later welding or bonding

Accommodation generation (2) through adaptation of one or both upper and lower sheets (1.2) and (1.1), to the size of the container (5) by forming undulations. Subsequent realization of parallel welded lines (3) to these forming a few rods. After welding or sewing cross divide and close the ends of the poles perpendicular to these. This described process can be performed provided that the pipe is parallel to the cylinder or container, or sizing the undulation perpendicular to the cylinder or container. Is that is, to produce generating undulations in rows or in columns.

With regard to the closure mode in the rolled position, the inventor conceives a significant improvement by adding two connectable flaps type n (4.2) along the case (1) in the strips that separate the horizontal rows of containers (5) as shown in (Fig. 3). Thus, when the case is rolled (Fig. 4), whatever the diameter of the roll, the flap type m (4.1) always has the possibility of adhering to the longitudinal flaps of type n (4.2).

As a complementary means for greater security at closing, or as a single alternative solution, it can be enough to provide the case (1) with two hooks (8) with their corresponding rubbers (9) anchored to the edge of the case (1) such as shown in (Fig. 3). Thus, by winding it on itself, it will be possible to fit the hook in any of the multiple perforations (7) as schematized in (Fig. 4).

Other splice and closure systems are conceived, not represented, based on "click" solutions, clips, automatic, square brackets, adhesives combined with hooks, etc.

Finally, the inventor considers it very suitable add somewhere in the case (1), as outlined in la (Fig. 3), a kind of bag or card holder (10) where you can enter a document with the medication index contained in the packages (5) and their respective effects Healing

It is not considered necessary to make the content of this description for a subject matter expert can understand its scope and the advantages derived from the invention, as well as develop and implement the object of the same.

However, it should be understood that the invention has been described according to a preferred embodiment thereof, so which may be subject to change without implying any alteration of the basis of said invention, being able to affect such modifications to the shape, size and / or Manufacturing materials; that is, the terms in which it has remained Exposed this preferred description of the invention, should be always taken with a broad and non-limiting nature.
