This invention relates to a package comprising one or more patches. The present invention relates to a package comprising one or more patches. contains one or more patches, each provided with a wound pad with an adhesive area with removable protective films on each side.

In known patches, i.e. in so-called quick-release bandages, it is known to have a strip-shaped flap and an adhesive layer on each side of the wound pad located thereon. Until use, these adhesive layers are protected by a protective film which is intended to be removed from the adhesive layers before use. Pulling out these protective films is not straightforward and usually requires the use of both hands. In addition, there is a risk that the wound surface will become irritated when the patch is applied, as the wound pad is usually pressed against the wound first, after which both protective films are removed by pulling 2,59533 away from the wound surface. In addition, there is a considerable risk that the wound pad will not be positioned correctly relative to the wound surface.

It has now proved possible to eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages according to the invention by placing the individual patches flat in their own outer cover, the other end of the patch protruding from the opening, and the protective film covering the adhesive mass closest to the closed end of the outer cover. wound pad and is then folded back 180 ° C at its opposite end from the adhesive mass region to the adhesive mass region, and that the back folded end is attached to the inner wall of the outer cover.

According to a suitable embodiment, the rearwardly folded end of the protective film is provided with protruding parts projecting laterally and fixed to the inner walls of the outer cover.

According to the invention, it is preferred that the transverse fastening strip, which is fastened at its ends to the individual outer covers, is adapted to cover the rearwardly folded end of the protective film, to which it is at least partially fixedly connected.

According to a preferred embodiment, the package in which the outer coverings, each containing its own patch, is made in one piece to form an assembly package and is characterized in that the fastening strip runs endlessly in the assembly package.

The invention is described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which:

Figure 1 shows a plan view of a multi-patch package with packaging pockets, each containing a patch.

Figure 2 shows a perspective view of a patch according to the invention with part of the adhesive mass area of the patch exposed.

Figure 3 shows a perspective view of a patch partially pulled out of a package pocket.

Figure 4 shows a perspective view of a suitable outer package in which the packaging pockets shown in Figure 1 are placed.

The multi-patch package shown in Figure 1 comprises patches 2 located side by side in respective packaging spaces 1. The different packaging spaces 1 can be separated from each other along common side edges 3. For this purpose, the side edge 3 can have 59533 routings, cuts, etc. in a known manner. The different packaging spaces 1 then preferably consist of two superimposed uniform strips 4, 5 which are e.g. plastic, end-to-end, e.g. COSIL® paper, aluminum or the like and which are joined together to form pockets by gluing, welding or, depending on the choice of material, in another suitable manner in the region along their two opposite side constraints 6, 7 and bottom constraints 8. Thus, adjacent, separable packaging pockets 1 are formed, all of which have an open end 9. The patches 2 can be placed in corresponding pockets 1 during the manufacture of a package containing several patches, so that the patches 2 can easily be placed between the uniform strips 4, 5 before they are joined together. . The patches 2 are then oriented so that their other end 10 protrudes somewhat from the finished packaging space and that the opposite end 11 is located at a small distance from the lower edge 8 of each packaging space.

In the embodiment shown in the figures, the patches 2 usually consist of a strip-shaped carrier 12 with approximately in the middle a wound pad 15 with adhesive mass areas 13, 14 on both sides. These areas 13, 14 are protected in the usual way by protective films 16, 17 which are removed before use. are overlapping above the wound pad 15, so that this too is protected.

In order to provide a forced control of at least one of the two adhesive mass regions 13, 14 of the patch 2, in this case the region 14, a strip of material 18 is attached as an attachment device to the edge regions 6, 7 of the strip 4 extending over the entire width of the patch 2. , and which is at least partially connected on its side facing the patch to the protective film 16 covering the adhesive area 14. In this case, it is expedient for the end 16a of the protective film 16 projecting over the wound pad 15 to be folded twice along the fold line 19, so that the free end edge 20 of the protective film 16 is folded towards the adhesive mass region 14 and the with. Attachment of the contacting sides of the strip 18 and the protective film 16a can be achieved by gluing, welding together, spot welding or the like.

Figure 3 clearly shows what happens when the patch 2 is pulled out of the package 1. Since the folded end 16a of the protective film 16 is fixedly connected to the fixed strip 18, the film 16 is forcibly removed from the adhesive mass region 14 when the patch 2 is pulled out of the package. . Thereafter, the patch 2, in which the adhesive mass region 14 thus exposed, can be applied. to the object, after which, when the protective film 17 is further pulled, which film then still covers the adhesive mass area 13, this also becomes removed from the patch 2, while the patch becomes stretched and can thus simply be gradually applied to the skin.

The strip 18 in the form of an endless strip of material can be placed as described simply in connection with the manufacture of the package, whereby such a strip of material can be continuously placed between two strips of material 4, 5 and fastened to the edge areas of the strip 4 during side welding 6, 7.

Of course, within the scope of the invention, the fastening device shown in the form of a strip 18 can be shaped in many different ways with essentially the same operation. In this way, the strip 18 can, for example, be completely omitted if the pull-off protective film is then fastened against the contacting part of the strip 5.

In addition, for example, the end 16a of the protective film 16 may have protruding parts which can be fastened directly against one inner side of the strips of material 4, 5.

According to an alternative embodiment of the invention, the patch 2 does not necessarily have to be placed in the pocket of the two strips of substance 4, 5, but can be placed on a base which may e.g. have the same shape as the rectangular part of the packaging space shown in Figure 2. In this case, the strip 18 shown in Fig. 2 can be used, or, for example, the slightly protruding part of the removable protective film can be attached directly to the base as described above.

As mentioned above, the invention is also not limited to the use described above, although the application of the invention in this particular field provides considerable advantages. Thus, the invention can in principle be applied for the rapid disclosure of adhesive mass areas in many fields, e.g. for revealing adhesive mass areas of different tape models, adhesive bandages and the like.

Figure 4 shows a suitable outer package in which a suitable number of packaging pockets 1 are placed, each containing a patch 2. Said packaging pocket strips or sheets are then attached at their end restraints 21 away from the open ends of the packaging pockets 2 to the wrapper 22 between the lower bottom fold 23, 24. This fastening can be done in many ways, e.g. by means of fastening clamps 25, glue or the like. This match-like outer package can be closed by means of a front wrapping strip 26, the lower boundary edge 27 of which is inserted between the strip 23 and the first row of patches to lock the strip 26 in a known manner.
