Description

{STAR WHEEL TYPED CAPPING APPARATUS}

The present invention relates to a capping device, and more particularly, to a capping device capable of stably capping a cap at an upper end of a container such as a vial for storing a sample to be used for a test, Wheel capping device.

In general, a vial, which is a container for storing a drug or a sample to be used for a test, is capped with an aluminum cap at an upper end of the bottle, and a bottle containing liquid is sealed by capping an upper end of the bottle with an aluminum screw cap.

For example, a vial is a container for storing various contents such as an injection solution, a powdered injection, a contact lens, etc., which must be kept sterilized. The vial is a container for preventing leakage and deterioration of stored contents, And it can be safely stored and transported. It is also produced in medium and large sizes such as muscle relaxants, anesthetics, antibiotics, etc. for small packaging or as a solution or intravenous injection.

For example, if you look at how to use the vial, you can open the plastic cap of the vial, pour the vial's rubber with the needle of the syringe, inject the solution such as saline, mix the antimicrobial agent well, take the mixture through the needle of the syringe, It is used as it is.

Referring to FIG. 1, the vial 1 having a flip-off type cap structure is of the same type as a one-touch can, and is formed of a sterile, antibacterial glass material or a plastic material which has passed through a predetermined test method of a medicine container, And a vial 2 for storing contents. At the inlet 3 of the vial 2 is a sterile, antimicrobial rubber teflon material having a cap like a diaphragm inserted in the inside diameter. A sleeve 4 made of silver or aluminum is clamped around the inlet 3 of the vial 2 so as not to detach the cap from the vial 2. The plastic cap 5 is attached to the upper surface of the sleeve 4 Lt; / RTI >

In addition, a vial having a tear-off type cap structure is provided with a cut line on the surface of the sleeve so that the sleeve can be detached from the mouth of the vial, thereby forming a cutout portion. When the plastic cap is pulled upward at an angle, the clamped sleeve is torn along the cutting line around the inlet of the vial, and the cap is peeled off, and the cap is exposed to the outside, so that the cap can be removed from the mouth of the vial.

In the process of producing such a vial, a cap is sealed to an inlet of a container, and a vial capping device used therefor is disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2 of the prior art.

Patent Document 1 discloses a structure for applying a sealing material (sleeve) with a thin material to an open top of an upright container provided by a conveyor having a holder for a plurality of containers, A sealing device comprising a supply part for advancing a sealing material, a sealing part for sealing a sleeve, and a discharge part for discharging a vial having a sealed state, wherein a rail is formed in an upper part and a lower part of a central rotary shaft part, And a pressing arm for moving the pressing arm and the table, wherein the pressing arm comprises a forming mold finger bundle formed by covering the vial with a cap so as to move and moving, and a buffer configured to be symmetrical with the forming mold finger bundle A vial cap configured to seal the vial cap while pressurizing and moving on the table The sealing device is disclosed.
