Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an upgraded bottle for fluid products, particularly pharmaceutical, medicinal or cosmetic products.
  • Plastic bottles are known that are used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries to package one or more doses of fluid, liquid or pasty products and which are essentially made up of a containing body for containing the product which, at one end, extends in a neck, at the top of which a product dispensing mouth is defined; the dispensing mouth is closed by a tearable membrane.
  • the end of the containing body opposite the neck is open to allow, during bottle packaging, the introduction of the product into the containing body, after which this is closed, for example, by sealing.
  • a cap is fitted, from the ceiling of which a membrane perforating element extends internally.
  • a retention ring On the inner side surface of the cap a retention ring is obtained which, in bottle packaging closed configuration, is engaged by triggering in a corresponding ring-shaped groove defined on the outer side surface of the neck, so as to withhold the perforating element at a height above that of the membrane that closes the dispensing mouth.
  • the cap is fitted onto the neck of the containing body until the retention ring disengages from the corresponding groove and the perforating element tears the membrane and opens the dispensing mouth, after which the cap is removed from the neck to allow product dispensing.
  • the containing body has a pair of grip flaps that extend, in a diametrically opposite direction the one to the other, from its outer side surface.
  • the known bottles can be produced in single units or interlinked with one another in series (strips); in this latter case the grip flaps of the containing bodies of two successive bottles are temporarily joined together along pre-breakage lines.
  • the known bottles are without safety means suitable for preventing, or at least making less easy, the opening of the dispensing mouth and the removal of the cap by children, who could swallow the product inside the bottles in an incorrect way, with obvious risk for their health.
  • Such bottles furthermore, do not show, in a clear and immediately perceivable way, any tampering and/or having already been opened including involuntarily, and do not ensure the integrity and the sterility of the product they contain.
  • bottles comprising a pair of seal flaps that protrude from the containing body in diametrically opposite directions, located in between the grip flaps and the cap and associated, removable by tearing, with the body, with the grip flaps or with the cap along respective weakened areas.
  • the bottles are however without the above-mentioned safety means suitable for preventing, or at least making opening by children less easy.
  • a different type of bottles for fluid products is made in a single body piece in which, that is, the product containing body is formed together with closing means in a single body without any interruption whatsoever.
  • the closing means are connected to the body by means of deformable and breakable elements that act as safety seals; deformations and/or breakages of the above elements are signs of tampering.
  • the main aim of the present invention is to provide an upgraded bottle for fluid products, particularly pharmaceutical, medicinal or cosmetic products, that provides minimum safety requirements suitable for preventing or in any case restricting the potentially harmful use of the products contained in it.
  • Another object of the present invention is to ensure the integrity and the sterility of the products packed inside the bottles.
  • Another object of the invention is to make it possible to see that the bottles have been opened, in a clear and immediate way.
  • Another object of the invention is to cater for the above aims with a simple structure, of relatively practical implementation, safe to use and with effective operation, as well as having a relatively low cost.
