Definitions

  • the present invention relates to apparatus and methods of packaging and dispensing items, and more specifically, the present invention is directed to a child-resistant package including a blister pack for dispensing items.
  • blister packaging it is well known to use blister packaging to store and deliver items. Such items may include pharmaceutical tablets, pills, and capsules.
  • Conventional blister packages include a blister tray that is typically a thermo- formed plastic sheet having a plurality of blister cells or depressions formed therein. Typically, after the items are placed in the cells, the items are retained and protected in the respective cells by securing a backing sheet comprising foil, plastic, or paperboard to the back of the tray to seal the cells. In other types of conventional blister packages the contents are placed in substantially puncture proof foil containers that are then covered with foil or paperboard backing.
  • the foil backing is thin enough to be either punctured mechanically or ruptured by pressing the blister so that the enclosed item penetrates the foil.
  • gates are provided in the backing panel that covers the opening of the blister cells. In practice, each gate is deformed or manipulated so that it ruptures or partially separates from the surrounding paperboard, allowing the item within the blister cell to be pushed through the gate.
  • the conventional blister packages are suitable for some applications, there are several design deficiencies.
  • the conventional blister packages provide removal of the items from the blister cells, but offer very little child resistance.
  • the package be senior friendly, that is, the package permits easy withdrawal of items from the package by an intended user requiring minimum manipulation even where a user's manual dexterity and strength is reduced. Accordingly, there remains in the art a need for apparatus and methods of blister packaging and dispensing items where child resistance is significant and can be easily increased, while the package remains senior friendly.
  • the present invention overcomes the deficiencies of the known art and the problems that remain unsolved by providing a child-resistant package that is inexpensive, easy to fabricate, and can be used with conventional blister packs.

Une plaquette à alvéoles (25) est placée entre la surface frontale (12) et la surface centrale (16) de sorte que chaque alvéole (25a) est placée dans l’ouverture d'alvéole qui lui correspond (22). Lors de l’assemblage, les surfaces centrale (16) et arrière (14) sont pliées de manière à ce que chaque passage (42) et chaque bande à déchirer (30) s'aligne à l'alvéole respective (25a) et que chaque languette à tirer (32) et languette digitale (44) s'aligne à l'ouverture digitale leur correspondant (24a). Les surfaces et éléments respectifs font adhérence à l’exception des bandes à déchirer (30) et des passages (42). Pour retirer un comprimé (25b) d’une alvéole (25a), on appuie sur la languette à tirer (32) de la surface (14), on pèle la bande à déchirer (30) de la surface arrière (14) et de la pression est appliquée pour forcer le comprimé (25b) par la pellicule de support de la plaquette alvéolaire (25) et du passage ouvert (42).
