  • the plugs 39 are inserted into the injection bottles 49 until the body portions 329 are arranged in the associated injection bottles 49 and the head portions 319 rest on the edges of the openings of the injection bottles 49.
  • the vial lock holder 69 and the vial holder 59 are further moved towards each other, so that the closure caps 79 are pressed onto the respectively associated injection bottles 49.
  • the closure caps 79 are designed so that they crimp by force in the direction of the injection bottles 49 with the injection bottles and thus securely close them.
  • the vial lock holder 69 and the vial holder 59 are again separated from each other. The filled and securely closed injection bottles 49 are then removed.
  • a plurality of injection bottles 49 can be provided in a few simple steps simultaneously with a stopper 39, crimped with a cap 79 and securely closed.
  • the entire closure process described can also be carried out relatively easily under aseptic conditions, for example in a lyophilizer.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un emballage d'ensemble (10; 20) pour l'emballage stérile d'une pluralité de flacons (40) ou d'une pluralité de fermetures de flacons (30) comprenant un film de réception (110; 20), qui présente une pluralité de cavités (1110; 210) dans chacune desquelles est disposé(e) l'un de la pluralité de flacons (40) ou l'une de la pluralité de fermetures de flacons (30). L'emballage d'ensemble (10; 20) permet que la pluralité de flacons (40) ou de fermetures de flacons (30) soit commercialisée et/ou utilisée de façon stérilisée, de sorte qu'un guidage de processus simple est possible lors du remplissage et de la fermeture aseptiques des flacons. Par exemple, l'étape de processus longue du lavage et éventuellement de la stérilisation peut être supprimée ou tout du moins simplifiée. De même certaines étapes du processus telles que par exemple le remplissage de gaz peuvent être simplifiées en supplément, accélérées et éventuellement automatisées par l'agencement prédéfini des flacons (40) et/ou des fermetures de flacons (30). L'emballage d'ensemble (10; 20) selon l'invention permet donc un remplissage et une fermeture aseptiques, relativement efficaces et avantageux des flacons (40).
