- the invention relates to a set of storage and controlled distribution of solid products packaged in bulk, to be preferentially distributed to the unit, comprising a container such as for example a bottle, a flow limiter device inserted into the neck of the container. , a seal of tamper and sealing before first opening and a means of closing the assembly.
- a container such as for example a bottle
- a flow limiter device inserted into the neck of the container.
- a seal of tamper and sealing before first opening and a means of closing the assembly are, for example, pharmaceutical products, such as tablets, dragees, pills, tablets, lozenges, granules, capsules, capsules, of all shapes and the largest dimension of which is either the diameter or the length .
- Such a set of storage and distribution is intended to prevent the untimely exit of several products at a time, when using such a packaging by the end user, consumer of said products.
- EP 756567 discloses a package for medicaments, equipped with a dispensing system of said drugs in a compressed form.
- Such a container for tablets comprises a storage compartment that can contain a certain volume of tablets, said storage compartment being in communication with the outside of the container, via a dispensing device and this, by one or more passes dispensing system having one or more dispensing openings.
- This dispensing device may be formed to form an integral part of the container body or on the contrary be considered as an adapter separate from the container, and coming to attach to the container body to form the package.
- said adapter may include a compartment operating as a storage chamber of a generally powdery desiccant, thus protecting the tablets contained in the package against the ambient humidity of said package.
- a moisture porous membrane retains the powdery desiccant while allowing the moisture contained in the tablets stored in the container body and / or the internal moisture present in the container to be absorbed into the desiccant material .
- the container equipped with its dispensing device which can be considered as a flow limiter, is closed through a lid cap.
- the container and its lid cap are then designed in a joint manner, adapting to each other but independently of the dispensing device.
- the sealing of a peelable foil seal is a well-known technique, easy to implement and offers advantages such as rapid temperature rise, control, sealing temperatures, subject to the use of thermoplastic coatings on the aluminum seal having ability to adhere to the surface on which the seal is intended to be sealed.
- This sealing surface can be very different in nature, such as glass or plastic. Glass bottles are indeed very standard for the packaging of pharmaceutical products, offering transparency and high availability. However, other plastic materials can also be converted into containers, such as bottles or jars, by plastics technology such as injection blow molding or extrusion blow molding. These are often preferentially transparent materials such as polyesters or polycarbonates. Other materials are also possible such as polyethylenes or polypropylenes. The necks of these containers constitute the sealing surfaces.
- the flow restrictors of the prior art equipping containers such as flasks or jars can not give sufficiently satisfactory results in terms of their ability to integrate this lidding function via a sealable seal.
- the problem posed by the state of the art is, therefore, to achieve a set of storage and distribution of unitary solid products, packaged in bulk, equipped not only with a flow limiter dispenser and preferentially unit by unit distribution said products contained, but also means for sealing said assembly, permanently and sealed after filling via a thermally sealed lid.
- the invention relates to a set of storage and controlled distribution of unit products, consisting of a bulk storage container of said products, a container closure means and a distribution flow limiter device products having an upper surface and a lower surface, a device comprising, to allow the passage of products to be dispensed from the inside to the outside of the container: an inlet opening on its lower surface;
- the flow restrictor device a) is inserted into the container such that at least a portion of its upper surface is flush with the upper peripheral surface of the neck of the container forming a sealing plane or is supported by the peripheral surface of said neck via a support means whose upper surface forms a sealing plane; b) comprises, associated with the container, a seal sealed on at least one of the sealing surfaces defined by: the upper peripheral surface of the neck of the container; and / or all or part of the upper surface of the device; and / or the peripheral surface of the main dispensing orifice of the device.
- the invention finally relates to the use of the sealed storage and dispensing assembly for the packaging of solid products, more particularly of the pharmaceutical type.
- the storage and distribution assembly is in the form of a container, a flow-limiting device, having an upper surface and a lower surface and a peripheral surface between the two surfaces, an orifice dispensing device, the device being inserted into the neck of the container with which it is associated, together the inviolability and the sealing are ensured by a seal, then whose sealing is ensured, after first opening, by a closure means such as for example a cap / cover closable.
- the upper surface of the device may be flat, or formed of several parallel planes interconnected, or be concave or convex.
- the seal is sealed on at least one of the sealing surfaces which must be substantially flat and substantially level, that is to say at best in the same plane.
- the upper peripheral surface of the container neck generates a first plane which constitutes the first sealing surface.
- At least a substantially flat portion of the upper surface of the device and more preferably the upper peripheral surface of the device generates a second plane which constitutes the second sealing surface.
- the substantially planar peripheral surface of the main dispensing orifice generates a third plane which may constitute a third sealing surface.
- At least part of the upper surface of said device at most is flush with the upper peripheral surface of the neck of the container or is supported on this peripheral surface of said neck via the support means which may be a collar.
- the flow limiter device comprises an inlet opening located on its lower surface, at least one guide surface, with an axis of symmetry or not, the surface of which can be developable or non-developable and an outlet opening which opens on the main distribution orifice or which constitutes the main dispensing orifice, this device having a fixing means on the associated container.
- the flow-limiting device belonging to the assembly according to the invention can be architecturally massive, such as for example in the form of a solid plug or in the form of a thin-walled structure. both can be obtained by the techniques of the plastics industry.
- This flow limiter device also comprises, in the case of a massive architecture, an outer peripheral surface, preferably cylindrical or in the case of a thin-walled structure, a peripheral skirt, preferably cylindrical, surface or skirt on which is placed the fixing means for assembling the device to the container permanently and tightly.
- This flow limiter device comprises a continuous upper surface in the case of a massive architecture or an upper surface formed of parallel planes interconnected, appearing as concentric surfaces separated from each other and preferably as concentric rings in the in the case of a thin-walled architecture or a concave or convex upper surface, all these surfaces having the capacity to receive a peelable, heat-sealable, preferably induction-induced, operculum disposed over all or part of these surfaces and possibly overflowing from said surfaces to it can be sealed on the neck of the container and conceal the controlled storage and distribution assembly in a sealed manner.
- the flow limiter device belonging to the storage and distribution assembly has an inlet opening on its lower surface opening on the guide surface.
- Said inlet opening may be, for example, of circular, elliptical or polygonal section depending on the section of the container. However, it is preferentially circular, for reasons of simplicity of machining. This section is at most equal to the internal section of the neck of the container.
- the flow limiter device belonging to the storage and distribution assembly comprises a guide surface of the products to be dispensed, upstream of the main distribution orifice.
- the guide surface is in the form of a wall delimiting a hollow volume with spherical surface such as cap or spherical zone, frustoconical, cylindro-frustoconical, parabolic truncated, truncated hyperbolic, these surfaces being concave, of straight or oblique revolution, that is to say generated by a rectilinear line or by a curvilinear line.
- the hollow volume thus defined has a height and a base whose ratio between the height and the dimension of its base can be very low or even zero in the extreme case of a planar guide surface.
- the apex angle of the cone may be between 30 ° and 180 ° and preferably between 45 ° and 135 °.
- the wall-forming guide surface is open at both ends.
- One of the openings, the largest, is oriented towards the inside of the container and constitutes the input of the device for the products to be dispensed.
- the other opening opens onto or constitutes the main orifice for distribution and flow limitation of said products, because of its geometry created specifically.
- the guide surface may be a flat surface having the main dispensing orifice.
- Main Distribution Hole
- the storage and distribution assembly comprises a main distribution orifice on the upper surface of the flow restrictor device, allowing the passage, from inside to outside of the container, unit by unit, of the products. to distribute.
- the guiding surface opens onto the main dispensing orifice of the device or constitutes, by its small open end, the main dispensing orifice.
- the main dispensing orifice may be of different sections, circular, elliptical or polygonal or have any other geometry depending on the shape and size of the products to be dispensed.
- This orifice has dimensions that allow the passage of a single product at a time.
- the main distribution orifice is circular, its diameter is generally close to the length or the diameter of the product to be dispensed.
- the main dispensing orifice may be placed at the level of the plane of the upper peripheral surface of the flow restricting device or may be set back, that is to say below the level of the plane formed by the upper peripheral surface of the device or in superstructure with respect to this same plane.
- the main distribution orifice is preferably positioned in the center, that is to say in the axis of the flow restricting device. But in other designs, the main dispensing orifice may be positioned outside the axis of symmetry of the device flow limiter, such as for example at the periphery or at any other point on the upper surface of the device.
- the main dispensing orifice defines a peripheral planar surface which generates the third plane which may be the third sealing surface, depending on the case.
- main dispensing orifice can be set back from the plane of the upper peripheral surface of the flow restrictor device, creates a free space between the upper peripheral surface of the device constituting the second sealing surface receiving the seal. and the peripheral flat surface of the main distribution port, which allows to associate with said orifice an additional tamper system or a child protection system.
- the flow limiter device belonging to the storage and distribution assembly also comprises a fixing means on the inner surface of the container and / or on the neck of the container with which it is associated.
- the fixing means is positioned on the outer peripheral surface of the device in the case of a massive architecture or on the peripheral skirt in the case of a thin-walled structure.
