[0001]

The present invention relates to a card-type package. The present invention particularly relates to a card-type package that contains a PTP sheet of a medicine. The present invention further relates to a continuous body of the card-type package and a method for manufacturing (or assembling) the same.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, PTP (Press Through Package) packaging has been known as one of pharmaceutical packaging techniques. The PTP sheet is devised so that information such as characters can be described in order to give necessary information such as the type of the drug and cautions in taking the drug to the person to whom the drug has been administered.
For example, Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 61-113259 discloses a PTP sheet provided with a colored portion in which characters and the like can be written.

Further, in order to match the number of medicines contained in the PTP sheet with the number of medicines to be taken, the number of medicine accommodation spaces in which seven in the longitudinal direction are arranged in the width direction in a row of the number of times of daily use are defined. A medicine packaging technology which constitutes one unit is disclosed (Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-17137). The day of the week is further printed on this PTP sheet.

In Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 2-1290074, medicines to be taken are arranged in order for each day of the week.
In addition, a medicine packaging technique in which the day of the week is described on a packaging sheet is disclosed.

Further, there is a hard case of a PTP sheet capable of feeding out a tablet of a belt-shaped PTP sheet in a fixed unit, and furthermore, the date and the number of doses can be known (Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-25171). Furthermore, there is a similar hard case for accommodating the PTP sheet described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-17137 (Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No.
No.-42749, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-42750. )

[0006]

In each of the above-mentioned conventional examples, information such as characters is directly written on a PTP sheet. At the stage of medication for a known case, there is no particular inconvenience even with such direct printing because the form of taking the drug is determined to some extent. However, for example, in the case of a drug in the clinical trial stage, the direct printing as described above is not appropriate because the dosage form has not been determined and it is necessary to convey a variety of precautions to the patient. Absent.

Therefore, the present invention does not directly print information on a PTP sheet, but packs the PTP sheet with a card-type packaging material on which information is described, and provides a variety of precautions for use, medication history, An object of the present invention is to provide a card-type package capable of reliably transmitting various information such as memos of symptoms to patients, doctors, pharmacists, and other consumers.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a card-type package capable of easily and reliably taking out the contents such as individual medicines contained in a PTP sheet from the card-type package. And

It is a further object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacturing a card-type package which can manufacture the card-type package without causing defective packaging of the card-type package.

[0010] Further, the present invention provides a card-type package which is convenient for patients and consumers to take by using the card-type package in a continuum which is continuous with a weekly dose unit or a monthly dose unit. The aim is to provide a continuum of body.

[0011]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, a card-type package according to the present invention is a card-type package in which a PTP sheet containing contents such as a medicine contains notes on taking. The card-type packaging material is formed of a pair of cardboards, and the PTP sheet is sealed between the pair of cardboards. Therefore, since the PTP sheet is sealed with a card on which precautions for taking can be described each time, various information such as various precautions for use, medication history, memos of symptoms, etc. can be securely transmitted to patients, doctors, It can be communicated to pharmacists and other consumers.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the P
The TP sheet has a plurality of convex portions for accommodating a plurality of drugs, and the card-type packaging material has a plurality of holes into which the convex portions are fitted. The hole is formed in such a form that the drug or the like can be detached from the projecting portion by ordinary stress when the projecting portion is deformed in order to detach the component.

To this end, the hole has a width substantially equal to the convex portion and a width larger than the convex portion, and preferably the hole is located symmetrically with respect to the convex portion. It is formed in a form that forms a pair of contacts. The hole may be formed in any of an elliptical shape, a diamond shape, a teardrop shape, and a gourd shape having a contact point with the convex portion.

[0014] The convex portion is formed, for example, in a circular cross section, and accommodates a tablet therein.

The continuum of card-type packages according to the present invention has a structure in which a plurality of the above-mentioned card-type packages are connected weekly or monthly via a connecting portion.

Further, the method for manufacturing a card-type package according to the present invention is characterized in that a hole provided in the card-type packaging material has P

[0020]

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this embodiment,
A card-type package used for a clinical trial, that is, a clinical test performed in a medical institution to obtain the therapeutic results of a drug, and other therapeutic tests will be described.

FIG. 1 is a front view of the card-type package, FIG. 2 is a rear view thereof, FIG. 3 is a developed view thereof, and FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view thereof.

As shown in FIG. 4, the card-type package has a structure in which a PTP sheet 14 of a medicine is sealed between card-type packaging materials 12 made of rectangular cardboard as a whole. The front mold 12A of the card-type packaging material shown in FIG. 1 and its back mold 12B shown in FIG. 2 are folded so as to face each other with their center lines 16 symmetrical as shown in FIGS. A PTP sheet of the medicine is sandwiched between the front cover and the back paper.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 1, this PTP sheet has a circular convex portion 18 having a circular cross section for accommodating a medicine.
Are provided in a row, and one tablet 20 is accommodated in each of the convex portions.

On the surface of the PTP sheet opposite to the projection,
The aluminum foil is adhered to the entire surface of the plastic material (for example, vinyl chloride resin) having a convex portion, and the tablet in the convex portion is pressed by pressing the convex portion toward the opposite surface so that the aluminum foil (FIG. 2) 22) is exposed outside the PTP sheet. The open end of the projection (opened to the back of the plastic material) is covered with aluminum foil.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 3 and 4,
A plurality of elliptical holes 24 into which individual circular convex portions of the PTP sheet can be fitted are formed in a row on the front surface of the card-type package. In the back mold, a circular hole 26 having a shape substantially equal to the diameter of the circular convex portion is provided at a position corresponding to the circular convex portion.
Are similarly formed in a line.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the front and back molds describe relatively detailed precautions for administration necessary for the clinical trial stage. Patients or the like who receive this medication take the drug with reference to these relatively detailed considerations. The card-type package of FIGS. 1 and 2 contains tablets for one week.

When assembling (manufacturing) the card-type package, as shown in FIG. 4, first, each convex portion 18 of the PTP sheet is fitted into an oval hole from the back of the front mold, and then, as shown in FIG. Then, the back mold is folded along the center line 16 toward the front mold, and a PTP sheet is sealed between the front mold and the back mold. The front mold and the back mold are adhered to each other with a predetermined adhesive or pressure-sensitive adhesive. Preferably, it is affixed using a heat sensitive paste. Note that these steps will be described later in detail.

FIG. 5 shows a state in which the convex portion 18 of the PTP sheet is fitted into the oval hole 24 from the back of the front mold.
It is a partial enlarged view. As shown in this figure, the elliptical hole has a minor axis 2 formed to have a width substantially equal to the diameter of the circular convex portion.
4A and a major axis 24B having a width larger than the diameter of the circular convex portion. This major axis has a width that is approximately 1.5 times the diameter of the circular projection.

Since the minor axis 24A of the elliptical hole is substantially equal to the diameter of the circular convex part, a pair of contact points 3 where the elliptical hole and the circular convex part are in contact at the intersection of the minor axis and the outer periphery of the circular convex part.
0A and 30B exist line-symmetrically via the major axis 24B.

Next, the reason why the hole of the card package 10 is formed in such a shape will be described. First, for comparison, advantages and disadvantages when the hole is formed from a circular hole having a diameter substantially equal to the diameter of the circular convex portion will be described. Generally, when a convex portion of a PTP sheet is accommodated in a hole of a card-type packaging material, in order to accurately position the convex portion in the hole or to eliminate movement or displacement of the convex portion fitted into the hole (this (In order to hold and fix the projection in the hole), the diameter of the circular hole is set to almost the same value as that of the circular projection as described above.

When taking out the tablets in the PTP sheet from the card package, as shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 6, the convex portion 18 of the PTP sheet is pushed rearward from the side 12A of the cover of the card package to push it. The tablet 20 was deformed to break the aluminum foil 22 exposed in the circular hole 26 of the backing paper, and the tablet 20 was taken out of the card type package.

However, in this method, the table type 12A
Since the circular hole outer wall 13 is in contact with or very close to the PTP sheet protrusion 18, there is a possibility that the deformation of the protrusion which is about to be crushed by stress may be interfered. When this deformation is interfered, the degree to which the convex portion is crushed is suppressed, and it is prevented that the crushed convex portion tries to push out the tablet from the back surface. Therefore, the tablet cannot be smoothly and easily taken out from the projection.
If the protruding portion 18 is to be further crushed by resisting the obstruction, the card-type packaging material around the protruding portion must be subjected to an excessive stress, and the amount of deformation of the card-type packaging body increases. Therefore, there is a problem that the aluminum foil on the back surface of the other convex portion other than the target convex portion is unintentionally torn, and the tablet may jump out of the other convex portion.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5 and as shown in FIG. 7 (a sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. 3), when this circular hole is formed as an elliptical hole, Diameter 24
Contact points A and 30 where A is in contact with the circular convex portion 18
In B, while the wall surface of the front mold 12A of the card-type packaging material supports the convex portion 18, the deformation amount caused by the collapse of the circular convex portion described above is absorbed between the long diameter portion 30B and the circular convex portion 18. There is a margin (escape) 32 that can be made. Therefore,
It is possible to take out the tablet from the circular projection without requiring excessive force to crush the circular projection.

Such an elliptical hole has a contact point supporting the convex portion and an amount of deformation due to the collapse of the convex portion (that is, a deformation due to the outer wall of the convex portion projecting from the initial position in the radial direction of the convex portion). Provide room to absorb The opening formed in the card-type packaging material is not limited to the elliptical shape provided that the contact and the allowance are provided. For example, the shape may be a rhombus shape ((1) in FIG. 8), a gourd shape ((2)), or a teardrop shape ((3)).

The contact point of the elliptical hole (the same applies to other shapes) is formed symmetrically with the major axis 24B (see FIG. 5). Therefore, between the contact points 30A and 30B, the circular convex portion 18 is provided.
Are equally supported. In addition, a margin 32
, It is easy to fit the projection 18 into the elliptical opening 24. In the case of the rhombus shape, the circular convex portion is more reliably supported by the rhombus hole by four contact points symmetrical about the center of the rhombus (see FIG. 8A).

As shown in FIG. 3, the plurality of elliptical holes 24 for accommodating the circular convex portions of the card-type package are formed such that the minor axis of the adjacent elliptical hole and the major axis of the adjacent elliptical hole are orthogonal to each other. Each is formed. Therefore, the longitudinal width of the PTP sheet and the longitudinal width of the card-type packaging material are
Even if the opening is made elliptical, it can be prevented from increasing more than necessary.

On the front and back surfaces of the card-type package,
Various information such as medication information, precautions, precautions, and the like having desired content and amount can be described, and this information can be transmitted to a doctor, pharmacist, or patient. In particular, prepare various card-type packaging materials in which various information is described in advance,
What is necessary is just to seal a PTP sheet using a predetermined one packaging material. This makes it possible to meet a wide variety of drug administration requirements. Such information is referred to as PTP
Pre-printing on a sheet is usually not a tedious task. Such demands arise, for example, during drug trials. That is, in the case of drug trials, it is necessary to surely convey various precautions and points to the patient. Of course, even for drugs on the market, specific information can be reliably transmitted to the user by adopting the above-described embodiment. As a matter of course, the present invention can be generally applied to contents (packages) other than drugs, such as confectionery and food. At this time, instead of the notice or the notice, the advertisement notice information can be applied to the card-type packaging material.

Next, a method of manufacturing the card-type package according to this embodiment will be described. FIG. 9 is a plan view of a pedestal on which a package in which a PTP sheet is sandwiched between a front mold and a back mold of a card-type packaging material is installed. FIG. 10 is a sectional view of the pedestal taken along line BB. In these figures, reference numeral 40 denotes an area where the two card packages connected by the connecting band are placed, and reference numeral 42 denotes a holder for fixing the base end of the package to the base.

As shown in FIG. 10, reference numeral 40 denotes a recess in which the above-mentioned package is accommodated. A wall 44 is formed at the tip of the concave portion so as to contact the upper end of the card-type package. Reference numeral 46 (FIG. 9) of the holder is a handle for the operator to rotate the holder toward the pedestal or to rotate the holder away from the pedestal.

Reference numeral 48 in FIG. 10 indicates the center of rotation of the hinge for rotating the holder with respect to the base. On this pedestal, circular holes 50 into which the concave portions of the PTP sheet are fitted are arranged in a line.

The manufacturing process of the card-type package using the pedestal is as follows.

1. The PTP sheet is sandwiched between the front mold 12A and the back mold 1B of the packaging material so that the projection 18 of the PTP sheet fits into the oval hole 24 of the cover of the card-type packaging material.
Almost the entire back surface of at least one of the front mold and the back mold is coated with a heat-sensitive adhesive in advance. The heat-sensitive adhesive melts when the card-type package is heated in a pressed state at a certain temperature or higher, and affixes the front mold and the back mold. A heat-sensitive adhesive having a melting point of about 80 ° C. is used.

2. The card-shaped package is placed on the pedestal, and then the base end of the card-shaped package on the pedestal is held by the holder.

3. The heater is pressed against the card-shaped package on the base. The pressure at this time is realized by pressing the heater connected to the cylinder against the base. The pressure is usually one ton for the whole area of the card type package, and the heating temperature is about 130 ° C to 200 ° C. The heating time is from 2 seconds to several seconds.

Of course, the pressure, heating temperature and heating time are
It is appropriately adjusted depending on the thickness, material, and area of the card-type packaging material. Since the convex portion of the PTP sheet is fitted in the circular groove of the pedestal, the pressure and heat are prevented from reaching the tablets in the convex portion (preventing the convex portion from reaching 50 ° C. or more). The part is not crushed when pressurized or the tablet is heated so that the drug is not deteriorated.

The heater does not heat and press the card-type package on the pedestal by its entire surface, but can heat the card-type package on the pedestal in a pattern shown by a dashed line or hatching in FIG. Good. In this way, compared to the case where the entire surface of the card-type package is affixed, it is possible to uniformly affix both the back mold and the front mold without wrinkling.

5. After releasing the holder from the card-type package, the card-type package is taken out from the pedestal.

The fourth step has the following problem. First, the air between the front mold and the back mold of the card-type package is properly discharged from between them. If this is not done properly, air will remain between the front mold and the back mold, causing poor adhesion of both. This problem is exacerbated as the thickness of the packaging material increases.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 11, a heat-resistant tape 60 or the like is adhered to the card package accommodating recess 40 on the pedestal 61 in accordance with the heating pattern shown in FIG. To form However, a cut 62 is provided in the heat-resistant tape, and air is removed from the cut when the front mold and the back mold are pressed against each other.

On the other hand, it is also effective to take the following form instead of this. FIG. 12 shows a pedestal 61 according to this embodiment from the side. The pedestal is supported by a base 64, and an elastic means 66 is formed between the pedestal and the base near the tip of the pedestal. The elastic means is, for example, a coil spring or a leaf spring.

As shown in FIG. 12, when the heater 70 fixed to the cylinder 68 is pressed against the pedestal 61, the pedestal receives the reaction force (elastic force) from the elastic means by this pressing, and The hinge 72 at the end 72 is gradually rotated toward the base 64 as shown by arrow 74.

In this process, the heater is gradually pressed against the card-type package on the pedestal from the base end to the tip, as shown by the one-dot broken line arrow 76. That is, the front mold and the back mold are sequentially attached from the base end 10A to the front end 10B of the card-type package on the pedestal. The broken line in the figure indicates a state where the pedestal has been rotated until it is substantially parallel to the base. Since the front end of the card-type package forms an opening in which the cover and the backing paper are not connected, the air between the cover and the backing paper is discharged from this opening as shown by a spiral arrow 78. be able to.

Instead of using the elastic means (elastic means), a pedestal 61 swinging with respect to the base 64 may be employed as shown in FIG. In other words, the support shaft 77 is penetrated through both edges of the base and the pedestal, and the pedestal is pivotally supported on the base. If this support shaft is provided eccentrically closer to the tip than the center of the pedestal, this swingable support is realized. When the heater is not in contact with the pedestal, the base is closer to the base end than the front end by its own weight ((1) in FIG. 13). When the heater comes into contact with the pedestal from this configuration, the base end of the pedestal is lifted and its tip is lowered, and finally the base and the pedestal are made parallel as shown in FIG. . In the process of (2), as shown by the arrow 76 in FIG. 12, the front mold and the back mold are thermocompression-bonded gradually from the base end to the tip of the card-type package.

Second, there is a disadvantage when the card-type package is placed on the pedestal. It is desired that the convex portion 18 projecting from the card-type package is sufficiently stopped in the circular concave portion 50 of the pedestal. Otherwise, when the pressure is applied to the card-type package, the convex portion 18 comes off the concave portion 50. Therefore, it is conceivable to make the diameter of the circular concave portion slightly larger than the diameter of the circular convex portion. However, this causes a problem that the circular convex portion is deformed or the circular convex portion is damaged. Therefore, the diameter of the circular concave portion is set to a value larger than the diameter of the circular convex portion with a margin, and the base end of the card-type package is held and fixed (retained) to the pedestal by using the above-described retainer 42.

On the other hand, regardless of such a retainer, FIG.
As shown in (2), an opening 80 may be formed in the surface of the pedestal to be connected to a decompression means such as a vacuum pump, so that the card-type package on the pedestal is adsorbed to the pedestal under reduced pressure.

FIG. 15 is a front view showing a continuous body in which the above-described card-type package is connected. The continuum has a structure in which a plurality of card-type packages 10 are connected to each other via a connecting portion 82. The connecting portion 82 is, for example,
It is formed integrally with the front or back mold. By providing perforations in the connecting portion, the used card-type package can be cut off from the continuous body and passed to a doctor or the like.

In this continuum, four packages containing one week's worth of medicine are connected in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, as a whole, the number of medicines to be taken on a monthly basis is stored in this connected body. Of course, one package is a unit of the day, and if these seven packages are connected, a continuous body used for taking on a weekly basis as a whole is provided.

In this continuum, the rows 90 of the PTP sheet provided with the circular convex portions are formed so as to be shifted from each other in the adjacent sheet-type package. By doing so, when the front molds of the sheet-type package are opposed to each other and folded through the connecting portion 82, the protrusions of the PTP sheet projecting from the holes 24 of the front mold do not touch each other. I have to.

In the above-described embodiment, the front and back molds of the card-type packaging material are pressure-bonded with the heat-sensitive glue. Alternatively, a double-sided tape may be used.
