Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container for the provision of medical fluids according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a container is out US 4,516,977 A known, wherein on a tubular connecting piece a pierceable membrane is provided, which is kept sterile by a cap or a removable protective strip before use.
  • Patent Abstracts of Japan Bd2003, No. 12, 5 shows a valve inserted on the circumference of a hose, through which a connecting line can be inserted transversely into the hose, which is connected to a bag for medical fluid.
  • two ports are each welded from a flexible tube in the edge region of the foil bag and provided at the free end with a protective cap which is screwed onto the Luer thread at the free end of the tube.
  • a tamper-evident crucible is formed, which can be opened by kinking the tube.
  • the flexible hose is compressed by a clamp.
  • Tubing welding is a difficult process to control in the manufacture of such a bag because capillary welding can easily occur between the two film layers of the bag when welding the tube.
  • the detachable flexible hose is also costly.
  • the hose must be made relatively thick-walled, so that a sufficient stability when inserting a plug required for welding is present.
  • the internal, sterile-tight tamper-evident closure complicates the validated sterilization of the connection area.
  • the space within the Luer-Lock cone between the tamper-evident closure and the outer protective cap is not sterilized during the sterilization process because it is not in contact with the sterilized solution to which the physical / microbiological process validation refers. Therefore, an additional transfer bag is usually required.
  • the invention has the object of providing a container of the type described in such a way that at low cost in the manufacture also handling is simplified.
  • the designed as a removal connector port is provided near the free end with a valve device and at the outer end with the originality-crushing seal.
  • the valve is after breaking the breaker seal by a connection device, such as the tubular approach of a Luer-Lock (male), on a hose or the like operable.
  • the tamper-evident closure delimits the connection or connection area on the outside and is connected to the front side of the removal connector, the sterility of the connection area is ensured and a repacking bag for maintaining the sterility of the connection area can be dispensed with. Due to the external quality seal, which is not covered by any protective cap, the usability state is immediately recognizable. By the valve means results in a shut-off possibility on the bag to separate the partially filled bag from a flushing system, without a separate terminal is required.
  • Fig. 1 shows a bag 1 in a front view, Fig. 1a in a side view and Fig. 1b in a view from below.
  • the bag 1 consists of two films along each other along their edge 1a are welded.
  • two extraction connectors 2 are welded at a distance from each other in the edge region 1 a.
  • Fig. 2 shows an enlarged view of a section of a removal connector in the view of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2a shows a 90 ° offset section through the removal connector in the view of Fig. 1 a.
  • the two removal connectors 2 have in the connection area 2a a polygonal, in particular diamond-shaped cross-section, which can be pressed flat during welding in the edge region 1a of the bag 1, so that a welding of the removal connector with the bag films without a core is possible, the Einschwei A flexible hose is required.
  • the thin-walled polygonal region 2a of the removal connector 2 merges into a thicker-walled middle region 2b, which in this exemplary embodiment results in a stiff tubular cross-section.
  • 2c is a connection sleeve with a groove on the front side, in which an axially projecting flange of a disk-shaped end part 2d is inserted or welded in a fluid-tight manner.
  • This disk-shaped end part 2d has in the middle a smaller diameter pipe socket 2e, in which a valve 3 is inserted and which has a luer thread on the outer circumference.
  • a crushing seal 4 is formed or welded in the form of a disc.
  • the valve 3 consists of an elastomeric disc, which - like Fig. 5 shows - starting from a thicker peripheral edge becomes thinner inside and in the thin central region with a z. B. pierced with a needle hole 3a is provided. If this disc of flexible plastic from the pipe socket La of a Luer-Lock-male L is applied, then the hole widens in the middle, such as Fig. 5b shows, and releases the flow for the liquid in the bag. In the relaxed state of the valve disc 3, however, no liquid is allowed to pass, unless the pressure of the liquid is too high. By tightening the Luer-Lock L, the valve disc 3 is widened to release the flow.
  • connection device can be designed so that the valve disc 3 closes again by slightly loosening the Luer-Lock L, such as Fig. 5c in the enlarged view of the valve shows without the hose S is completely detached from the bag. In this way, a switchability of the valve is achieved without a connection hose S is released from the removal connector 2.
  • the valve 3 made of an elastomer disc fulfills several functions. In addition to the valve function, which can be switched by pressure of the Luer-Lock-male, there is a radial guidance and sealing of the cone tip of the Luer-Lock-male.
  • the wall of the Luer-Lock-female on the removal connector or the Luer thread on the pipe socket 2e can not be made exactly conical standard for injection molding technical reasons because of the outer crushing crucible 4 and the necessary demolding of réellekems.
  • the concave shape of the valve disc 3 serves as a guide and hydraulic sealing of the pipe socket La of the Luer lock male.
  • valve for water vapor is permeable through the hole 3a in the middle of the valve disc 3, so that during sterilization, the sterility of a present between the valve 3 and crucible 4 Konnetechnischsraumes 5 is ensured.
  • the Konnetechnischsraum 5 in the pipe socket 2e of the removal connector 2 is through the hole 3a in the valve disc within the solution space, which is closed by the crushing seal 4 and is bounded by the foil bag 1 and the removal connector 2.
  • Fig. 3 to 5 show a further embodiment, wherein the same reference numerals are used for the same or corresponding elements.
  • two removal connectors 20 are welded into the film 1b of the bag on the front side of the bag 1, wherein the removal connector 20, the in Fig. 4 has reproduced cross-sectional shape.
  • an outwardly projecting portion 20b is formed on a round or oval flange portion 20a, which in the sectional view of Fig. 4 approximately perpendicular to each other having wall sections, wherein at the downwardly inclined wall portion 20c of the pipe socket 2e of the removal connector 2 ( Fig. 2 ) is formed, which receives the valve disc 3.
  • This pipe neck 2e is how Fig. 3b in a side view of the bag shows obliquely inclined downwards.
  • Fig. 3 denotes a filling connector, which is welded in the same way via a flange portion 30 a with the film 1 b of the bag 1.
  • 30b is a shutter disc referred to, which is welded to the filling connector 30 and closes it.
  • Fig. 5 shows the extraction connector 20 in the provision, wherein a connection hose S with a luer lock male L to be connected to the bag.
  • the crushing seal 4 is first aborted from the pipe neck 2e, with no liquid emerging through the closed position of the valve disk 3 reproduced in an enlarged view.
  • Fig. 5b shows screwed the female thread Lb Luer-Lock on the pipe socket 2e, wherein the pipe socket La penetrates into the pipe socket 2e.
  • the pipe socket La deforms the valve disk 3 such that the small opening 3a is expanded in the relaxed state, as shown in the enlarged view in FIG Fig. 5b shows. In this state, the valve 3 is opened and liquid can flow out into the connection hose S.
  • the diameter of the disc-shaped crushing crucible 4 is advantageously larger than the outer diameter of the tube extension 2e. As a result, the removal of the refractive seal is facilitated and it is the usability state easily recognizable by this relatively large-scale refractive seal.
  • valve disc 3 instead of the reproduced valve disc 3, another embodiment of a valve can be provided, which is adjustable from the outside through the protruding tubular extension La of a Luer-Lock in the open position and automatically or by the pressure of the liquid in the bag is moved back into the closed position.
  • the described embodiment in the form of the valve disc 3 forms a particularly inexpensive solution.
  • the inventive design of a removal connector can for different containers, such.
  • vials, bottles and the like are used and is not limited to a rinsing solution bag, in which two of the described removal connectors 2, 20 are provided at a distance of about 20 to 40 mm from each other to a circulation of the rinsing solution through the bag. 1 to enable.
