Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a tray for receiving a plurality of hollow medicinal bodies. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION US patent 6,216,885 B1 discloses a tray for holding a plurality of syringes, made of a thermally molded plastic material, specifically deep-drawn. This tray has very little rigidity and is therefore difficult to handle. To facilitate handling, gripping lugs are provided at regular intervals, to which, for example, vacuum clamps can be attached to hold the tray. The tray is designed for a specific syringe size, with fixed clamping elements to securely and stably retain syringes of that size. Consequently, the tray cannot be used flexibly for different syringe sizes, and because of the clamping elements that hold the syringes securely in place, loading the tray with syringes or removing syringes from the tray is difficult. Trays are also known in which medicinal bodies are placed loosely, which is disadvantageous, particularly if the hollow medicinal bodies contain or consist of glass. Contact between glass pieces then occurs, which can cause damage, especially during transport. Labels on the medicinal bodies can also be damaged or their legibility impaired. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The invention is therefore based on the objective of creating a tray for receiving hollow medicinal bodies in which the aforementioned disadvantages are at least partially overcome, preferably without having these disadvantages. The objective is achieved by providing the current technical doctrine, in particular, the doctrine of independent claims and the modalities manifested in dependent claims and the description. The objective is achieved, in particular, by creating a tray for receiving a plurality of hollow medicinal bodies, comprising a floor plate. The floor plate has a top face and a bottom face. A wall is arranged along the outer edges of the tray on the top face, around its entire circumference. The floor plate and the wall define a receptacle volume for receiving the hollow medicinal bodies. The tray has a finite length along a longitudinal direction and a finite width along a width direction that is oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The tray comprises at least one clamping structure for holding the hollow medicinal bodies.The support structure, in turn, has a first support wall extending longitudinally from a first width section of the wall to a second width section of the opposite wall. First slots are formed in the first support wall, spaced apart from each other. The support structure also has a second support wall, spaced apart from the first support wall by a first width, extending parallel to the first support wall from the first width section to the second width section. Second slots are formed in the second support wall, spaced apart from each other. Each of the second slots is aligned with a corresponding first slot associated with it.The second and first slits are associated with each other, specifically in pairs, with the first and second slits being aligned with each other. The clamping structure further comprises a row of spacer elements, spaced from the clamping walls by a second width, extending parallel to the clamping walls and spaced from each other to form a plurality of gaps. The spacer elements are offset from the slits such that each gap is aligned with one of the first and second slits. With each pair consisting of a first and a second slit, a corresponding gap is associated, aligned with the respective first and second slits of the pair.Each of these free spaces, the first draw associated with this free space, and the second draw associated with the free space and the first draw, defines a holding position for a hollow medicinal body, the holding position extending in the width direction of the tray. The first width distance is less than the second width distance. Thanks to the geometric structure of the base plate and the surrounding wall on all sides, which together define the receptacle volume, the tray has high rigidity and can therefore be handled easily and stably. In particular, gripping handles, which would otherwise have to be provided separately, are not required, thus saving the space that would otherwise be allocated for them and allowing it to be used to accommodate hollow medicinal bodies. The clamping structure, with its clamping positions formed by the notches and gaps, is very flexible and can be used with a variety of different hollow medicinal body shapes, regardless of whether a handle, plunger rod, and / or injection needle are already attached.The clamping structure eliminates fixed clamping elements, allowing for quick and easy placement and removal of hollow medicinal products, either manually or mechanically—particularly by robot. The tray thus facilitates both easy loading and unloading of hollow medicinal products. The clamping positions also provide a consistent placement scheme for subsequent processing of the hollow medicinal products. Furthermore, these positions define distinct, spaced regions for each product, preventing contact between crystals. This also eliminates the risk of damage to the hollow medicinal products and / or any labels affixed to them. Specifically, the legibility of the labels is not compromised when using the proposed tray. In particular, the tray currently proposed allows for the accurate inference of the exact number of hollow medicinal bodies placed. A single tray can accommodate a variety of different shapes and variations of hollow medicinal bodies. Specifically, they can be individually packaged. C / ZQ Ln / Zznz / E / YIAI offers various syringe formats with and without a plunger rod and / or handle. Thanks to the precisely adjustable seat provided by the clamping positions, displacement of the hollow medicinal contents during transport is prevented. The floor slab preferably has an extended, flat configuration. In particular, the floor slab is free of bulges and / or protrusions. The tray, in particular, is not deep-drawn. The tray is preferably manufactured by injection molding. In particular, the tray can be reused multiple times, thanks to the robustness of the injection-molded material; it can be used more frequently than a deep-drawn material. The tray is also suitable for use as a returnable item. Thanks to the arrangement of the support walls, on the one hand, and the spacers that form the free spaces, on the other hand, incorrect placement of the hollow medicinal bodies is excluded. The wall preferably extends at a 90° angle to the floor slab. Specifically, the wall extends vertically from the floor slab. This vertical direction is perpendicular to both the longitudinal and horizontal directions. The longitudinal direction is, preferably, a direction of maximum extension of the tray. The width direction corresponds, preferably, to a direction in which the tray extends over a width that is shorter than the length along which the tray extends in the longitudinal direction. The height direction is, in particular, a direction that extends, in the correct arrangement of use of the tray, in the vertical direction, that is, in the geodetic height direction. The longitudinal and width directions, on the other hand, extend in a plane to which the height direction is perpendicular in the correct arrangement of use of the tray, the vertical direction in space. The wall extends vertically, preferably, to at least the top edge of a larger hollow medicinal body that can be placed in the receptacle volume when it is placed in the receptacle volume. The wall extends, preferably, to the top of the top edge of the larger hollow body to be placed in the receptacle volume when it is placed in the receptacle volume. The support walls preferably have in the vertical direction exactly the same height as the wall, i.e. they extend from the floor plate in the vertical direction to an upper edge of the wall. The slots are preferably open upwards, therefore they have one end open in the opposite direction to the floor plate. The tray can be used, in particular, with the following syringe formats: 1 ml, 8.15 mm diameter, with or without plunger stem / handle, the length of the glass body being 81.2 mm in the case of Vetter RNS (rigid needle cover) and 73.9 mm in the case of Vetter OVS; 1.5 ml, 10.85 mm diameter, with or without plunger stem / handle, with a body length of C / ZQ Ln / Zznz / E / YIAI crystal of 73.3 mm in the case of RNS and 63.5 mm in the case of Vetter OVS; 2.25 mm, diameter of 10.85 mm, both with and without plunger stem / handle, the length of the crystal body being 82.8 mm in the case of Vetter RNS and 75 mm in the case of Vetter OVS. As a closing part, Vetter OVS, Vetter TipCap, Vetter NS (needle cover) and Vetter RNS can be used. The length of the tray, measured in the longitudinal direction, preferably ranges from at least 300 mm to a maximum of 400 mm, preferably from a minimum of 325 mm to a maximum of 375 mm, preferably 350 mm. The width of the tray, measured in the width direction, preferably amounts to at least 200 mm up to a maximum of 300 mm, preferably at least 225 mm up to a maximum of 295 mm, preferably at least 250 mm up to a maximum of 280 mm, preferably at least 265 mm up to a maximum of 275 mm, preferably 270 mm. The tray is preferably configured as an insert in a larger transport container, and a plurality of such trays can be placed or inserted into the transport container. The dimensions of the tray, in particular its length and width, are preferably such that two such trays can be placed side by side in the transport container. The height of the tray is specifically dimensioned so that a plurality of such trays, in particular more than two trays, preferably four or more trays, can be placed one on top of the other in such a transport container. The height of the tray, measured vertically, is from the bottom edge of the floorboard to the top edge of the wall, from a minimum of 15 mm to a maximum of 30 mm, preferably from a minimum of 17.5 mm to a maximum of 25 mm, preferably from a minimum of 20 mm to a maximum of 23 mm, preferably 22 mm. If the tray also has feet, then its height, including the feet, is preferably from a minimum of 23 mm to a maximum of 30 mm, preferably from a minimum of 24 mm to a maximum of 28 mm, preferably 26 mm. The first width distance preferably ranges from a minimum of 6 mm to a maximum of 12 mm, preferably 9 mm. The second width distance preferably ranges from a minimum of 26 mm to a maximum of 30 mm, preferably 28 mm. The third width distance preferably ranges from a minimum of 36 mm to a maximum of 42 mm, preferably 39 mm. An individual clearance space preferably has a width, measured along the length of the tray, of a minimum of 6 mm to a maximum of 12 mm, preferably 9 mm. All clearance spaces preferably have an identical configuration. According to an improvement of the invention, the tray is provided to contain, as its at least sole fastening structure, two fastening structures arranged side-by-side in the width direction and separated from each other by a partition extending longitudinally from the first width section to the second width section. The tray thus has a total of two fastening structures, with, in particular, two fastening positions arranged side-by-side in the width direction in each case. The tray can then receive two rows of hollow medicinal bodies side-by-side in the width direction, which C / ZQ Ln / Zznz / E / YIAI means that the hollow bodies in the two rows, viewed in pairs along their length, are arranged one after the other in the tray. The tray can thus very functionally and neatly accommodate a plurality of medicinal hollow bodies. The screen extends, preferably, in the vertical direction to the top edge of the wall, that is, it is configured with the same height as the wall. According to an improvement of the invention, the first clamping wall of the at least single clamping structure is provided to have a front wall distance selected from a longitudinal section of the wall and the partition by a third width distance. This preferably applies to the two clamping structures of the tray when it has two clamping structures. The front wall in one of the two clamping structures is the longitudinal section of the wall; in the other of the two clamping structures, the front wall is the partition separating the two clamping structures from each other. A plunger rod of a hollow medicinal body can be advantageously housed in a region between the first clamping wall and the front wall if the hollow medicinal body has such a plunger rod. According to an improvement of the invention, the wall-width sections are provided to have a notch between the second retaining wall and the row of spacer elements. This notch advantageously allows for simple insertion with a fastener or manually by hand, for example, with a finger, to safely and easily place and remove hollow medicinal items, particularly those positioned on the margin. The notches, preferably, are open upwards, that is, they have one end open in the opposite direction to the floor plate. According to an improvement of the invention, the floor plate is provided to have a raised section in the region of the row of spacers. Specifically, the floor plate may deviate from a flat shape in the region of the spacers and have an upward bulge. The spacers are arranged within this raised section. This raised section, particularly in the region of the gaps, provides a support area for the hollow medicinal objects, separated from the rest of the tray's floor surface, so that they do not rest in the area between the second support wall and the row of spacers. The hollow objects can then be handled and gripped particularly easily. Furthermore, the raised section structurally makes the tray more rigid, thus providing it with particularly high stability.On the underside of the tray, the raised area on the upper surface creates a depression, which again facilitates particularly easy gripping and handling of the tray, either manually or mechanically. The raised area on the upper surface forms a gripping groove on the underside, making it possible, in particular, to easily remove the tray from a transport container. According to an improvement of the invention, the spacer elements are provided to have an elongated shape in a plan view. This represents a particularly simple and easy-to-produce configuration of the spacer elements. Alternatively, and preferably, the elements are expected to be cross-shaped in a view Γ / ZQ Ln / Zznz / E / YIAI of the plane. The spacer elements thus fulfill an additional function beyond spacing the hollow medicinal bodies by contributing to the greater rigidity and, consequently, the stability of the tray thanks to its cruciform structure. Thanks to this structural reinforcement, it is possible, in particular, to stack multiple trays high on top of each other. According to an improvement of the invention, the floor plate is provided to have footings on its underside. In a preferred embodiment, the tray may have four footings on its underside, in particular, one footing at each corner. The footings project downwards from the underside. They thus form supports on which the tray can be held, the underside being spaced from a resting plane on which the tray rests. The foot elements are preferably offset inwards from the outer edges of the floor plate by at least one wall thickness. Preferably, they are offset inwards by exactly the wall thickness. This, in particular, allows for the stable stacking of multiple trays one on top of the other, with the foot elements of the upper tray fitting into the receptacle of the lower tray and preferably resting against the inner face of the wall. Thanks to this precise fit of the foot elements, sliding of the stacked trays relative to each other is preferably prevented. According to an improvement of the invention, the tray is formed in one piece from a uniform material. The tray can be produced in a particularly simple and economical manner, in particular by injection molding. The tray is preferably produced in one piece from a uniform material, preferably plastic. The tray can be produced in a particularly simple and economical manner, in particular by injection molding. The plastic is preferably selected from a group consisting of: an autoclavable plastic, a machine-washable plastic, an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) copolymer, polycarbonate, and polypropylene. These plastics, in particular, allow for easy cleaning of the tray, especially by washing machines, and the trays are preferably also autoclavable. This, in particular, allows for repeated use of the tray, especially in recirculating processes. The invention also includes an inventive tray, or a tray according to one of the embodiments described above, in combination with a hollow medicinal body, in particular, one of the hollow medicinal bodies described above with which the tray is preferably used. The hollow medicinal body has a cylindrical section and a flange region. When the hollow medicinal body is positioned in the tray, the flange region is located between the first and second clamping walls. The flange region is then preferably engaged behind a second groove associated with the hollow medicinal body. The cylindrical section extends in the width direction of the tray through the second groove and into the space associated with that second groove, which is associated with the hollow medicinal body.The hollow medicinal body is thus held safely and stably in place. C / ZQ Ln / Zznz / E / YIAI the tray. In particular, it cannot slide inside the tray and cannot come into contact with other hollow medicinal bodies housed in the tray. This prevents, in particular, glass-to-glass contact between the hollow medicinal bodies arranged in the tray. The flange of the hollow medicinal body can be, in particular, a handle or a recoil stop. The hollow medicinal body is fitted with play—particularly depending on its outer diameter—at least in the clearance, and possibly also at least in the second slot. The dimensions of the tray are preferably adjusted so that a larger hollow medicinal body to be fitted in the tray can be positioned snugly without being tightly clamped, preferably with a little play, in the clamping position. If the hollow medicinal body is shaped like a syringe, then one injection end of the syringe is preferably positioned between the row of spacers and a rear front wall, the rear front wall being selected again from a longitudinal section of the wall and the partition, depending on which clamping structure is associated with the row of spacers.The partition, therefore, is in particular the rear front wall for a first support structure of the two support structures, and the front front wall for a second support structure of the two support structures. According to an improvement of the invention, a piston rod of the hollow medicinal body extends through the first groove towards the front wall. The third width is therefore available, in particular, for the arrangement of the piston rod. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the figures. These show: Figure 1 a first example of the making of a tray; Figure 2 a cross-section of the first example of tray embodiment along line AA depicted in Figure 1 and Figure 3 a representation of a plurality of trays, stacked one on top of the other, according to a second embodiment, in combination with hollow medicinal bodies. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Figure 1 shows a representation of a first embodiment of a tray 1 configured to accommodate a plurality of hollow medicinal bodies. The tray 1 comprises a floor plate 3 having an upper face 5 and a lower face 7. Along the outer edges 9 of the tray 1, a wall 11 is arranged on the upper face 5, encircling the entire circumference. The floor plate 3 and the wall 11 define a receptacle volume 13 for holding the hollow medicinal bodies. The tray 1 has a finite length along a longitudinal direction L and a finite width along a width direction B that is vertical to the longitudinal direction L. The tray 1 further comprises a clamping structure 15 for securing the hollow medicinal bodies. Tray 1 currently has in particular a first clamping structure 15 and a C / ZQ Ln / Zznz / E / YIAI second clamping structure 15'. The two clamping structures 15, 15' have an identical configuration, so in this respect only the configuration of the first clamping structure 15 is detailed. The corresponding elements of the second clamping structure 15' are represented in each case by reference signs with a prime. The clamping structure 15 has a first clamping wall 17 extending in the longitudinal direction L from a first section of width 21 of wall 11 to a second section of width 23 of the opposite wall 11. First slots 25 are formed in the first clamping wall 17 and are spaced apart from each other. The clamping structure 15 also has a second clamping wall 19, which is spaced from the first clamping wall 17 by a first width ΔB1. The second clamping wall 19 extends parallel to the first clamping wall 17 from the first section of width 21 to the second section of width 23. Second slots 27 are formed in the second clamping wall 19 and are spaced apart from each other. Each of the second slots 27 is aligned with a corresponding first slot 25 associated with it.The clamping structure 15 further comprises a row 29 of spacer elements 33, spaced from the clamping walls 17, 19 by a second width distance ΔB2. The row 29 extends parallel to the clamping walls 17, 19, and the spacer elements 33 are spaced from each other forming a plurality of gaps 31. The spacer elements 33 are arranged offset from the slots 25, 27 such that each of the gaps 31 is aligned in each case with one of the first slots 25 and one of the second slots 27. A clamping position 35 for a hollow medicinal body is thus defined by one of the gaps 31, the first slot 25 associated with it, and the second slot 27 associated with it, respectively, the clamping positions 35 extending in the width direction B. The first width distance ΔΒ1 is smaller than the second width distance ΔΒ2. The first support structure 15 and the second support structure 15' are arranged side by side in the width direction B and separated from each other by a partition 37 that extends in the longitudinal direction L from the first section of width 21 to the second section of width 23. The first support wall 17 is distanced from a front wall 39 by a third width distance ΔΒ3. The front wall 39 is, in this case, a longitudinal section 41 of wall 11. The first support wall 17' of the second support structure 15' is also distanced from another front wall 39' by the third width distance ΔΒ3. In this case, the additional front wall 39' is the partition 37. The sections of width 21, 23 of wall 11 each have a notch 43 between the second support wall 19 and the row 29 of spacer elements 33. Floor plate 3 has a 45° elevation in the region of row 29 of spacer elements 33. The spacer elements 33 are arranged at the 45° elevation. In the first example of implementation, represented in figure 1, the spacer elements 33 are formed in a cruciform shape in a plan view. Floor plate 3 has on its underside 7 foot elements 47 that project from the underside 7. The foot elements 47 are preferably arranged offset within the C / ZQ Ln / Zznz / E / YIAI outer edges 9 of the floor board 3 in at least one wall thickness of the wall 11, preferably in the wall thickness. Tray 1 is formed, in particular, in one piece and from a uniform material, preferably plastic. The plastic is preferably selected from a group consisting of: an autoclavable plastic, a machine-washable plastic, an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer, polycarbonate, and polypropylene. Figure 2 shows a cross-section of tray 1 according to the first embodiment along line AA shown in Figure 1. The first width distance ΔB1, the second width distance ΔB2, and the third width distance ΔB3 are marked in Figure 2. It is also noted in Figure 2 that the height of tray 1, measured upwards, is 26 mm, including foot element 47. The height without foot element 47 is 22 mm. Figure 3 shows a representation of a plurality of trays 1 stacked one on top of the other according to a second embodiment, in combination with a plurality of hollow medicinal bodies 49. Identical elements or those having the same function are designated with the same reference symbol, and reference is made in this respect to the preceding description. For clarity of representation, however, only one of the hollow bodies 49 is designated with the corresponding reference symbol, as well as with other reference symbols relating to that hollow body 49. In particular, the foot elements 47 enable stable stacking of the plurality of trays 1 one on top of the other without the risk of the individual trays 1 sliding relative to each other. Specifically, the foot elements 47 of the upper trays 1 in each case fit into the receptacle volumes 13 of the lower trays 1 and are preferably supported on the inner face of the respective wall 11. In the second example of tray 1 implementation, the spacer elements 33, 33' are formed in an elongated manner, as seen in a plan view. The hollow medicinal bodies 49 are currently formed, in particular, as syringes. Only one of the hollow medicinal bodies 49 is described in more detail below. The hollow medicinal bodies 49 are preferably configured identically or at least similarly in this respect. The medicinal body 49 described in more detail has a cylindrical section 51 and a flange region 53, the flange region 53 being disposed between the first clamping wall 17 and the second clamping wall 19. This is engaged behind a second recess 27 associated with the hollow medicinal body 49. The cylindrical section 51 extends in the width direction B of the tray 1 through the second recess 27 and into the free space 31 associated with the second recess 27, which in turn is associated with the hollow medicinal body 49. A plunger rod 55 of the hollow medicinal body 49 extends through the first puff 25 in the direction of the front wall 39. The flange region 53 of the hollow medicinal body 49 extends through the first slit 25 towards the front wall 39. The flange region is preferably configured as a handle or as a recoil stop. P / ZQ Ln / Zznz / E / YIAI Unlike the representation selected here, however, hollow medicinal bodies 49 that are not yet mounted can also be accommodated in tray 1, i.e., those that, in particular, do not yet have any flange region 53 and / or any plunger stem 55.
