The invention relates to a welding tool and a method for pulse welding films of plastic for medical packs formed as bags. The invention generally provides for the film material that has been plastified during welding, and is consequently free-flowing, to be specifically displaced by increasing the sealing surface area. The displaced film material can for instance compensate for dimensional and form tolerances. At the same time, however, the strength of the welded seam region, which adjoins the interior space of the bag, is not reduced.

The invention relates to a device for welding a connection region of a film to a connection part having an axial direction. In the case of conventional devices, there is the risk of steep workpiece edges causing uncontrolled weak spots in the film and in the weld seam. According to the invention, the film is extended in a controlled manner such that the film has a length reserve. The film is extended in such a way that the film has a deformation cross-section that runs out such that the deformation is not visible on the final product. In this connection, the invention further relates to a use of a film, to a method for welding, to a method for producing bags, to a system for producing bags, and to a bag.

A co-injection nozzle for an injection moulding device for producing multi-layered injection-moulded products. The nozzle includes: a central bore; a valve needle for opening and closing a nozzle opening; an annular inner melt channel for the first melt; an annular central melt channel for a second melt; and an annular outer melt channel for the first melt. The inner, central and outer melt channels are fluidically combined in the region of the nozzle tip to form a concentrically-layered melt stream. The co-injection nozzle has a back-flow barrier, integrated into the central bore, for the second melt, this barrier formed by a cut-out in the valve needle and by a melt channel for the second melt, the channel penetrating the central bore. In the open position of the back-flow barrier, the cut-out is located such that the second melt can flow through the melt channel, whilst flowing in the central bore past the valve needle.

Pharmacologically active implants, in particular subcutaneous implants, intrauterine devices, and intravaginal rings, are provided herein. Methods for forming an active ingredient-containing core are described. Methods for laminating an active ingredient-containing core to form a rate-controlling sheath are also described.

A container, in particular in ampoule form, and consisting entirely or predominantly of plastic materials, having a container body (10) for receiving a filling product (12), which can be removed via a releasable container opening (22) after a closure part (18) has been removed, which is detachably connected to the neck part (14) of the container body (10) along a separation line (20) in an unopened position, is characterized in that, in the unopened position, a conically extending wall (36) on the neck part (14) on the container body (10) and a conically (38) or cylindrically extending wall (38a) on the closure part (18) adjoin the separation line (20), and that these walls (36, 38, 38a) delimit at least part of an annular space (40, 40a), one end of which opens out into the environment and the other end of which opens out into the separation line (20).

The invention relates to a method for the manufacture of at least one flexible plastic container, according to which method each container (10) comprises two separate walls (12, 13) facing one another joined at their circumference by a sealed peripheral edge (14), said separate walls defining a storage space of the container (10). According to the invention, at least the following stages are realized: a) Forming a pile of two sheets (26, 27) of plastic material, said sheets (26, 27) being laid one against the other, the surfaces which face one another of these sheets (26, 27) being placed directly in contact with one another without any element acting as an interface, b) Simultaneously shaping said sheets (26, 27) thus laid one against the other in order to define said at least one container (10) without having previously separated these sheets, at least each container (10) being partially formed, said sheets (26, 27) being maintained lying one against the other in at least one section of the areas of said sheets (26, 27) intended to constitute said peripheral edge (14) of each container (10) during this shaping and c) Sealing at least partially the areas of said sheets (26, 27) intended to constitute said peripheral edge (14) of at least each container (10).

A flow path sealing structure according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, which is disposed on a way of a flow path formed by fusion bonding a pair of resin sheets that are superimposed on each other, includes a widened portion surrounded by a widened seal portion formed by fusion bonding together the pair of resin sheets around a periphery thereof, and one end and another end of which are in communication with the flow path, together with being formed to be wider than the flow path, and a weakly sealed portion formed to extend in a widthwise direction in the widened portion, and which partitions the widened portion in a liquid-tight and airtight manner into the one end and the other end, together with being capable of being opened by increasing an internal pressure of the widened portion.

A coupling assembly for an ostomy appliance that has a bag side flange having a bag and an integrated element having an accordion membrane and a body side flange, the integrated element configured to be selectively coupled to the bag side flange. The integrated element is formed in a single manufacturing process.

A sealing device configured to create a frangible seal in a sample processing device is described. Methods of using the device to create one or more frangible seals in a sample processing device are also described.

The invention relates to a tube head (1, 2) intended to form a packaging, the head (3, 6) being intended to be welded to a tubular skirt (8, 9) in order to form the said packaging, and the tube head (1 2) being thermoformed from a sheet (20, 21). The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing such a tube head (1, 2) and a tube with said head (3, 6).
