DESCRIPTION OF A PRESENTLY PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0088] Between the individual packages 1, 2 there are parting joints 11, and each individual package 1, 2 has a front side 44 and a lateral surface 46, wherein the front side 44 is opposite a back side 45.

[0089] The sleeve-like individual packages 1, 2 each form a container opening 14 that is open on the top, and in the interior of the container opening 14—by way of example—a push-in holder 10 to hold medical implant screws is shown.

[0090] The lateral connecting means between the individual packages 1, 2 can be configured in a number of different ways.

[0091] In the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 3, the right side of the figure shows that a connecting element 6 that is open on the bottom has lateral lugs as illustrated in FIG. 2 and can be inserted into a corresponding undercut groove 8 of a mating element 9.

[0092] Instead of a connecting element 6 open on the bottom as shown on the right side in FIG. 3, there can also be a connecting element 7 that is open on the back.

[0093] The configuration of the mating connecting means that can be easily detached from each other by a relative force between the individual packages 1, 2, can be anything that is desired. Various other connecting means of the prior art can also be used, such as those that are described, for example, in WO 99/17 910 A1 or in US 2002/0079313 A1.

[0094] While FIG. 5 illustrates the connection principle of the individual packages 1, 2 illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 4, FIG. 5 shows that each individual package can be lined up side-by-side in a row with a movement in the direction of the arrow with the lateral surface 46 of the existing packaging block 3.

[0095] As a variant of this design, FIG. 6 shows that a plurality of individual packages can also form a cohesive packaging block 5, and that individual packaging blocks 5 can be connected with one another side-by-side in a row by means of the mechanical connecting means 6, 8, 9, as illustrated in FIG. 5.

[0096] Accordingly, FIGS. 7 to 10 all show different possible combinations that can be used to continue the individual packages shown there in the form of packaging blocks 5, 5a, 5b, 5c in any desired fashion.

[0097] While FIGS. 7 to 9 show individual packaging blocks 5, 5a, 5b, 5c of different lengths, it will be clear to a person skilled in the art that the different length packaging blocks 5, 5a, 5b, 5c can also be connected to one another side-by-side in a row with the mechanical connecting means illustrated in FIG. 5 and separated from one another.

[0098] FIG. 6 also shows that the packaging blocks formed from a plurality of individual packages can be attached to a holding plate 15, for which purpose a board frame 16 can be used.

[0099] FIG. 1, in comparison to FIG. 3, shows that the upper surrounding container opening 14 can be provided with an additional coating 13 before the application of associated label strips 17 (see FIG. 11). Therefore, the container edge 12 is in the form of the sealing surface.

[0100] FIG. 11 shows as a first exemplary embodiment a label strip 17 that consists of a plurality of individual labels 18, 19, 20 that are connected to one another, each of which is detachably separated by means of parting edges 32.

[0101] As indicated in the general description, there are special difficulties in separating an individual package 1 in the direction of the arrow 53 from the rest of the group of individual packages, because the shear movement (relative movement between the individual package 1 and 2 in the vicinity of the parting line 11) must also tear the parting edge 32 of the label strip 17.

[0102] As explained below, there are no particular problems with regard to the front edge portion 35 and the rear edge portion 33, because these are moved by the shear motion in the same plane relative to each other and tear off easily.

[0103] The problem consists in the separation of the upper edge portion 34, which relates to the closing sheet 23 of the label strip. This closing sheet 23 must specifically adhere to the encircling container edge 12 absolutely securely and in a sealed manner and may not be lifted by the resulting thrust force in the direction of the arrow 53.

[0104] The invention therefore teaches the measures described below.

[0105] The label strip 17 illustrated in FIG. 11 consists of a fibrous fleece-like, membranous textile material that is commercially available under the tradename “Tyvek”. Adhesively attached to the backing 21, on the front side, are one or more identification strips 22 that can also be detached as illustrated in FIG. 12.

[0106] The closing sheet 23 and the backing 21 are made of a single piece of material and are continued toward the rear into an additional backing 25 on the back side.

[0107] On this rear backing 25, a pull tab 24 can be formed which projects beyond the backing 25, as illustrated in FIG. 13.

[0108] It is possible to detach the pull tab 24 together with the backing 25 from the back side of the container, or only to tear off the pull tab 24 by itself, and thus also the closing sheet 23, whereby the closing sheet 23 remains connected to the backing 21 along a folded edge 28.

[0109] In another configuration, the folded edge 28 can also be in the form of a perforation edge to guarantee that the closing sheet 23 can be pulled completely off the backing 21, and the backing 21 then remains adhering to the front side 44 of the individual package.

[0110] FIGS. 14, 14a and 15 illustrate a second exemplary embodiment of the label strip 17 which consists of a different type of individual label 18a.

[0111] A plurality of individual labels 18a then also form a label strip which, for purposes of illustration only, is shown not connected together.

[0112] Accordingly, FIGS. 14 to 18 describe only an individual label.

[0113] FIG. 14 shows that the second embodiment of an individual label 18a of this type consists of a backing 21, to the front side of which an identification strip 22 is adhesively attached.

[0114] The backing 21 transitions toward the closing sheet 23 across a folded edge 28 into the closing sheet 23, wherein the figure shows that located in the vicinity of the closing sheet 23 there is a middle membrane area 29 that can be square, rectangular or round.

[0115] The membrane surface 29 can be any desired shape and is characterized by the fact that it does not have an adhesive layer either on the top side or on the back side, to guarantee a membranous entrance to the container opening 14 and the interior of the individual package 1.

[0116] The surrounding edge that extends around the membrane surface 29 is called the peripheral area 30, and can be coated on its back side with a sealing varnish or another adhesive.

[0117] Adjacent to the top side of the closing sheet 23 is a pull tab 24. It does not have the rear backing 25 that is illustrated in FIG. 11. Accordingly, this individual label does not extend across the back side 45 of the individual package.

[0118] FIG. 14 shows that the membrane surface 29 is uncoated and forms an open passage for vapor or gas sterilization means.

[0119] FIG. 14a shows a section along the center longitudinal line through FIG. 14, with a slight variation.

[0120] First, the figure shows that the entire back side of the individual label 18a is provided with a sealable coating 27 which consequently also extends over the membrane surface 29. If the thickness of the coating 27 is not too great, at the same time a free passage of vapor or gas sterilization means through the membrane surface 29 and through the coating 27 that closes this membrane surface is guaranteed.

[0121] Therefore, two different embodiments are illustrated, wherein in the first embodiment the membrane surface 29 is uncoated, while in the second embodiment illustrated in FIG. 14a the membrane surface is closed with the sealable coating 27.

[0122] The identification strip 22, which can also be provided with an adhesive layer 38 as illustrated in FIG. 18, is adhesively attached to the front side—in the vicinity of the backing 21.

[0123] FIG. 15 shows the back side of the individual label illustrated in FIG. 14, and shows that on the back side there is an open space 31 that can be provided with an adhesive layer, although that is not necessary.

[0124] FIG. 18 shows a section through the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 14, and shows that the sealable coating 27 does not extend over the membrane surface 29, but leaves it uncoated.

[0125] Otherwise, the same reference numbers are used for the same parts, wherein it should also be added that the pull tab 24 is connected by means of a folded edge 26 with the material of the backing sheet 21.

[0126] FIG. 18 also shows that in the vicinity of the closing sheet 23 there is a sealable coating 27 that ensures an absolutely tight closure with the encircling container opening 14, while in the same plane, but below it and on the back side of the backing sheet 21, there is a different type of coating 39 which is preferably in the form of a simple adhesive layer.

[0127] However, this coating 39 does not have to be sealable.

[0128] No adhesive layer is applied to the backside of the pull tab 24, to make it easily accessible.

[0129] FIG. 16 shows the label strip 17 illustrated in FIG. 11 in a plan view, and shows that the individual labels 18, 19, 20 that are connected to one another are connected to one other by means of vertical parting edges 32.

[0130] Each parting edge 32 is divided into the top edge part 33, the middle edge part 34 and the bottom edge part 35.

[0131] The edge parts 33 and 35 have the same parting characteristics, while the middle edge part 34 has a different parting characteristic.

[0132] The figure also shows that in the vicinity of the closing sheet 23, there is a peripheral area 30 with a high-strength sealable coating.

[0133] FIG. 17 shows, as a variant of the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 18, the other exemplary embodiment of a label strip 17a, which consists of the individual labels 18a, 19a at 20a, and wherein in the vicinity of a continuous parting edge 32, an edge part 34 is defined that is located in the vicinity of the closing sheet 23 and is continued into the edge part 35 that extends downward.

[0134] Different pull tabs 24 can be present in any shape desired.

[0135] The middle edge part 34 therefore extends between the intersecting points 36 and 37. It must then be ensured that during the separation of the individual labels 18, 19, 20 or 18a, 19a, 20a along the edge part 34, in no case is the peripheral area 30 that is sealed all around damaged.

[0136] To solve this problem, the invention teaches a variety of measures that will be described in greater detail below.

[0137] FIG. 19 shows a diagram of forces in which the parting force FT is plotted on the ordinate and the parting time t that is required to separate the connection between the individual labels is plotted on the abscissa.

[0138] At the zero point of the coordinate system, the parting force FT in the form of a peeling force 42 begins to act. It increases in the direction of the arrow 41 and in any case must exceed the maximum connecting force between the individual labels 18, 19, 20 in the vicinity of the edge part 34 to guarantee a separation of the edge part 34.

[0139] A force differential 43 is indicated as the difference between the maximum connecting force and the minimum sealing force in the vicinity of the container opening 14 in the surrounding peripheral area 30 that must in any case be overcome for the peeling force 42 to be effective. Therefore, there must always be a force differential 43 that maintains a safety margin to guarantee that the minimum sealing force SS is always greater than the parting force FT.

[0140] The edge part 34 is therefore torn at the parting point 40, without overcoming the minimum sealing force or adhesive force in the surrounding peripheral area 30.

[0141] FIG. 20, on the other hand, illustrates the relative movement of the edge parts 33 and 35 that run in the longitudinal direction, wherein the displacement force between the individual packages 1, 2, starting from the zero point of the coordinate system acts in the direction indicated by the arrow 41 and the displacement force is selected so that the tear strength along the edge part 35 and 33 is exceeded, so that these edge parts tear off. The tear strength along the edge parts 33 and 35 is then exceeded and the edge parts are thus separated from each other because the force relationships illustrated in FIG. 19 with reference to the center edge part 34 must be preserved.

[0142] The force differential 48 shows that the adhesive force in the shear direction that the backing sheet 21 has on the front and back sides 44, 45 is not exceeded. In other words, the label must remain adhering to the front and back sides and only the edge part 33, 35 is torn off

[0143] A separation between the edge parts 33, 35 attached to each other therefore occurs at the parting point 47.

[0144] FIGS. 21 to 26 show different embodiments of parting edges 32 of this type.

[0145] In the embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 21 to 23, the parting edge 32 of a label strip 17a is shown, while FIG. 24 shows a parting edge 32c for a label strip 17.

[0146] FIG. 21 shows that the critical edge part 34 can be formed by an open perforation 49 that extends to the folded edge 28.

[0147] The open perforation 49 is accordingly always open on the end and transitions downward into a perforated edge part 35 that has the perforation 50.

[0148] The perforation can be in different embodiments. It can include spot punchouts, linear punchouts or any other type of punchouts. It can also be in the form of microperforation.

[0149] In the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 22, on the other hand, the open perforation 49 is always closed on the end by means of connecting webs 51, so that when the entire parting edge 32 is torn off, first the two facing connecting webs 51 must be torn off before the open perforation 49 can be opened and then the subsequent peeling force continues into the perforation 50 of the lower edge part 35.

[0150] FIG. 23 shows a variation of the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 22, in which, instead of a continuous open perforation 49 with top and bottom end-side connecting webs 51, the connecting webs can extend parallel and at a distance from one another across the open perforation 49, so that there are empty spaces between them as the open perforation 49.

[0151] FIG. 24 shows an individual label of the type provided for a label strip 17, wherein all the explanations of FIGS. 21 to 23 above also apply for the edge part shown 34 shown there.

[0152] It is shown purely by way of example that the open perforation 49 is continuous, although all the other embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 21 to 23 can be used.

[0153] It is also shown that the rear edge part 33, which is likewise provided with a perforation 50, is also adjacent to the bottom perforated edge part 35.

[0154] In the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 25, instead of an open perforation 49, there can also be a perforation section 52 in the vicinity of the critical edge part 34, wherein this perforation section 52 is preferably in the form of microperforation. Otherwise, the same reference numbers are used for the same parts.

[0155] FIG. 26 is a schematic illustration of a tearing process in a lateral view, when a label strip with an individual label illustrated in FIG. 25 is torn off. It is apparent that the separation force FT to the left must result in a tearing of the edge part 34, while in the neighboring part the adhesion force FS must be maintained, to prevent a tearing of material in the neighboring area.

[0156] FIG. 27 illustrates an additional exemplary embodiment for labeling a packaging block 3-5. To simplify the description, only the label strip 17b according to the invention is illustrated, which is characterized by the fact that in a prior step, the individual labels that are oriented parallel next to one another and are attached to one another are completely separated from one another by cut lines 54. Therefore, they are no longer connected at any point. To guarantee the secure positioning of the individual labels that have already been separated, the individual labels are fixed in position by an auxiliary strip 55 before, during or after the application of the cut lines 54.

[0157] It is preferable if the auxiliary strip 55 is adhesively connected with its longitudinal dimension above and across the individual labels arranged parallel and detached next to one another with its underside adhesive surface 56 so that it covers the sealable closing sheets 23. It is especially important to secure them in position in this area because the covering sheets 23 must be sealed with their sealable undersides in the proper position on the container edge 12 surrounding the container openings 14.

[0158] It is therefore preferred if, during the sealing process, the auxiliary strip 55 remains on the individual labels. Otherwise, all the individual labels 18, 19, 20; 18a, 19a, 20a; 18b,

[0159] 19b, 20b that are explained in greater detail above can be used.

[0160] Instead of the use of a single auxiliary strip 55, which is preferably adhesively attached so that it runs over all the individual labels in the vicinity of their closing sheets, in another embodiment of the invention, the auxiliary strip can either be adhesively attached in another position over all the individual labels or more than one auxiliary strip can be used.

[0161] After the closing sheets 23 of the individual labels have all been sealed on the container openings 14, the at least one auxiliary strip 55 can be peeled off before, during or after the sealing process.

[0162] The projecting additional sealable parts of the individual labels can then be adhesively connected to the other surfaces of the individual package with a suitable application tool.

[0163] One advantage of the technical teaching of the independent claim 15 and of the additional claims that make reference to it is that when the labeled individual packages 1, 2 are separated from the packaging block 3, 5, there is no longer any danger that a tearable parting edge between the individual labels will damage the neighboring label, because the parting edge is no longer there.
