TablettenspenderTablet dispenser

Die Neuerung betrifft einen Tablettenspender, der eine vorteilhafte Form hat und es erlaubt, aus seinem gestapelten Inhalt die Tabletten einzeln zu entnehmen.The innovation concerns a tablet dispenser that has an advantageous shape and allows the tablets to be removed individually from its stacked contents.

Übliche Tablettenröhrchen sind rund und haben damit eine für Transport und Stapelung ungünstige Form. U.a. aus diesem Grund werden sie in der Regel zusammen mit der Gebrauchsinformation in Umkartons verpackt. Eine solche relativ aufwendige Verpackung entspricht nicht der heutigen Auffassung, daß durch einfachere Verpackungen die unnötige Entstehung von Müll vermieden werden muß. Auch sollten die gebrauchten Verpackungen aus einheitlichem Material bestehen, um ein Recycling zu erleichtern.Common tablet tubes are round and therefore have a poor shape for transport and stacking. For this reason, among others, they are usually packed in outer boxes together with the instructions for use. Such relatively complex packaging does not correspond to today's view that the unnecessary creation of waste must be avoided by using simpler packaging. The used packaging should also be made of a uniform material to make recycling easier.

Es wurde daher ein Tablettenspender entwickelt, der vorzugsweise aus einheitlichem Material hergestellt ist, stapelbar ist und es ermöglicht, ohne besondere Vorsichtsmaßnahmen jeweils nur eine Tablette zu entnehmen. Der Spender umfaßt ein Röhrchen mit quadratischem Querschnitt (wobei die Kanten vorzugsweise abgerundet sind), das gewünschtenfalls innen Führungsschienen aufweist, um ein Verkanten der Tabletten zu vermeiden. Parallel zur Längsachse des Röhrchens ist ein Fach angebracht, das die Gebrauchsinformation aufnimmt. Ein Bügel oder Haken über der Öffnung des Röhrchens bewirkt, daß jeweils nur eine Tablette entnommen werden kann.A tablet dispenser has therefore been developed which is preferably made of a uniform material, is stackable and allows only one tablet to be removed at a time without special precautions. The dispenser comprises a tube with a square cross-section (the edges are preferably rounded) which, if desired, has guide rails on the inside to prevent the tablets from jamming. A compartment is attached parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tube to hold the instructions for use. A bracket or hook above the opening of the tube ensures that only one tablet can be removed at a time.

Der Tablettenspender gemäß der Neuerung ist in den Figuren 1 bis 9 ganz oder im Detail dargestellt. Fig. zeigt einen Spender 1 gemäß der Neuerung mitThe tablet dispenser according to the innovation is shown in Figures 1 to 9 in whole or in detail. Fig. shows a dispenser 1 according to the innovation with

zugeklapptem Deckel 2 und dem Fach 3 für die Gebrauchsinformation. Derselbe Spender ist in Figur 2 mit aufgeklapptem Deckel 2 wiedergegeben, so daß der Bügel 4 zusehen ist. Der Abstand seines quer zur Röhrchenlängsachse ausgerichteten Teils 4a von der Mündung la des Spenders ist so bemessen, daß eine Tablette 5 gerade in den Zwischenraum paßt und leicht seitlich entnommen werden kann.closed lid 2 and the compartment 3 for the instructions for use. The same dispenser is shown in Figure 2 with the lid 2 opened so that the bracket 4 can be seen. The distance of its part 4a, which is aligned transversely to the longitudinal axis of the tube, from the mouth la of the dispenser is such that a tablet 5 just fits into the gap and can be easily removed from the side.

Fig. 3 zeigt den Blick auf den geöffneten Spender und läßt den Bügel 4 erkennen. Der Schnitt durch den Spender quer zur Längsachse (Figur 4) macht deutlich, wie die Stabilisierungsschienen 6 angeordnet sind, die das Drehen/Verkanten der Tabletten verhindern. Figuren 5 und 6 zeigen zwei Außenansichten des neuen Spenders, Figur 7 gibt einen Schnitt durch den Spender parallel zur Längsachse wieder. Der Deckel 2 ist mit einem Filmscharnier 7 an dem Spender befestigt. Zur besseren Fixierung des Deckels kann dieser mit einem Rand 8 versehen sein, der beim Schließen in eine Nut 9 des Spenders einrastet. Um die Tabletten gegen Erschütterungen zu sichern, kann gemäß Figur 9 elastisches Material 10, etwa eine Feder oder elastischer Schaumstoff in das Röhrchen eingebaut werden. Auch kann an der Mündung la gegenüberliegenden Seite des Röhrchens ein steck- oder schraubbarer Verschluß 11 vorgesehen sein, der das Einfüllen der Tabletten erleichtert.Fig. 3 shows the view of the opened dispenser and allows the bracket 4 to be seen. The section through the dispenser transverse to the longitudinal axis (Fig. 4) makes it clear how the stabilizing rails 6 are arranged, which prevent the tablets from turning/tilting. Figs. 5 and 6 show two external views of the new dispenser, Fig. 7 shows a section through the dispenser parallel to the longitudinal axis. The lid 2 is attached to the dispenser with a film hinge 7. To better fix the lid, it can be provided with an edge 8, which snaps into a groove 9 in the dispenser when closed. To protect the tablets against vibrations, elastic material 10, such as a spring or elastic foam, can be built into the tube as shown in Fig. 9. A plug-in or screw-on closure 11 can also be provided on the mouth la on the opposite side of the tube, which makes it easier to fill the tablets.

Der Spender gemäß der Neuerung wird vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff hergestellt, doch können gewünschtenfalls auch andere Materialien oder Kombinationen verschiedener Materialien benutzt werden. Auch kann der Fachmann die EntnahmevorrichtungThe dispenser according to the innovation is preferably made of plastic, but if desired, other materials or combinations of different materials can also be used. The specialist can also

anders gestalten, etwa indem er einen über der Mündung des Röhrchens 1 diagonal angeordneten Bügel vorsieht, der die Funktion des Bügels oder Hakens 4 übernehmen kann.design it differently, for example by providing a bracket arranged diagonally above the mouth of the tube 1, which can take over the function of the bracket or hook 4.
