Patent number: 7661534Abstract: A containment (3;3a;3b;3c) comprises an outer box (2;2a;2b;3c) defining an inner space where a stack of individual pouches (1;1a) is arranged. The individual pouches each have a pocket (10) containing a product, e.g. a thin-film strip (FS), and are designed to be individually removed from the stack. The outer box (2;2a;2b;2c) comprises a closure (26;26a;26b;26c) for preventing/allowing access to the individual pouches (1;1a) and further comprises means (20;20a;20b;20c) for interacting with the pouches (1;1a) in a manner such as to allow access to the pocket (10) upon removing the pouch from the stack. The means (20;20a;20b;20c) for interacting with the pouches are arranged such that upon removing a pouch (1;1a) from the stack the pouch is opened along an essential part of its longitudinal extension and is completely removed from the outer box (2;2a;2b;2c) with no residual part of the pouch (1;1a) remaining in the outer box.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2006Date of Patent: February 16, 2010Assignee: Novartis, AGInventors: Christian Saclier, Marco Ackermann, Richard Miles, Matthew Grey
