  • Publication number: 20030075469
    Abstract: The invention relates to a container, in particular, a film bag, with a withdrawal and injection system for medical solutions, which comprises a base section (2), which may be welded into the bag, with a withdrawal and an injection piece (3, 4), which are linked together by a flat bridge (35). The flat bridge is extended in the form of a bulge, between the withdrawal piece and the injection piece, which forms a closeable opening. Said opening in the container serves as a way of filing the container, by means of a filling dowel, or for transport and positioning, by mean of a fixing dowel. Furthermore a container, in particular a bag, with such a withdrawal and injection system is described.

  • Patent number: 5257986
    Abstract: A container (1) is described for the separate sterile storage of at least two substances and for mixing said substances. Said container comprises a first chamber (2) for storage of a powdery substance (17) and a second chamber (3) for storage of a liquid. While said second chamber (3) preferably consists of polymer layers, chamber (2) is manufactured from a rigid material, prefeably polycarbonate, hard-PVC or polypropylene. Both chambers are connected via the tubular section (10) which is closed by the break-off part (4). For mixing both substances the break-off part (4) is broken off along the weakened line (7). The mixture is taken off through the outlet opening (6). A separate storage of two substances and the sterile mixing of said substances is possible by means of the container (1).

  • Patent number: 5207509
    Abstract: The invention relates to a multichamber bag (1), the bag chambers (2, 3) of which are separated via a separating means (4), the squeeze-off means (5) of which temporarily separates the bag contents. To avoid being restricted to specific sheet types in the use of the material for the multichamber bag, in the region of the subsequent mixing opening an elastic sheet strip is arranged which serves as seal on actuation of the squeeze-off means (5).

  • Patent number: 5129894
    Abstract: The present invention describes package units for medical purposes, in particular for receiving and/or storing sterilizable preparations for parenteral uses or dialysis solutions, comprising a container having at least one discharge spout and consisting of polyamide 66 or a laminate of polyamide 66 sheet and polyolefin sheet, the polyolefin sheet being disposed on the side facing the liquid to be stored and the sheet of polyamide 66 being disposed on the outside and the two sheets being bonded together in usual manner by means of an adhesive. The package units may further comprise an inner container or an outer container. The package unit is made in that a container having at least one discharge spout is made from polyamide 66 or the aforementioned laminate, said container filled with the liquid to be stored, then sealed and sterilized and possibly subsequently surrounded after cooling and drying with an outer container of polymeric material.

  • Patent number: 4561110
    Abstract: A bag for storing liquids for medical purposes such as blood and liquids for parenteral administration and which has neutral physiological properties is made of polyolefin material that is more specially in the form of a polyethylene film for the body of the bag and a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate, with more specially 20 to 32% by weight of vinyl acetate, as a material for the hose connector. The copolymer is welded to the material of the body of the bag and then cross linked.
