  • Patent number: 7214214
    Abstract: A sealing rubber closure is provided for use with a syringe/container specified by ISO (the International Organization of Standardization) and having a Luer nozzle to be inserted into a Luer-nozzle-receiving part of the sealing rubber closure. The Luer-nozzle-receiving part is configured, on a side of an inner end portion thereof, in an untapered cylindrical form to assure tight-fitted insertion of a free end portion of the Luer nozzle and, on a side of a Luer-nozzle-receiving opening thereof, in a tapered, substantially cylindrical form to assure tight-fitted insertion of a basal end portion of the Luer nozzle. A plastic film is laminated on the sealing rubber closure at least in an area of the Luer-nozzle-receiving part, where a free end of the Luer nozzle is to be maintained in contact with the sealing rubber closure.

  • Publication number: 20060054586
    Abstract: A container unit for a drug is composed of a container, which is formed of a cylindrical drug-solution-containing portion and a drug-solution-filling neck portion, and a rubber closure for sealing the drug-solution-filling neck portion. The rubber closure comprises a disk-shaped head portion and a substantially cylindrical leg portion arranged on a lower wall of the head portion. The container is provided with a flat surface formed on a side of its inner wall at a boundary between the drug-solution-containing portion and the drug-solution-filling neck portion such that a lower end wall of the leg portion of the rubber closure can be brought into close contact with the flat surface, and at least a side wall of the drug-solution-containing portion forms a cornerless, rounded surface on a side where a drug solution is to be contained.
