Title
(DE) VORRICHTUNG ZUM VERSCHLIEßEN VON PHARMAZEUTISCHEN BEHÄLTNISSEN
(EN) DEVICE FOR CLOSING PHARMACEUTICAL CONTAINERS
(FR) DISPOSITIF POUR FERMER DES CONTENANTS PHARMACEUTIQUES
Abstract
(DE) Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung (10) zum Verschließen von pharmazeutischen Behältnissen (18) mittels Verschlüssen (22), mit einer ersten Halteeinrichtung (12) zur Aufnahme mindestens eines pharmazeutischen Behältnisses (18), einer zweiten Halteeinrichtung (14) zur Aufnahme mindestens eines Verschlusses (22) zum Verschließen einer Öffnung (24) des Behältnisses (18), wobei die beiden Halteeinrichtungen (12, 14) derart aufeinander ausrichtbar oder ausgerichtet sind, dass der Verschluss (22) und die Öffnung (24) des Behältnisses (18) miteinander fluchten, wobei ein Stempel (34) und ein Gegenelement (40) vorgesehen sind, wobei der Stempel (34) und/oder das Gegenelement (40) mittels einer Antriebseinrichtung (36) antreibbar und relativ zueinander verfahrbar sind, wobei, wenn der Stempel (34) und das Gegenelement (40) bei einem Antrieb der Antriebseinrichtung (36, 42) aufeinander zu verfahren werden, der Stempel (34) derart auf den Verschluss (22) oder auf das Behältnis (18) einwirkt, dass der Verschluss (22) mit dem Behältnis (18) in Kontakt gelangen und zum Verschließen der Öffnung (24) des Behältnisses (18) durch Zusammenwirken von Stempel (34) und Gegenelement (40) auf das Behältnis (18) aufgepresst werden kann, wobei ein Kraftsensor (44) vorgesehen ist, mittels dem eine durch den Verschlussstempel (34) beim Aufpressen des Verschlusses (22) auf das Behältnis (18) aufgebrachte Kraft erfasst werden kann.
(EN) The invention relates to a device (10) for closing pharmaceutical containers (18) by means of closures (22), comprising a first holding device (12) for receiving at least one pharmaceutical container (18) and comprising a second holding device (14) for receiving at least one closure (22) for closing an opening (24) of the container (18), the two holding devices (12, 14) being aligned or being alignable towards each other such that the closure (22) and the opening (24) of the container (18) are flush with each other. A punch (34) and a counter element (40) are provided, and the punch (34) and/or the counter element (40) can be driven and moved relative to each other by means of a drive device (36), wherein when the punch (34) and the counter element (40) are moved towards each other during a driving operation of the drive device (36, 42), the punch (34) acts on the closure (22) or on the container (18) such that the closure (22) comes into contact with the container (18) and can be pressed onto the container (18) in order to close the opening (24) of the container (18) by means of an interaction between the punch (34) and the counter element (40). A force sensor (44) is provided, by means of which the force applied to the container (18) by the closure punch (34) when the closure (22) is pressed onto the container can be detected.
(FR) L'invention concerne un dispositif (10) pour fermer des contenants pharmaceutiques (18) au moyen de fermetures (22), comprenant un premier dispositif de retenue (12) pour recevoir au moins un contenant pharmaceutique (18), un deuxième dispositif de retenue (14) pour recevoir au moins une fermeture (22) pour fermer une ouverture (24) du contenant (18), les deux dispositifs de retenue (12, 14) étant orientés ou pouvant être orientés l'un par rapport à l'autre de façon que la fermeture (22) et l'ouverture (24) du contenant (18) soient alignées ; un poinçon (34) et un contre-élément (40) étant prévus, le poinçon (34) et/ou le contre-élément (40) pouvant être entraînés et déplacés l'un par rapport à l'autre au moyen d'un dispositif d'entraînement (36), le poinçon (34) et le contre-élément (40) étant déplacés l'un vers l'autre pendant un processus d'entraînement du dispositif d'entraînement (36, 42), le poinçon (34) agissant sur la fermeture (22) ou sur le contenant (18) de façon que la fermeture (22) vienne en contact avec le contenant (18) et soit pressée sur le contenant (18) de manière à fermer l'ouverture (24) du contenant (18) par interaction entre le poinçon (34) et le contre-élément (40) ; un capteur de force (44) étant prévu et permettant de détecter une force appliquée par l’intermédiaire du poinçon de fermeture (34) lorsque la fermeture (22) est pressée sur le contenant (18).
