Procedure and containment aura protection of children

of dangerous products

The invention relates to a method and a correspondingly designed safety container isuhi protection of children from dangerous products.

The number of poisoning accidents among children is growing every year »especially with the multiplication of dangerous products, such as Medicines, insecticides, detergents »Veterinary products, etc., The. are in use.

Mail has also found that the overwhelming majority of children involved in an accident are between 2 and 5 years old, which corresponds to the age "when the child grasps everything it encounters and is extremely sensitive to external impressions, gradually becoming one." acquires a certain knowledge of the objects and simple movements to open a can or other container, but is hardly able to

to carry out delicate handling. ■

The currently known and occasionally used complex ones Closures don't seem to be effective, likely therefore, because it takes a long time to open and it is complicated to close, so that the user ponders whether

Short. he them between two probably very / consecutive

Uses locks. In this way, the vast majority of accidents occur over a relatively short period of time. ^ the presence of adults.

The invention aims to overcome these disadvantages and difficulties by a protection that can be produced even by a person in a great hurry.

To achieve this object, the invention provides a method for Protection of children from dangerous products proposed, which is characterized by the fact that these products in an opaque Containers are included and the normal ones, too

counteracting reflexes leading to opening of the container I

vird by forcing careful handling for opening, however, by taking advantage of these same normal reflexes, instinctive and automatic closing is effected.

According to a further feature of the method according to the invention also becomes readily accessible at a point readily accessible by manipulation according to a child's ordinary reflexes is, an educating, an unpleasant invention generating Element arranged »

The child is thus in front of a container, pipe, box or the like. The contents of which it cannot determine, but which it can

009835/1196

especially it cannot open, as it does not have the required opening special manipulations come which even the immediate and ordinary reflexes of an adult before such Containers run in the opposite direction. However, an adult who knows the instructions for use or the code to open it can do these operations can be carried out quickly and without difficulty.

On the other hand, the closing takes place immediately and on the instinctively given Path. An adult, even if in a hurry or distracted, instinctively closes the container after removing the product, automatically actuates the lock and forces the special hand movements to restart the dangerous product to get.

The child himself is not attracted to the sight of the product inside the container and is mostly drawn to the ineffectiveness the movements that usually allow him to open a container, tube or the like, distracted. The uselessness His efforts can even lead to a disappointment which will dissuade the cattle from killing itself in the future to seek such an object and make it believe that it will not open.

In addition, the security container according to the invention can have an additional educational element, which is an attractive one Has appearance, but leaves an unpleasant impression. This element draws the child's attention away from the difficult-to-handle closure member, satisfies his desire to achieve a result and to know what is in the container, While the uncomfortable sensation imprints itself on his memory and will keep it from doing packaging in the future

009835/1196 _{BAD 0RIQINAL}

same kind touch or open to full.

The element that leaves an unpleasant impression can be the Form of colored harmless, but bad taste, for example bitter, spicy or the like. own sweets, tablets and the like. It can also turn out to be uncomfortable surface to be touched exist, vie a surface with harmless, but pricking tips, or also be an item with a nauseating smell

The color with which this element is coated is preferable chosen so that it leaves traces on the fingers and possibly lips of the child, so that the parents or others Adults the child's urge to research and, above all, the fact notice that the container was within its reach.

The invention also relates to security containers and packaging, who use this method.

Such a security container is characterized according to the invention through an opaque wall with an opening for removal of the products, a closure which prevents the removal of products through this opening, locking elements which these Lock the closure and be carried on the one hand by the closure and on the other hand by the container wall and locked solely by moving the closure into its open position and that only open by a combination of at least two shifts of elements according to a certain, not obvious program ^ possible, that only with very little Probability can be exercised by a person who is not familiar with this program.

009835/1196

Numerous combinations of locking members can be provided verden, however, in all cases the interlock is through a simple shift of the closure with respect to the container «· wall causes the shifting automatically by a packaging machine or instinctively by a user even when in a hurry or distracted.

Opening, on the other hand, requires very special handling, the one has to know and that of an uninstructed person does not which can be found. Opening by a child is therefore extremely unlikely, while in all cases the products are locked.

According to a further feature of the invention, the container has a visible marking which draws attention to a point on the wall different from the closure.

According to a further feature of the invention, the container has an independent secondary chamber with an easily removable lock and a harmless one, but for at least one the child's senses are provided with an unpleasant object placed in the adjoining chamber.

In this way, the child who grabbed such a container has distracted from the real closure and his attention through the outer marking on a different from this closure Point directed. There is no opening at this point or better yet a second, easily removable lock so that the child can gain the satisfaction of opening it of the Sohi has been successful, but it must establish that the content the same is unpleasant, which takes away the taste of it, another time with the same handling of a container

009835/1196

The safety container for dangerous products shown in FIGS. 1 and 4 consists of a cylindrical tube 1 , one end of which is open and carries two pins 3a and 3b, which are arranged at different heights, but both have an inclined upper surface. The wall of the tube 1 is cut around each of these pegs so that they are carried by tongues 4, 5 which are free near the peg, but are held at the opposite end to the body of the tube 1 itself. .

The closure used to close this security container 2 has an actual cover 6 which is provided on the inside with a ring 7 which has incisions on its upper side 8 is provided with a width at least equal to the width of the pins 3a and 3b. Only a single incision 9 opens into the lower one Part of the wreath.

The closure also has a ring 10, which by two each other opposite and over the upper part of the lid 6 gripping Claws 11 is axially immovable connected to it · The Ring 10 forms a ring provided with notches 12, at only one of the notches forms a free passage 13 for one or the other of the pins 3a and 3b.

The tongues 4 and 5 carrying the pins 3a and 3b are so elastic that that the rings 10 and 7 push them back into the interior of the tube by simply pressing the closure 2 onto the tube, to slide underneath, and the tongues then move away from each other again to open the lock 2 to lock the tube 1 and prevent it from being withdrawn. The pins 3a and 3b allow the closure to be displaced

009835/1196 ^ ₀ ORIGINAL

to the outside only if they are each located in one of the passage slots 9 and 11.

Fig. 2 shows this position of the closure in which the ring 10 is rotated so that the slot 13 is located exactly below the pin 3b, while the rotation of the cap 6 has brought the slot 9 exactly under the pin 3a. Obviously, in this position, the closure can be raised by a piece, the height of which corresponds to that of each of the pins 3a, 3b. It thus arrives in the position shown in FIG. 3, in which, however, it is blocked by the contact of the pin 3a with the ring 12 provided with incisions. A renewed rotation of the "ring 10 brings the slot 11 in front of this pin 3a (FIG. 4), whereupon the closure 2 can be pulled off completely.

Letters, numbers or characters designate the positions of the incisions and tenons on the outside of the closure 2, but the slots 9 and 11 are not specially marked. It is therefore necessary to know the code or instructions for use of the closure, while it is extremely difficult otherwise to open the encryption f-circuit, since it is necessary to rotate its two parts and must try every position by pressing because the rectangular recesses to open to to find the free passage. However, once this is known, the operations to be performed are extremely simple and can be carried out quickly. An adult can therefore only open the container with knowledge of the code or its instructions for use, while a child could only open it after extremely lengthy trial and error. Incidentally, a child would rather pull the latch than patiently turn it.

The lid can optionally consist of two or three similar, nested Lids consist of »which carry reference elements themselves, which are lined up in a line according to a code supplied by the manufacturer must be brought.

This tube 1 is preferably also at its dea closure opposite end with a simply clipped-on and therefore easy-to-pull auxiliary cover 14 closed, the one secondary chamber 16 separated from the main chamber 18 containing the dangerous products by a strictly hermetic partition 20 closes (Fig. 4). In this secondary chamber 16 are tablets, Dragees or other candies filled with a vivid color, which as a result are tempting to a child, but a bitter one or at least have a good taste »

The child, whose attention through the lid 14, it is easy opens, was deflected by the closure 2, discovered with pleasure the tablets 22, but is disappointed by their unpleasant taste and disgusted, which takes away the pleasure, the same attempt again with another container of a similar appearance to do.

Preferably the tablets or candies 22 are with a coloring agent coated, which not only looks tempting for the child, but also on the fingers and possibly leaves traces on the child's mouth so that parents can see the danger to which the child has been exposed. Of course the tablets or sweets are completely harmless.

Form a coded locking system provided at the end of the Tubus26 (fig. 5). The stopper has a head 31 in the form of a solid cylinder, the side surface of which is advantageously grooved in order to facilitate its handling, and also has an adjoining hollow cylinder 32 and, for this purpose, equiaxed outer hollow cylinder 33 arranged below the first hollow cylinder. The two hollow cylinders 32 and 33 have zvrel in adjacent Mailtellinien disposed slots 34a and 34b, which van the free edge of the cylinder 33 from up in

P the length of the head 31 is sufficient. These slots limit one Tongue 35 "which carries a pin 36 and a hook 37" The pin 36 is in the part of the tongue corresponding to the hollow cylinder 33 provided and has a slightly inclined front surface. Of the The hook 35 has a surface 33 perpendicular to the common axis of the hollow cylinders 32 and 33 and one with respect to the surface 38 inclined surface 39. The plug is made of a material of some elasticity so that the tongue 35 is flexible and into the Dotted position in the interior of the stopper pressed can be.

In the end of the Tubts26 on which the stopper described above is attached, is a wreath 41 (Fig.5) of rectangular cross-section forms whose inner diameter is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the Hohlaylinder 33 and its thickness is less than the distance between the end of the pin 36 and the opposite surface 38 of the hook 37. The upper face

most of the collar 41 is located within the tube 26 in a depth / equal to the Lä.ige of the cylinder 32 plus the LHnge of the pin 36 so that pressed into the tube 26 at era Stopfau dex Kra ^s ^ s 41 between the pin 36 ' and the Hakön 37 engages, as in the left one

009835/119 6 BATH

Part of Fig. 5 shown in phantom.

The ring 41 continues upward in a stop 42, the The width is essentially the same as that of the pin 36 and the thickness of which is the same as that of the ring 41. In addition, the wreath is 41 cut at a certain distance from the stop 42 so that it is one of the inner wall of the tube 26 to the inner lower edge of the wreath reaching inclined plane 33 forms. The width of this incision 33 is slightly larger than the width of the pin 36. Finally, the inner surface of the tube 26 is above the rim 41 as well as the inner surface of the rim 41 with a certain number of rounded longitudinal projections 44 and 45 of small thickness Mistake.

To close the container, one only needs to bring the stopper 24 in front of the tube 26 so that their axes coincide, and to push the stopper into the tube. The inclined surface 39 of the hook 37 presses against the rim 41 _f and the pressing in of the plug causes the tongue 35 to bend back into the interior of the plug (FIG. 6), whereby the hook 37 can slide over the rim. When the stopper 24 is completely pushed in, the tongue 35 resumes its normal position, so that the ring 4-1 engages between the hook 37 and the pin 36, (FIG. 5), which ensures the closure of the container. This lock is a safety lock, since the hook 37, regardless of the angular position of the stopper with respect to the tube 26, always presses with its surface 38 against the underside of the ring 41, which is not interrupted at any point. Such a closure is very simple and can therefore be put on completely automatically and by the packaging machines. The plug 24 is also

"■ '■:. ■■■ 00983 5/1196

by any user, even presumably, he's very distracted or in a hurry, inserted and locked immediately.

To open the container, you must first turn the stopper 24 and tube 26 until the pin 36 against the side of the The stop 42 presses, and then by a new rotation of the stopper 24 with respect to the tube 26 the pin 36 over a precisely defined position Let the number of projections 44 run in order to bring it in front of the inclined surface 33. The plug 24 can then through axial Pressure to be pushed in a little. The tongue 35 is pushed back inward into the stopper and the pin 36 pushes against the inner surface of rim 41. Then turn each plug in the opposite direction as before, until the pin 36 has slid over a certain number of projections 44 and sich.dem stop 42 is located opposite. If you then pull on the plug, the pin 36 slides on the stop 42, which the tongue 35 still veiter pushes back into the interior of the plug 42, so that the hook 37 comes free from the rim 41 and also over the stop 42 slides. The stopper can be pulled out freely.

The opening of the container is thus by five Bevegungen that can be performed rapidly, Venn one knows the code, and in particular the number of projections through which the pin must slide in each direction. Reference marks can be provided on the tube, but the slight noise that occurs when the pin hits a projection is generally sufficient to control the movement. A child, on the other hand, would hardly ever think of pushing it down even if it was twisting the stopper when trying to pull it out. Even an adult who does not know the number of protrusions to be overcome could

-;: -, ... 009835/1196

Do not pull the stopper out of the tube. When pulling out of the plug is attempted, if the pin has not overcome the certain number of protrusions, the tongue 35 reverses back into their normal position and the pin 36 engages again above the wreath 41 a. So opening is impossible, and that entire maneuvers must be started from the beginning.

The number of projections 44 and 45 on the tube 26 and the rim 41, respectively is arbitrary, whereby the totality of the opening process is different Can be coded. In practice the number is the in each direction to be overcome projections preferably the same or different by one unit.

It should be noted that the front of the pin 36 beveled inwardly relative to the outer side surface of the hollow cylinder 32 so that a step 36a under the edge of the hollow cylinder 32 is formed, whereby it is prevented that the pin 36 hits the inner upper edge of the rim 41 and gets stuck. The same result can be achieved by chamfering the end of this edge of the crane 41 which is in the vicinity of the inclined plane 33 can be achieved.

According to another embodiment, the tubular end has 46 of a container (Fig.7) at its opening one to the outside directed flange 48 with a longitudinal slot 49 »over which a cap 50 can be pushed. Below this flange 48 is a sing 52 by a snap ring 53 axially immovably but freely rotatably held on the tube 46, which on the one hand has an annular collar 54 with an outer diameter equal to that of the closure cap and, on the other hand, a ring 56 of smaller outer diameter, under which the closure cap

009835/1196 «β« ** "* ·

engages, has a longitudinal slot 57 in this locking ring 56 intended. The closure cap in turn forms one through two vertical slots and one horizontal slot on its circumference Tongue 58 delimited by a slot and carrying a nose 59 extending inwards. This tongue 58 is sufficiently elastic to allow the To enable closure cap by simply pressing onto the pipe end 46 regardless of the position of the Hinges 52, vobei the nose 57 below the locking ring 56 in this and that Collar 54 limited groove engages.

In contrast, the closure cap can only be pulled off if the slots 49 and formed in the flange 48 and locking ring 56 are in a line and thus allow the nose 59 to pass freely. A rotation of the ring 52 brings the slot 57 into the extension of the slot 49 _f while a rotation of the closure cap 50 brings the nose 59 in front of these slots. Nwänden ausse-to the tube end 46 of the ring 52 and the lid 50 are thus mounted characters, numbers or letters, andthe container can only be opened "vena certain preselected characters, letters or numbers against each other.

If the code indicating these characters is known, opening is extremely quick and easy with two turns. In contrast, if you are unfamiliar with the code, opening it takes a lot of time and patient trial and error. It is therefore unlikely that a child, or even one, was unfamiliar with the code Person could manage the opening.

In FIG. 7, the closure cap clamps a plastic capsule 60 in which a water-binding tablet 62 is located "which two times" good durability of the one contained in the tube! Products contribute «

009835/1198

Of course, a corresponding capsule be provided in FIGS. 1 to 6 shown closures also in one or the other.

In addition, the tube 46 can simply be the end of a tube or tube vie in Fig. 1 or be a tubular mouthpiece with a container of any shape, a bottle or even a canister, which can be used for e.g. or veterinary products.

However, the invention is not limited to containers which have a ring-shaped mouthpiece or a tubular part. she can also be used with various other container shapes.

Figures 8-10 show, for example, one embodiment of one cuboid (prismatic) -shaped container, for example a box closed by a flat, covering lid. In this Figures are shown only one of the sides of the box as the other is quite similar.

At the bottom 4 of the box are not only the front walls 63 and rear walls 65 as well as the side walls 66 but also in the interior of the box to the side walls 66 parallel partition walls 68 attached. Each of these side walls 66 is divided into several tongues 67a, 67b, 67c, 67d, which go through over the entire height and through the whole Thickness of the side wall reaching slots 69 are separated. Since the material from which the box is made is elastic, has each tongue has a certain elasticity and can be bent back towards the inside of the box. On the one visible in the figure On the side wall 66, the tongues 67a and 67c are bent outwardly in a U-shape at their free end and thus delimit the tongue itself

(before sliding channel) and the bent edge 72 parallel to it a central channel ^ 70.

The tongues 67b and 6? D, however, have one at their free end Head start / 74. Pie. Voraprttnge 74 and the bent edges 72 are on the. a stop 65a formed by an extension of the rear wall 65 of the box opposite side beveled (Fig.10), while the other side has a straight, sharp edge.

The lid cooperating with this box has a flat Surface 76, an inner rib 80 running parallel to each of its side walls and an edge bent at right angles, the one Forms longitudinal slide 84. The bent portion carried by the edge portion 83 parallel to the surface 76 is with four cutouts 84.8 ^ 64C and 84d of a width accordingly the width of the lamellae 67, velche are separated from one another by the pegs 85.

It closes the cover by subjecting it defers in the direction of arrow F of FIG. 10, "wherein the bent-over edge portions of the tongues hen 72 67a and 67c in the slide 84 of the cover rail, whilst the pin 85 of the lid in which the Slide the end of the tongues 67a and 67c formed channel 70 · A simple slide of the lid is enough to close. The pins 85 meet the chamfered surfaces 74a of the nose 74 and optionally the chamfered parts 72a of the bent-over edges 72 and press these noses and edges out of their Veg. After the pegs slide past, the tongues 67a, 67b automatically return to their normal straight position and the lid is locked.

If you keep the lid in the opposite direction to arrow F. move viii, the tenons 85 strike against the flat surfaces

009835/1196

and straight edges 74b of the lugs 74 ah.

Among other things, to be able to slide the cover, the tongues 67b and 67d have to be pushed back towards the inside of the box, ura to clear the way for the pin 85 without taking the tongues 57a and 67c with it. If , while pushing back the tongues 67b and 67d, one simultaneously pushes back any of the tongues 67a or 67c, the edge 72b of the bent edge 72 of the tongue prevents the passage of the pin 85 and the lid is blocked to enable.

The figures show only one of the sides of the box and lid. The second side can be designed in exactly the same way be and have four tongues, of which only two may be pushed back to unlock, or another number and / or Own distribution of tongues. In particular, it can be advantageous for one of the sides of the box to have two tongues with lugs and the other side only has a tongue with a nose. This makes it easy to open the hand-held box by with the thumb on the only nasal tongue on one side © and with the index and middle fingers on the two nasal hollows of the other side presses.

Since with the lid open, all the tongues of the box come from the outside are seen the same, the system represents a coded lock, which can only be released by a person using the code knows.

The visible part of the tongues can be provided with various symbols, of which certain symbols identify the tongues, which have to be pushed back to open the box, whereby

009835/1196 ORIGINAL. JMSPECTEO

but only one person who knows the meaning of these symbols », can open the box.

As in the case of the tubular container above, the box in be divided into two chambers. The one with the one described System sealed, contains the dangerous products while the other is closed with a simple sliding cover Unpleasant tasting tablets, candies or the like. Contains.

_fc The box may also carry a visible MQrkierung, for example, a thin groove, which is similar to a lid and distracts the child's attention, and is used alone or in conjunction with the secondary chamber.

In another embodiment shown in FIG. 11, the lid of a box has the shape of a rectangular plate 86, which along its two long sides has longitudinal ribs 87 of slightly shorter length than the sides at their outer ends have a bevel 88. In the middle of the lid 86

the two ribs are connected by a transverse rib 90. Zip eek (Feather)

rich of this transverse rib, each of the longitudinal ribs 87 has a nose //

92, which engages in an incision ^ 94 in the side wall 96 of the box »

The box is closed by pressing the lid into it, which is facilitated by a beveled design of the nose 92 and the elasticity of the box walls. The opening can only take place if one simultaneously pulls the lid and pushes the chest in the direction of the arrow. This pressure causes a Heraias «» bending of the side walls 96 of the box, as shown in the figure with dashed and dotted lines, whereby the lugs 92 come out of the incisions 94 get free.

009835/1196

The distance between the surfaces to be pressed against one another can easily be greater than the width between the fingers of a child's hand. In addition, a circumferential groove 98 is provided preferably _β velcne the Aufmerkmsamkeit of a child on a blind cover or a genuine lid 100 moves, at the opening of which a secondary chamber zugönglichjist containing velchejiinschädliche but unpleasant products.

According to a modified embodiment (FIGS. 12 and 13), the container has the shape of a tube 102 which is closed at one of its ends by a bottom 104, but has a lateral opening 106, while the dangerous products inside the tube in a cylindrical manner Sleeve 108 are included, which is also provided with a lateral opening 110. Between the bottom 104 of the tube 102 and the bottom of the sleeve 108 containing the dangerous products, there is an elastic element, for example a spring 112 or an elastic plug or an elastic ball, which always pushes the sleeve 108 back, so that the openings 106 and 110 are apart.

The action of the spring 112 is through a series of with the Inner wall of the tube 102 fixedly connected projections 114 limited. These projections are in the shape of triangles, the tips of which point outwards towards the end of the pipe, with the exception of one projection,

straight parallel of the one tapering / wedge 116 with / side edges forms.

The tube 102 is closed by a stopper 120 which has a disc 121 which is cylindrical on one side Clamp 122 of a smaller outer diameter than the inner

009835/1196

diameter of the projections 114 and 116 and a height at most the same as the one of these projections and on the other side with Teeth 124 of much greater height than the height of the sleeve 122 is provided by triangular spaces are separated from one another, the tip of which, adjacent to the disk 121, forms an angle equal to that of the tip of the protrusions 114 forms.

However, one of these has spaces, namely the space between them 128, a straight line shape corresponding to wedge 116. One Cap 129 is pushed over these teeth.

The outer wall of the tube 102 also has merers in the area Projections 114 have a recess 130 (FIG. 14) in the center thereof a plate 132 is articulated at a pivot point 131. This At one of its ends, the plate has a firmly attached to it Spigot 134 "which passes through the wall of tube 102 and the triangular protrusion 114 slides through. Its other end becomes pushed back by a spring 136 arranged in the recess 130, so that the pin 134 is pressed into the interior of the tube, while the pin is pushed through one onto the free end external pressure exerted on the wafer is withdrawn.

When the container is closed, the stopper 120 goes into the open The end of the tube 102 is pressed in so that the clamp 122 is pushed into the space lying within the protrusions 114 and 116. The pin 134 engages in an annular groove surrounding the ferrule 138 so that the plug is locked and both of them Openings 106 and 110 are kept at a distance from one another.

009835/1196

In order to be able to remove the products contained in the can ΊΟ8, the spring 112 must be compressed 'i.e. one must against the Press the bottom of this sleeve. To do this, the plug 120 must be removed after it has been previously applied by pressure on the plate 132 has unlocked. Preferably several such plates are provided, only a few of which have a locking pin wear. Then the cap 129 is removed and the stopper 120 turned so that its teeth 124 in front of the projections 114 tren The gaps and the gap 128 in front of the wedge 116 lie. The cover 129 is placed on the disk 121, and a pressure on this cover compresses the spring 112 until the openings 110 and 106 are superimposed so that the products can pass through the sleeve 108 (Fig.12).

In contrast, it closes automatically by simply pulling it back of the plug 120, whereby the spring 112 again its effect can unfold. The locking is then easily restored »by pressing the ferrule 122 into the tube 102, wherein the pin or pins 134 automatically snap into place in the annular groove 138 again.

Otherwise, harmless (non-injurious) ones are unpleasant to be contacted tips 142 on the one hand on the outer surface of the bottom of the sleeve ^ 08 and on the other hand on both sides of the Washer 121 is provided.
