Definitions
- the invention firstly relates to a closure for a container, for example an ampoule, in which a medicament is preferably received, with a closure cap and a closure stopper received in the closure, detent formations being formed on the closure cap, for latching the closure to the ampoule , And a sliding part is provided, which is movable relative to the closure cap, for Verlement- tion of the sealing plug in the closed position.
- the closure caps of the closures are initially arranged on the container in a first position, in which drying of the medicament received in the container can be carried out by means of air passages to the interior of the container, for example in a freeze-drying chamber. After completion of the freeze-drying, the closure caps are then moved to a second position, in which they are latched at a mouth edge of the container and in which the sealing plug received in the closure cap engages sealingly in a container neck and / or with a sealing flange on a front-side mouth surface the container is sealingly seated.
- the movement in the closure position is usually by a on a variety of made with these closures provided containers acting plate part.
- the plate member acts on a sliding part, which is both - usually: first - is moved relative to the closure cap, and then moved together with the cap and the sealing plug received in the closure cap in the latching closure position.
- the lowest possible application of force is desired.
- a large number of such containers can be closed simultaneously for a given maximum force that can be exerted on the plate member.
- a certain holding security of the closures is required with respect to the containers to avoid that the closures during freeze-drying or on the way into a freeze-drying chamber or during transport and loading within the freeze-drying chamber of the containers fall off.
- the invention is concerned with the task, a closure for a container, in particular an ampoule in which a medicament is received to form low in terms of carrying out a freeze-drying process. Furthermore, the invention is also concerned with the task of specifying an advantageous method for carrying out a freeze-drying method for containers, in particular ampoules, with a closure.
- a possible solution to the problem is given in terms of the closure in that the closure plug for displacement in the closed position by means of the sliding part is displaceable relative to the cap. Characterized in that the closure plug is not moved with the cap, but relative to the cap in the closed position, it is possible to attach the cap there immediately at a first seating of the closure on the container there, in particular firmly to lock.
- the closure plug is relatively movably received for the closure cap.
- the inclusion of the sealing plug can be given in the cap itself.
- the receptacle of the sealing plug can initially also be provided only by means of the sliding part held in the closure cap.
- the invention also relates to a method for carrying out a freeze-drying process for a medium accommodated in a container, in particular a medicament, wherein the container is closed by means of a sealing plug sealing in the region of a container mouth, wherein the closure stopper first in a before Trock - Cap applied to the container cap is kept in a distance position to the area and is offset after completion of the drying in a sealing position.
- a further possible solution to the problem in particular with regard to the method aspect, therefore provides that after completion of the drying, the stopper held on a sliding part guided displaceably on the closure cap is displaced into the closure position by means of a force acting on the sliding part, with the cap being fixed relative to the container. After completion of the freeze-drying process, only the sliding part is moved relative to the closure cap. It is not necessary to move the cap still relative to the container after completion of the freeze-drying process. The stopper can be moved by movement of the sliding part in the closed position alone.
- the invention is further described with respect to the container with respect to an ampoule (vial). Further preferably, it is a container, for example an ampoule, made of glass. It can also be a different container. Preferably, one which is used in the pharmaceutical field.
- the closure cap has an outer cap wall.
- This cap wall can also be arranged outside with respect to an end-side, ie generally horizontally extending, end surface of a mouth opening of the ampoule in association with the ampoule.
- the mouth edge of the ampoule can be designed, for example, in a bead shape in cross-section.
- the cap wall can therefore run outside with respect to the bead.
- the ampoule can continue to rejuvenate further below the bead into an ampoule neck and then widen again.
- the generally rotationally symmetrical and in its region below the neck in any case preferably cylindrical cylindrical shaped ampule can with the outer surface their said cylinder region may be provided flush or nearly in alignment with an outer surface of the cap wall.
- the sliding part is preferably guided on the inside of the cap wall.

- the closure cap and / or the sliding part are preferably plastic parts produced by plastic injection molding. It is hard plastic.
- the closure plug is preferably a rubber part or consists of a thermoplastic elastomer or of another rubber-like soft material, in particular soft plastic.
- the closure cap furthermore preferably has a guide wall, which is separate from the cap wall, for the closure stopper.
- the guide wall can thus be specifically designed to give up the guidance.
- the interaction region with the sealing plug can be selected in its surface extent such that, initially, in a first position of the sealing plug relative to the mouth of the ampoule,
- a sufficient adhesion results, which precludes an unintentional displacement of the sealing plug, but on the other hand requires not moreover a not too great force load for displacement of the sealing plug in the closed position.
- the guide wall is designed as a cap neck protruding upward beyond the cap wall.
- the cap neck preferably has a significantly smaller diameter than the cap wall.
- Both the cap wall and the cap neck are more preferably cap-shaped closure cap parts. They are preferably rotationally symmetrical, but may also be designed on the outside, for example with regard to the cap wall, in relation to a corrugation or the like, alternately over the circumference.
- the outer wall and / or the cap neck can be configured differently with regard to passage openings formed therein for air guidance and / or visual verifiability over the circumference.
- interruptions in the circumferential area may also be provided. For example, for adaptation to the required size of the wall region standing in frictional engagement with the sealing plug.
- one or more vertically oriented passage openings may be formed between the guide wall and the cap wall. These passage openings allow the penetration of a part or region of the closure, in particular the sliding part, which acts on the closure stopper. They also initially allow a visual inspection with regard to the sealing plug received in the closure cap.
- the sliding part which is suitably arranged at least partially above a passage opening and is slide-connected to the closure cap, has a sliding extension projecting into the passage opening.
- the sliding extension may initially, in a first position, still be provided above the passage opening or slightly entered into the passage opening. In the closed state after completion of the freeze-drying, the sliding extension then passes through the passage opening.
- the closure stopper provided in the closure preferably has a flange, with which it rests in the closed state on an end face of the ampoule opening. Furthermore, it preferably has a central region extending upwards from the flange, more preferably with a smaller diameter than the flange.
- the sealing plug preferably has a plug-in portion extending downwardly from the flange. The insertion portion has a smaller, adapted to the neck opening of the ampoule diameter than the flange. The insertion section engages in the closure state in the mouth region of the ampoule into the interior of the ampoule and thus seals the ampoule by abutment against an inner surface of the neck region.
- the central region of the sealing plug preferably interacts with the said guide wall of the closure cap, that is to say in particular with the closure cap neck. He is included in it. Further, it is preferably cylindrical. A cylinder outer surface cooperates with an inner surface of the guide wall for holding and guiding together.

On a top of the flange It is pushed through the sliding part, whereby the sealing plug can then be displaced, relative to the closure cap, into the closed position with respect to the ampoule. In addition, it is also preferred that the sliding part engages over an upper side of the closure cap.
- a relative to the passage opening s radially outer region of the closure cap.
- closure cap or the sliding part can be covered by a cover part after the closure stopper has been moved into the closed position.
- the cover part may be provided, for example, latchable on the closure cap. But it can also be welded to the cap about.
- the cover part is formed captive in one piece with the closure cap or the sliding part. Preference is given to a one-piece molded part formation with the sliding part. In this case, a thinned joint area can be formed in the transition between the sliding part and the cover part.
- closure pins which protrude upwardly free-standing, can be provided on the closure cap. These can be engaging openings of the cover part in the closed state. In particular, they can also be welded to the said openings in the engaged state.
