Description

The invention relates to a cap with electrical functionalities, for example, an RFID function or a sensor function, for placement on a medical container. The invention further relates to a closure arrangement for a medical container with a cap possessing electrical functionality. In addition, the invention relates to a medical container, for example, a medical syringe, with a cap possessing electrical functionality or with a closure arrangement comprising such a cap.

Medical containers, such as vials, ampoules, or medical syringes, generally have a small surface area. It is therefore difficult to equip such a medical container with additional electrical functionalities, such as sensors or a data transmission device like an RFID chip.

However, to assess the condition of a medical substance, especially a liquid, within a medical container, sensors are required to detect external influences on the substance. These sensors can detect environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, shock, or even light exposure to the medical liquid inside the container, allowing conclusions to be drawn about its condition.

The following is a proposed solution that makes it possible to equip a medical vessel with electrical functionality despite its small size, in order to monitor and assess, for example, the state of the formulation of a liquid inside the vessel with regard to external influences, such as environmental factors.

According to this approach, it is proposed to equip a cap for placement on a medical vessel with electrical functionality. The cap with electrical functionality has the features specified in claim 1.

The cap comprises an electrical functional unit for providing electrical functionality, a power supply unit for providing electrical energy to operate the electrical functional unit, and a communication unit for providing wireless communication. The electrical functional unit is designed to acquire data. The communication unit is designed for remote data transmission via wireless communication.

The cap can, for example, be designed as a primary closure to seal the inlet or outlet of a medical vessel, such as a medical syringe. As a primary closure, the cap seals the inlet/outlet of the medical vessel, protecting the medical fluid inside from contact with the environment and thus from potential contamination. As a primary closure, the cap can be in direct contact with the medical fluid inside the vessel via the inlet/outlet.

According to another embodiment, the cap can be designed as a secondary closure or as an adapter/adapter cap. A primary closure of a medical container, for example, a medical syringe, which serves to seal an inlet/outlet opening of the medical container and is usually in contact with the medical substance inside the container on its underside, is unsuitable for label adhesion in most cases. On the one hand, the primary closure offers too few flat surfaces for label application. On the other hand, the primary closure is often provided with a ribbed structure, which, while intended to facilitate opening the primary closure, makes it more difficult for a label to adhere securely to it. Furthermore, the primary closure is usually not circumferentially identical to the wall of the functional part of the medical container, for example, a syringe barrel containing the medical fluid.

A medical vessel with only a primary closure is therefore difficult to label across its entire surface, extending beyond the closure. The secondary closure, or adapter, is designed to create a uniform circumference between the vessel body and the primary closure, thus increasing the adhesive surface for labeling.

While the common adapter caps have the sole purpose of shaping areas of a primary container, such as the primary closure and/or the Luer adapter of a medical syringe, so that these areas are the same circumference as the body of the vessel/container or the fuel Since the central body is optimized for the adhesion of a label, the inventive approach proposes using the cap designed as a secondary closure or adapter to further functionalize the medical vessel or primary container.

Possible additional functions of the cap according to the invention, for placement on a medical vessel, which is designed, for example, as a primary closure or as a secondary closure/adapter cap, include, for example, monitoring the temperature or humidity of the environment surrounding the medical vessel, monitoring exposure to light or shock to the medical vessel, and monitoring the formulation of a substance, for example, a liquid, inside the medical vessel. The electrical functional unit can include a sensor for detecting corresponding environmental influences and for providing data representing these environmental influences. With the aid of the sensor technology integrated into the cap, environmental influences on the cap or the medical container and the substance inside the container can thus be detected.

The cap's electrical functional unit may, for example, include a microprocessor for data processing and/or time recording. The microprocessor integrated into the cap can, for instance, process data provided by the functional unit's sensor. If the microprocessor enables time recording, it can, for example, register the time at which the cap was first removed from the vessel body of the medical device.

According to another possible embodiment of the cap with electrical functionality, the electrical functional device can include a data storage device for storing the data, in particular the data provided by the sensor of the functional device. The data output by the sensor can thus be stored in the data storage device of the electrical functional device and subsequently read out or processed.

The communication device for providing wireless communication can, according to one possible embodiment of the cap with electrical functionality, be designed as a passive RFID inlay or passive RFID chip, or as an active RFID inlay or active RFID chip. The communication device can, for example, provide data transmission via Bluetooth, WiFi, and/or other active/semi-active electromagnetic data transmission methods.

There are various ways to integrate the electrical functionality into the cap. For example, the electrical functional unit, the power supply unit, and the communication unit can be embedded in the cap body or cast into the cap material.

According to another possible embodiment of the cap with electrical functionality, the electrical components, in particular the electrical functional device, the power supply device and the communication device, can be arranged on a surface of the body of the cap.

A closure arrangement for a medical vessel, in particular a medical syringe, is specified in claim 6.

The closure arrangement comprises a cap with electrical functionality for placement on the medical vessel according to one of the embodiments described above.

The closure assembly also includes a label for application to the medical device. One section of the label is affixed to an outer surface of the cap. For example, the label may be located on a side surface of the cap and incorporate electrical functionality. By affixing another section of the label to the body of the medical device, such as the body of a primary container or a syringe barrel, the cap can be securely fixed to the device. Furthermore, the label may incorporate additional features, such as a tamper-evident seal via perforation or even electrical functionality.

According to one embodiment, the label has an electrical conductor track that is connected to one of the electrical components of the cap, in particular to the electrical functional device and/or the power supply device and/or the communication device.

According to one possible embodiment of the closure arrangement, the label can have a detection device for detecting damage to the label. For this purpose, the label can, for example, have a perforation extending across the label's conductive track in the label material. When the cap is opened, the label is cut in the area of the perforation, thus simultaneously damaging the conductor track.

The microprocessor integrated into the cap can be designed to detect the time of label damage. This microprocessor can thus determine the time of damage to the conductive trace or the time of damage to the label itself. This also allows the time of initial opening of the medical container to be recorded.

According to one embodiment of the closure arrangement, in which the label has electrical functions, the label can include a sensor device. Furthermore, the label can have structures to support the function of a sensor within the cap's electrical function device.

According to another possible embodiment of the closure arrangement, the label can include an optical display device. The optical display device can, for example, be a display showing the data stored in the cap's data storage device or the environmental parameters detected by the sensor of the electrical function device. The label can, in particular, be a digital label. Data can be transmitted externally to the cap's electrical function device via data transmission. This data, for example, a new expiration date, can be displayed on the label's optical display device.

According to another possible embodiment of the closure arrangement, the label can include an energy harvesting device for generating energy for the cap's power supply unit. The energy harvesting device can be configured, in particular, to generate energy from environmental sources. This allows energy from the environment of the closure arrangement to be used to charge and/or maintain the voltage of the cap's power supply unit.

According to another possible embodiment of the closure device, the label can include an antenna connected to the cap's electrical communication device for remote data transmission. When the label is affixed to the body of a medical vessel, the antenna can extend around the entire circumference of the vessel and thus radiate in all directions.

According to another possible embodiment of the closure arrangement, the cap can include a first contacting device. The label can have a second contacting device. The first contacting device on the cap and the second contacting device on the label serve to establish an electrical connection between the label and the cap. To facilitate contact, the first contacting device of the cap can be arranged circumferentially around the body of the cap. The second contacting device of the label, on the other hand, only needs to be provided at a specific location on the underside of the label in order to reliably establish electrical contact with the first contacting device of the cap when the label is affixed to the cap.

A first embodiment of a medical vessel which, in addition to the function of receiving a liquid, also has an electrical functionality, is specified in claim 14.

The medical vessel includes a cap with electrical functionality, designed according to one of the above-described configurations, for placement on the body of the medical vessel. The body, or functional part, of the medical vessel has an opening. The cap with electrical functionality can be configured as a primary closure for placement on the opening of the functional part to seal the opening of the medical vessel, or as an adapter for placement on the primary closure of the medical vessel.

Another embodiment of a medical vessel which, in addition to the function of receiving a medical substance, also provides an electrical functionality, is specified in claim 15.

The medical vessel comprises a closure assembly according to one of the embodiments described above for placement on the body of the medical vessel. The body, or usable part, of the medical vessel has an opening. The cap of the closure assembly is designed as a primary closure for placement on the opening and sealing the medical vessel, or as an adapter for placement on the primary closure of the body of the medical vessel. The label is affixed to the body of the medical vessel, especially below the primary occlusion.

Medicines should generally only be used until the expiration date specified by the manufacturer. For liquid medicines stored in a medical container, the manufacturer's stated shelf life is often shortened as soon as the container is opened. Furthermore, environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, or exposure to light often affect the formulation of a medical liquid.

It is therefore advantageous to be able to detect when a medical container is first opened or to record environmental influences on medical fluids within it. To determine the time of initial opening of a medical container or to record environmental parameters, the medical container must be equipped with electronic functionality.

In the pharmaceutical field, medical containers, such as vials, ampoules or syringes, often have relatively small functional bodies, making it difficult to apply electronic devices, such as electronic chips or labels with electrical functions, to the functional bodies of medical containers.

To solve this problem technically, it is proposed to equip a cap or closure device for attaching to a medical vessel with electrical functionality. The cap, which is usually used solely to close a medical vessel or container, is thus used to further functionalize the medical vessel or container, and in particular to equip it with electrical functions.

1 shows an embodiment of a cap 100 with electrical functionality for placement on a medical vessel 1, which is in 1 The cap 100 is designed, for example, as a medical syringe. It includes an electrical functional unit 110 for providing electrical functionality. Furthermore, the cap 100 has a power supply unit 120 for providing electrical energy to operate the electrical functional unit 110, and a communication unit 130 for providing wireless communication.

The electrical functional unit 110 is designed for data acquisition. The electrical functional unit 110 can, for example, be used for... The electrical functional device 110 is configured to determine environmental data representing the temperature or humidity prevailing in the vicinity of the cap 100. According to a further embodiment, the electrical functional device 110 can, for example, be configured to detect light incident on the cap and thus on a medical fluid inside the vessel 1. According to another possible embodiment, the electronic functional device 110 can be configured to provide data representing a shock effect on the cap 100, the medical vessel 1, or the medical fluid inside the vessel.

To detect environmental influences, the electrical functional device 110 can have a suitably designed sensor 111 that provides output data representing the determined environmental parameters. Referring to the examples mentioned above, the sensor 111 can, for example, be a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a light sensor, or a sensor that detects a shock effect on the cap 100 or the medical vessel 1.

It is understood that the above-mentioned electrical functionalities of the electrical functional device 110 or the sensor 111, i.e. the detection of temperature, humidity, shock or light incidence, are only examples and the design of the electrical functional device 110 is not limited to these functionalities.

To process the data provided by the sensor 111, the electrical functional unit 110 can include a microprocessor unit 112. The microprocessor unit 112 can also be configured, for example, for time recording. With such a microprocessor unit, it is possible, for instance, to record the time of initial opening of the medical container by lifting the cap, in order to determine the premature expiration of a medical substance.

The electrical functional device 110 can further comprise a data storage device 113 for storing the data acquired by the functional device 110. Using the data storage device 113, it is thus possible to store the data provided by the sensor 111 or the data processed or prepared by the microprocessor device 112. In addition to the data, the time of data acquisition can also be stored.

According to one possible embodiment, the communication device 130 can be configured as a passive or active RFID circuit for remote transmission of the data provided by the electrical functional device 110. According to other possible embodiments, the communication device 130 can be configured for data transmission using Bluetooth or WiFi technology. In principle, the communication device 130 can also be configured for remote data transmission using other active or semi-active electromagnetic data transmission technologies.

Medical containers for holding medical fluids, such as medical syringes, are considered hazardous waste that must be disposed of and thermally treated after the medical fluid has been removed, for example, after an injection. Recycling is virtually impossible. Since the electrical components, in particular the electrical functional unit 110, the power supply unit 120, and the communication unit 130, are part of the cap 100 and are, for example—as will be explained in detail below—integrated into the material of the cap 110 or attached to a body of the cap 110, the proposed approach allows at least recycling or reuse of the cap 100 and thus of the cap's electrical components, even if a usable body 2 of the medical container must be disposed of and is not reusable. This is particularly important if one wants to minimize the amount of waste containing electronic components, such as batteries/energy storage devices.

The 2 to 8B Figure 1 shows embodiments of a closure assembly 10 with electrical functionality for placement on a medical vessel 1. The closure assembly 10 comprises the cap 100 with electrical functionality according to one of the above in connection with 1 described embodiments. In addition, the closure arrangement 10 has a label 200 for affixing to the working body 2 of the medical container 1. As described in particular in 2 As shown, the label 200 is arranged with a section 201 on an outer surface of the cap 100 with electrical functionality. A section 202 of the label is arranged on the body 2 of the medical container 1. The label thus enables additional fixation of the cap 100 to the medical container 1.

According to the in 2 In the illustrated embodiment, a section 203 of the label 200, which is arranged between section 201 and section 202, can have a perforation 210. When the closure assembly 100 is opened, for example when the cap 100 and a primary closure 4 of the medical vessel placed on an outlet opening 3 are turned, the material of the label 200 tears in the area of the perforation 210. During the 2 In the illustrated embodiment of the closure arrangement, the label 200 enables the indication of a first opening of the medical container 1.

The 3 to 8B Figure 1 shows embodiments of the closure arrangement 10 in which the label 200 has an electrical conductor 220. The electrical conductor can be connected to the electrical functional unit 110 and/or the power supply unit 120 and/or the communication unit 130 of the cap 100.

3 Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the closure assembly 10, in which the label 200 has a detection device 230 for detecting damage to the label. The detection device 230 can be configured as an intersection of the electrical conductor track 220 with the perforation 210. When the closure assembly 10 is opened by turning the cap 100, the label 200 tears at the perforation 210, thereby severing the conductor track 220.

The electrical functional unit 110 of the cap 100, in particular the microprocessor unit 112, can be configured to detect the time of damage to the label 200 and, in particular, the severing of the electrical conductor 220. This allows the time of label damage, and thus the time of initial opening of the medical container 1, to be determined. The determined time of initial opening can be stored in the data storage unit 113. The time of a seal breakage can be actively or passively transmitted to an external device, such as a server, via electromagnetic data transmission using the communication unit 130.

4 Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the closure arrangement 10, in which the label 200 can have a sensor device 240. The label 200 can be the sole carrier of the sensor or contain further structures 250, in particular electrical structures, to support the function of the sensor 113 of the electrical functional device 110 of the cap 100. The electrical conductor 220 serves for the electrical coupling of the electrical functional device 110 of the cap 100 with the sensor device 240 or the structures 250 for supporting the sensor, for example, the sensor 113, of the electrical functional device 110 of the cap 100.

5 Figure 1 shows a further embodiment of the closure arrangement 10, in which the label 200 includes an optical display device 260. In the illustrated embodiment, the label 200 can, for example, be configured as a digital label with the optical display device 260. The optical display device 260 can, for example, be configured as a display on which data stored in the data storage device 113 of the electrical functional device 110 can be visualized. Data, such as a new expiration date, can be transmitted externally via the communication device 130 to the electrical functional device 110 of the cap 100 and displayed on the optical display device 260 of the label. The optical display device can be arranged in a carrier material of the label or on an outer layer of the label.

6 Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the closure arrangement 10, in which the label 200 comprises an energy harvesting device 270 for obtaining energy for the power supply device 120 of the cap 100 from environmental influences. According to one possible embodiment, the energy harvesting device 270 can be configured such that energy is obtained from light incident on a photosensitive surface, which is then used by the power supply device 120 to operate the electrical functional device 110 or the communication device 130 of the cap 100.

7 Figure 1 shows a further embodiment of the closure arrangement 10 in which the label 200 includes an antenna 280. The antenna 280 can be connected to the communication device 130 of the cap 100 for remote data transmission via the electrical conductor 220. The antenna 280 on the label 200 thus serves to support the communication device 130 in the electromagnetic data transmission of the data stored in the data storage device 113.

In the 8A and 8B Exemplary embodiments of electrical contact between at least one of the electrical components 110, 120, and 130 of the cap 100 and the electrical components, for example, the electrical conductor 210, of the label 200 are shown. The cap 100 with electrical functionality has a contacting device 140 for this purpose. The label 200 comprises a contacting device 290. The contacting devices 140 and 290 are configured to establish an electrical connection between the label 200 and the cap 100.

8B Figure 1 shows the contacting device 140 and the contacting device 290 in more detail. The contacting device 140 of the cap 100 has a contact terminal 141, which is electrically connected to a contact terminal 291 of the contacting device 290 of the label 200. The contact terminals 141 and 291 can, for example, serve as positive contacts. Furthermore, the contacting device 140 of the cap 100 includes a contact terminal 142, which can be used, for example, as a negative contact terminal, and is electrically connected to a contact terminal 292 of the contacting device 290 of the label 200, which also serves as a negative contact.

Figure 8B further shows an embodiment of the label 200 with a carrier layer 204 and an inlay layer 205, which contains the electrical components of the label, for example the sensor device 240, the optical display device 260 or the antenna 280. The conductor track 220 as well as the contact connections 291 and 292 are located in the inlay layer 205.

According to an advantageous embodiment, the 8A and 8B The illustrated contact device 140 is arranged circumferentially around a body 101 of the cap 100. For example, the contact terminals 141 and 142 can be designed as electrically insulated and spatially separated strip conductors that circumferentially surround the body 101 of the cap 100. This allows the label to be arranged on an outer surface of the cap 100 without requiring precise alignment of the label 200 with the cap 100 to establish the electrical connection between the contact device 140 and the contact device 290.

The 9A to 9C show different possibilities for integrating electrical functionality into the cap 100. 9A Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the cap 100 in which the electrical functional device 110, the power supply device 120, and the communication device 130 are embedded or cast into the body 101 of the cap 100. 9B and 9C Figures show embodiments of the cap 100 in which the electrical functional device 110, the power supply device 120 and the communication device 130 are arranged on an outer surface of the body 101 of the cap 100.

The electrical components 110, 120 and 130 can, for example, be arranged on the top side of the body 101 of the cap 100 or on the side of the body 101 of the cap 100, as shown in 9B as shown. Furthermore, the electrical components 110, 120 and 130 of the cap 100 can be arranged on an underside inside the cap 100, as shown in 9C is shown. In the 9C In the embodiment shown in the right-hand image, the cap has 100 openings 150 to allow gas exchange after the cap is applied to the medical vessel, for example during sterilization with ethylene oxide.

At the in 1 to 8B The medical vessel 1 shown is a medical syringe whose working body has a small upper or circumferential surface and on which the use of the cap with electrical functionality or the closure arrangement with such a cap is particularly advantageous.

In principle, the cap 100 with electrical functionality or the closure assembly 10 can be used on any medical container, for example, on small vials or ampoules. The contents of the medical container do not have to be exclusively a medical liquid. The contents of the medical container can be any medical substance in solid, liquid, or gaseous form.

In the embodiments shown in the figures, the 1 Cap 100 shown with electrical functionality or the cap 100 with electrical functionality of the closure arrangement 10 of the 2 to 8B The device is designed as a secondary closure or adapter cap for the medical vessel 1, in particular a medical syringe. The body 2 of the medical vessel 1 has an inlet/outlet opening 3 on which a primary closure 4 is arranged. The primary closure 4 serves to seal the interior of the body 2.

In the in the 2 to 8B In the illustrated embodiments, the cap 100 with electrical functionality is arranged as a secondary closure on the primary closure 4. As a secondary closure or adapter cap, the cap 100 is not in direct contact with the medical substance present inside the user body 2. The cap 100 serves as a secondary closure or adapter cap to create circumferential conformity with the user body 2 and to provide a flat adhesive surface, so that the medical container 1 can be labeled beyond the user body 2 up to its upper closure. Thus, in addition to its electrical functions, the cap 100, as a secondary closure or adapter cap, provides an additional labeling surface for applying the label 200.

According to another possible embodiment, the cap 100 with electrical functionality can be configured as a primary closure of a medical vessel. As a primary closure, the cap 100 hermetically seals the inlet/outlet opening 3 and is in direct contact, at least on its underside, with the medical substance inside the user body 2.

The 3 to 7 Figure 1 illustrates one possible method for manufacturing the closure assembly 10 when the cap 100 serves as a secondary closure. First, the cap 100 with electrical functionality is placed onto the primary closure 4. Then, the label 200 is applied with its lower section 202 to the body 2 of the medical container and with its upper section 201 to the body 101 of the cap 100. In the embodiment of the cap 100 as a primary closure, the cap 100 is first placed directly onto the inlet/outlet opening 3 of the medical container. Labeling then takes place by applying section 202 of the label to the functional body of the medical container and section 201 of the label to the body 101 of the cap 100.
