Abstract
The invention relates to a portable clean room for filling at least one medicine container, located in the clean room with at least one active substance, wherein: the clean room is enclosed in an airtight manner by an at least partially flexible shell, the shell has at least one active substance connection region which can be opened, and a manipulation device and at least one medicine container are located in the clean room. According to the invention, the shell has at least one actuation connection region, wherein the manipulation device has at least one filling device which can be coupled to the active substance connection region for introducing at least one active substance into the at least one medicine container arranged in the clean room, and the manipulation device can be actuated by means of an actuation device via the actuation connection region of the shell, and is designed to displace the filling device—relative to the at least one medicine container—and/or to actuate the filling device.
Core Innovation
The invention relates to a transportable clean room for filling at least one medicine container located in the clean room with at least one active substance, wherein the clean room comprises a shell that airtightly encloses at least a portion of the clean room. The shell is at least partially flexible and has at least one active substance connection region that is openable, together with at least one actuation connection region.
A manipulation device includes at least one filling device coupleable to the at least one active substance connection region for introducing the at least one active substance into the at least one medicine container arranged in the clean room. An actuation device actuates the manipulation device via the at least one actuation connection region of the shell, the actuation device being operable to displace the at least one filling device relative to the at least one medicine container and/or actuate the at least one filling device.
The clean room is transportable and has the shell configured such that it has no openings for allowing the at least one medicine container to be introduced into the clean room. The filling device comprises an actuatable filling device operable to control a flow of the at least one active substance, and the shell uses openable connection regions and actuation connection regions to couple the filling and actuation functionality while preventing introduction of additional containers through the shell.
Claims Coverage
The provided independent claims center on a transportable, airtightly enclosing, at least partially flexible shell with openable active-substance connection regions and actuation connection regions, coupled to a manipulation device and an actuation device for displacing and/or actuating an actuatable filling device. The claims also state that the shell has no openings for allowing the medicine container to be introduced into the clean room.
Transportable airtight flexible shell with openable active-substance and actuation connection regions
A clean room for filling at least one medicine container with at least one active substance, comprising a shell for airtightly enclosing at least a portion of the clean room, the shell being at least partially flexible and having at least one active substance connection region which is openable and at least one actuation connection region.
Manipulation device coupled filling device for introducing active substance into medicine containers
A manipulation device having at least one filling device coupleable to the at least one active substance connection region for introducing the at least one active substance into the at least one medicine container arranged in the clean room.
Actuation device actuating manipulation device via shell actuation connection region to displace and/or actuate filling device
An actuation device for actuating the manipulation device via the at least one actuation connection region of the shell, the actuation device operable to displace the at least one filling device relative to the at least one medicine container, actuate the at least one filling device, or both.
No openings for introducing medicine containers into the clean room
The shell has no openings for allowing the at least one medicine container to be introduced into the clean room.
Actuatable filling device controlling flow of active substance
The at least one filling device comprises an actuatable filling device operable to control a flow of the at least one active substance.
Active-substance connection region spaced from actuation connection region with hose coupling
The at least one active substance connection region of the shell is spaced from the at least one actuation connection region, and the at least one filling device is connected to the at least one active substance connection region by a hose.
Closing device with provision and closing capability without openings
A manipulation device having at least one closing device for closing the at least one medicine container with at least one closure arranged in the clean room, together with a provision device arranged in the clean room for providing the at least one medicine container for filling and/or closing and for providing the at least one closure, and a drive device connectable with the provision device, wherein the shell has no openings for allowing the at least one medicine container to be introduced into the clean room.
The claim coverage focuses on a transportable, airtight, at least partially flexible shell with openable connection regions, a manipulation device, and an actuation device cooperating to fill medicine containers and, in some claims, to close them. Additional limitations include the absence of openings for introducing the medicine container, spacing between connection regions, hose connection, and provision and closing mechanisms.
