Abstract

The invention concerns the tamper-evident sealing ( 10 ) for seals ( 12, 14 ) of at least two nozzle-shaped ports ( 16, 18 ) of a container ( 20 ) such as infusion solution pouches. In order to achieve a secure sealing, while being easy to apply and with minor material use, it is intended that the tamper-evident sealing ( 10 ) is implemented as a ribbon-shaped shrink wrap that joins the ends ( 28, 30 ) of the ports ( 16, 18 ) and encompasses the seals ( 12, 14 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . Tamper-evident sealing ( 10 ) for seals ( 12 ,  14 ) of at least two nozzle-shaped ports ( 16 ,  18 ) of a container ( 20 ) such as an infusion solution pouch, characterized in that the tamper-evident sealing ( 10 ) is implemented as a ribbon-shaped shrink wrap that joins the ends ( 28 ,  30 ) of the ports ( 16 ,  18 ) and encompasses the seals ( 12 ,  14 ). 
   
   
       2 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the shrink wrap ( 10 ) is implemented as a shrink down hose section. 
   
   
       3 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 2 , characterized in that the shrink down hose section ( 10 ) features a break-off point such as perforation in the longitudinal direction. 
   
   
       4 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 2 , characterized in that the shrink down hose section ( 10 ) features an optical marking in the longitudinal direction. 
   
   
       5 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 2 , characterized in that the shrink down hose section ( 10 ) is transparent. 
   
   
       6 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the nozzle-shaped ports ( 16 ,  18 ) feature equal lengths. 
   
   
       7 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the nozzle-shaped ports ( 16 ,  18 ) are implemented as flexible tube endings. 
   
   
       8 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the seals ( 12 ,  14 ) interlock with one another in the sealed state. 
   
   
       9 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the seals ( 12 ,  14 ) feature longitudinal grooves ( 34 ,  36 ). 
   
   
       10 . Tamper-evident sealing according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the seals ( 12 ,  14 ) are implemented as Luer-Lock seals.
