Abstract
A packaging including a grouping nest for receiving syringes, a packaging tub, and a sealing cover for sealing the packaging tub. The packaging includes a plate intended to be positioned close to the flanges of the syringes before sealing of the tub; this plate includes a plurality of first surfaces intended to be placed in contact with the flanges and a plurality of second surfaces located on the side of the cover plate opposite this plurality of first surfaces, the distance between the plurality of first surfaces and the plurality of second surfaces being chosen in such a way that, when the plurality of first surfaces lies against the flanges, the plurality of second surfaces is in contact or in close proximity to the sealing cover.
Claims12
A packaging for cylindrical containers, the cylindrical containers each having a flange, said packaging comprising a tub sealable by a sealing cover and containing a nest for supporting the containers;
- a plate having a first side and a second side, said plate placeable proximate the flanges of the containers before sealing the tub;
- said plate comprising a plurality of first surfaces defined on said first side and intended to be placed in contact with the flanges and a plurality of second surface defined on said second side, said plurality of first surfaces being spaced apart from said-plurality of second surfaces such that when is the containers are supported by the nest in the tub the tub is sealed by the sealing cover and said plate is located proximate to the flanges, the plurality of first surfaces contacts the flanges, and said plurality of second surfaces contact the sealing cover,
- wherein the total thickness of the plate corresponds to a distance separating an upper surface of the flanges and an inner surface of the sealing cover when the containers are placed in the nest and the nest is placed in the tub such that the plate prevents axial movement of the containers with respect to the nest.
