摘要： A system of the present invention includes a tandem package and an apparatus and method for making the same. The tandem package includes a strip of film material having a plurality of medicament containing compartments. To prevent ripping or exposure of the medicament in an adjacent compartment upon opening of an individual segment of the package, each compartment is separated by a dividing member. In addition, to facilitate opening of the each segment while providing increased resistance to opening by children, each segment includes a pinhole in at least one corner of the segment perpendicular to a fold line. Thus to open the segment to expose the medicament, the corner may be folded along the fold line and torn at the pinhole, with the dividing member limiting tearing of the film. The apparatus and method of the present invention include a number of sub-assemblies for sealing the film, forming the compartments, placing the dividing member between the compartments, placing the dose of medicament in each compartment and cutting the continuous web into strips having the desired number of segments therein.

摘要翻译： 本发明的系统包括串联封装及其制造方法。 串联包装包括具有多个药物容纳隔室的薄膜材料条。 为了防止在打开包装件的单独部分时相邻隔室中的药物的撕裂或暴露，每个隔室由分隔构件分开。 此外，为了便于每个片段的打开，同时提供增加的对儿童打开的阻力，每个片段在垂直于折叠线的片段的至少一个角落中包括针孔。 因此为了打开该区段以露出药物，角部可以沿折叠线折叠并在针孔处撕开，分隔构件限制膜的撕裂。 本发明的装置和方法包括许多用于密封薄膜的子组件，形成隔室，将分隔构件放置在隔室之间，将药物的剂量放置在每个隔室中，并将连续腹板切割成具有期望的条带 其中的段数。
