Blister pack

Abstract

A blister pack ( 1 ) contains a blister portion ( 5 ) and a base portion ( 6 ), between which a blister is inserted in a sandwich-like manner. The base portion ( 6 ) contains detachable blocking segments ( 7 ) which each cover a push-out region for articles ( 18 ). For childproofing purposes, the blister portion ( 5 ) contains safeguarding segments ( 8 ) which overlap the blocking segments ( 7 ) in each case and can be swung up out of the plane of the blister portion ( 5 ) by pressure being applied from the rear side. The safeguarding segments ( 8 ) here are configured such that, in the rest position, they prevent access to the blocking segments ( 7 ), and it is only after the safeguarding segments ( 8 ) have been at least partially swung up that they allow pressure to be applied to the blocking segments ( 7 ). In order to increase the childproofing further, the base portion ( 6 ) has push-out segments ( 9 ) which are located above the safeguarding segments ( 8 ) and can be pressed in from the rear side (R) in order to swing out the safeguarding segments ( 8 ).

1 . Blister pack ( 1 ) for a blister ( 2 ), having a blister portion ( 5 ), which forms a front side (F), and a base portion ( 6 ), which forms a rear side (R), between which the blister can be, or is, inserted in a sandwich-like manner, it being the case that the blister portion ( 5 ) has cutouts ( 10 ) for accommodating the cavities ( 3 ) of the blister ( 2 ), and that the base portion ( 6 ) contains detachable blocking segments ( 7 ) which each cover a push-out region for articles ( 18 ) in a cover sheet ( 11 ) of the blister in a rest position and, in order to produce a removal position, can be partially detached from the base portion in a first step by pressure being applied from the front side (F), as a result of which, in a second step, a partially detached blocking segment ( 7 ) can be gripped for removal purposes, characterized in that the blister portion ( 5 ) contains safeguarding segments ( 8 ) which overlap the blocking segments ( 7 ) in each case and can be at least partially detached from the plane of the blister portion ( 5 ) preferably by pressure being applied from the rear side, the safeguarding segments ( 8 ) being configured such that, in the rest position, they prevent access to the blocking segments ( 7 ), and it is only after the safeguarding segments ( 8 ) have been at least partially detached that they allow pressure to be applied for the first step for detaching the blocking segments ( 7 ) from the base portion ( 6 ). 
   
   
       2 . Blister pack according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the safeguarding segments ( 8 ) are formed in each case by continuous perforation lines ( 14 ,  15 ), or in that the safeguarding segments ( 8 ) are swing-action portions which can be swung up out of the plane of the blister portion ( 5 ). 
   
   
       3 . Blister pack according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the safeguarding segments are swing-action portions ( 8 ) which are formed by approximately U-shaped perforation lines ( 12 ). 
   
   
       4 . Blister pack according to  claim 3 , characterized in that a respective swing-action portion ( 8 ) can be swung up around a swing-action line ( 13 ) which, as seen in plan view, runs preferably approximately centrally through the blocking segment ( 7 ). 
   
   
       5 . Blister pack according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the base portion ( 6 ) also has push-out segments ( 9 ) which are located beneath the safeguarding segments ( 8 ) and can be pressed in for the partial detachment of the safeguarding segments ( 8 ), in particular for swinging the latter out from the rear side (R). 
   
   
       6 . Blister pack according to  claim 5 , characterized in that, as seen in plan view, a push-out segment ( 9 ) is enclosed by a safeguarding segment ( 8 ) in each case in order to be fully covered, the push-out segment ( 9 ) preferably abutting in planar fashion in an end region of the safeguarding segment ( 8 ). 
   
   
       7 . Blister pack according to  claim 5 , characterized in that, as seen in plan view, a safeguarding segment ( 8 ) covers in each case part of a blocking segment ( 7 ) and an entire push-out segment ( 9 ). 
   
   
       8 . Blister pack according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the blocking segments ( 7 ) and/or the push-out segments ( 9 ) are formed in each case by continuous perforation lines ( 14 ,  15 ). 
   
   
       9 . Blister pack according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the perforation lines ( 14 ,  15 ) for the blocking segments ( 7 ) and the push-out segments ( 9 ) are separated from one another. 
   
   
       10 . Blister pack according to  claim 1 , characterized in that it comprises a single blank made of cardboard or cardboard laminate. 
   
   
       11 . Blank for a blister pack according to  claim 1  characterized in that the blister portion ( 5 ) and the base portion ( 6 ) are separated from one another by a folding line ( 16 ).
