Abstract

A plug body for chemical container capable of preventing the contact thereof with chemical and preventing ruptured film from falling into the chemical, comprising a valve ( 1 ) having an insert hole ( 3 ) formed at the center thereof, a cover ( 2 ) for holding the valve ( 1 ) by covering at least the upper peripheral edge of the valve ( 1 ), and a locking means for locking an insert body to the cover ( 2 ) by using the edge part of the cover ( 2 ) having a fitting hole formed therein when the insert body is inserted into the insert hole ( 3 ), wherein the rear surface peripheral part of the valve ( 1 ) is held by a pedestal part ( 5 ), and a film ( 4 ) covering the rear surface of the valve is disposed on the upper surface of the pedestal part ( 5 ).

Claims (14)

1. A plug body for a medical fluid container, comprising:

a disk-shaped valve provided with an insertion hole in its central portion; and

a cover that fixedly supports the valve, covering at least the valve's upper periphery;

wherein a lower periphery of the valve's rear surface is supported by a pedestal portion, a film covering the rear surface of the valve is arranged on an upper surface of the pedestal portion, and the film can be pressed through by an insertion member with an obtuse tip; and

wherein the film is a layered film including s film provided with a multitude of pass-through pores or slits and a film that does not include pores or slits.

2. The plug body for a medical fluid container according to claim 1 , further comprising a locking means for locking the insertion member to the plug body using an outer edge of the cover, which is provided with a fitting hole, when the insertion member is inserted into the insertion hole.

3. The plug body for a medical fluid container according to claim 1 ,

wherein a peripheral portion of the pedestal portion is beveled.

4. The plug body for medical fluid containers according to any of the claims 1 ,

wherein the penetration resistance of the film against the obtuse tip insertion member is not more than 30 Newtons.

5. The plug body for medical fluid containers according to claim 1 ,

wherein the film, in the event of film rupture caused by the insertion member, is ruptured linearly.

6. The plug body for medical fluid containers according to claim 1 ,

wherein a front surface of the valve has a ring-shaped notch portion, which, upon insertion of the insertion member with an obtuse tip, causes the valve to be sectioned into a portion that is fixed and a portion that expands.
