Capping system for liquid medicine bottles
View Patent ↗A save-and-draw capping system may be snapped or otherwise attached/connected to the top of a liquid medicine bottle having a rubber surface that may be punctured using a syringe to draw medicine. Using the save-and-draw capping system, the rubber surface may be sealed after it has been punctured. A secondary seal may be used to apply pressure to the cap of the liquid medicine bottle. A draw attachment, such as a draw needle, may be attached to the save-and-draw cap so that a hose may be connected to the liquid medicine bottle when multiple injections are needed. The save-and-draw capping system may be removed from one liquid medicine bottle to be used on another liquid medicine bottle.
1. A save-and draw capping system comprising:
a clamping system comprised of two clamps not integral to each other that combine to substantially surround and connect to an upper ring of a liquid medicine bottle;
a locking seal having an orifice, the locking seal screwed to the clamping system, thereby creating a positive seal for the liquid medicine bottle once tightened;
a cap connected to the locking seal, the cap having a seal surface that seats into a sealing surface of the orifice of the locking seal to create a positive seal when tightened; and
a draw attachment,
wherein the cap covers a rubber surface of a liquid medicine bottle so that it remains sealed once the rubber surface has been punctured by the draw attachment.
2. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 1 , wherein the cap is a flip-top cap having a plastic hinge.
3. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 2 , the flip-top cap further comprising:
a raised nipple on a bottom side that receives a rubber hose for use of the save-and-draw capping system with a remote injection gun.
4. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 1 , wherein the cap is a screw-on cap.
5. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 1 , the locking seal having a sealing surface on a base that uses the rubber surface of the liquid medicine bottle to form a seal.
6. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 1 , the draw attachment comprising:
a tab and a slot capable of attachment to a top of the liquid medicine bottle.
7. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 6 , wherein the attachment is through threading or friction.
8. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 1 , the draw attachment including a vent to receive air while not letting liquid leak out of the cap when placed on the draw attachment.
9. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 1 , wherein the save-and-draw capping system is sized and shaped to fit more than one type of liquid medicine bottle.
10. A save-and draw capping system comprising:
a clamping system that connects to an upper ring of a liquid medicine bottle, the clamping system comprised of two clamps not integral to each other that combine to substantially surround and connect to the upper ring; and
a cap secured to the clamping system, the cap having a flip-top lid with a hinge and a seal surface that seats into an orifice of the clamping system to create a positive seal when tightened.
11. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 10 further comprising:
a draw attachment that accesses contents of the liquid medicine bottle through puncturing a rubber surface of the liquid medicine bottle,
wherein the cap is closed to cover and seal rubber surface of a liquid medicine bottle once the rubber surface has been punctured by the draw attachment.
12. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 11 , wherein the draw attachment is inserted into the liquid medicine bottle by opening the flip-top lid.
13. A save-and draw capping system comprising:
a draw attachment inserted into a liquid medicine bottle and capable of accessing contents of the liquid medicine bottle;
a snap-on system having an orifice and snap-on fingers positioned in a channel of the draw attachment, the snap-on fingers capable of gripping sides of the liquid medicine bottle; and
a flip-top cap having a plastic hinge, the flip-top cap connected to the snap-on system, the cap having a seal surface that seats into a sealing surface of the orifice of the snap-on system to create a positive seal when tightened, the flip-top cap further comprising a raised nipple on a bottom side that receives a rubber hose for use of the save-and-draw capping system with a remote injection gun,
wherein a rubber surface of a liquid medicine bottle remains sealed once the rubber surface has been punctured by the draw attachment.
14. The save-and-draw capping system of claim 13 , the draw attachment including a vent to receive air while not letting liquid leak out of the cap when placed on the draw attachment.
