Abstract

An adhesive label for a multi-part container having a threaded member and a container body includes a first, sheet-like label portion adapted to be attached to the threaded member of the container, and a second label portion adjacent the first label portion and adapted to be attached to the container body of the container. The second label portion has a comb-like structure with strip-shaped fixing elements such that the adhesive label couples the threaded member to the container body relative to a condition applied to the container and opposes movement of the threaded member relative to the container body.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A system comprising:
a multi-part syringe having a threaded member and a syringe body, and
an adhesive label applied to the syringe such that a first label portion of the adhesive label is attached to the threaded member ( 31 ) and a second label portion of the adhesive label adjacent to the first label portion is attached to the syringe body, such that the adhesive label couples the threaded member to the syringe body, the adhesive label having an RFID transponder coupled to the first label portion and comprising a chip and an antenna structure connected to the chip by means of a conductor track,
wherein the first label section comprises a severing element, the conductor track of the RFID transponder covering the severing element at least in sections, such that when the syringe applied with the adhesive label is opened, the adhesive label and the conductor track can be severed in a predetermined manner along the severing element and an opening of the syringe can be indicated electronically by means of the RFID transponder.

2. The system according to claim 1 , comprising:
a closure coupled to the syringe body such that the threaded member is disposed between the syringe body and the closure, wherein the first label portion extends to the closure.

3. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the threaded member is formed as a Luer-lock thread and the syringe is formed as a Luer-lock syringe.

4. The system according to claim 3 , wherein the first label portion of the adhesive label is attached to the Luer-lock thread and the second label portion of the adhesive label is attached to the syringe body and the adhesive label counteracts a movement of the threaded member relative to the syringe body.

5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive label comprises an initial opening indicator configured to predeterminedly sever the adhesive label and to indicate an opening of the syringe when the syringe applied with the adhesive label is opened.

6. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the first label portion comprises a severing element, such that when the syringe applied with the adhesive label is opened, the adhesive label can be cut through in a predetermined manner along the severing element and at least a first partial element of the first label portion can be removed together with the closure of the syringe from the second label portion and the syringe body of the syringe and an opening of the syringe is visually indicative.

7. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the syringe body and the threaded member and/or the closure are formed circumferentially identically.

8. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive label comprises a protective layer providing a protective function against UV radiation, against penetration or leakage of a solvent, humidity and/or another small molecular substance.

9. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the threaded member and/or the closure is formed with an outer surface that is circumferentially coextensive with an outer surface of the syringe body, thereby providing a predetermined adhesive surface for the adhesive label.

10. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the threaded member and/or the closure is formed with an outer surface that is configured to be predetermined smooth in coordination with an adhesive of the adhesive label, thereby providing a predetermined adhesion for the adhesive of the adhesive label.

11. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the threaded member and/or the fastener is formed with an outer surface having a predetermined roughness.

12. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the RFID transponder is integrated in an area of the adhesive label arranged on the threaded element and/or the closure of the syringe.

13. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive label is formed as a full-area RFID label and covers the threaded element and/or the syringe body and/or the closure.

14. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the second label portion comprises a comb-like structure with a plurality of strip-like fixing elements adapted to be attached to the syringe body of the syringe.

15. A system comprising:
a multi-part syringe having a closure and a syringe body, and
an adhesive label applied to the syringe such that a first label portion of the adhesive label is attached to the closure and a second label portion of the adhesive label adjacent to the first label portion is attached to the syringe body, such that the adhesive label couples the closure to the syringe body, the adhesive label having an RFID transponder coupled to the first label portion and comprising a chip and an antenna structure connected to the chip by means of a conductor track,
wherein the first label section comprises a severing element, the conductor track of the RFID transponder covering the severing element at least in sections, such that when the syringe applied with the adhesive label is opened, the adhesive label and the conductor track can be severed in a predetermined manner along the severing element and an opening of the syringe can be indicated electronically by means of the RFID transponder.
