SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A BAG FOR MEDICAL PURPOSES
First Claim
1. System for the manufacture of a bag for medical purposes, comprising a tube transfer station having a transfer means for transferring a tube coming into the tube transfer station to a holder and for the local severance of a transferred tube piece from a remaining tube of the incoming tube to the holder in order subsequently be able to make the severed tube piece connectable to two film layers for forming an access to the bag, wherein the tube transfer station has a tube holding means on the holder side and, on the other side, a tube pulling means, which are arranged to introduce tensile forces between the severed tube piece and the remaining tube of the incoming tube, while the severance is performed.

Abstract
In order significantly to reduce the risk of contamination of a bag for medical purposes, in particular due to residual particles of tube material caused during cutting of a tube for access to the bag, the invention proposes a system (1) for producing a bag for medical purposes, comprising a tube transfer station (2) with a transfer means (3) for transferring a tube (11) coming into the tube transfer station (2) to a holder (10) and for the severing there of a tube section (17) transferred to the holder (10) from a remaining portion (18) of the incoming tube (11) in order subsequently to be able to make the severed tube section (17) connectable to two film layers for forming an access to the bag, wherein the tube transfer station (2) has a tube-tension-holding means (15) on the holder side and also a tube-pulling means (16), which means are designed to introduce tensile forces (19) between the severed tube section (17) and the remaining portion (18) of the incoming tube (11) while the severing takes place.

19. Method for the manufacture of a bag for medical purposes, in which a tube coming into a tube transfer station is transferred by means of a transfer means to a holder for local severance of tube piece from a remaining tube of the incoming tube to the holder so that the tube piece is subsequently connected to two film layers for forming an access to the bag, wherein the following steps are performed:
-
a. Feeding the incoming tube to the holder; b. Tightly holding the incoming tube on the tube piece to be severed on the side of the holder by means of a tube holding means; c. Longitudinally pulling the incoming tube between the tube holding means and a feed so that tensile forces act on a designated point for severing; and d. Separating the tube piece from the remaining tube of the incoming tube. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)
