Patent

CA 2322312

The invention relates to a filter (1) made of a flexible flat material (2), comprising at least one seal (3) which is firmly fixed to the flat material (2) and extends along a closed line. Said seal (3) runs along an edge area of the flat filter material (2). To produce the filter (1) provided for in the invention, a linearly closed seal (3) is deposited by means of a foaming device on the flat material (2) which is held by a device. After application the seal is polymerised and so becomes joined to the flat material (2). To use the material in medical trays, the flat filter material (2) must be such that no micro- organisms are able to penetrate it. To arrange such a filter (1) on a partial tray surface having through openings in such a way as to provide a seal which ensures sterility, it is sufficient to configure a closed sealing line which extends around the through openings, and to fix the seal (3) of the filter (1) along the line tray parts to be connected with cooperating compression surfaces. Thanks to the elasticity of the seal (3) a sufficiently good joint is obtained even with low compression pressure and if the compression surfaces are not absolutely even. A further advantage of the joint between the seal (3) and the flat filter material (2) is that the filter (1) can also be arranged on a lower side if the seal (3) is pressed into a corresponding groove, without it becoming detached from said lower side due to gravity.

Un filtre (1) en un matériau plat souple (2), présente au moins un joint (3) lié de façon rigide audit matériau et s'étendant le long d'une ligne fermée. Ce joint (3) longe le bord du matériau (2) du filtre. Pour fabriquer le filtre (1) selon l'invention, un joint fermé linéaire (3) est appliqué sur le matériau plat (2) maintenu par un dispositif, conjointement avec un dispositif de moussage, ce joint étant ensuite polymérisé et se trouvant ainsi lié audit matériau plat (2). Pour l'utilisation dans des plateaux médicaux, le matériau plat du filtre (2) doit être d'une nature telle qu'aucun micro-organisme ne puisse le traverser. Pour agencer un tel filtre (1) sur la surface partielle d'un plateau muni d'orifices de passage, et en vue d'obtenir une obturation garantissant la stérilité, il suffit de réaliser une ligne d'étanchéité fermée, s'étendant autour des orifices de sortie et de fixer le joint (3) du filtre (1) le long des éléments du plateau à assembler, avec les surfaces comprimées coopérantes. En raison de l'élasticité du joint (3), on obtient une obturation satisfaisante, même pour de faibles pressions de compression, et même dans le cas où les surfaces de compression ne sont pas exactement planes. La liaison du joint (3) avec le matériau (2) du filtre présente en outre l'avantage que le filtre (1) peut être disposé, par compression de son joint (3), dans une rainure correspondante, même sur une face inférieure, sans qu'il se détache de cette face inférieure par suite de la pesanteur.
