A package for an object includes a support element with a coupler configured to hold the object captive in a given orientation of the object, and release the object by pivoting the object. The support element alone defines a first chamber containing the object, the support element also includes at least two parts that can be coupled and uncoupled relative to each other by inter-fitting with partial overlap, so as to form the first chamber containing the object. A stopper is coupled to the support element of the object by inter-fitting with partial overlap such that the support element presents a grip portion that projects from the stopper. A cover is coupled to the stopper by inter-fitting with partial overlap so as to cooperate with the stopper to define a second chamber inside which the grip portion of the support element extends, and while the cover is coupled to the stopper, a grip portion of the stopper projects from the cover.

Package for an object and an assembly including such a package

The invention relates to an assembly comprising a transparent 'outer' packaging element () defining a chamber, and an 'inner' packaging element () received in said chamber of the outer packaging element (). Said inner packaging element () comprises at least first and second packaging portions () that are transparent, each of which has at least one cavity () for receiving an article, and a sealing sheet that is at least partially opacifying, and that comprises two portions applied over the two packaging portions () in such a manner as to close said cavities (). The two packaging portions () of the inner packaging element () are folded over towards each other towards a configuration in which the two portions of said sealing sheet applied over the two packaging portions () of the inner packaging element () face each other.

Packaging, preferably medical, including two packaging elements

A package for an object such as a preferably-sterile medical component, includes: a support element provided with elements for coupling the object; a stopper that can be coupled to the support element in such a manner as to define a first chamber for containing the object, and such that a grip portion of the support element projects from the stopper; and a cover that can be coupled to the stopper in such a manner as to define a second chamber inside which the grip portion of the support element extends, and such that a portion of the stopper coupled to the support element projects from the cover.
