Abstract
A needle package (), particularly for packaging needles (N), has a hold-down device () that is disposed in an interior space (I) and serves to secure the needles (N) in the interior space (I). The hold-down device () is formed, for example, by one or two resilient elements, such as clamping lips (), which extend transversely to the needles (N) through the interior space (I). The clamping lips () are disposed on the inside of a segment of the package () that is moved toward the needles (N) after the package has been filled, so the clamping lips () rest against the needles (N). The segment can be formed, for example, by a lid segment () that is seated to pivot on the receiving area () of the package (). This package can be filled particularly simply, and is suitable for various types of needles.
