A closing/locking mechanism for a sterile container includes an actuation lever, a tension bow or claw coupled to the actuation lever, and an engagement element forming an undercut and with which the tension bow or claw can be brought into operative engagement to apply a tensile force to the engagement element. The tension bow or claw is mounted for sliding transversely to the tensile force to be applied. A spring is arranged in an operative position relative to the tension bow or claw in such a way that, when a predefined actuation position of the actuation lever and a predefined/predefinable sliding position of the tension bow or claw are reached, in which position the tension bow or claw already reaches behind the engagement element, the spring applies a compressive force to the tension bow or claw in the direction of the tensile force.

Container closure

A container seal includes a locking bolt, which has on one end portion or central portion thereof a push-in/latch compartment which is open in the transverse direction relative to the lock axis and is formed or provided with an undercut acting in the direction of the latch compartment opening; a clip or tab, wherein the clip or tab is arranged on the other end portion of the locking bolt; and a bolt or bar which is arranged on the free end/end portion of the clip or tab and has on the free end/end portion thereof a latch device which is coupled to the bolt via a predetermined breaking point.

Container seal

A filter covering for a sterile container lid, for completely covering at least one gas exchange portion, which is provided on a lid component of the sterile container lid, on an outside of the sterile container lid, the filter covering having at least two clip portions arranged opposite to each other on the filter covering, which are adapted to engage in a form-fitting manner in at least two clip receiving portions provided on the lid component, and by which the filter covering is mountable to and dismountable from the lid component without tools.

A modularly structured lid for a sterile container includes a lid component, which has at least one gas exchange portion, on which, on the inner side of a lid, at least one filter device can be arranged, and at least one filter covering by which the at least one gas exchange portion can be completely covered on an outside of the lid. The lid component has at least one standardized clip receiving portion and the filter covering has at least one standardized clip portion, by which the filter covering and the lid component can be interlockingly fixed to each other, and can be mounted and removed without tools. A sterile container can include such a lid and a filter covering for such a lid.

A drain valve for a sterile container includes: a valve housing; a bypass that connects a container gas volume with an external gas volume; a valve body that blocks the bypass; and an actuator that displaces the valve body between a passage position and a blocking position. The valve body is displaceable according to a temperature and/or a pressure of the bypass gas volume. The valve housing has: at least one holding web, at least part of which can be located in a holding bracket of the valve receptacle; and a closure. The valve housing is pivotable from an open position into an installation position in which the closure can be fixed to a closure receptacle. When the valve housing is transferred into the installation position, the valve body is transferred into the blocking position and subjected to a closure force.

Sterile container security seal

A filter cassette which is part of a filter system can be fastened to a sterile container lid. The sterile container lid serves to close a sterile container and to make a gas exchange possible between the container exterior and the container interior, without recontaminating the container material. In addition, the filter system fulfils a valve function. In order to center the filter cassette with respect to the sterile container lid, a first centering portion is provided on the filter cassette. The first centering portion interacts with a second centering portion on the sterile container wall section when the filter cassette is inserted into the sterile container lid.

A security seal includes a base with a locking projection and a head connected to the base with at least one blocking tab. Each blocking tab is connected to the head via a hinge element, together with a safety closure with a first closure part and a second closure part, which can be moved between an open position and a closed position relative to the first closure part. The first closure part has a seating on which the base of a security seal can be engaged so that, when the second closure part is in the closed position, a blocking tab of the security seal overlaps the second closure part on the side opposite the first closure part. A security container includes a container tub, lid and safety closure, wherein either the first or second closure part is arranged on either the container tub or lid.

Security seal

The present invention discloses a security seal with a seal base with at least one locking projection and a seal head connected to the seal base with at least one blocking tab, whereby each blocking tab is movably connected to the seal head via at least one hinge element, together with a safety closure with a first closure part and a second closure part, which can be moved back and forth between an open position and a closed position relative to the first closure part, wherein the first closure part has a seating on which the seal base of a security seal can be engaged so that, when the second closure part is in the closed position, at least one blocking tab of the security seal at least partially overlaps the second closure part on the side of the second closure part opposite the first closure part, and additionally, a security container with a container tub, a lid and a safety closure, wherein either the first or second closure part is arranged on either the container tub or the lid, respectively.

A surgical device for stabilizing or immobilizing moved tissue or for positioning organs, especially a part of a beating heart, includes a flexible arm, especially a link arm, fixed or fixable to a base member which arm can be brought into different positions and/or attitudes and at the free end of which at least one retaining element is arranged, and comprising a tightening mechanism by which the arm can be fixed at a desired position. The tightening mechanism is tightened and/or released by means of a manually controllable external power source.
