An identification system for medical sterile containers and mesh trays for accommodating medical instruments. The system includes one or more sterile containers, one or more mesh trays, and one or more identification plates. Each identification plate includes an interface. At least one counterpart interface is complementary to the interface and formed or arranged on each sterile container and each mesh tray. The interface and the counterpart interface are designed to retain at least one identification plate on one of the sterile containers or on one of the mesh trays.

Identification system for sterile containers and mesh trays

A holding clip is designed to be fixed in a holding contour of a housing part of a sterile container and/or to be removed from the holding contour without tools. The holding clip has at least one at least partly spring-elastic clamping section designed to provide a clamping force to secure the identifying element and at least two holding sections that adjoin the clamping section on both sides and that are designed to engage into an undercut of the holding contour in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner. A sterile container can include such a holding clip.

Sterile containers for medical objects

A container system includes a container or a sterile container to which an attachment part can be fastened. For this purpose, the sterile container has a fastening portion which is formed integrally with or integrally in a closed container wall of the container, to which the attachment part can be fastened in a positive fit or locked in a spring-elastic manner.

Interface for fastening attachment parts to sterile containers

A phase change material is used for the production of a sterile state indication means for a sterilization container. A sterile state indication means for a sterilization container includes a fluid-tight case containing a phase change material. In this assembly, the case wall of the case includes at least one transparent zone and an activator which can be actuated in order to release an activation energy and/or crystallization seeds. The activator is in contact with the phase change material. Further, a sterilization container includes a container trough and a container lid, including a sterile state indication means. The sterile state indication means is provided either on the container trough or on the container lid, and the activator, in the closed state of the sterilization container, is in direct or indirect connection with the respectively other element among container trough and container lid.

Sterile status indicator by means of phase change

A surgical clip includes a first clamping arm and a second clamping arm rotatably coupled to each other and prestressed against each other into a closed position by a spring in the rotational direction, a first housing part being formed or arranged on the first clamping arm and a second housing part being formed or arranged on the second clamping arm, the housing parts forming a housing in which the spring is received.
