The invention relates to a device for sealed transfer between two enclosed volumes, comprising a first flange and a second flange () which define a passage opening into the enclosed volumes and can be secured to each other by a first bayonet connection, a first door and a second door () which close off the passage openings and can be secured to each other by a second bayonet connection, the first door () being hingedly mounted on the first flange () by means of a hinge () comprising a hinge pin, characterized in that the device comprises an external manual control lever () which is secured to a rotary pin penetrating the first flange () and which is coupled to the hinge pin in such a way that the actuation of the control lever () drives the hinge pin, thus opening or closing the first door ().

Device for the sealed transfer between two enclosed volumes, comprising an external control lever

The invention relates to a sealed transfer device between two enclosed volumes, comprising two flanges () that can be secured to each other by a first bayonet connection, two doors () which close off the passage openings defined by the flanges and can be secured to each other by a second bayonet connection, and a control mechanism comprising a control member () that is movably mounted on the first flange () between a closed position and an open position of the doors (), characterized in that the control mechanism comprises a member () for locking the second door () to the first door (), ensuring that the doors are locked together when the control member () switches into the open position of the first and second doors, said locking member () being integrated into the first door ().

Device for sealed transfer between two enclosed volumes, featuring secure opening

The invention relates to a door assembly () allowing a sealed transfer between two enclosed volumes, comprising a flange () arranged to delimit an opening in one of the enclosed volumes, and a door () that extends along an axis (C) and is hingedly fastened to/mounted on the flange () so as to move from a closed position in which the door () closes the passage opening (), into an open position, characterized in that the door () is fastened to the flange () by a double-joint linkage mechanism () comprising a first joint () arranged to allow a rotational movement about an axis (A) perpendicularly to the axis (C) of the door by a maximum of 30 degrees in relation to the plane of the passage opening (), and a second joint () arranged to allow a rotational movement about an axis (B) parallel to the axis (C) of the door.

Door assembly allowing sealed transfer between two enclosed volumes

The invention relates to a sealed container () comprising a flexible film () which is arranged to define an internal space () and a through-opening, and a sealed connection device () which is arranged to allow the flexible film () to be connected to a complementary connection device of a sterile enclosure, while ensuring sterile communication between the internal space () of the container () and that of the enclosure, the connection device () comprising a flange to which the flexible film () is attached, the flange delimiting the through-opening of the flexible film (), characterized in that the flange is constituted by two different pieces distinct from each other, respectively forming an external sleeve () and an internal sleeve () the flexible film () being kept gripped between the external sleeve () and the internal sleeve ().

Sealed container comprising a device for releasable connection to an enclosure

The invention relates to a sealed container () comprising a container body () having a through-hole () that is delimited by a flange and is closed by a removable door () mounted on the flange and an annular seal located between the flange and the door (), characterized in that the flange consists of two separate concentric sleeves, one of the sleeves defining an outer flange body () arranged to allow a connection of the container body () to a flange having a complementary shape on an enclosure, the other sleeve defining an inner flange body () arranged to allow a connection of the door () to the flange, the outer flange body () being made entirely or partially of a resistant plastic material selected from plastics that are resistant to autoclave sterilization cycles, while the inner flange body () is made of a metal alloy.
