Abstract
A pressure vessel including a lid, wherein the lid is fixed to a corresponding lid receptacle, wherein the lid has a first bearing surface that extends in the circumferential direction and interacts in a sealing manner with a second bearing surface on the pressure vessel, wherein fixing elements are provided for fixing the lid to the pressure vessel. The fixing elements are wedge-shaped, rest on an abutment surface of the pressure vessel and on a contact surface of the lid such that, when the fixing element is moved in a direction that causes a wider section of the wedge shape to be located between the abutment surface and the contact surface, the bearing surfaces are brought closer together or braced against each other.
