  • Patent number: 11649104
    Abstract: A connecting system for providing a fluidic connection, preferably between containers, wherein the connecting system has at least two connecting arrangements configured to provide the fluidic connection, namely a first connecting arrangement and a second connecting arrangement, each of which is fluidically sealed in an initial state, wherein the first connecting arrangement has, in particular, an opening region that is deformable outside the opening region and is configured such that deformation causes the first connecting arrangement to open in the opening region.

  • Publication number: 20210290488
    Abstract: A connecting system for providing a fluidic connection between containers, the connecting system having at least two connecting arrangements configured to produce the fluidic connection. Each container has an initial state in which the two containers are fluidically separated from one another and a connected state in which the two containers have been fluidically connected together by a relative movement of the containers. A securing device prevents relative movement of the containers in the initial state, and a receptacle is provided in which the securing device can be accommodated for enabling said relative movement. The system is usable in a method for preparing a mixture of substances in which the containers are placed in a connecting orientation with the securing device arranged between the containers in a manner preventing fluidic connection of the containers, and releasing the securing device for enabling fluidic connection the containers by a relative connecting movement.

  • Patent number: 10730682
    Abstract: A container system having at least two containers, preferably bottles, each of which has a removal opening, preferably closed off by a septum in each case, wherein the containers have, on a side remote from the respective removal opening, particularly on the bottom of the respective bottle, a connecting arrangements for providing a fluidic connection between the containers, and/or having at least one container which forms a removal opening. The container has, on a side remote from the removal opening, a removable, cap-shaped cover which forms a holding device, for a region of the container forming the removal opening, so that the cover can be used as a support foot for the container when it is held by the holding device in the region forming the removal opening.
