Patent number: 11814196Abstract: A pressure-tight storage vessel contains a liquid, has an elongated main body rotationally symmetrical with respect to an axis of symmetry, and forms, at least partially, a rotationally symmetrical hollow space in which the liquid is substantially received, wherein the main body is terminated at its bottom side by a base. Furthermore, at its top side, the storage vessel has an opening which is closed off in a pressure-tight manner by a closure, has a plurality of reinforcement elements, which bears against the main body at the outside, which extends parallel to the axis of symmetry of the main body, and arranged rotationally symmetrically about the axis of symmetry of the main body. In each case between adjacent reinforcement elements, respective externally exposed wall sections of the main body are formed, and the composition of the exposed wall sections permits a pressure-tight insertion by at least two hollow needles.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2019Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: EUROIMMUN Medizinische Labordiagnostika AGInventors: Bianca Huth, Alexander Kowtun, Lars Koschinat, Frank Mollenhauer, Winfried Stoecker
