Abstract
The invention relates to a device 51 for closing a plurality of digestion vessels 1 the openings of which are in each case covered by a cover 3, comprising a plurality of positioning spaces 53 for the digestion vessels, the positioning spaces 53 being able to be distributed in a circumferential row R1 and being accessible from outside, and a plurality of closing devices 73 for pressing the covers 3 against the vessels. In order to improve the capacity of the device 51 with regard to the number of digestion vessels 1 further inner positioning spaces 53 are arranged to be offset inwardly with respect to said positioning spaces 53.
Claims24
A device for closing a plurality of digestion vessels the openings of which are in each case covered by a cover, comprising
- a plurality of positioning spaces for the digestion vessels, the positioning spaces being able to be distributed in a circumferential row and being accessible from outside, and
- a plurality of closing devices for pressing the covers against the vessels, wherein
- further positioning spaces are arranged to be offset inwardly from said positioning spaces.
A carrier segment for closing a plurality of digestion vessels the openings of which are covered in each case by a cover, comprising a positioning space above which is arranged a closing device for pressing the cover against the vessel, two opposed side faces of the carrier segment extending in a wedge configuration, characterized in that the carrier segment has at least three positioning spaces, two positioning spaces being arranged on each side of a median of the wedge configuration in the divergent portion of the carrier segment, and one positioning space being arranged in the narrow portion of the carrier segment, the carrier segment having a support column which extends upwardly between the positioning spaces and supports the closing device.
A device for closing a plurality of digestion vessels the openings of which are in each case covered by a cover, comprising a plurality of positioning spaces for the digestion vessels, the positioning spaces being distributed around a central support column, wherein
- a common closing device is provided for the digestion vessels which is vertically displaceable by means of a screwing part which is journalled in the end portion of the support column is provided, and wherein
- a roller bearing which takes up an axial screwing force is arranged between the common closing device and the screwing part.
A device for closing a pot-like digestion vessel the opening of which is covered by a cover, comprising
- a pressure-applying plunger,
- a screwing part arranged coaxially with the pressure-applying plunger,
- a resilient pressure-generating means arranged between the pressure-applying plunger and the screwing part, wherein
- the screwing part and the pressure-applying plunger fit around one another in a socketed arrangement.
A device for closing a pot-like digestion vessel the opening of which is covered by a cover, comprising
- a pressure-applying plunger,
- a screwing part which fits over the pressure-applying plunger in the manner of a cap and which has in its lower edge portion a screw thread by means of which it can be screwed to an abutment which surrounds the digestion vessel, wherein
- the abutment is formed by a supporting ring which is fixed to the digestion vessel at the circumference thereof.
A device for closing a pot-like digestion vessel, the opening of which is closable by a cover which preferably can be braced against the cover by means of a closing part, wherein
- the cover has passing through it an outlet channel which is closed by means of a valve which automatically opens the outlet channel at an internal pressure in the digestion vessel which exceeds a given value.
