Integration of a thermal switch in a lock of a sterile goods holder

摘要

The closure (10) has a thermo switch and an adjusting element that are arranged together in an open position such that deformation of the thermo switch causes movement of the adjusting element in a closed position. The adjusting element lies against a closure compensator (3) and presses the compensator in a stopper, in the closed position. The thermo switch is designed as a bimetal, which consists of two layers of different materials. A holder (7) of the switch and the adjusting element are made of plastic and/or metal. A plastic cushion comprises sodium acetate-trihydrate and a metal-pad. An independent claim is also included for a method for closing the closure.
