A container for a sterile fluid, such as blood, infusion or nutrient solution or cleaning fluid, normally includes a filler device for the supply of fluid into the container and a tubular evacuation device (3) for enabling discharge of the fluid from the container upon penetration thereof by a connection device shown in part at (45). The evacuation device includes a self- sealing sealing diaphragm (23) of an elastic material. A first cylindrical space (32) is provided and is arranged to accommodate the connection device (45) in sealing surface contact with the evacuation device, and a second space (21), enlarged in relation to the first space, is disposed between the first space (32) and the sealing diaphragm (23). The elastic self-sealing sealing diaphragm (23) is arranged to bend inwardly into the enlarged space (21) when pressure is applied thereto by the connection device. When the connection device is removed, the diaphragm (23) self-seals to preserve the sterility of the contents of the container. Protective diaphragms (14) and (17) are also provided. <IMAGE> |
