Abstract
A tight connection device for the aseptic transfer of a biopharmaceutical product includes: a stationary temporary clamping means keeping the container hermetically clamped against the chamber; a stationary unlocking means capable of switching the container from an initial locked position to an intermediate unlocked position; a stationary locking means; and an annular functional crown capable of being rotated to actuate the stationary unlocking means and the stationary locking means of the container. The stationary unlocking means and the stationary locking means are mechanically linked to the annular functional crown and arranged such that the rotation of the annular functional crown and the end locked position. The device further includes stationary immobilising/release means capable of allowing and preventing the annular functional crown to rotate.
