Abstract

A positioning device comprises a rod-shaped portion which in its distal end, is releasable attachable to said first sealing member such that a rotational movement and a directional movement of the rod-shaped portion are transferable to the first sealing member, which makes the positioning of said first sealing member controllable and the way of sealing improved and more secure.
