Receiving container, method for filling a receiving container, method for transporting receiving containers and use of a receiving container

Abstract

A receiving container comprising a body and a lid. The body has an open end and a closed end. The lid is introduceable at least partially into the open end of the body in order to seal the body. The lid comprises at least one plastic component which is designed such that the lid can be perforated by a canula and is fluid-tight after the canula has been removed. The receiving container is designed such that the lid can assume at least first and second closing positions. In the first closing position, a chamber of the body can be filled, via a cannula, through the lid and gas can escape from the chamber via at least one ventilation path. In the second closing position, the at least one ventilation path is closed.
