  • the fixing of the mixing and dosing on the lid in particular so that the mixing and dosing is inserted with the lid down in the fixing 110 and this then fixes the lid rotatably.
  • the mixing and dosing 1 is formed in this example as already described. You can see them in the Fig. 1 only the container body 20, which forms a substantially cylindrical interior, and the actuator 21 of the engaging in the breakthrough of the piston unit drive unit, by its manual operation, here by turning, the piston unit towards a closed by the lid 2 outlet for dispensing Mixture can be moved.
  • the Fig. 1 shows the state of the mixing and dosing after the mixing process in which the drive unit is already connected to the container body 20 and the piston unit serves as a movable means of the drive means dosing. During the mixing process, the drive unit with the actuator 21 is not yet used and the breakthrough of the piston unit serves as a guide for the drive shaft of the mixing tool.
  • the inventors have now found that in typical mixing operations of pharmaceutical, cosmetic or similar products comparatively high demands on the fixation of the mixing and metering container during the mixing process exist.
  • tilting of the mixing and metering container can lead to tilting of the mixing tool in the interior of the container body.
  • This can lead to impairments in the mixing process at speeds of rotation of the mixing tool, which may be between 500 and 1500 revolutions per minute (rpm), depending on the product to be mixed or mixed, as well as being problematic for safety reasons.
  • the lid 2 in this embodiment of the invention is designed as follows:
  • the lid 2 has a central axis 3, a lid top 4 arranged at least approximately orthogonally to the central axis 3, and a lid edge 5 adjoining the lid upper side 4.
  • the lid edge 5 has at least one clamping flank which contains a first section 6-1 which is closer to the top side 4 and a second section 6-2 further spaced from the lid top 4, which have at least one common edge 7 at least approximately parallel to the central axis 3.
  • the distance of the clamping edge 6 to the central axis 3 in the first section 6-1 at least in an area smaller than the distance of the edge edge 7 to the central axis 3 and as the distance of the clamping edge 6 to the central axis 3 in a circumferential direction of the lid edge 5 corresponding area of second section 6-2. This will be explained below in greater detail with reference to the Figs. 2 to 6 be explained.
  • each case four clamping flanks 6 are arranged side by side and the two groups of four adjacent clamping flanks 6 are arranged symmetrically to the central axis 3 on opposite sides of the lid edge 5.
  • the Fig. 2 one recognizes the one group of four adjacent clamping flanks 6 in the lower part of the illustration, the other Group on the opposite side of the lid edge 5 in the upper part of the illustration.
  • the Fig. 1 One of the two groups of Frontal can be seen in the middle of the lid 2. The other group is arranged on the opposite side of the lid edge 5 and therefore hidden in this representation.
  • the clamping flank 6 has a first section 6-1 which is closer to the top side 4 of the cover and a second section 6-2 which is further spaced from the cover top 4 and which has at least one common flank edge 7 parallel to the central axis 3.
