Transfer cell connection port comprising a flange and a door with an external door actuation system including an anti-rotation device

Abstract

This disclosure relates to a connection port (1) for a sealed transfer cell, this port (1) comprising a flange (2) having an external face (8) and an internal face (7) which carries a hinge (4) to which is attached a door (3) movable between an open position and a closed position in which this door (3) closes a central opening (6) of the flange, the hinge (4) comprising two fixed bearings rigidly attached to the flange (2) which jointly carry a rotating element to which the door (3) is rigidly attached, the flange (2) being equipped with an operating system (16) including an operating lever (14) at the level of its external face for opening and closing the door (3) from the external face (8).The operating system (16) includes an anti-rotation device (21) to ensure, on the one hand, that a force exerted on the lever (14) causes a movement of the door (3), and on the other hand, that a force exerted on the door (3) does not cause a movement of this door (3).
