# Device for moving sterile elements

## Abstract

Described is a movement device ( 1 ) for sterile elements, immersed in a sterilisable environment, which comprises, in a load-bearing frame ( 2 ), a screw feeder ( 3, 3′ ) suitable for rotating about its central axis ( 30, 30′ ) and extending along a longitudinal direction (X). The screw feeder ( 3, 3′ ) is for feeding sterile elements (F) using motor means ( 91, 92, 93 ). A fundamental feature of the screw feeder ( 3, 3′ ) is that it has a conduit 4′ ) which is at least partly hollow inside it. The conduit ( 4, 4′ ) is in communication with the outside by means of holes ( 41, 41′ ) and has a controlled access point (PAC), for connection or disconnection of the conduit ( 4, 4′ ) with one user device ( 5, 6, 7 ) at a time.
