Abstract: The container comprises a connector having a positive connection, static friction elements (6), which are arranged on a circular running track and around the circumference of a circle, circumference of a circular surface, a spherical surface and/or inclined plane and rises in one direction depending on length of an angle (alpha ), and a device for attachment of a lever arm at or in the proximity of the static friction element and/or opposite to the connector. The static friction elements: have hardened surfaces with a coating (9, 10); and are glued and/or pressed on a surface element. The container comprises a connector having a positive connection, static friction elements (6), which are arranged on a circular running track and around the circumference of a circle, circumference of a circular surface, a spherical surface and/or inclined plane and rise in one direction depending on length of an angle (alpha ), and a device for attachment of a lever arm at or in the proximity of the static friction element and/or opposite to the connector. The static friction elements: have hardened surfaces with a coating (9, 10); are glued and/or pressed on a surface element made of a bio plastic or pressure casting material, on container parts and/or on a holding mechanism. The surfaces of the friction elements consist of different materials; are arranged in parts of a circle, quarter-circular shape, semi-circular shape, cylindrical shape and all-over or part of the surface; are mutually arranged in a cavity of a curved circular path or in a cylinder; are arranged one above the other or one behind the other or displaced on a curved surface; consist of two elongate elements that are parallelly displaceable on one axis; and have different heights. The coating is: a scratch-proof, easily sliding coating; and applied on one part of the container and/or in an inner space (3) of the container. The lever arm is releasably arranged. Each friction element is mechanically rotatable in an angle of 1-180[deg] and in an angle of 1-30[deg] , which allows static friction forces to resolve and/or open again. The surfaces of the friction elements rubbing one on the other continues to increase with increasing height, where the friction elements rise in its height only in one-hundredth mm region. The container further comprises: a storage space, which is well sealed by the friction elements; a recess extending away from the curved circular path and the circumference of a circle, a circular surface, a spherical surface, an inclined plane, a cylinder and/or a circular arc; a mechanism for holding an object (12); an electronic interface such as an electronic socket; a spring element; an aperture and/or breakthroughs in a container wall; a receiving unit for the objects; a device such as a helical spring element, a pneumatic element and a hydraulic element for moving out the object in the longitudinal direction; a source of light such as an LED, an organic LED and/or a laser light source; cooling fins; a sensor unit such as a motion sensor, an acoustic sensor, a moisture sensor, a smoke sensor, a radio-frequency identification sensor such as a transmitter, a receiver and a transponder and a light sensitive sensor including a photo sensor; a circuit breaker; a wireless connection; a speaker; an electronic or mechanical timer; a microprocessor with or without permanent memory unit; a digital interface for transfer data in the inner space of the container; an infrared and/or ultrasound radio technology such as high frequency radio technology; a display for moving images; a power supply such as an electric power source and/or a generator; a vibration apparatus; an electronic operation surface in the form of keyboards such as micro Keyboards; and a focusing device comprising the friction elements. Electronic terminals are arranged on an outer side of the container. The static friction forces of the friction elements act in the region of the recess. The surface element comprises an elevation, which is made of a different material than the recess. The holding mechanism: consists of a resilient and/or springy material made of rubber, bio plastic, foam material, a flow substance, cork, timber, leather, permanent magnet and/or rubbery self adhesive or a spring plate; is adjustable by an adjustment screw, a variable air bag, a shift mechanism and/or a variable spring mechanism; comprises a cleaning device for the electronic interface of universal serial bus (USB) storage and/or external serial advanced technology attachment (ESATA) storage, micro secure digital (SD) cards and/or adapters for micro SD cards and/or subscriber identity module (SIM) cards and/or solar modules; and has an inner dimension of less than 1 mm x 11 mm. The container has an inner diameter of 12-21 mm. The inner space of the container is flat, rectangular and/or round. The data memory is held and/or supported at the electronic interface. The object is displaceable on a longitudinal axis of the container, and is a rod-shaped, circular-, semicircular-, cylinder-shaped object. The object and/or the container part is hydraulically driven by a pneumatic motor. The breakthroughs: lie parallelly opposite to each other and/or one behind the other, where an optical device is supported in the breakthroughs; and comprise a seal (13). The friction elements are arranged directly at an optical element such as a lens and/or a prism or at a lens receiving mechanism and/or opposite to the optical element. The lenses and/or prisms are stored and/or rotated in the axial direction. The static friction elements are prolonged elements such as rod-shaped elements and/or semicircular- or cylindrical shaped elements.
