1. A transfer device for transferring a medium out of, or into, a bottle having a cylindrical body and a neck that is sealable by a closure, comprising:
a first adapter component configured to be positioned on the bottle, and
a second adapter component interacting with the first adapter component, and moveable in a longitudinal direction of the bottle, wherein the second adapter component comprises a delivery element for piercing the closure,
wherein, after moving the second adapter component along the first adapter component in the direction towards the closure and locking the second adapter component, the first adapter component is non-detachably secured in position at the bottle, or around the bottle, and
wherein the first adapter component comprises:
a casing wall surrounding the bottle along a circumference of the casing wall, the first adapter component having a hollow-cylindrical geometry with a front edge extending on a side of the bottle having the closure,
a bottom section covering a base of the bottle, at least in sections,
a ring element connected to a front edge of the first adapter component,
first tongue-shaped elements extending from the ring element, in a direction of, and inclined relative to, a longitudinal axis of the first adapter component, and
second tongue-shaped elements extending inwardly from the ring element,
wherein, when the bottle is positioned in the first adapter component:
the first tongue-shaped elements rest on, or are configured to rest on the bottle, or at a transition between the neck of the bottle and the circumferential wall of the bottle, and prevent the bottle from being pulled out of the first adapter component, and
the second tongue-shaped elements contact the cylindrical body of the bottle, and position the first adapter component concentrically around the bottle.
