"Roti" ist Laborslang fuer Rotationsverdampfer (jedensfalls als ich noch im Chemielabor gearbeitet habe)
Peer comment(s):

agree SusanneM : Oder "evaporation flask". Jedenfalls geht es eher um den Kolben und nicht um den gesamten Rotationsverdampfer.

Danke
agree Dr. Johanna Schmitt : In dem Labor, in dem ich gearbeitet habe, war auch der Rotavapor der "Roti", und der Rotikolben ist dann wohl der entsprechend verwendete Rund- oder Spitzkolben.

Roti

I think it is the brandname, try and search on Roti®
Peer comment(s):

neutral Marga Shaw : Admittedly, the company Carl Roth calls some of its products Roti(R)... . However, this does not apply here; "Roti" is also short for "Rotationsverdampfer". For the remainder please see below (e.g. sibsab's answer).

rotary evaporator

A rotary evaporator (or rotavap) is a device used in chemical laboratories for the efficient and gentle removal of solvents from samples by evaporation.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_evaporator

The rotary evaporator principle is the most common method, as it is an efficient, fast and gentle way to separat liquids. The rotating flask generates an effective heat transfer for fast evaporation preventing a local overheating whilst leading to a smooth mixing of the content.

Peer comment(s):

neutral Marga Shaw : The question here is about the evaporator flask and not about the rotary evaporator.
