7. The valve of claim 1 , wherein said second section of said radially outer edge region bears against said first receiving element wall.

8. The valve of claim 1 , wherein said first receiving element wall has a projection which is arranged in a region of said second section of said radially outer edge region of said diaphragm body.

9. The valve of claim 8 , wherein said projection is designed in a manner extending about a full circumference of said receiving element wall.

10. The valve claim 1 , wherein said valve housing wall has, in a region of said second section of said radially outer edge region, a ribbing with at least one circumferencially extending rib which engages in a form-fitting manner into the material of said diaphragm body.

11. The valve of claim 1 , wherein said receiving element wall has, in a region of said second section of said radially outer edge region, a ribbing with at least one circumferencially extending rib which engages in a form-fitting manner in the material of said diaphragm body.

12. The valve of claim 11 , wherein said first receiving element wall has a projection which is arranged in a region of said second section of said radially outer edge region of said diaphragm body, and wherein said ribbing of said first receiving element wall is arranged on a surface of said projection.

13. The valve of claim 1 , wherein said radially inner edge region of said diaphragm body is clamped between a first element and a second element of said drive element, an end side of said first element, which end-side faces said diaphragm body, having a projection which faces said diaphragm body and engages in said radially inner edge region of said diaphragm body.

14. The valve of claim 13 , wherein said projection is spaced apart radially from an inner edge of said radially inner edge region of said diaphragm body.

15. The valve of claim 13 , wherein said projection is designed in a manner extending about a full circumference of said end side of said first element of said drive element.

16. The valve of claim 13 , wherein a region of said end side of said first element, which end side is adjacent to said radially inner edge of said radially inner edge region of said diaphragm body, is rounded as seen radially inward.

17. A valve for separating product media in pipes of a product-carrying system, comprising:

a valve housing having a valve housing interior and defining an axial direction,

a valve body arranged in said valve housing interior,

a drive element connected to said valve body for moving said valve body in said axial direction,

a sealing diaphragm for sealing said valve housing interior against a drive side, said sealing diaphragm having

a radially extending diaphragm body, said diaphragm body having a radially inner opening through which said drive element reaches, said diaphragm body further having a radially outer edge region and a radially inner edge region, said radially inner edge region surrounding said radially inner opening, said radially outer edge region being clamped radially and said radially inner edge region being clamped axially,

said sealing diaphragm being manufactured from a dimensionally stable plastic which is thermally resistant up to at least approximately 130° C.,

wherein said radially inner edge region of said diaphragm body is clamped between a first element and a second element of said drive element, an end side of said first element, which end-side faces said diaphragm body, having a projection which faces said diaphragm body and engages in said radially inner edge region of said diaphragm body, and

wherein said projection is spaced apart radially from an inner edge of said radially inner edge region of said diaphragm body.

18. A valve for separating product media in pipes of a product-carrying system, comprising:

a valve housing having a valve housing interior and defining an axial direction,

a valve body arranged in said valve housing interior,
