The present invention provides, medical rubber parts that do not physically and chemically affect the quality of preparations. The present invention relates to a medical rubber part obtained by press-molding an unvulcanized rubber mainly containing a rubber for forming a liquid-contacting portion and an unvulcanized rubber mainly containing a butyl-based rubber for forming a non-liquid-contacting portion, wherein a color difference dE between the liquid-contacting portion and the non-liquid-contacting portion is 6.0 or more in NBS units.

A thermoplastic elastomer composition including: 100 parts by mass of a hydrogenated block copolymer (a); from 10 to 50 parts by mass of a polypropylene resin (b); from 5 to 100 parts by mass of a polyphenylene ether resin (c); and from 75 to 200 parts by mass of a non-aromatic softener (d), wherein the hydrogenated block copolymer (a) contains a hydrogenated block copolymer (a-1) obtained by hydrogenation, the hydrogenated block copolymer (a-1) comprising at least one polymer block A1 including mainly a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon compound monomer unit, and at least one polymer block B1 including mainly a conjugated diene compound monomer unit, a weight-average molecular weight of the hydrogenated block copolymer (a-1) is from 100,000 to 550,000, and a content of all vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon compound monomer units in the hydrogenated block copolymer (a-1) is more than 20% by mass and 50% by mass or less.

A heatable canteen includes a hand held vessel having a bottom and upward extending wall which terminates into a top having an open top receiving surface, a removable cap connected to said top receiving surface, the removable cap having an outer portion which removably sealably connects to the top receiving surface and has an interior channel extending therethrough and has a valve seat in a lower end thereof and a valve ball installed in a manner to bias the valve ball against the valve seat to a normally closed position. A secondary vessel is provided about the hand held vessel. A lid is connected to the vessel or cap by way go a heatable line. A distillation tube removably connects to the vessel.

A sealing system for food applications that provides a housing element with two or more bolts and respective holes for clamping. A flanged element is clamped to a frame of a machine, and a rubber seal placed along the base perimeter of the housing element. The seal includes a first portion of the rubber profile placed in the areas distant from the holes and a second portion of the rubber profile adjacent to the holes. The rubber profile of the second portion has a larger cross section than that of the first portion, such that the deformations of the rubber profile are made virtually uniform to prevent the formation of fractures, and therefore of bacteria traps, in the rubber.

A components (17) packaging structure for pharmaceutical containers, comprising at least one tray (10), which has at least one open side for introducing and extracting at least one supporting shelf (11) which is parallel to a bottom plane (14) of the tray (10) and which rests in correspondence of the inner walls (15) of the tray (10); said supporting shelf (11) has a spatially predetermined distribution of first seats or cavities (13) within which closing components and/or generic accessories of said containers, such as rubber caps (17), nuts (20) with crimping snap or other types of sealing nuts and/or caps, are placed, so that the vertical axis of each closure component is perpendicular to said bottom plane (14) of the tray (10), said structure thus constituting a guarantee of sterility and cleanliness of said closing components and/or generic accessories which are inserted in said seats or cavities (13).

A package includes a container, a flowable product dispensably disposed within the container, a closure carried by the container, and an indicator within the container and adapted, upon contact with air, irreversibly to change a characteristic of the indicator that is visible from outside of the container to indicate to a user that the package has been used, wherein the closure includes a closure member carrying the indicator and having a wedge opening, and a wedge member carried in the wedge opening.

A kit for use in combination with a squeeze bottle includes a bottle cap or plug configured to seat and seal multiple sizes of a bottle opening or spout by threaded attachment to or compression fit in the spout. The cap or plug includes an axial throughbore which receives multiple sizes and configurations of fluid tubes and discharge nozzles which when properly attached to an inserted into a squeeze bottle enables controlled pumping and discharge of fluid such as hydraulic fluid or liquids.

A liquid container including: at least two compartments (2; 3) which are each provided with a fluid inlet and outlet and which are connectable to a fluid flow circuit, respectively, at least one communication area (4) between the compartments (2; 3), at least one opening (5) for filling the container, at least one plug (6) for closing the opening (5) for filling the container, the opening (5) for filling the container is an opening common to the compartments (2, 3) and the container further includes at least one member (7) for closing the communication area (4) between the compartments (2, 3), the closing member being movably mounted between an open position of the area and a closed position of the area, the closing member being in a closed position of the area in a closed position of the filling opening plug.

A portable beverage container includes a container body defining an interior volume adapted to store a liquid, and a handle assembly including a first handle portion movably coupled to a first exterior portion of the container body and a second handle portion movably coupled to a second exterior portion of the container body. The first and second handle portions are movably coupled to one another to move the handle assembly between an open configuration, in which the first and second handle portions extend away from the container body, and a collapsed configuration, in which the first and second handle portions are immediately adjacent the container body.

This invention relates to a bottle closure assembly (10) for use in the efficient production of sparkling wines. The invention comprises: a stopper (12) for sealing engagement within the finish and/or neck portion(s) of a bottle (100); a passage (18) within said stopper extending longitudinally from a wine-side opening (20) at one end thereof; and a valve member (30) located within said passage. The valve member is selectively gravity-responsive thus allowing passage of liquid and/or solid and/or gaseous materials to be permitted or prevented dependent upon the orientation of the bottle closure assembly. This invention also discloses a disgorgement method for use in the production of sparkling wines.
