A container includes a container body and a lid, which has an outer lid wall portion surrounding a central portion. The outer lid wall portion provides a lid-side sealing surface, which engage with body-side sealing surface, when the lid is applied to the container body to close the container. The container further includes a securing ring inserted within the outer lid wall portion. The securing ring having a lower portion and an upper flange portion extending from the lower portion at an acute angle (α) of less than 80° from vertical.

A fastener device for closing a fluid reservoir (1) having a neck (10) with outer peripheral reinforcement (11) that co-operates with the neck to define a bottom shoulder (12). The fastener device includes a fastener ring (2) for holding a closure member (4) on the neck (10), and which includes a peripheral skirt (21) extending around the neck below the bottom shoulder (12). The skirt (21) is provided with fastener elements (26a, 26b) forming contact zones (27a, 27b) for coming into engagement with the neck (10) below the bottom shoulder (12). A blocking hoop (3) is provided that is engaged around the peripheral skirt (21) in a final mounted position. The peripheral skirt (21) forms vertical blades (22) separated by axial slots (23), the blocking hoop (3) forming vertical branches (33) that are arranged in the axial slots (23) between two vertical blades (22), in the mounted position.

Ammunition containers incorporate an advanced sealing/latching arrangement as well as a lightning mitigation scheme that exhibits a number of advantageous features. A cover assembly is provided that separates the latching functionality from the sealing functionality such that the latching assembly is rotateably engaged and the cover seal is provided via radial (rather than axial) compression of an annular sealing component. In addition, a novel lightning mitigation system also functions as a convenient method of grasping and transporting the containers.

A tank and closure cap apparatus is disclosed. The tank has an upper end or top with a manhole like larger diameter opening that can be closed with a lid having a smaller diameter opening equipped with an outlet fitting. A specially configured shroud protectively covers the lid clamp and is secured with a closure cap that seals the outlet fitting.

A locking assembly for a closure system having a first vertical member configured to extend downward along a sidewall of a closure and including a first hook element and a second hook element. A second vertical member having a first hook element and a second hook element is configured to be connected to the first vertical member such that the second vertical member extends downward along an opposite side of the sidewall of the closure from the first vertical member. When the locking assembly is installed on the closure system in a locked position, the first and second vertical members are dimensioned and configured so that the first hook elements are disposed above opposing sides of a top surface of the closure and the second hook elements are disposed beneath opposing sides of the sidewall of the closure for preventing the closure from being removed from the container.

Embodiments of the present invention provide water bottle cap assemblies suitable for attachment to an endoscopic device and a water source. The water bottle cap assembly can include a plurality of ports and an engageable member to sealingly engage the cap with a water source. The assembly also includes a plurality of tubular members, each tubular member coupled to a respective port so as to be in fluid communication therewith. The assembly can include a cap having a grippable surface that is overmolded onto the cap. The cap can also have a soft inner seal on the interior surface, and the soft inner seal can be integrally formed with the overmolded grippable surface. The cap can have a top that is pressfit onto the main portion of the cap. The grippable surface material can be overmolded over the top of the cap.

A closure is provided for a pressure vessel or pipelines that can provide quick and easy access to the interior of a pressure vessel or pipeline and means for a pressure tight seal between the hub and door. The closure can incorporate means for mechanically fastening the door to the hub using an external split clamp ring actuated by a toggle mechanism. A locking mechanism can be provided to safeguard against unintended closure actuation and provides a layer of redundancy to the holding characteristics of the toggle mechanism. The locking mechanism can be interlocked to a pressure alert system to ensure any differential pressure condition contained within the closure is detected prior to disengaging the locking mechanism and actuating the toggle mechanism.

It is desired to make an improved lid suitable for pails, overcoming the problem of existing complexities and leaks. The invention is achieved by a lid (300) having a lid skirt (320) provided with an inner collar (328) that engages an outer collar (222) of a sidewall (220) of a pail (200), the lid skirt (320) being provided with a fastening mechanism (330) for tightening the inner collar (328) around the sidewall (220) below the outer collar (222). Corresponding to the lid (300) a pail (200) is provided having a simplified structure that is supported mechanically by the lid (300). Furthermore, a thermally insulated compound pail is disclosed, the compound pail comprising a first inner pail (200) that is inserted into a second outer pail (200) such that a space (404) is formed between said pails (200).
