Valve for a flexible packaging with an aerating and/or venting opening and method for aerating and/or venting a flexible packaging

The invention relates to a valve (4) for a flexible packaging (1), comprising a valve housing (11) to be connected to an aerating and/or venting opening (6) of the packaging and having a first opening (22) and an opposite second opening (35), and a flexible membrane (24) movable between a position which closes the first opening and a position which leaves the first opening clear. The valve is provided with guide means (28) for guiding the movement of the membrane, wherein there is space (40) in the housing adjacently of the membrane for the purpose of forming a passage between the first and second opening when the membrane takes up-its open position. The invention also relates to a flexible packaging with an aerating and/or venting opening and a valve arranged therein. The invention further relates to an assembly of an aerating and/or venting device and such a valve. The invention also relates to a method for evacuating a flexible packaging via a venting opening while making use of such a valve and a venting device connected thereto. The invention finally relates to a method for flushing a flexible packaging with gas via an aerating and/or venting opening by making use of such a valve and an aerating and/or venting device connected thereto.

BAG-IN-KEG CONTAINER WITH FIXED PRESSURE PRV
20210395067 · 2021-12-23 ·

A bag-in-keg container for a carbonated beverage has a container body C, a flexible bag B within the container body, and a valve closure V attached to the container body. The valve closure includes a gas inlet port (11), a liquid dispensing port (12), and spring-loaded valve member (6) to sealably close the gas inlet and liquid dispensing ports. An adapter (20) sealingly attached to the flexible bag B incorporates a bag PRV (26) to vent gas pressure from within the flexible bag. A container PRV (40) vents gas pressure from between the container body C and the flexible bag B. The bag PRV has a valve shuttle with one side exposed to gas pressure within the flexible bag B and an opposite side exposed to gas pressure within a sealed plenum chamber (37). The bag PRV therefore operates at a fixed pressure independent of the differential pressure between the bag and the outer container. This solves the problem of venting excess pressure within the keg whilst still allowing the dispensing gas to achieve the equilibrium

ARRAY OF SANITARY TISSUE PRODUCTS

An array of toilet tissue products comprising a first package that conveys strength and a second package that conveys softness. Lint, basis weight, total dry tensile, absorbency, and softness are common intensive properties of the first and second toilet tissue products and one or more of these common intensive properties can be different between the first and second toilet tissue products.

STEAM-RELEASING POUCH
20210380322 · 2021-12-09 ·

A steam-releasing pouch includes two laminated sheets forming an accommodation compartment that accommodates a content, a sealing portion that seals the two sheets to form an opening that opens part of the accommodation compartment, and a steam-releasing sealing portion formed in the sealing portion to open as pressure of the accommodation compartment increases in a state in which the opening is sealed. The steam-releasing sealing portion includes a first sealant layer having at least a first base layer that faces the accommodation compartment and a second base layer laminated with the first base layer and a second sealant layer having at least a third base layer that faces the accommodation compartment and a fourth base layer laminated with the third base layer. The first base layer and the third base layer are joined together.

CONTAINERS FOR TRANSPORTING AND STORING LIQUID COMPOSITIONS
20210371181 · 2021-12-02 ·

A container which is useful for safely storing and transporting compositions, such as liquid organic peroxide-containing compositions, which may be flammable, combustible, susceptible to exothermic decomposition, explosive and/or otherwise hazardous, is provided. The container includes a containment vessel having thermoset polymer-containing walls, as well as a vent mechanism. The containment vessel may be manufactured by a rotational molding process using a thermoplastic polymer, such as a polyethylene, which is crosslinked to provide the thermoset polymer.

CHILD RESISTANT STORAGE CONTAINER
20210371172 · 2021-12-02 ·

A child-resistant storage container comprising two rigid boxes of relatively equal height and width manufactured from or coated with materials that produce enough friction between the contact points of the boxes to retain the inner box in the outer box when shook.

GAS DISCHARGE VALVE FOR PACKAGING MATERIAL
20220204238 · 2022-06-30 ·

Proposed is a gas discharge valve for a packaging material, the gas discharge valve being attached on an upper surface of a packing material in a manner that covers a through-hole formed in one side of the packing material and being configured to discharge to the outside thereof only gas within the packing material, the gas discharge valve including: a high-adhesiveness layer attached to an external surface of the packing material and adhered to a portion of the external surface in the vicinity of the through-hole; and a low-adhesiveness layer formed inside the high-adhesiveness layer and adhered to cover a top opening of the through-hole, where, when gas occurs within the packing material, the low-adhesiveness layer is inflated by pressure, a portion thereof is raised, and the gas is discharged, and when the pressure is released, the low-adhesiveness layer seals the through-hole, thereby blocking introduction of outside air.

Medication packaging and dispensing system

A medication packaging and dispensing system is provided. The system may include a plurality of medication booklets containing medication and a tray that is configured to retain the medication booklets. Each medication booklet may include a sequential tab assembly of pull tabs that aligns with a plurality of front cutouts and a plurality of back cutouts. This alignment configuration facilitates dispensing the medication from the medication booklet. The tray may include a riser that extends from a bottom wall of the tray at an oblique angle, and a first guide panel including a plurality of linear stops.
