A package for delivering a fluid volatile substance includes an impermeable shell that defines a reservoir into which a liquid volatile substance, such as oil, may be at least partially filled. A microporous membrane is placed in covering relation to the reservoir to allow emanation through capillarity of the volatile substance. To absorb any liquid that may seep through microporous membrane during use or storage, an oleophilic layer is heat sealed in covering relation to the microporous membrane. Finally, a foil barrier layer is sealed to the shell in covering relation to the microporous membrane. The foil barrier is releasable and once released will activate the volatile substance contained within the reservoir to transition from its liquid phase to a gaseous phase with the vapors carrying the scent of the volatile substance.

A re-useable partitioning seal used storage containers creates a virtually airtight chambers, to preserve products therein. A disc or differently shaped layer, with flat top and bottom surfaces, is configured to fit against the interior surface of a storage container. A thin, flexible perimeter forming a gasket around the layer, and a handle attached to the layer without fissure or cavity, thereby providing and a single piece, inexpensive re-useable partitioning seal.

A perishable particle compression container stores and preserves a quantity of perishable particles, such as dry good particulates, coffee, tea, or tobacco. The compression container includes a container body and a lid. The container body includes a container-compression blade connected to a lateral wall, a container base, and a container-blade support. The lid includes a lid-compression blade connected to a lid base, and a lid-blade support. The lid-compression blade is positioned within the container body as the lid engages the container body. The lid pivots about the container body to allow the lid-compression blade to rotate around the container-blade support and compress the perishable particles within the container body.

Disclosed is a device for protecting and preserving a substance in a container. The device may include a plurality of overlapping sectors capable of rotating about a pivot point such that the device has a substantially disc shape when fully expanded and a substantially pie shape when partially expanded; and a lip defining an outer diameter of the device when fully expanded. The outer diameter of the device is equal to or greater than an inner diameter of the inner surface of the container.

A system and method for protecting biological or other material from contamination through the steps of filling, freeze-drying, packaging, storing and use are disclosed. A system can include a flexible container, a membrane configured to transmit air or solvent vapor out of the flexible container, and a membrane frame supporting the membrane and engaged with at least one column member. The at least one column member can be configured to maintain the membrane and the membrane frame a spaced distance from one or more contents received within the flexible container. Upon application of a downward force, the at least one column member can assume a collapsed configuration. A method can include inserting a biological material, for example, into a flexible container, freeze-drying the biological material, moving the freeze-dried biological material to a portion of the flexible container that includes at least one port, and sealing the biological material within the portion.

A decanter arranged to permit storage of wine or other beverage while isolated from ambient air and employing a variable size beverage storage volume. A valve may control flow past a piston as the piston is moved relative to a container to adjust a size of the beverage storage volume.

A fluid storage and dispensing system that safely and efficiently stores all grades of motor oil is provided. The system is configured to accurately dispense motor oil into vehicles. The system may also be used for the storage of and dispensing of other fluids.

Aspects and techniques of the present disclosure relate to an internal cover/vent handle arrangement, in association with a container, such as a 5 gallon bucket with a slanted sidewall for evacuating air volume above stored material. The disclosure relates to a squeeze-actuated vent valve arrangement arranged and configured to be easily operated even while deeply recessed in the bucket. The disclosure also relates to a deflectable outer seal arrangement configured to seal against a slanted sidewall of a bucket.

Disclosed is a beverage container including a container body (1) and a floating object (2) for reducing the sloshing amplitude of the beverage, the floating object (2) is set in the container body (1) and floats on the surface of the beverage in the container body (1), the floating object (2) is larger than an opening (3) of a top cover (4) of the container body (1), the floating object (2) is provided with at least one through hole (21) for preventing the floating object (2) from blocking the opening (3) of the top cover (4) of the container body (1).

The present invention relates to a container for keeping fermented food, having for example, a main body for accommodating fermented food in an interior space; a pressing plate coming into contact with the surface of the fermented food in the main body; and a cover for blocking the opening of inside of the main body; wherein the main body has a stepped part protruded inwards from the inner circumferential surface of a neck part at an upper end portion, and the pressing plate has a protruded rim provided to the periphery of the upper end portion thereof so as to be placed on the stepped part, a vertical section provided to the lower end of the protruded rim and having an outer circumferential surface coming into contact with the inner circumferential surface of the stepped part, and a round surface provided at the lower end of the vertical section and having a bottom surface part coming into contact with the surface of the fermented food.
