The present disclosure relates to a radio-frequency identification-equipped pressure chamber for a beverage container, said pressure chamber comprising: a lid part; a base part, said lid and said base part defining a sealed inner space for accommodating and encapsulating said beverage container, said base part or lid part comprising an inner connector part adapted to be engaged to a corresponding beverage container outlet, said inner connector part arranged on an inside of the base part or lid part; and an outer substantially annular gasket part arranged on the inside of the base part or lid part and surrounding the inner connector part, said outer substantially annular gasket part adapted to be engaged with a corresponding hollow annular space of a closure of the beverage container, the outer substantially annular gasket part comprising a substantially planar annular antenna adapted to propagate radio waves to a radio-frequency identification tag arranged on an outer rim of the closure. The disclosure further relates to pressure system for a beverage comprising a collapsible beverage container and a pressure chamber, wherein the pressure system includes RFID capabilities.

A powder management container includes a keg body having first and second ports. The keg body has an interior for storing a metallic powder. The first port is defined by the keg body and is fluidly coupled to the keg body interior for transferring metallic powder into and from the keg body interior. The second port is defined by the keg body and is fluidly coupled to the keg body interior for controlling the atmosphere within keg body interior. Methods of making powder management containers and managing powder for additive manufacturing techniques are also disclosed.

A package includes a container formed to include an interior region and a mouth opening into the interior region and a closure coupled to the container to close the mouth. The closure is made from a film coupled to a brim included in the container.

Embodiments described herein include layered mesh containers and methods for using the containers to safely transport and dispose of airbag inflators having ammonium-nitrate-based propellant. For example, a container is provided that can hold multiple airbag inflators and withstand up to 4 moles of matter being deployed from an inflator having ammonium-nitrate-based propellant. The container can contain the inflator and any shrapnel associated with the explosion while also venting gases expelled as a result of the explosion. Various container designs are provided, along with methods for using these containers.

The present disclosure shows a variety of storage container venting assemblies which allow for venting of gasses to equalize pressure differentials created between the interior of the container and the atmosphere. The venting assemblies are capable of venting gasses out of a container when pressure is higher inside the container and into a container when pressure is higher in the atmosphere.

A container includes a body and an upper head and a lower bottom. The container includes a first opening in the upper head, the first opening having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the body. The first opening can include a rim extending from the upper head. The container further includes a second opening in the upper head, the second opening including a vent.

An overpack salvage drum including a drum body and a lid. A bottom wall and side wall of the drum body cooperate to define an interior of the drum body. The lid is configured to close an open top of the drum body. The lid includes at least two independent lid threads to engage with corresponding independent drum threads provided on the drum body. The lid includes a plurality of alternating castellations having a flat inner facing side and castellations having an arcuate inner facing side, which can be interdigitated with castellations on another lid when two lids are stacked together, or can be used to lock with a drum body to rotationally secure a drum body relative to the lid when in a stacked arrangement. The lids include lugs and recesses, or rings that allow for secure stacking of the lids.

A single-use beverage barrel for one-time use, produced from a primarily cylindrical casing part, deep-drawn bottom and lid parts, having an opening in the center of the lid part, which is sealed by a plastic fitting and wherein the casing part is produced from stainless steel and has a wall thickness of 0.8 mm or less and the bottom part and the lid part are also produced from stainless steel and have a wall thickness of 0.8 mm or less.

A container for storing, shipping and dispensing a beverage comprises a generally rectilinear body defining an interior volume and having, a generally planar front side, a generally planar rear side, a generally planar first lateral side, and a generally planar second lateral side, and plural curvilinear corner portions, and a top, and a bottom, and a tap coupler anchor defining a spear hole that communicates with the interior volume, and the tap coupler anchor releasably engages with a dispensing coupler which fluidically communicates with the spear hole to dispense the beverage from within the interior volume of the generally rectilinear body.

TopSink is an automatic drainage device that includes a floatable funnel with a flexible discharge line connected to a discharge port on an interior of a barrel. The funnel rises with the level of the collected water and or rain until it nears the barrel's maximum capacity, when it is triggered to sink and drain out a predetermined volume of water. As the funnel sinks it continues to drain water until it is caught by at least two predetermined depth adjustable rods. The catch rods establish how much water is drained from the barrel each time capacity is reached. Water or rain continues to drain from the TopSink until the water or rain level gets to the level of the catch rods. Upon further water or rain collection, the funnel begins to float again on the surface of the water, until capacity is reached again.
