The present invention relates to a container assembly for accommodating a beverage. The container assembly comprises a collapsible beverage container having a body part for accommodating the beverage and a cylindrical neck part defining a gas-filled headspace. The container assembly further comprises a closure sealing off an opening of the cylindrical neck part. The closure comprises a closure disc, an inner cylindrical part and an outer cylindrical part. The closure disc comprises a beverage outlet for extracting the beverage. The closure further comprises a pressure-relief device located at the closure disc or the inner cylindrical part. The pressure-relief device is capable of establishing a permanent or reclosable opening through the closure or between the closure and the neck part for allowing a flow of fluid from the headspace to an external space when a pressure difference exceeds a predetermined pressure value being lower than the burst pressure of the container.

Devices and methods for a gas tank valve cap with integrated washer storage are disclosed. In examples, a valve cap may comprise a first cavity for covering a portion of a gas tank valve, and a second cavity for housing a washer/gasket. In examples, the washer/gasket may be removed from the valve cap and used to secure a connection between the gas tank valve and a connecting hose line. In further examples, the washer may be re-inserted into the valve cap, and the valve cap may be placed on the gas tank valve for protecting the valve from abrasion and the like.

A pressure relief cap includes a body engageable with a container and rotatable about an axis to couple or decouple the body from the container, a handle is coupled to the body and rotatable about the axis in a loosening direction and an opposite, tightening direction and, a ring member coupled for co-rotation with the handle in the loosening direction. The cap includes relief valve assembly coupled to the body. The ring member and the body include a lost motion region in which the ring member is rotatable relative to the body in the loosening direction. Rotation of the ring member relative to the body in the loosening direction in the lost motion region opens the relief valve assembly. Rotation of the ring member in the loosening direction beyond the lost motion region causes the body to co-rotate with the ring member in the loosening direction.

According to an embodiment, a container containing fluid fitted with a cap that contains a one-way valve that is placed on the upstream opening of a dispensing nozzle. Dispensed fluid is expressed by compressing the flexible walls of the container which serves to open the dispensing nozzle valve. An air recovery vent will be placed in the cap in order to allow the internal and external pressure to equalize after the contents have been partially dispensed. The vent may optionally be channeled up into the container away from the container terminus by use of a small extension tube. The exit of the vent hole/tube contains another one-way valve which prevents backflow of fluid and air while allowing air to enter the container. Thus, the flow of product out of the container and air into the container are both unidirectional.

A dispenser for dispensing flowable material. The dispenser comprises a resiliently deformable body encompassing a closed volume with an optional flexible pouch disposed therein to accommodate the flowable material. A discharge element having at least one discharge opening, along with at least one valve regulating flow from the closed volume or the flexible pouch and through the discharge opening is also provided. The body is configured so that a threshold amount of deformation of the body causes the flowable material to urge from the closed body through the discharge opening or the pressure increase of the closed volume acting on the flexible pouch sufficiently so that flowable material accommodated in the flexible pouch is urged therefrom through the discharge opening.

A liquid storage tank has a breathing valve that vents the tank's headspace at a high-pressure value and admits an ambient gas at a low-pressure value. A controller generates a first control signal when the percentage of the catalyst gas is less than a catalyst threshold, a second control signal when the percentage of the catalyst gas exceeds the catalyst threshold, and a third control signal when the pressure in the headspace is equal to a low-pressure threshold between the breathing valve's low-pressure value and high-pressure value. The first valve is only opened to output inert gas at a discharge pressure greater than the breathing valve's high-pressure value in response to the second control signal. The second valve is only opened to output inert gas at a discharge pressure that is between the breathing valve's low-pressure value and high-pressure value in response to the third control signal.

The receptacle including stacking lugs to help reduce vacuum and friction when de-nesting the receptacles. The receptacle including a lid that helps when storing certain types of goods and/or serves as a seat. A septum or receptacle molded into the lid to allow for injection of inert gases or flushing headspace.

Provided is an automatic air-extracting sealing box cover, comprising a bottom cover and a top cover that are mutually detachably connected, wherein the bottom cover and the bottom cover are connected to form a device chamber, and an automatic air extracting apparatus is mounted in the device chamber; the automatic air-extracting apparatus comprises a power source, a pressure sensor, an air pump, and a controller; the power source is connected to power source input ends of the pressure sensor, the air pump and the controller; an air extracting opening of the air pump and a probe of the pressure sensor project out of a lower surface of the bottom cover; an output end of the pressure sensor is connected to a collection circuit, and an output end of the collection circuit is connected to an input end of the controller; a control signal output end of the controller is connected an on/off control end of the air pump.

A bottle (20) comprising an open-topped outer container (21) comprising a resilient body (22) for holding a water, an inner container comprising a flexible pouch (28) for holding a gel, a closure (24) adapted to fix to the top of the outer container thereby forming an enclosure for containing the water, a fixing (38,42) configured to allow the inner container to be suspended from the closure, an outlet that is in fluid communication with both the outer container and the inner container thereby allowing the outlet to dispense the water and the gel, a switch mechanism (41) including a switch moveable to select between placing the outlet in fluid communication with the outer container and placing the outlet in fluid communication with the inner container, and an air inlet and a one-way valve configured to allow air to flow into the outer container.

A food storage container is described. The food storage container includes a base with sidewalls extending upward from the base. The base and the sidewalk forming an interior volume. A plurality of tracks disposed in the base on the interior of the container. The tracks are configured to accept at least one divider therein. Dividers are placed in the container to create partitions. The container has a lip located at the top of the sidewalls. A lid may be included with the container to seal the container. In one embodiment the lid creates a waterproof seal. Handles may extend from the sidewall such that the handles can be used to carry the container.
