The problem of disassembling an air release valve in the field by removing the valve cover to remove the internal working components is solved by a quick release mechanism on the valve cover that can be operated by hand. The quick release mechanism can include a radially tapered groove with tapered parallel tracks that define a slot in the valve cover and a guide on the valve body that engages with the tracks through the slot. The guide can be inserted into a socket in the radially tapered groove and a shoulder piece on the guide can slide on the tapered parallel tracks, which brings the valve cover towards the valve body. An O-ring and a U-cup seal arranged in recesses in the valve body can be compressed by the valve body cover to form airtight seals and the shoulder piece can be lodged in a locking pocket to keep the valve cover in place.

A system for compensating for atmospheric pressure changes for high-altitude transport of packages containing powdered and/or granular material may include: one or more packages including a one-way degassing valve configured to flow gaseous substances produced by the powdered and/or granular material outside the one or more packages. Each package may include: a casing; and a containment element configured to wrap the casing. The casing may include: a main body made of expandable material; a capping device associated with the main body; and an insertion opening in the main body. The capping device may include: a tubular sleeve including first coupling means and a bottom wall; a closure element including second coupling means; and first and second one-way valves associated with the bottom wall. The first one-way valve can be configured to allow insertion of gases. The second one-way valve can be configured to allow outflow of gases.

A stopper for a food jar is described that may be used to store and transport food items. The stopper includes a bottom wall and a sidewall. The stopper includes one or more vent passages connecting the bottom wall and the sidewall to provide pressure relief. A vent gasket is provided at the bottom wall that opens when pressure inside of the container is elevated to allow air to pass into the vent passages and vent outside of the container.

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.

An expandable triangular pizza storage container with a set of microwaveable triangular trays for the separation, microwaving and serving of individual slices of pizza. The storage container has a series of concentric triangular compartments that are expanded from a flexible polymer, accordion-style container body. The lid also has a triangular configuration with a replaceable compressible gasket, a set of four locking wings extending from each side that frictionally engage a rigid triangular top ring of the container body, and a central vent. The trays may incorporate uniform concave pockets to facilitate crisping of the pizza crust in the microwave and be of a solid or cored design, of microwave and dishwasher friendly material.

A container closure. The closure comprises a pressure closure assembly and an outer release shell configured to be coupled thereto. The assembly comprises a relief valve and an inner shell having a base wall, a pressure relief slot, and an outer skirt extending away from the base wall and including first and second portions. The release shell includes a first portion having a base wall configured to overlap a portion of the inner shell base wall, and a tab corresponding to the slot of the inner shell. The first portion further includes an outer skirt extending away from the first portion base wall and configured to wrap around the first portion of the outer skirt. The release shell further includes a second portion having a base wall configured to overlap a portion of the inner shell base wall, and an outer skirt extending away from the second portion base wall.

A collapsible food container, comprising a collapsible container and a lid assembly, the collapsible container including an upper portion, a lower portion, and a seating wall, the seating wall coupled to a first end of the upper portion and the lower portion coupled to a second end of the upper portion opposite the first end, the upper portion being collapsible as to transition the collapsible container between an expanded state and a collapsed state, the lid assembly including a rigid collar and a rigid lid, the rigid collar removably coupled to the seating wall of the collapsible container and the rigid lid removably coupling to the rigid collar.

Disclosed is a vapor-tight container comprising a container body having a first extension formed to extend outwards along a rim of a sidewall thereof and a locking protrusion bent downwards from an end of the first extension, and a container lid configured to cover an upper portion of the container body so that the inside of the container body is sealed.

Disclosed herein are embodiments of therapeutic substances that contain solid sodium percarbonate for use in a bath, and packaging for the therapeutic substances. The solid sodium percarbonate can be dissolved in a liquid, such as water, to produce a hydrogen peroxide solution. Hydrogen peroxide solutions can be provide beneficial effects to a user. The titrated sodium percarbonate can be mixed with other chemicals/materials in a pre-made packaging for ease of storage and using with a bath.

Plastic pressure container including a main body portion, a finish portion, and a closure assembly. The main body portion defines an interior space. The finish portion is unitary with the main body portion and defines a mouth in communication with the interior space. The finish portion has an inner surface, an outer surface and an upper rim proximate the mouth. The inner surface has an inner undercut defined therein proximate the upper rim. The outer surface has an outer undercut defined therein proximate the upper rim. The closure assembly is mounted to the finish portion in engagement with both the inner undercut and the outer undercut.
