20200216237 · 2020-07-09 ·

A device is provided that assists with equalizing air pressure within a container with the atmospheric air pressure as liquid is being poured from the container and includes one or more relatively short air tubes. The device is provided with the ability to simultaneously equalize pressure in the container while also providing a drip collection mechanism. The device may be configured for unidirectional pouring or multi-directional pouring.

Lid for containers under vacuum

A closure includes an overcap having an annular skirt, and an annular wall extending inwardly from the skirt. A lid is carried by the overcap radially within the annular skirt, and includes a hub, and an annular margin extending radially outwardly with respect to the hub, and having upper and lower surfaces. An annular container seal extends circumferentially continuously around the annular margin. One or more vents may extend through the annular margin between the upper and lower surfaces thereof at one or more discrete circumferential locations radially inward with respect to the container seal. One or more vent seals may be disposed at the one or more vents between the lid and the overcap.

RECLOSABLE LID FOR A FOOD OR BEVERAGE CONTAINER AND HAVING A VACUUM OR PRESSURE RELEASE BUTTON
20200115116 · 2020-04-16 ·

A sheet metal lid has a rim portion removably secured and sealed to a container and the lid includes a vent button having a top wall portion surrounded by a side wall portion and an outwardly projecting flange portion. The flange portion of the button has a short arcuate score or shear line extending substantially into the sheet metal, and additional score lines extend into the flange portion at lesser depths to protect a coating on the inner surface of the lid. A resilient sealant material may be bonded to the inner surface of the vent button, and the opposing sheet metal portions of the score line form a small gap for releasing a vacuum or pressure from the container in response to a controlled downward pressure on the top wall portion of the vent button.

A liquid dispenser is for the delivery of pharmaceutical liquids, including a droplet dispenser, the liquid reservoir thereof being formed by a squeezable bottle body. Two measures secure the liquid dispenser, namely the provision of a cover body, an application of force on the squeezable bottle body being able to be prevented thereby, as well as a cap with a rotatable locking ring. The removal of the cap and the transfer of the cover body into a use position requires the deformation of an annular partial element.

Lid for containers and related methods
20240083640 · 2024-03-14 ·

A lid designed to allow a user to see and adjust the humidity levels of a container using a hygrometer and pocket for humidity packs. The lid also allows this to be accomplished without removing the lid because a hatch gives the user access to the inside of the container and underside of the lid, where the pocket is located. Also, the hatch on the lid provides a more efficient and easier method of accessing the contents of a container because a user can simply open and close a hatch, instead of needing to unlock a lever locking latch to remove a lid.

A push type exhaust cover, includes: a first cover body, configured with at least one through hole; and a second cover body, one side thereof in combination with one side of the through hole, a curved line configured between the second cover body and the through hole, a periphery of the second cover body in combination with a periphery of the through hole with a dotted broken line, an engagement portion projected from a top surface of the second cover body, pressing the engagement portion down causing the dotted broken line of the second cover body to be broken to fall into the through hole, allowing a top end of the engagement portion to press against another side of the through hole to make the through hole to be in communication with the outside so as to achieve an exhaust effect.

Pressure relief assemblies and methods

The present disclosure generally relates to a venting system that includes a wall of a lid or a container. The lid or container defines a central longitudinal axis, and a line segment that is measured from the longitudinal axis to an outermost surface of the lid or container, and a pressure relief feature that is disposed along the lid or container. The pressure relief feature includes a thinned region of the lid or container that defines a minimum thickness that is less than 40% of a maximum thickness of the respective lid or container.

PUSH BUTTON CLOSURE

A container closure includes a generally planar body having a product side and a customer side. The container closure body defines a limited container opening and an actuation location. Further, the container body includes a force concentrating construction disposed adjacent the limited container opening.
