A closure element for liquid containers, in particular bottles, includes a stopper engaging the opening of the liquid container (e.g., a neck of a bottle) and a cap (5) covering the edge of the neck opening, the stopper including an inlet channel passing therethrough and optionally an outlet channel, the inlet channel and optionally the outlet channel (42) are respectively provided with an inlet valve or outlet valve, which may be a pressure relief valve (21).

A system and method for dispensing sparkling and other non-pressurized beverages from a container. Sparkling wine and other beverages may be dispensed using a dispensing system that includes a stopper body that can be engaged with the container at the container opening. The stopper body may be arranged to introduce gas into the container during pouring-type dispensing, as well as re-pressurize and seal the container for storage, e.g., to keep a carbonation level of beverage remaining in the container.

A stopper for closing sparkling and other non-pressurized beverage containers. A stopper body may have a carrier member and lip engagement member arranged for sliding movement relative to each other and relative to the stopper body. The lip engagement member may be arranged to engage with a lip of a container neck, and be resiliently biased to move toward the carrier member to provide a seal-forming force on a sealing surface of the stopper body. The stopper may be arranged to introduce gas into the container, e.g., to re-pressurize the container to keep a carbonation level of beverage during storage.

A pump mechanism for vacuum sealing an airtight cavity formed by a container and a lid, including a bore having a first one-way seal allowing air from the airtight cavity to enter the bore and blocking air inside the bore from returning to the airtight cavity and a second one-way seal allowing air inside the bore to leave the bore without returning to the airtight cavity and blocking air outside of the bore from entering the bore, a piston disposed inside the bore, and a chamber of air enclosed by the bore, the first and second one-way seals, and the piston, wherein actuation of the piston in a first direction causes air to evacuate the airtight cavity and enter the chamber through the first one-way seal, and wherein actuation of the piston in a second direction causes air to exit the chamber through the second one-way seal.

A sealing and pressure dosing apparatus, and container filling method, including a capping machine (102) which receives containers (1). Closures (80) are applied to the containers (1) immediately following the raising of pressure within the containers (1) by a pressure dosing system in a pressure sealing chamber (84). Preferably a cooling system is integrated with the capping machine.

A tennis ball container 4 includes a bottle 8, a paper label 10, an inner lid 12, and a paper cap 14. The bottle 8 includes a bottom 18 and a neck 20. The paper label 10 is accommodated in the bottle 8, and is positioned along an inner peripheral surface of the bottle 8. The paper label 10 can be obtained by printing paper. The paper is obtained by agglutinating biodegradable fibers together. In an axial direction of the bottle 8, a position of an upper edge 26 of the paper label 10 is the same as a position of the neck 20, or the position of the upper edge 26 of the paper label 10 is shifted from the position of the neck 20 toward the bottom 18.

A pack comprising a supporting tray (3), a protective film (4) fixed to the supporting tray (3), and a food product (2) placed on the supporting tray (3) and covered by the protective film (4), wherein the supporting tray (3) is constituted of a flat sheet of multi-layer material and comprises at least one paper-based lower layer and one plastic material upper layer, wherein the protective film (4) is sealed to the upper layer of the flat sheet and together with it delimits an inner space (6) of the pack (1) in which the food product (2) is inserted, and wherein a protective atmosphere is present in the inner space (6).

A pressurized dough system includes a package defining an interior volume and a refrigerated developed dough product within the interior volume. The refrigerated developed dough product includes flour, water and pectin in an amount sufficient to substantially increase the internal pressure of the pressurized package as well as the bake specific volume of the dough.

A storage container for a cylindrical tube of viscous construction material includes a body dimensioned to receive a cylindrical tube of viscous construction material. A nozzle enclosure is attached to a top end of the body and is dimensioned to receive a nozzle of a cylindrical tube of viscous construction material. A gasket is positioned between the body and the nozzle that substantially prevents air in the body from entering into the nozzle enclosure. A base seals the cylindrical tube of viscous construction material in the body.

A pressure control box used for transporting objects includes a main body and a cover. The main body has a containing space and includes a pressure valve installed on a side of the main body and communicated with the containing space and an external space of the main body for externally connecting a pressure controller to adjust an internal pressure. The cover covers the opening position of the containing space for sealing the containing space, and the cover has a seal embedded into the inner surface of the cover, so that the cover and the main body are sealed with each other. Therefore, the pressure control box can be used for transporting goods stored at a constant pressure to maintain the quality of goods and improve the efficiency and safety of the goods delivery.
