A closure and filter for a multi-use water bottle. The closure has a main body having an outlet through which fluid passes to be consumed by the user and an air valve remote from the outlet to provide an air channel through the closure distinct from the fluid outlet to allow flow of air into the bottle as fluid passes through the outlet.

A lid for a drinking container includes a lid body, a poppet mouthpiece and a resilient sealing member. The lid body defines a longitudinal axis and includes an outer surface with a vent hole. The mouthpiece seals against a first inner surface of the lid body via an annular seal ring. The mouthpiece is movable between a closed position and an open position to allow fluid inside the container to flow through the mouthpiece. The sealing member is fitted on the lid body to sealingly engage the lid body to an open end of the container. The sealing member includes an annular flange sealingly engaging a second inner surface of the lid body. The flange includes a groove that defines a location on the lid where ambient air flowing into the vent hole can enter a container interior as fluid flows out of the container through the mouthpiece.

A container closure includes an outer cap, an inner cap, and a seal. The outer cap includes a top wall and an outer sidewall extending downward from the top wall. The inner cap is secured within the outer cap and includes a bottom wall and an inner sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom wall. The seal is secured to the inner cap and includes a seal sidewall and a rim extending inwardly from the seal sidewall. The seal sidewall sealingly engages the inner sidewall and the rim sealingly overlaps the bottom wall. The inner cap together with the seal define an air pathway in fluid communication between a space between the outer and inner caps and an air opening formed on the bottom wall of the inner cap and selectively covered by the rim.

A system for food containment and transport is disclosed herein. Exemplary systems utilize a multi-configuration lid operable to connect to a container in different configurations depending on the type of food or item being contained and transported. In one configuration, the multi-configuration lid can be connected to a container to form an airtight seal. In another configuration, the multi-configuration lid can be connected to a container to allow venting of the container. The exemplary lid and container systems disclosed herein a further adapted for easy storage and transport.

A closure may have a top wall and a side wall depending from the top wall. A plug seal device may depend from said top wall within the side wall. The plug seal device may have an upper section, a lower section, and a sealing section proximate the boundary between the upper section and the lower section. The sealing section is operable such that when the plug seal device is inserted in an opening to an inner cavity in a container, the sealing section engages with an inner container surface to provide a seal between an inner cavity of the container and the external environment.

A rectangular perimeter egg carton comprising: a lid, and a base separate from the lid, wherein the lid and base are assembled together to from a closed egg carton, the base having a top wall and a rectangular array of recessed base cells arranged in rows and columns depending from the top wall, each base cell having an open top end, a sidewall and a closed bottom wall and being sized and shaped to hold one egg in a generally upright position with the long axis of the egg disposed in a vertical direction transverse to a base reference plane in which the bottom walls of the base cells reside; the base and lid having respective mating rectangular perimeter edges, including opposing front and rear side edges and opposing left and right side edges, that mate with each other in a closed position to from the rectangular perimeter egg carton for enclosing an egg in each of the respective cells; and a plurality of spaced apart venting ports formed in each of the perimeter side edges of one or more of the base and lid perimeters for releasing moisture from the closed egg carton.

A closure may have a top wall and a side wall depending from the top wall. A plug seal device may depend from said top wall within the side wall. The plug seal device may have an upper section, a lower section, and a sealing section proximate the boundary between the upper section and the lower section. The sealing section is operable such that when the plug seal device is inserted in an opening to an inner cavity in a container, the sealing section engages with an inner container surface to provide a seal between an inner cavity of the container and the external environment.

A receptacle forming a chamber partially filled with an active substance, wherein the receptacle is a body and a cap which closes the body. The cap includes a top wall with a first main side facing an interior of the chamber and a skirt formed with the first main side of the top wall. The body includes a bottom wall and a sidewall. The skirt and the sidewall surround one another in contact with each other. The walls surrounding the chamber include the bottom wall, the top wall and either the skirt or the sidewall. At least one ventilation path is provided between the skirt and the sidewall, such that the ventilation path connects the chamber with the outside atmosphere.

A container closure comprises an annular region forming a counterface against which a gas permeable, liquid impermeable sealing element may be applied so as to urge the sealing element into sealing engagement with the rim of a container opening. The annular region comprises a gas pathway from an interior space opposite the container opening to the exterior of the annular region. The gas pathway may be of closed cross-section extending through the annular region. Alternatively the gas pathway may be of open-sided cross-section and provided in the counterface. Yet alternatively the annular region may comprise a washer, with the gas pathway provided at least partly in the washer and/or at least partly in the remainder of the annular region. A gas permeable, liquid impermeable sealing foil for bonding to a container rim is also disclosed.

A container includes a body having a top and a bottom, with a plurality of receptacles defined within the body and configured to receive an electrochemical cell or battery therein, with each receptacle having an open first end located at the top of the body. The body further includes internal walls separating the receptacles laterally from each other. A cover is removably positioned to cover the top of the body, such that the cover and the body together define a plurality of sides extending between a top wall of the cover and the bottom of the body. A head space is defined beneath an underside of the cover and above the first ends of the receptacles. A vent extends through a first side, and the vent is in communication with the head space to permit gases within the head space to exit.
