The present disclosure is directed to a lid component for use with a jar and a band. The jar and band may be a mason jar and a band for a mason jar. The lid component is made of an air-impermeable material and is dimensioned and configured to be releasably attachable to the jar by the band and to seal a wide mouth opening of the jar in an air-tight manner. The lid component comprises a one-way valve adapted to allow gas to escape from the jar while, at the same time, prevent air from entering the jar, when the lid component is releasably attached to the jar. The one-way valve comprises a bottom opening and a protruding top wall. The lid component further comprises a sealing wall that extends radially outwardly from the bottom opening. The sealing wall is substantially flat.

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 insulating container having a base and a lid is provided. In some examples, the insulating container further includes a pressure regulation device. In other examples, the insulating container may include latching devices comprising an elastomeric latch upper and a semi-rigid latch lower configured to engage an insulating container keeper when the lid is in a closed and a secured position. In still other examples, the latch upper and the latch lower are configured in a recessed position, and flush with a front side of the insulating container lid and flush with a front side of a bottom portion of the insulating container when the latches secure the lid in a closed position.

A non-spill drinking cup valve system (10) comprises a lid assembly (12) and a flexible valve member (14). The flexible valve member (14) is removably attachable to the lid assembly (12). The lid assembly (12) comprises a spout (16) having a drinking aperture (18) therein. The flexible valve member (14) comprises a protruding member (26) having a tip (52) and a drinking valve element (28) in the tip (52), which, in use, controls fluid flow into the spout (16) and out of the drinking aperture (18). The protruding member (26) and the spout (16) are of a complementary shape and, when the lid assembly (12) and the flexible valve member (14) are attached together, the protruding member (26) extends substantially into the spout (16).

A container assembly includes a container having an open top formed in an upper section of the container. The upper section of the container includes an inner peripheral surface, an outer peripheral surface and a flange formed between the inner and the outer peripheral surfaces. The open top is defined by the inner peripheral surface. A cover made by flexible material includes a skirt which includes a first lip, a second lip and a valley formed between the first and second lips. When the cover is mounted to the open top of the container, the flange of the container is engaged with the valley, the first lip is fully in contact with the inner peripheral surface, and the second lip is fully in contact with the outer peripheral surface so as to form an air-tight status. By lifting the second lip, the cover is easily removed from the container.

The mechanical breather valve includes a valve body, on which is installed one-way air inlet and outlet components. A tank, for environmental protection, is fitted with the breather valve and closed so that no volatile gas will be exhausted, when the pressure within is balanced with the outside. When the pressure within is negative, the one-way air inlet hole will draw air from outside to keep the balance of pressure. When the pressure within is increased, one-way air outlet hole will exhaust the additional air. When the tank is tilted or placed upside down, the breather valve can prevent the oil from flowing out of the tank for safe usage.

A self-venting self-resealing pre-cut elastomeric closure for vials, bottles and the like, comprising a dished elastomeric septum supported for closing an opening in a container, a cut across the dished elastomeric septum, and additional cuts defining with the cross cut one or more flap areas elastically displaceable from a closed condition to a venting condition in response to insertion of a liquid transfer implement through the central area of the septum dish.

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 insulating container having a base and a lid is provided. The lid may be rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration and may be secured, via one or more latching devices, in the closed configuration. In some examples, the insulating container further includes a pressure regulation device. In other examples, the latching devices further include an elastomeric latch upper and a semi-rigid latch lower configured to engage an insulating container keeper when the lid is in a closed and a secured position. In still other examples, the latch upper and the latch lower are configured in a recessed position, and flush with a front side of the insulating container lid and flush with a front side of a bottom portion of the insulating container when the latch device secures the lid in a closed position.
