Exemplary embodiments of a safety nozzle and safety valve for portable gasoline containers are provided. A safety nozzle for a container can be provided, comprising a proximal end configured for placement in a safety valve, a distal end having a spout, a housing having an elongated portion extending from the proximal end to the distal end, a sliding bezel extending from an exterior of the housing to a sliding piston in an interior of the housing, a piston head having a first end at the proximal end and a second end for abutment with the sliding piston in the interior of the housing, and a retaining spring configured to maintain a holding pressure on the sliding piston to maintain the piston head in a closed position preventing liquid flow from the proximal end into the housing.

A capless refueling mechanism includes a fill opening side shut-off valve disposed near the fill opening, and a fuel tank side shut-off valve disposed nearer to a fuel tank than the fill opening side shut-off valve. The refueling auxiliary device has a guide pipe section and a funnel section, and pressing of the fill opening side shut-off valve and the fuel tank side shut-off valve via an end of the guide pipe section causes a valve element to be moved away from a seat portion and insertion of a nozzle into the funnel section allows refueling. The outer circumferential surface of the guide pipe section is provided with an enlarged diameter section that regulates a valve opening degree of the valve element of the fuel tank side shut-off valve.

A filling adapter for a container to be filled with media, in particular for the filling of containers on assembly lines for the production of motor vehicles where the filling adapter is equipped with a hose pack, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic lines. An electronic assembly (ID chip) for a maintenance check is integrated in the adapter head of the filling adapter, which assembly detects the number of use cycles of the filling adapter and compares said number with parameters which can be set in advance in such a way that when said parameters are approached, at least one prior warning is triggered, and when said parameters are reached, an associated controller is informed about the maintenance which is now due.

A transfer pump includes a drive module having electronic components and a fluid module not including electronic components. The drive module provides motive power to a pump of the fluid module to power pumping by the fluid module. The drive module is movably mounted to the fluid module at dynamic and static interfaces to power reciprocation of a pumping component of the fluid module by the dynamic interface and such the drive module supports the fluid module at the static interface.

A siphon priming device that may be releasably and sealingly connected with a first fluid container and usable to cause a liquid to be transferred from the first container into a second fluid container. Using the properties of the first container one may gently squeeze the container to initiate the siphon then remove the pressure and the siphon continues. The first container may comprise a liquid fuel can and the second container may comprise a fuel tank of a motorized vehicle, e.g., boat, car, ATV, cart, plane, motorcycle, etc. In use, the siphon priming device enables simple, rapid, and safe transfer of liquid fuel from a fuel can into a motorized vehicle.

A transfer pump includes a drive module having electronic components and a fluid module not including electronic components. The drive module provides motive power to a pump of the fluid module to power pumping by the fluid module. The transfer pump further includes a spout extending mounted to an outlet connector of the fluid module by an inlet end of the spout interfacing with an outlet end of the outlet connector. The spout is repositionable relative to the outlet connector while mounted to the outlet connector.

The spout can be used on a rigid or a nonrigid container. It includes a first member slidingly movable with reference to a second member so as to open and close a valve located at a front end of the spout. In use, the liquid flow can automatically be decreased and even stopped when the receptacle is full. The spout can include an annular outer gasket to create an airtight connection between the spout and the opening of the receptacle during pouring. This allows nonrigid containers to be emptied without collapsing. It also allows any airborne droplets and vapors present in the opening of the receptacle to be drawn into the container with the incoming air during pouring, thereby preventing or minimizing the presence of such droplets and vapors in the surrounding environment.

The vented pouring spout includes a main body and a valve system movable between a normally closed position and a fully opened position. The main body includes a first member and a second member. The valve system includes a valve member and two spaced-apart and parallel stems projecting from an inner side of the valve member into the first member. A push button is mounted within a housing and is in an axial force-transmitting engagement with the stems. The spout, among other things, can include a child-resistant closure (CRC) device that can be operated using a single finger, for instance the thumb or any other finger, and while holding a small container.

A filling head, which includes: A filling head housing for conveying operating fluid in a supply sense from a supply-intake region, which is configured for introducing operating fluid into the filling head, to an outlet port, A venting structure which allows the conveying of gas in a venting sense which is opposite to the supply sense,
Where the supply-intake region exhibits a hollow plug-in connector extending along a virtual nozzle path with a plug-in orifice through which an intake space connected fluid-mechanically with the outlet port is accessible,
Where an inner nozzle wall bordering the intake space exhibits functional formations projecting into the intake space as part of the venting structure,
Where on the external side of the plug-in connectors there is provided an active formation which is configured to interact with an internal thread of a supply device for the latter's positional stabilization at the plug-in connector. The filling head provides that the active formation reaches along the nozzle path up to a main body of the filling head housing, from which the plug-in connector projects.

An assembly for stored containment of fuel including a high-strength, impact resistant container having a hermetically sealed, fuel containing chamber and a nozzle operatively connected in fluid communication with the chamber. The nozzle includes a conduit disposed in fluid communication with the chamber and a sleeve movable relative to the conduit, between an inward retracted position and an outwardly extended position. The conduit at least partially defines a liquid flow path out of the chamber and a gaseous flow path into the chamber is disposed between the conduit and the sleeve. A seal assembly is mounted on the sleeve and movable therewith relative to the conduit to define a first opening of the liquid flow path and a subsequent opening of the gaseous flow path, both into fluid communication with and between the chamber and an exterior of the nozzle.
