Abstract: The invention is a small container for storing and discharging liquid and/or pasty materials. The container has a cylindrical tank with a cleaning portal mounted in the top-most portion thereof, and a base further comprising a discharge hopper. The base is configured with a wedge shape and is manufactured from material capable of being deep-drawn. The base is produced in one piece with the discharge hopper. The discharge hopper is shaped jointly with the base by means of a cupping procedure and is sloped at an angle of approximately 12°. An upper area of the base is molded with a first stroke of the cupping procedure and the drainage hopper, as an eccentric drainage cup, is molded with a second stroke. The container can have a stacking support assembly mounted on an upper portion of the container, and a stacking acceptance assembly mounted on a lower portion of the container.

Abstract: The invention is a safety device, and a container utilizing such a device, for release of pressure from a closed container, when the container is heated. The container has a ventilation opening, sealed by a disk which is made to melt at a critical temperature. The disk is manufactured from a plastic and has at least one recess in the area of the ventilation opening. The ventilation opening is situated at one end of a ventilation pipe, wherein the pipe is at least partially overlapped by the affixing device and detachably connected to it. The ventilation pipe has an exterior threading located at the end of the pipe overlapped by the affixing device. The detachable connection can be made by screwing the sleeve nut onto the exterior threading. The disk has a design of varied geometry embedded therein; the design creating varying surface thicknesses for the disk, which allow the disk to melt at varying rates depending upon the temperature of the interior of the container.
