Abstract: A venting container prevents the incursion of contaminants and water during the breathing of the contents and has a central body received in a collar in the top wall of the container and adapted to accommodate a filter element. The central body is secured to a cover which is provided with break-away means signalling improper opening of the container and with a protective cap turned toward the interior thereof.

Abstract: A transport and storage container has an annular and erect outer wall constituted as a grid of welded-together vertical and horizontal bars and having a lower edge provided with a lower-edge bar and an upper edge provided with an upper-edge bar, a normally horizontal and generally rectangular sheet-metal floor plate having an inwardly open C-section outer rim engaged over the lower-edge bar, and a flexible inner vessel enclosed by the outer wall and resting on the floor plate. The floor plate has four sides including two opposite sides formed with the C-section outer rim. In addition another of the sides is also formed with the C-section rim and a fourth side is free of the C-section rim and the fourth side of the floor plate is formed with outwardly projecting tabs that engage over the lower-edge bar.
