Abstract: A removable closure assembly has a cap making a liquid-tight seal with a tri-clamp assembly to the open end of a filter assembly body. The closure assembly has a filter which fits within the filter body. To aid in separating the closure assembly from the body, the cap has an outwardly extending shaft fixed thereto. The shaft is terminated by a radially protruding stop block. A handle is slidable on the shaft and functions as a slide hammer weight with an end wall facing the cap through which the shaft extends. The handle is movable to strike the shaft stop block and apply a force to the stop block and shaft for separating the cap from the body. The stop block has axial channels allowing a clean out of place system to exchange cleaning fluid with an interior volume of the handle.

The aft end coupling joint includes a slot that allows the aft end to linearly translate in relation to the second portion of the primary structure.

Abstract: A child resistant lid features first and second lid components for covering respective fractions of a container opening. One or more latch arrangements releasably latch the components together in a closed state over the container opening, and each feature a latch hole defined in one of the components, and a latch tongue affixed to the other component. The tongue is sized and oriented to reach a position neighbouring the latch hole when said first and second lid components are mated together in the closed state. A catch button disposed on the latch tongue juts from a side thereof at a position that aligns with the latch hole in the closed state of the lid. The tongue is resiliently flexible in a bending direction, and resiliently biased into a default position that biases the catch button into the latch hole when the lid components are mated together.

Abstract: A container assembly includes a container and a lid. The container has a sidewall, a bottom and a flange. The sidewall includes a child-resistant release tab that moves towards the sidewall. The release tab forms an opening therein. The flange includes ramp projections. The lid includes a top portion and opposing retention sidewalls. The retention sidewalls include a stop projection. An interior surface of the polymeric slidable lid includes a sealing liner. The stop projection and the release tab assist in preventing or inhibiting movement of the container assembly from a closed to an open position. After the release tab is moved towards the sidewall, the lid can slide from a closed to an open position. The lid contacts the ramp projections resulting in further movement of the lid into a different axial plane spaced above the flange.

Abstract: A substrate container with enhanced flow field therein includes a box, at least one offset inflation mechanism and at least one gas diffusion mechanism. The offset inflation mechanism is disposed outside internal receiving space of the box. The offset inflation mechanism has a gaseous chamber extending in the same direction as a bottom panel. The gas diffusion mechanism includes a base, a partition wall and at least one diffusion member. The base masks an outlet of the gaseous chamber to form an auxiliary gaseous chamber. The partition wall extends perpendicularly to the bottom panel to form a vertical first gas channel in communication with the auxiliary gaseous chamber. The diffusion member and the partition wall together define a second gas channel. The partition wall has at least one gap whereby the first gas channel and the second gas channel are in communication with each other.

Abstract: A sealing cover for covering an opening of a barrel body includes an outer cover body, an inner cover body, an airtight ring and an operating member. The outer cover body includes two pivot connecting portions. The airtight ring is sleeved on an outer peripheral surface of the inner cover body. The operating member is pivotally connected to the pivot connecting portions and the inner cover body. The operating member is operable to pivot so as to drive movement of the inner cover body between a sealed position and an unsealed position. When at the sealed position, the airtight ring is deformed and airtightly pressed between the barrel body and the outer cover body. When at the unsealed position, the airtight ring restores to its original shape and is configured not to be pressed between the barrel body and the outer cover body.

The tank made of resin is provided with a tubular projection projecting to an inside and an outside of a wall surface of a tank body that has a barrier layer, and an end edge part of the barrier layer is molded integrally with an outer peripheral resin part of the tubular projection.

Abstract: A plate-shaped structure designed for covering a reservoir, the plate-shaped structure having a generally flat surface and a flange at the periphery of the generally flat upper surface. The flange has a plurality of openings designed to receive a protrusion on an exterior sidewall of the reservoir, thereby covering the reservoir.

Abstract: A volatile liquid storage container has combustion resistance properties from a flexible sock or tube constructed of fire resistant fibers coupled to a neck of the storage container to prevent flame flash-back into the storage container. The storage container defines an enclosed volume having an orifice in the container material leading to a neck for pouring and filling the enclosed volume for exchanging the contents therein. The tube is elongated and surrounds a circumference of the orifice for engaging any ignition source entering through the orifice. The flexible nature of the tube or sock allows it to extend to an opposed interior surface of the enclosed volume, and ensures that the tube or sock is immersed in the fluid for encircling any ignition path to the volatile liquid without interfering with an ability to pour or refill the container.

Abstract: A package includes a base, a lid, and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism includes an arm and a flexible member. The arm extends from the lid and has a first engaging structure. The member includes a flexible rib connected to a base floor, and a second engaging structure and a contact structure on a rib outer surface. The member flexes in response to a first force applied in a first direction to the contact structure and relaxes in response to absence of the first force. The member engages the first and second engaging structures based on the member being relaxed while the lid is closed. The member disengages the first and second engaging structures based on the member being flexed while the lid is closed. The lid may be opened based on applying a second force to the lid in a second direction while the member is flexed.
