Abstract: A transparent silicone cover and accompanying transparent silicone securing bands that safeguard a glass pharmaceutical vial from shattering or cracking as a result of handling by automated dispensing units, patients, or medical or veterinary staff while simultaneously allowing inspection and reading of an enclosed vial, its contents and all labels in their entirety, as well as scanning of barcodes in the clinical setting. The main body provides a cylindrical lumen for the vial to rest in securely while effectively protecting the vial's sidewalls and base. One side of the main body has a narrow slit from top to base which also extends inwardly partially across the base, allowing the main body to flex open, offering easy insertion and removal of a vial. The transparent silicone securing bands fit tightly over the main body to further safeguard the enclosed vial. The entire assemblage is autoclavable, hypoallergenic, microbe resistant, removable and reusable.

Abstract: The present invention provides a technique for suppressing an occurrence of weld in a pressure vessel liner. A film gate for molding a pressure vessel liner is located on a radially outer side of an outer peripheral end portion of an meshing portion in the pressure vessel liner. By disposing the film gate on the radially outer side of the meshing portion with a sufficient space between, it is possible to control the flow rate of the molten resin during molding, thereby suppressing an occurrence of weld.

Abstract: A beverage container closure or lid that is adapted for closing an open end of a beverage container. The lid is selectively couplable to the beverage container and includes a selectively openable stopper that when closed, creates a fluid-tight seal between the beverage container and the environment. The stopper may be selectively opened by a user by the user pressing a button disposed on a side of the beverage container closure. The stopper is subsequently automatically closed when the user releases the button. Thus, a user may open and close the beverage container closure using a single hand without the need to remove the beverage container closure from the beverage container.

Abstract: A gas cylinder (100) in the neck (20) of which is installed a balanced valve (26). The valve is fitted in the outlet of the cylinder and its output emerges into a recess (22) which opens to the top surface (23) of the cylinder. Thus the valve is protected from physical damage. A thread (27) in the bore enables the attachment of fittings such as a regulator or a filling device (not shown) which cooperate with the valve (26) to control passage of gas from or into the cylinder.

Abstract: A container such as a beer keg includes a container body 1 and top and bottom chimes 2, 3. The container body has a peripheral side wall 10 provided with a plurality of circumferentially-spaced projections which are formed with the container body by a simple pressing or molding operation. Each chime is formed with a peripheral skirt 23 which fits over the peripheral side wall and a co-operating inner lip which snap-engages over the circumferentially-spaced projections. In a plastics container, the contents of the container tend to press against the projections and resist any tendency to distortion in normal use and therefore increase the strength of the attachment. In the case of the top chime 2 the skirt 23 is joined to an inner hub 21 which is additionally fixed to the container neck 12 by means of a valve assembly 4 which is screwed onto the neck. A cap 6 prevents unscrewing of the valve assembly 4 and provides immediate evidence of tampering.
