Abstract: A closure mechanism for a wine storage container having two fluid channels provides a compressive structure to apply a compressive force to a delayed valve actuation mechanism having an actuation plate, a support plate, and a valve plate. The actuation plate may be partially rotated before beginning to open or close the fluid openings. The first fluid channel permits wine to flow from the lower portion of the storage container, through an aerator, and through a valve cap assembly. The second fluid channel permits air to flow into the valve cap assembly to the aerator, and to vent the container. The valve cap assembly includes a decorative cap with a liquid outlet port positioned 180 degrees from a vent inlet port. In a fully open orientation, the liquid outlet port is positioned over the first fluid channel, and the vent inlet port is positioned over the second fluid channel.

Abstract: In a method for configuring and managing a Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) network, a network packet is regularly captured and parameters are extracted. The parameters are submitted to a distributed learning model for matching an application according to the parameters, and a network requirement of the application is obtained. Such obtained network requirements are uploaded to a centralized network configuration (CNC) through a message transmission protocol, and a configuration of the network requirement is calculated through the CNC. The configuration calculated by the CNC is received and delivered to a TSN switch, causing the TSN switch to dynamically update the network configuration accordingly.
