  • Publication number: 20250216278
    Abstract: A pressure gauge includes a first fastener, a second fastener, a rotation member, and a positioning module. The first fastener includes a guide portion having a first spiral section and a second spiral section. The second fastener is mounted on the bottom of the first fastener. The rotation member has a shaft provided with a protruding rib and a pointer. The positioning module includes a positioning block having an air hole, and a elastic member having a first end mounted on the air hole and a second end abutting the rotation member. The air hole introduces an air pressure into the elastic member that is expanded and pushes the shaft upward so that the protruding rib and the pointer are rotated and moved upward along the first spiral section and the second spiral section, to precisely indicate visible air pressure values.

  • Patent number: 7481339
    Abstract: A hygienic dispensing package includes a container having a top panel with a dispensing aperture selectively covered by a slide closure. The closure rides within a flat channel of the top panel and is in tongue and groove engagement with parallel side walls of the channel. One of a pair of spaced sockets in the channel is engaged by a detent formed on the underside of the closure when the aperture is covered; the detent seats in the other socket when the aperture is uncovered. The detent is formed as a protrusion on an integral cantilever leaf of the closure to assure intimate sliding contact between the faces of the channel and the closure and effective sealing of the aperture.
