    Abstract: Aerosol spray cans are positioned one at a time at a workstation by inserting the bottom wall of each can through an appropriately sized centering ring to center the bottom wall relative to an annular seal that engages peripheral portions of the bottom wall to support the can at the workstation. The bottom wall is clamped into sealing engagement with the annular seal by using a lever operated clamping mechanism that is adjustable to accommodate all known standard sizes of aerosol spray cans. The bottom wall is punctured by using a lever operated, rack and pinion driven piercing mechanism that extends a piercing pin through the center opening of the annular seal. Contents that discharge from a pierced can are ducted into a receiving container, a lower portion of which is used to collect liquid contents for environmentally safe disposal. Gaseous contents are drawn out of the upper region of the receiving container and pass through a series of filters to remove environmentally objectionable constituents therefrom before the filtered gas is ducted to a plenum that is maintained at less than atmospheric pressure by a blower that discharges gaseous contents from the plenum for venting to the atmosphere. A flow of ambient air is drawn from the vicinity of the workstation and is ducted into the plenum for discharge so that, if gaseous emissions inadvertently emanate from the vicinity of the workstation, they are quickly entrained in the flow of ambient air and are ducted to the reduced pressure plenum for discharge.

    Abstract: A blowing device for the elimination of compactions in bulk material storage silos by using air blasts, includes a compressed air storage container, a compressed air supply duct, a compressed air outflow duct and an interposed rapid exit valve. The rapid exit valve has a conduit in which a valve closure is guided whereby the conduit turns into the compressed air supply duct forming an afflux cross-section for the valve piston over a miter cut or tube turn. The afflux cross-section is selected to be significantly greater than the outflow cross-section in the compressed air outflow duct. In this way, the flow losses, and pressure losses, otherwise customary are considerably reduced, so that extremely high flow velocities can be achieved in the compressed air outflow duct until the velocity of sound is reached. The result is a rapid impulse-like discharge of the compressed air storage container and, consequently, faultless elimination of possible compactions.

    Abstract: A covered pitcher for form-filled flexible plastic bags is provided. The flexible plastic bag is normally filled with a potable liquid such as milk, but fruit juices or wine may also be possible. The pitcher has a bottom portion of dimensions so as to substantially accommodate the flexible plastic bag when filled and sealed. The cover fits the bottom in co-operating manner. An opening is formed in the front upper corner of the cover, and the opening has a cutter head mounted therein for upward and downward movement within the opening. The cutter head is associated with a pair of curved and rockable arms which have closer faces that are curved away from each other at least in the upper portions thereof, and are mounted so as to be in close proximity to each other in the lower portions and over a substantial portion of the length of each closer face when the cutter head is moved to the lower end of the opening. A cutting edge is carried by the cutter head. When the bag is first placed in the pitcher, the cutter head is moved downwardly so as to cut off the front upper corner of the bag from which the potable liquid may then be dispensed; thereafter, when the cutter head is moved downwardly in the opening the bag is substantially sealed by the material of the bag immediately below the cut corner being captured between the closer faces.

    Abstract: A container is provided which has a meniscus shape. A convex part is received in the pale of a user's hand, and a lid is forced into a concave region to dispense material stored in the concave region. An opening which is easily opened and closed for dispensing material is made by using a dispensing aperture and a projection. When the projection is forced into the aperture, the container is closed, and when the projection is removed, the aperture is opened to allow material to be dispensed. Manipulation of the projection is simplified by the use of a lever easily engaged by a user's thumb. Dispensing is accomplished by holding the device in a user's palm so that the convex part lies across the palm and the fingers engage the lid. Normal action of the user's fingers causes the lid to be squeezed inwardly from the bottom to the top to efficiently expel the stored material. The container may be manufactured as a single unit in an unfolded condition, and it is then only necessary to place material in the concave region and to fold the lid over the concave region to complete assembly.
