Vapor-tight container
Disclosed is a vapor-tight container comprising a container body having a first extension formed to extend outwards along a rim of a sidewall thereof and a locking protrusion bent downwards from an end of the first extension, and a container lid configured to cover an upper portion of the container body so that the inside of the container body is sealed.
1. A vapor tight container comprising: a container body having a first extension formed to extend outwards along a rim of a sidewall thereof and a locking protrusion bent downwards from an end of the first extension; and
a container lid configured to cover an upper portion of the container body so that the inside of the container body is sealed,
wherein the container lid comprises:
a second extension formed to extend from a rim of the container lid forming an accommodation portion above a horizontal portion of the first extension so that a vapor generated in the container body is accommodated therein, the second extension being in contact with an upper end surface of the first extension when said container lid seals said container body; and
a coupling unit formed at a lower portion of the second extension, said coupling unit surrounding the locking protrusion formed at the container body to secure the lid to the container body;
wherein a discharge hole is formed in the container lid, wherein a check valve is further provided to open or close the discharge hole,
wherein the container lid is made of a flexible material and further includes a handle formed to extend outwards at one side of the container lid,
wherein a fitting groove is formed in the handle so that the check valve may be inserted therein,
wherein the check valve includes a coupling portion configured to fit into the discharge hole, an opening plate formed at an upper portion of the coupling portion configured to contact an upper surface of the discharge hole to seal the discharge hole, and a fitting protrusion formed at an upper portion of the opening plate, said fitting protrusion dimensioned to fit within the fitting groove formed at the handle.
2. The vapor-tight container of claim 1 ,
wherein the check valve includes a valve body inserted into the discharge hole to close the discharge hole and having a valve space formed therein, a valve component movably accommodated in the valve space, and an elastic member accommodated in the valve space to apply an elastic force to the valve component,
wherein the valve body has an inside path for connecting the valve space and an inner space of the container body, and an outside path for connecting the valve space and the outside of the container lid, and
wherein the elastic member provides the elastic force against the valve component to close the inside path.
3. The vapor-tight container of claim 1 ,
wherein the check valve includes a valve body inserted into the discharge hole to close the discharge hole and having a valve space formed therein with open upper and lower ends, and a valve cover movably inserted into the open upper end of the valve body.
4. A vapor-tight container comprising:
a container body having a first extension formed to extend outwards along a rim of a sidewall thereof and a coupling groove formed at an end of the first extension and having an open upper portion; and
a container lid configured to cover an upper portion of the container body so that the inside of the container body is sealed,
wherein the container lid comprises:
a second extension formed to extend from a rim of the container lid forming an accommodation portion above a horizontal portion of the first extension so that a vapor generated in the container body is accommodated therein, the second extension being in contact with an upper end surface of the first extension when the container lid seals the container body; and
a coupling protrusion located at an end of the second extension and detachably inserted into the coupling groove,
wherein a discharge hole is formed in the container lid,
wherein a check valve is further provided to open or close the discharge hole,
wherein the container lid is made of a flexible material and further includes a handle formed to extend outwards at one side of the container lid,
wherein a fitting groove is formed in the handle so that the check valve may be inserted therein,
wherein the check valve includes a coupling portion configured to fit into the discharge hole, an opening plate formed at an upper portion of the coupling portion configured to contact an upper surface of the discharge hole to seal the discharge hole, and a fitting protrusion formed at an upper portion of the opening plate, the fitting protrusion dimensioned to fit within the fitting groove formed at the handle.
5. The vapor-tight container of claim 4 ,
wherein the check valve includes a valve body inserted into the discharge hole to close the discharge hole and having a valve space formed therein, a valve component movably accommodated in the valve space, and an elastic member accommodated in the valve space to apply an elastic force to the valve component,
wherein the valve body has an inside path for connecting the valve space and an inner space of the container body, and an outside path for connecting the valve space and the outside of the container lid, and
wherein the elastic member provides the elastic force against the valve component to close the inside path.
6. The vapor-tight container of claim 4 ,
wherein the check valve includes a valve body inserted into the discharge hole to close the discharge hole and having a valve space formed therein with open upper and lower ends, and a valve cover movably inserted into the open upper end of the valve body.
