Fluid container ship cap

摘要

A fluid container ship cap seals a plurality of fluid interconnects of a fluid container during one or both of shipping and storage. The fluid container ship cap includes an elastomeric seal having a plurality of fluidic sealing members to seal a corresponding plurality of fluid interconnects. The fluid container ship cap further includes a rigid shell to rotate the fluid container ship cap about an axis of rotation at a fulcrum provided by a first fluidic sealing member of the plurality of fluidic sealing members. The elastomeric seal is affixed to the rigid shell.

1. A fluid container ship cap comprising:
an elastomeric seal comprising a plurality of fluidic sealing members to seal a corresponding plurality of fluid interconnects of a fluid container; and a rigid shell comprising a handle, under the action of an external torque, to rotate the fluid container ship cap about a rotational axis at a fulcrum provided by a first fluidic sealing member of the plurality of fluidic sealing members, the elastomeric seal being affixed to the rigid shell, wherein the handle extends radially from the rigid shell at the fulcrum in a plane substantially parallel to the plane of rotation, wherein at least one second fluidic sealing member of the plurality of fluidic sealing members is located laterally away from the fulcrum to deform and tear during rotation of the fluid container ship cap so as to disengage the fluidic sealing members from a corresponding fluid interconnect.
