Segmented portable humidity control device for an enclosed volume storage device

摘要

A device for controlling a relative humidity level in an enclosed volume storage device includes a plurality of container segments each including two side walls with internal edges joined at an interior edge of the container segment, an outer wall extending between external edges of the two side walls, a base wall extending between bottom edges of each of the two side walls and the outer wall of the container segment, and a permeable top wall. The container segments are configured in a first instance to be compactly adjacently positioned so that each side wall of a container segment abuts another side wall of another container segment and the segments are radially arrayed around a central axis of the device. A binding element is applied to maintain the segments in this position. The binding element is removable to allow the segments to be individually distributed within the storage device.

1. A device for controlling a humidity level within an enclosed volume storage device, comprising:
a plurality of container segments each having a plurality of walls defining an interior volume, the walls comprising two side walls with internal edges joined at an interior edge of the container segment, an outer wall extending between external edges of the two side walls, a base wall extending between bottom edges of each of the two side walls and the outer wall of the container segment, and a permeable top wall; and a cap comprising a cylindrical interior surface having one or more interior threads, wherein the container segments are compactly adjacently positioned so that each side wall of a container segment abuts another side wall of another container segment, the container segments as positioned being radially arrayed around a central axis substantially proximal to the interior edges of the container segments, and wherein each of the container segments comprises external thread segments applied to the outer walls adjacent to top end of the segments, such that the thread segments of the compactly adjacently positioned container segments are aligned at outer edges of the segments to define one or more exterior threads configured for mating with the one or more interior threads of the cap.
