Abstract
A humidity control system includes a cap including a retention element at an inner surface of the cap, the inner surface of the cap defining an interior volume of the cap, and a package in the interior volume of the cap, the package including a humidity control substance configured to control humidity and a retainer including a sealing interface to enclose the humidity control substance, the retainer being configured to engage the retention element. The package and the inner surface of the cap define a shielded volume.
Claims20
A humidity control system comprising:
- a cap comprising a retention element at an inner surface of the cap, the inner surface of the cap defining an interior volume of the cap;
- and
- a package in the interior volume of the cap, the package comprising a humidity control substance configured to control humidity and a retainer comprising a sealing interface to enclose the humidity control substance, the retainer being configured to engage the retention element,
- wherein an outer upper surface of the package and the inner surface of the cap define a shielded volume,
- wherein the package is a porous material which is permeable to vapor but is impervious to liquid, dust, and other particulates such that the shielded volume receives vapor but not liquid, dust, and other particulates in response to the package and the inner surface of the cap enclosing the shielded volume, and
- wherein the retainer is bendable such that the retainer engages the retention element in response to the package being inserted into the interior volume of the cap.
A humidity control system comprising:
- a cap comprising a retention element at an inner surface of the cap, the inner surface of the cap defining a first interior volume of the cap;
- a package in the first interior volume of the cap, the package comprising a pouch and a retainer surrounding the pouch, the pouch comprising a humidity control substance configured to control humidity and the retainer being configured to engage the retention element;
- and
- a container defining a second interior volume,
- wherein an outer upper surface of the package and the inner surface of the cap define a shielded volume spaced apart from the second interior volume of the container, the shielded volume being adapted to receive contents other than the humidity control substance, and
- wherein the retainer is bendable such that the retainer engages the retention element in response to the package being inserted into the first interior volume of the cap.
A humidity control system comprising:
- a cap comprising a retention element at an inner surface of the cap, the inner surface of the cap defining an interior volume of the cap;
- and
- a package in the interior volume of the cap, the package comprising a humidity control substance configured to control humidity and a retainer comprising a sealing interface to enclose the humidity control substance, the retainer being configured to engage the retention element,
- wherein an outer upper surface of the package and the inner surface of the cap define a shielded volume, and
- wherein the retainer is bendable such that the retainer engages the retention element in response to the package being inserted into the interior volume of the cap.
