Abstract
A burial capsule usable with an inert gas for replacing air in the burial capsule, the burial capsule comprising a sealable shell defining a chamber therein and a shell outer surface, the shell defining a shell inlet and a shell outlet both extending therethrough between the shell outer surface and the chamber for respectively receiving the inert gas and releasing the air contained in the chamber to allow replacement of the air by the inert gas when the inert gas flows in the chamber through the shell inlet. The burial capsule also includes a first valve handle anchor mountable to the shell and a first handle mountable the first valve handle anchor. The first valve handle anchor acts as a valve to selectively alternatively allow and prevent flow of the inert gas in the chamber through the shell inlet.
Claims16
A burial capsule usable with an inert gas for replacing air in said burial capsule, said burial capsule comprising:
- a sealable shell defining a chamber therein and a shell outer surface, said shell defining a shell inlet and a shell outlet both extending therethrough between said shell outer surface and said chamber for respectively receiving said inert gas and releasing said air contained in said chamber to allow replacement of said air by said inert gas when said inert gas flows in said chamber through said shell inlet;
- a first valve handle anchor mounted to said shell;
- and
- a first handle mounted to said first valve handle anchor;
- wherein said first valve handle anchor defines a first anchor inlet, a first anchor outlet and a first anchor passageway extending therebetween, said first valve handle anchor being configurable between a first anchor open configuration and a first anchor closed configuration, wherein, in said first anchor open configuration, said first anchor outlet is in a fluid communication relationship with said shell inlet and flow of said inert gas through said first anchor passageway from said first anchor inlet to said first anchor outlet is allowed, and, in said first anchor closed configuration, flow of said inert gas between said first anchor inlet and said shell inlet is prevented.
