Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015176128A1] A portable fuel container including a tank; a spout including a sealing surface and an internal screw thread; a cap assembly including a cap body, a plug body and a sealing element; the plug body includes an external screw thread and can mesh with the screw thread of the spout; the cap body being mounted on the plug body rotates relatively via clutch means; when a user grips and rotates the cap body in a first sense, the sealing element engages with the sealing surface with a predetermined degree of compression and further rotation causes operation of the clutch means so that the cap body rotates relatively to the plug body and predetermined degree of compression is maintained; rotation of the cap body in opposite to the first sense, can rotate cap body and plug body in unison and remove the cap assembly from the spout; and the cap assembly does not include a vent or pressure relief valve.
