Abstract
Abstract A barrier pressure container apparatus for dispensing viscous materials and a method of filling such container. The apparatus includes a generally cylindrical container having concave ends with a piston located between the same and having a viscous material on one side of the piston and fluid under pressure on the opposite side thereof. A dispensing valve is mounted in the top of the container so that material is dispensed by the pressure below the piston when the valve is open.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
172 words
The method of filling a barrier pressure container with a flowable viscous product, said container having a generally cylindrical body with a wide mouth open top and a piston located adjacent to the bottom of said body, comprising the steps of: positioning said body along a generally vertical axis, introducing flowable material into said container body through the open top of said body until the material reaches a predetermined level below the open top of said container, inserting a top member having a concave wall and an annular peripheral flange into the open top of said container so that the concave wall engages the material and forces the material upwardly and outwardly to exhaust substantially all of the air above the material from the container without discharging material from the container before the peripheral flange of the top member engages the container, securing the annular flange of the top to said container, and pressurizing the space below the piston to cause the piston to apply pressure against the material within said body.
