ABSTRACT:
The housing is mounted on and sealed around an opening in the pouch wall. The disc-like base of the housing has a central, axially extending entrance passageway aligned with the pouch opening. A portion of the base extends radially outwardly beyond the seal and has a second axial passageway therethrough. The cover of the housing defines a filter receiving recess aligned with the entrance passageway. The recess has a connecting channel extending radially therefrom. The cover is removably mounted on the base for relative rotational movement between a first position in which the connecting channel aligns with the exit passageway, so as to permit venting of the gases from the pouch, and a second position wherein the connecting channel is out of alignment with the exit passageway, closing the vent.
