This invention relates to a method of making a double-walled thermally insulating metal container comprising an inner casing and an outer casing having an evacuation opening. A quantity of joining material is placed near or on the evacuation opening so as to cover the opening partially or completely. The assembly is treated in a vacuum furnace to evacuate the insulating space, to melt the joining material and to solidify the joining material in situ to provide vacuum sealing without resorting to a conventional sealing plate.

Method for making double-walled insulating metal container

A plug body having an inner cylindrical member with short engagement receivers and long engagement receivers together with steps, an operating button with short engaging elements and long engaging elements that are respectively received by the short engagement receivers and long engagement receivers, a rotatable slider provided with protrusions, a valve body with a valve stem which is inserted into the rotatable slider and the inner cylindrical member, a spring that preloads the rotatable slider upwards so that the long and short engaging elements of the operating button alternatively make contact with the protrusions, causing the rotatable slider to rotate with a depression of the operating button. The liquid passage is opened when the long engaging elements of the operating button make contact with the protrusions of the rotatable slider. In this case, the operating button protrudes upward above the upper lid of the liquid container. In contrast, the liquid passage is closed when the short engaging elements of the operating button make contact with the protrusions of the rotatable slider, and in this case, the operating button is hidden below the upper lid. Thus, the valve open state is more easily checked visually.
