Abstract
Mechanisms and methods for pressurized fluid injection, evacuation, and venting from containment vessels, such as the housing for a battery or capacitor, using an elastomeric sealing vent mechanism are disclosed. The invention describes designs and methods in which a fluid injection port is plugged with an elastomeric sealing vent, serving as both the primary fluid sealing mechanism and the safety relief mechanism in case of over-pressurization or over-heating.
