- 6. The apparatus, as claimed in claim 5, wherein said outer cover has a recessed groove.
- 7. The apparatus, as claimed in claim 6, wherein contained in said recessed groove is an O-ring.
- 8. The apparatus, as claimed in claim 5, wherein at least one protrusion is operatively coupled to an outside surface of a canister.
- 9. The apparatus, as claimed in claim 5, wherein at least one protrusion is operatively coupled to an inside surface of a canister.
- 10. The apparatus, as claimed in claim 5, wherein a spring operatively couples said outer cover to said inner cover.
- 11. The apparatus, as claimed in claim 5, wherein the plurality of protrusions is operatively coupled to an inside surface of the first end of the canister.
- 12. The apparatus, as claimed in claim 5, wherein at least one protrusion is at least one ball bearing.
- 13. The apparatus, as claimed in claim 12, wherein an edge of said inner cover substantially presses against said at least one ball bearing.
