The lower plate may move down relative to the upper plate when moving from the sealed position into the intermediate position. Plates are made as capable of joint displacement relative to the end of the can from the intermediate position into the fully open position and joint displacement from the fully open position into the intermediate position. The lower plate may move upwards to be engaged with the central panel from the intermediate position into the resealed position to form a seal from the radial seal and the end seal.
