A food storage container includes a lid with a vent hole, and a removable cover removably secured to the lid to cover the vent hole. The cover has an evacuation hole. The food storage container further includes a one-way air valve disposed between the vent hole and evacuation hole. With the cover secured to the lid, the one-way air valve inhibits air flow into the container through the vent hole while allowing air flow out of the container via the vent hole and evacuation hole. With the cover removed, the one-way air valve allows bi-directional air flow through the vent hole. An outer surface of the cover defines a smooth sealing area extending about the evacuation hole for sealing against a vacuum pump held against the cover over the evacuation hole to evacuate the container.

What is claimed is: 1. A storage container evacuation pump comprising: a handheld electric appliance comprising an electric motor operable to drive a shaft; and a pump attachment comprising: a vacuum pump housing with a sealing lip about an air inlet of the pump attachment, and a pump element disposed within the vacuum pump housing and comprising a rotor disposed within a ring and having vanes slidably disposed within slots of the rotor, wherein the pump attachment is releasably coupled to the appliance with the shaft of the appliance operably engaging the pump element, the appliance being removable from the pump attachment for powering other attachments. 2. The pump of claim 1, wherein the ring comprises graphite. 3. The pump of claim 1, further comprising a float section disposed between the pump element and the sealing lip and fluidly connected to the pump element by a suction pipe, the float section comprising: a float housing including a bar at one end for engaging a groove of the sealing lip, and defining suction slots at the end including the bar; and a float disposed within the float housing, wherein the float housing is adapted to limit the entry of liquid into the pump element. 4. The pump of claim 1, wherein the rotor further comprises graphite fibers. 5. The pump of claim 1, wherein the vanes comprise graphite. 6. The pump of claim 1, wherein the pump element comprises a vane pump. 7. The pump of claim 1, wherein the shaft of the appliance comprises a first spur-toothed gear, and wherein the first spur-toothed gear is releasably coupled to a second spur-toothed gear of the pump attachment. 8. The pump of claim 1, wherein the attachment further comprises a thermoplastic. 9. The pump of claim 8, wherein the thermoplastic is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyamide. 10. A storage container evacuation pump comprising: a handheld electric appliance comprising an electric motor operable to drive a shaft; a pump attachment comprising: a vacuum pump housing with a sealing lip about an air inlet of the pump attachment, and a pump element disposed within the vacuum pump housing; and a float section disposed between the pump element and the sealing lip and fluidly connected to the pump element by a suction pipe, the float section comprising: a float housing including a bar at one end for engaging a groove of the sealing lip, and defining suction slots at the end including the bar; and a float disposed within the float housing, wherein the float housing is adapted to limit the entry of liquid into the pump element, and the pump attachment is releasably coupled to the appliance with the shaft of the appliance operably engaging the pump element, the appliance being removable from the pump attachment for powering other attachments. 11. The pump of claim 10, wherein the pump element comprises a rotor disposed within a ring comprising graphite and having vanes slidably disposed within slots of the rotor. 12. The pump of claim 10, wherein the pump element comprises a rotor disposed within a ring, the rotor comprising graphite fibers and having vanes slidably disposed within slots of the rotor. 13. The pump of claim 10, wherein the pump element comprises a rotor disposed within a ring and having vanes comprising graphite, the vanes being slidably disposed within slots of the rotor. 14. The pump of claim 10, wherein the pump element comprises a vane pump. 15. The pump of claim 10, wherein the shaft of the appliance comprises a first spur-toothed gear, and wherein the first spur-toothed gear is releasably coupled to a second spur-toothed gear of the pump attachment. 16. The pump of claim 10, wherein the attachment further comprises a thermoplastic. 17. The pump of claim 16, wherein the thermoplastic is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyamide.
