Last correction/comment:

空盒

The first kanji for empty/air can also be used for "atmospheric" in some cases [空中電気 atmospheric electricity; 空気酸化 atmospheric oxidation] ... so instead of "aerial", perhaps it is "atmospheric utensil/container barometer"

Hi Guy-san,

Just going to add some info here.

空盒 (Ku Gou) - Bellow, or Aneroid (non-liguid). Aneroid barometer for example.

This example were used on ships.

Cheers!
