How does constant P calorimeter maintain constant P

I wonder how the P is maintained? Is there a prison? If so, how can we able to also built one of these in our lab by ourselves>

It is not sealed (air tight) resulting in no pressure increase.

This image shows how you could build a simple constant pressure calorimeter.

I discussed this in class. Rewatch my lecture on calorimeters.
