"открыть предохранительный клапан", дать выход чувствам, страстям; ≈ разрядить атмосферуTake it easy, Max! You don't have to play the old Ivy-Leaguer with me! Turn on the safety valve. Blow off some steam! There's a long road to travel yet and we don't want you cracking up on us. (M. West, ‘The Ambassador’, ch. X) — Полегче, Макс, полегче!

Впереди еще долгий путь, и мы вовсе не желаем, чтобы вы вдруг развалились на части.
The appearance of the butler with the cocktails opened a safety valve, for conversation was becoming strained. (DEI) — Страсти разгорелись, но появление дворецкого с коктейлями охладило спорщиков.
