The present invention is directed to containers for holding non-food items having a living hinge and a quad or multi seal structure on the lid such that the seal created by the contact of the lid with the inside of the cup or container ensures a secure, friction fit orientation to prevent spillage or leakage of the contents therein. The quad or multi directional seal is created by multiple ribs on the lid that securably fit within the base of the container and indentations oriented in the bases, or by multiple ribs on the lid that securably fit within a channel structure in the top of the base of the container, the channel structure having the indentations in order to create a secure fit.

An insulating container may include an opening, which can be sealed by a closure. The closure may have an upper portion with a handle that has a circular curvature equal to the cylindrical portion of the closure. The closure may also have a lower portion that is joined to the upper portion by an injection molded polymer element. The closure may also be in the form of flip type of closure such that the lid can be selectably opened or closed by the user by rotating a flip closure into either the opened or closed position. The closure may also be a two-part lid having a lower cap that may be configured to be removably-coupled to the container and an upper cap that may be configured to be removably-coupled to the lower cap

In a first aspect, the current invention concerns a lid assembly for a drinking container, the lid assembly comprising a lid housing having a drinking opening, a sealing assembly comprising a sealing assembly body and a sealing element which is moveable between a first closed position and a second open position, and an operating assembly for operating the sealing assembly to move the sealing element between the first and second positions. In particular, the lid assembly further comprises a mounting member onto which the sealing assembly body is pivotally mounted, about a pivot axis, and wherein the mounting member is releasably connectable to the lid housing. The invention further concerns an interior mechanism for a lid assembly, and a drinking container comprising such a lid assembly.

A recyclable or reusable assembly is described. The assembly includes a lid having a first side disposed opposite a second side that engages an opening of a container and a hole extending through a width of the lid. A corrugated flex pipe configured straw fully extendable for use of the assembly is configured to collapse on itself in a telescoping movement and has a first and a second portion. A second side of the first portion engages the hole on the first side of the lid and a second side of the second portion engages the hole on the second side of the lid. A first sealing plug is affixed to the first side of the first portion of the straw and a second sealing plug is affixed to the first side of the second portion of the straw to seal an inside of the straw.

An insulated multiple fluid container apparatus having multiple separate volumes that each can have a dedicated removably engagable lid allowing fluid consumption from each of the volumes individually, thus allowing hot and cold fluids to be carried simultaneously. Sealing and insulating as between the multiple separate container volumes is structurally accommodated in the design forming a portable and compact multiple fluid container apparatus.
