A beverage container lid comprising a body having drinking hole and an air hole, and a slide-seal automatic Open and Close retention mechanism that comprises a sealing arm pivotally connected to the body, a movement and position retention linkage structured and operable to move the sealing arm between an Opened and a Closed position, a control mechanism slidingly disposed within the body and operably connected to the movement and position retention linkage such that movement of the control mechanism will control movement of the sealing arm between the Opened and Closed positions, and a biasing device structured and operable to exert constant force on the sealing arm, such that force exerted by the biasing device in combination with the structure and operation of the movement and position retention linkage will selectively retain the sealing arm in the Opened position and in the Closed position.

A lid body that is attachable to a beverage container main body is provided. The lid body includes a lid main body, a first seal portion, a second seal portion, and a plug. The lid main body is detachably fixed to a beverage container main body. The lid main body includes an inner surface and a circumferential edge portion that defines a spout for pouring a beverage. The first seal portion is formed integrally with the inner surface. The second seal portion is formed integrally with the first seal portion and formed using the same material as a material of the first seal portion, and is formed integrally with the circumferential edge portion. The plug is movable between a closing position for sealing the spout and an opening position for bringing the inside and the outside of the beverage container main body into communication with each other via the spout.

A lid is described to reduce spillage or leakage of fluids contained in a beverage container. The lid includes the actuator that opens and closes a dispensing opening of the lid and also opens and closes a valve of the lid to reduce spillage or leakage from the beverage container. As the actuator is opened, the dispensing opening is uncovered and the valve opened.

An insulating container can be configured to retain a volume of liquid, and include a canister having a first inner wall having a first end having an opening extending into an internal reservoir, and a second outer wall forming an outer shell. The opening can be sealed by a spout adapter, the spout adapter having a spout channel extending between the internal reservoir and a spout opening, smaller than the opening of the canister. The spout opening may be sealed with a cap having a magnetic top surface, and the spout adapter may be further removably coupled to a lid that may be used as a cup into which a volume of the liquid can be poured.

The opening can be sealed by a spout adapter, the spout adapter having an internal passageway extending between the internal reservoir and a spout opening, which may be smaller than the opening of the canister. The spout opening may be sealed with an upper cap that has a magnetic top surface. The upper cap may be selectively coupled to seal the spout opening, or may be magnetically coupled to a magnetic docking surface of a docking structure on the spout adapter.

In addition, spout adapter assembly with an adapter that releasably attaches to the canister and a plug that is received within the adapter that moves to place the spout adapter assembly into an open and a closed orientation. The plug may have a means to provide tactile feedback to a user that the spout adapter assembly is in an optimal pouring condition.

An optimized thermal bottle, including a first compartment and a second compartment configured for containing drinks; a cap able to close the optimized thermal bottle in correspondence with an upper portion of said optimized thermal bottle. The first compartment and the second compartment are adjacent and form a thermos.

A beverage cooling assembly for cooling a beverage without ice includes a canister for containing a beverage. The canister is comprised of a thermally conductive material such that the canister is in thermal communication with the beverage. A sleeve is provided and the sleeve is positioned around the canister. The sleeve is comprised of a thermally insulating material to inhibit thermal communication between the beverage and ambient air. A cooling unit is coupled to the sleeve and the cooling unit is in thermal communication with the canister. The cooling unit uses the Peltier effect to create a heat flux between the cooling unit and the canister. In this way the cooling unit cools the beverage in the canister without ice.
