A cup lid may comprise a main body having a cup edge at an outer periphery thereof. An upper surface of the main body has a cover comprising a concave upper surface, and a first end and a second end are respectively formed at two opposed edges of the concave upper surface at corresponding positions. A concave sip portion formed adjacent to the first end, and a plane surface is formed at a bottom portion of the sip portion. A flippable sealing member extends from the plane surface, and a sip-through opening is formed overlapped with the sealing member. A month-contact portion is formed adjacent to the first end, and a height difference formed between the month-contact portion and the sip-through opening is configured to prevent the overflow of beverage when drinking.

A self-contained unit that stores, or contains, one or more ingredients required for a mixed drink. The self-contained unit allows for storing fluids and has multiple parts for storing individual components or ingredients associated with a mixed drink, which, when mixed together, provide a predetermined, blended liquid beverage. The self-contained unit comprises at least three components which can be packaged as a single, individual unit. The self-contained unit includes an upper portion, an intermediate portion, and a lower portion. The self-contained unit is configured to 1) contain all necessary ingredients to provide a mixed drink, 2) provide an easy to handle, all-in-one transportation mechanism, and 3) provide a device to allow a user to store and drink the mixed drink therefrom.

A magnetic device includes a cup body, a tea strainer and a cup lid, the cup lid is provided with a separation mechanism for tea strainer including a stressed block and a separation magnet, which is mounted on the stressed block, the stressed block under stress changes the relative position between the separation magnet and the cup lid, the tea strainer is provided with a magnetically attractive metal block and is attracted to the center of the bottom of the cup lid by attraction force between the separation magnet and the magnetically attractive metal block, the separation magnet moves away from the magnetically attractive metal block, such that the attraction force between them is decreased, when it is less than the gravity of the tea strainer, the tea strainer falls down to the bottom of the cup body under gravity.

A drinking vessel with a lid containing circumferential drinking openings. In one embodiment, the drinking vessel includes a bowl and a lid, wherein the bowl is connected to the lid and wherein the drinking vessel includes a plurality of rotational orientations, and wherein the lid includes a plurality of drinking openings such that a user may drink from the drinking vessel substantially irrespective of its rotational orientation.

A magnetic device includes a cup body, a tea strainer and a cup lid, the cup lid is provided with a separation mechanism for tea strainer including a stressed block and a separation magnet, which is mounted on the stressed block, the stressed block under stress changes the relative position between the separation magnet and the cup lid, the tea strainer is provided with a magnetically attractive metal block and is attracted to the center of the bottom of the cup lid by attraction force between the separation magnet and the magnetically attractive metal block, the separation magnet moves away from the magnetically attractive metal block, such that the attraction force between them is decreased, when it is less than the gravity of the tea strainer, the tea strainer falls down to the bottom of the cup body under gravity.

This invention relates to anti-spill disposable and reusable drink-through lids for hot and cold disposable and reusable beverage cups. The present invention is directed to drink-through lids which may be placed over and attached to disposable and reusable beverage cups and which provides a drink-through opening near the perimeter of the lid's top surface for easy drinking. The drink-though lid can accommodate a consumer's lips or a beverage disposable or reusable straw. When used with a straw, the lid and straw combination creates a spill-proof seal.

A lid for a drinking cup enables drinking while inhibiting splashing and spilling. The lid features a drinking spout having an outer wall, an inner wall and a top wall. A dispensing well formed in the spout includes a bottom wall, two end walls, and at least two opposed sidewall openings. Nearly all vertical beverage splashes impinge upon the underside of the bottom wall, while the opposed openings allow splashes entering the dispensing well to be drained through the opposite opening. A plurality of vent holes can be provided to allow air to enter the cup as beverage is consumed. Vent holes near the dispensing well can be blocked during drinking, when the cup is full and the beverage is hot, but unblocked as the beverage cools and is consumed. Interior baffle walls around the dispensing well can inhibit swirling or laterally-splashing beverage from entering the dispensing well.

A concave lid including a depression, such as a notch compatible with a user's finger or thumb to apply pressure on the concave lid toward a glass. The depression may include anti-slip ridges to keep the user's fingertip from slipping when pressure is applied by the user. The concave lid has a portion for indicia that is readable from the outer surface of the concave lid. The concave lid may include a textured portion on its lower surface, such as a band of texture, to create friction and prevent the concave lid from slipping with respect to the glass. The concave lids are preferably stackable and made of clear plastic or glass.

A vibrational cup device is disclosed that prevents a drink from spilling as ice readjusts within. The vibrational cup device comprises a base component positioned on a bottom portion of a cup and sealed with O-rings. The base component is removable and comprises a rechargeable battery, a micro circuit board, a vibrational motor, a USB port with plug, and a motion sensor that tells the device when the cup is at a 45-to-60-degree angle. At these angles, the vibrational motor would engage for approximately 10 seconds to help break up the ice in the cup or to level out the ice to prevent the sudden release of ice cubes, thus spilling part of the drink.
