Child safety lid/cover is provided and used to close the opening of content containers including rigid containers. The cover requires a multiple step process in order to be removed and helps to prevent inadvertent or accidental openings of the container. An embodiment for flexible bags includes the cover and adds a ring member that contains the locking section that the cover/lid is secured to. The flexible bag is secured to the ring member. The disclosed lid/cover can also be incorporated into lids of larger containers, such as, without limitation, relatively large tubs and pails.

A lid with a stopper for use with a beverage container is described. The lid includes a lid body to fit into an opening of the beverage container. The lid includes a stopper to threadably engage with the lid body. A drink opening is formed between the lid body and the stopper. The stopper rotates between open and closed positions to open and close the drink opening. The stopper includes hook members. The hook members are movable relative to the stopper. The hook members releasably hold the stopper to the lid.

A container that has a paper, paperboard, or cardboard base receptacle and a plastic lid joined to the base receptacle by selectively releasable connection elements is provided. The base receptacle has a bottom wall and a lateral wall having an upper edge. The plastic lid has a lower frame resting on the upper edge and delimiting an opening for accessing an inside of the container, and an upper element configured to selectively close/open the opening. The selectively releasable connection elements are accessible only from the inside of the container.

A container for providing a waterproof interior includes a container body and a lid. The container body has an interior, an interior perimeter that defines an opening, and a top exterior surface. The lid is made up of an interior plate and an overmold of material that surrounds the interior plate. The overmold has a seal ring and an overhang for engaging the container body and forming a water tight seal therewith. The lid is removeably from the container body, but when the lid is engaged to the container body, the lid covers the opening such that the overhang is engaged to the top exterior surface and the seal ring is engaged to the interior perimeter.

A method and apparatus for reliably vacuum packing any size bottle, jars or bowl. The method being to stack progressively larger overlapping vacuum lids atop one another to fit size opening of a food storage container. The apparatus consisting of an assembly of overlapping circular vacuum lids wherein the bottom surface of each circular vacuum lid is covered with a flexible elastomeric gasket that can form an air-tight seal with either a mating overlapping circular vacuum lid or the opening of a food storage container.

A closure for a lid that has at least one opening may include an activator pivotally coupled to the lid, a cover pivotally coupled to the lid, and a connecting member pivotally coupled to the activator and the cover. The activator, the cover and the connecting member may form an over center latching mechanism. In addition, the activator may be pivotally connected to the lid about a first axis of rotation, the cover may be pivotally connected to the lid about a second axis of rotation, the connecting member may pivotally connected to the activator about a third axis of rotation, and the connecting member may be pivotally connected to the cover about a fourth axis of rotation. The distance between the first and second axes of rotation may be constant, and the distance between the third and fourth axes of rotation may change as the cover is moved.

A food storage container is provided that may be used to increase shelf life of produce stored therein. The food storage container is preferably used to contain produce that is often not refrigerated, and thus subject to increased humidity levels when stored inside a sealed container. The container preferably includes each of a container portion and a lid member and a container portion, wherein the lid member may be attached and removed to the container portion. The lid member may include upper and lower lid members that are also selectively engageable with one another. A water vapor permeable membrane layer is preferably secured between the upper and lower lid members to help control humidity levels within the container portion. In some embodiments, a gas permeable membrane layer may be present between the upper and lower lid members for controlling gas flow into and out of the container portion as well.

An example lid assembly can include a lid and a slider. The lid can include a wall defining a recess. The slider can be configured to slide in the recess and can be configured to move between a closed position where the slider covers the opening to aid in preventing spilling of contents of the container and an opened position where the slider uncovers the opening such that the contents of the container can be consumed. The slider can be configured to be removable from the lid and can be replaced back on the lid. Additionally, the slider can be configured to lock into place on the recess in both the closed position and the opened position.

Described herein are embodiments of systems and apparatuses that include a drinking vessel with a lid and locking cover. In an embodiment, the apparatus includes a container and a lid, where the lid is configured to engage an opening of a container to retain the liquid within the container. The lid may further include a cover capable of moving between a first and second position, where the contents of the container are accessible in the lid's second position but not the lid's first position. The lid may further include an adjustable lock capable of movement between at least a closed position and an open position. When the adjustable lock is in its closed position, the lid's cover is not able to move between its first and second position. When the adjustable lock is in its open position, the lid's cover is able to move between it first and second position.
