Disclosed herein is a food box that includes an outer box and an inner bag located within the outer box configured to preserve food contents within the inner bag by preventing air from entering into the inner bag. The cereal box further includes an opening in the inner bag and a cap configured to seal the opening. The cap is attachable and unattachable to the opening. Air is prevented from entering into the inner bag through the opening when the cap is attached. The outer box includes a perforated portion that is removable from the outer box, and when the removable portion is removed, the cap is exposed. Further included herein is a method of forming the food box.

A pouring device for pouring material from a container and method of using same are disclosed. The pouring device is movable between open and closed configurations. An embodiment provides a pouring device that includes a main body which comprises a main body portion, an attachment portion, and at least two hinges which connect to at least two movable walls extending angularly from the main body to form a conduit when the pouring device is in the open configuration. Another embodiment provides a pouring device that has a central portion rigidly connecting two walls. The attachment portion is placed within the container below an upper plane of a rim of the container. Embodiments foster a pouring solution that can be easily and quickly mounted within a container and that allows a user to close the container while the pouring device is mounted entirely within the container.

Described herein are embodiments of systems and apparatuses that include a drinking vessel with a hygienic straw. 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 drinking straw for use in extracting liquid from the container. The straw may be attached to the lid so that it can be covered, uncovered, and/or otherwise accessed without the need to physically touch the straw itself.

A cover device (2) for a drink container comprises a basic assembly (9) which is provided with a drink opening (32), and a valve arrangement (20) for blocking or unblocking a passage to the drink opening (32) from a drink container side of the cover device (2). The valve arrangement (20) comprises a valve element (26) having two portions (27, 28) which are connected to each other through an area of the valve element (26) at a position where the valve element (26) is hingably associated with the basic assembly (9), and wherein only one of the two portions (27, 28) is in direct communication with the drink opening (32) of the basic assembly (9), so that a smallest total moment of force may be realized on the one portion (28) when the valve element (26) is subjected to pressure from the drink container side of the cover device (2).

A lid with a retractable straw for a cup or other fluid container is provided. The device includes a body including a cavity that extends from a bottom surface of the body to an upper surface of the body and a lid positionable between a closed position in which the lid lays on an upper surface of the body and an open position in which the lid is displaced from the upper surface of the body. The device also includes a tube, a straw and a mouthpiece. The mouthpiece coupled to the body and in fluid communication with the tube, the mouthpiece being positionable between a closed position in which the mouthpiece crimps the tube to the bottom surface of the body and an open position in which the tube couples the mouthpiece in fluid communication with the straw.

The present invention provides a lid connected to a container, comprising a lid body adapted to be removably attached to the opening of the container, a spout unit comprising a spout and a passage in fluid communication with the spout and with the opening of the container, and a cover member pivotably mounted on the lid body and pivotal between a locked position wherein the cover member acts on the spout unit, thereby causing twistable turning of the passage of the spout unit to prevent a fluid contained in the container from being dispensed through the opening of the container, and an unlocked position wherein the action on the spout unit is released, thereby allowing untwisting of the twisted passage to resume the fluid communication of the passage with the spout and the opening of the container. The invention also provides a container assembly comprising the lid.

Disclosed is an environmentally-friendly, anti-contamination suction-nozzle beverage cup cover, comprising a cover body (1), with the lower part of the cover body (1) being connected to a beverage cup (2), the top of the cover body (1) being formed with a suction nozzle mounting chamber (4), a tube insertion hole (5) being formed in the suction nozzle mounting chamber (4), and a suction nozzle (7) being disposed in the tube insertion hole (5), characterized in that a swing sleeve (8) is provided outside the suction nozzle (7) made of silicone, swing holes (9) are formed in both sides of the mounting chamber (4), the swing sleeve (8) is formed with a swing pin (10) fitted into the swing holes (9), a connecting ear (11) is formed at one side of the cover body (1), a clamp (12) and a safety catch (13) are disposed on the connecting ear (11), the clamp (12) and the safety catch (13) are fixed with the connecting ear (11) via a small shaft (14), a return ejector spring (15) is disposed in the clamp (12), a shield (17) is disposed on the cover body (1), the inner wall of the shield (17) is in contact with the head of the suction nozzle, the head (20) of the shield (17) is formed with a clamp rib (18), and the clamp rib (18) matches the clamp (12). Bacterial contamination can be avoided when the cup cover is opened and closed.

A portable water purifier according to the present invention includes: a container that is open at least at the top and has a predetermined internal volume; a cap that is coupled to the top of the container to seal the container and has an exit for selectively communicating with the container; a pump that is embedded in a side of the container and supplies air in a predetermined direction into the container; and a filter assembly that is coupled to the bottom of the cap and inserted in the container to filter water. According to the present invention, it is possible to simply supply purified water using pressure from the pump embedded in a side of the container to supply air into the container in a predetermined direction.
