A kit for sealing an open container includes a utensil and a lid. The lid includes a lid body, a sealing mechanism, and at least one holding lug. The sealing mechanism is positioned on an inner face of the lid body, and is configured to sealingly engage an opening of a container to enable the lid to seal the opening of the container. The at least one holding lug extends radially outward from the lid body, and has a through hole extending along a direction perpendicular to the inner face. The through hole is configured to mount the utensil on the lid when the lid is engaged with a container.

A pulp-molded cup lid with a leakproof structure is introduced in accordance to the present invention. The leakproof structure is constructed jointly by both of an annular hook and a bulger of an annularly peaked saddle, and an upward-bent bottom of an annularly caved channel, all of which are located respectively at different standard position angles to jointly clamp an annular roll side of a cup body in a manner of making the annular roll side being tightly snapped-on, water-sealed and movement-restricted within a movement-restricting space of the annularly peaked saddle, thereby effectively preventing a fluid, stored within the cup body, from spillover, wherein the standard position angle where the bulger is located is an acute angle.

An ashtray according to the principles of the invention includes a container portion having two internal sections where the container is configured to receive a first lid. The first lid includes topical features for use as an ash tray and defines holes to allow ashes to drop into section of the container. In one embodiment, the first lid also includes a second section covered with a hinged cover. This section defines an aperture to another portion of the container which is preferable configured to store accessories. A second lid is configured to cover the first lid. When the second lid covers the first lid, the ashtray is substantially odor free.

A container provided with a sealing lid comprises a jar (11), a lid (12) for closing the jar, a rubber sealing ring (13), adapted to be interposed between an upper edge (17) of the jar (11) and a lower flange (18) of the lid (12), and a wire-shaped hooking element (14) of the lid (12) to the jar (11) for closing the container. The jar (11) is provided, in the proximity of its upper edge (17), with a collar (21) radially projecting from the jar side surface (22) so as to define below a circumferential step-like seat (23). The wire-shaped hooking element (14) is shaped with a pair of pivoting ends (20) rotatably received inside respective holes (19) in the lid (12) and with at least one curvilinear locking portion (24), in an intermediate position with respect to said pivoting ends (20).

The dish is formed by pressing a palm leaf to form a generally concave dish with a floor surrounded by sides extending to an upper edge. A rim extends laterally from this upper edge, formed as a unit with the floor and sides of the dish. A lid is provided which has a top surface with side walls extending down to a perimeter latch. This perimeter latch engages the dish, such as by snapping onto the rim. In one embodiment the perimeter latch extends downwardly from other portions of the lid and has at least one indentation which extends inwardly thereon to provide an upper recess above the indentation which is sized to receive a tip of the rim. A height of the upper recess is oversized relative to a thickness of the tip of the rim to accommodate some variation in dish thickness and some degree of dish warping.

Systems and methods for providing compostable food containers that preserve the quality of a food product for an extended duration of time, and which optionally allow for cooking of the food product therein. In some implementations, the food containers are sturdy, stackable, insulating, and require minimal or no manual labor to assemble. In some implementations, the food container includes a base and a cover which cooperate to form a closed chamber for supporting, protecting, insulating and optionally cooking a food product, such as a pizza. The base and cover may each be formed of a single layer of material including, but not limited to, molded sugarcane fiber (bagasse), molded wood fiber, molded bamboo fiber, molded paper or plastic.

Described is an edible lid comprising: a body, formed via a molding process, comprised of one or more primary ingredients, the body comprising: a top portion formed into an improved ice cream swirl shape; a base portion sized to fasten the edible lid to a container, and a hollow cavity, configured to carry a secondary ingredient, formed by an interior of the edible lid.

A flexible lid for containers provides a secure and leak-proof seal. The lid includes a top wall and a cylindrical flange forming a valve closure portion. A central plug extends from an underside of the top wall, wherein an annular channel is formed between the plug and the flange. The plug is deformable and can form a tight seal with a bottle when received within the annular channel. The flexible lid includes threads on the inner surface of the side wall for cooperating with the thread on the neck of the bottle, which is rotated to engage the threads and secure the lid to the bottle. The lid can be easily removed by unthreading from the neck and disengaging the plug to unseal the lid. In some embodiments, the plug is separable from the flange and replaced with a nipple that is inserted through an aperture in the top wall.

An airflow cooling lid for hot beverage containers enables the user to cool down the beverage in the container by blowing outside air across the surface of the beverage without removal of the lid. The airflow cooling lid includes a circular cover snuggly placed over a hot beverage container having a mounting rim, a surface portion, a sipping portal in form of an opening for consuming the beverage, an airflow opening to be used as either the intake or exhaust portal for the air drawn over the surface of the beverage, and a pinhole vent opening for allowing outside air into the container and pressure release in the event both portals are plugged. The airflow portal is angled outward to allow the exhaust air to flow away from the face when blowing through either portal.
