The current invention relates to a lid for a cup which protects the contents of the cup and the drinking hole from contaminants. In some embodiments the lid for a cup includes a base and a cover connected to the base which rotates around the base. In this way the cover protects the drinking hole when closed, but can rotate open to allow the user to access the drinking hole and the contents of the cup. In some embodiments the cover is further equipped with a stopper which fits into the drinking hole and helps secure the cover in a closed position. In other embodiments the base is further equipped with a ramp leading up to the drinking hole which guides the cover to the drinking hole and locks the stopper within the hole. In other embodiments a protective layer is provided over the base which is removed before use.

A container apparatus having at least one containment member is disclosed that may include a bottom and at least one sidewall, an interior and an open end. The container may also include a flange that extends around a free end of the at least one side wall, and a plurality of wall members (or castellations) connected to/formed with/that extend from the flange. The plurality of wall members may be separated by ventilation apertures, with the plurality of wall members and the ventilation apertures extending around the perimeter of the free end. A sealing material, such as a removable film, may extend over the open end to enclose the containment member.

Containers for storing food in a storage compartment may include a base portion of the container. The storage compartment is sealed with a film to get the food stored in the storage compartment fresh. The container further includes a reversible lid that is able to attach to the base portion of the container in two different configurations. In a first configuration the reversible lid attaches to the base portion without affecting the seal created by the film. In a second configuration the reversible lid attaches to the base portion when the lid is inverted and the film is removed from the base portion.

Thermoformed locking assembly comprising a first web portion including locking lug having lug undercut defining a cantilevered lug ledge having lug engaging surface, second web portion including locking recess having recess undercut defining an opposing recess ledge having recess engaging surface and a lug stop opposite the recess undercut. Locking recess configured to receive locking lug and lug stop configured to position locking lug in locking recess with the lug engaging surface in engagement with the recess engaging surface when first web portion is moved towards second web portion.

A beverage product has a beverage container, a quantity of a beverage in the beverage container, a flexible, compressible plug sealing the beverage container, and a contiguous molded lid having a cylindrical upper portion with a top having a matrix of openings, a cavity in the upper portion below the top, the cavity open to the underside, a shoulder facing downward, and a descending skirt below the shoulder, the descending skirt separated by a plurality of vertical slots into a plurality of flexible tabs having each a lowermost, inwardly facing lip, the contiguous molded lid engaged to the beverage container by the flexible tabs.

Disclosed are assemblies of inverted cheesecake products comprising first and second stacked products, wherein each product includes a bottom protrusion configured to lock into an upwardly-opening recess of a product therebeneath, providing secure locking engagement without adversely affecting container stability or product accessibility to an unacceptable degree. A sleeve constrains the products against destacking while permitting locking of products in one assembly with those in another assembly. A topping layer may be filled at the bottom of a base cup, covered by a filling layer, and a disassembled crust may be sealed in an overcap interior to avoid moisture migration thereto prior to use.

A lid and a combination of a tub and the lid, the lid comprising a web and a circumferential skirt depending thereon; wherein the skirt comprises at least one tab, a first retention tooth and a second retention tooth, the first retention tooth being molded on an inner surface of the tab; and wherein for positioning the lid in a first closed position on the tub, the first and the second retention teeth are engaged under a top lip of the tub by applying a pressure on the lid; when first opening the tub once the lid is in the first closed position, the tab is broken free from the skirt into a position of the tab in which the tab remains pivotably attached to the skirt, and the tab is pulled, causing disengagement of the first retention tooth from under the top lip of the tub, the second retention tooth acting as a pivoting axis for the lid.

In an embodiment, the invention comprises a container apparatus with a lateral stability rail system. At least one rail extends within the lid portion and at least one track extends through the base portion. The rail terminates in a tooth and the track terminates in a pocket. When the container is in a hingedly closed position, the at least one rail nests within the at least one track and the at least one tooth nests within the at least one pocket.

The present disclosure relates generally to containers and container lids. In at least one embodiment, the disclosed containers and container lids provide a liquid-tight seal with the inclusion of a separately attached ring that generally eliminates material-trapping seams. For example, in certain embodiments, a container and a container ring for attaching to the rim of the container is disclosed. In these embodiments, the container ring attaches to the rim of the container such that a liquid-tight vertical seal is formed, thereby reducing or eliminating material-trapping seams.

Disclosed is a molded pulp cup lid made of a material which is a mixture of paper pulp and/or plant fibers. The molded pulp cup lid is manufactured by a mold with pulp suction molding and hot pressing technologies, and has a binding edge capable of covering the cup securely, an offset cup top, and a drinking opening formed on a high platform to achieve the effects of preventing a liquid contained in the cup from spilling to the outside, facilitating users to carry or move the stacked takeout paper cups, and retarding the flow of the beverage at the drinking opening.
