A drinking vessel may include a tumbler having an inner surface dimension, a first portion, and a second portion. The first portion may include a proximal surface having a first dimension and a first rim coupled to the proximal surface and having a second dimension, the first dimension being larger than the second dimension. The second portion may include a collar having an outer dimension substantially similar to the first dimension, an inner dimension substantially similar to the second dimension, and a second rim connected to the collar and having an outer dimension substantially similar to the second dimension and the inner surface dimension.

A cartridge (1) for controlled brewing of loose-leaf tea in a cup, comprising an infusion chamber (2) for containing loose tea leaves (3) and infusing a liquid with substances from the tea leaves to brew tea. A chamber wall (20) impervious to the liquid defines the infusion chamber. In the chamber wall is a passage (21) between the infusion chamber and an exterior (5) thereof. The passage has an open state in which the infusion chamber is in liquid communication with the exterior, to transport the substances from the infusion chamber into liquid in the exterior during brewing tea. In a close state the infusion chamber inside is closed off from liquid in the exterior to stop a concentration of the substances in the liquid in the exterior from increasing. A manual control manually controllable by a human-being allows to bring the passage from the open state into the closed state.

Disclosed herein is a lid for mounting on a cup opening defined by a brim of a cup body. The lid comprises a cover having a substantially planar portion and a recessed opening disposed on the cover; a side wall disposed around the periphery of the cover; a flange extended from the bottom edge of the side wall and forms a trench space for accommodating the brim of the cup body when the lid is mounted on the cup opening; and a breathable film disposed below the substantially planar portion and covered the recessed opening of the cover. The cover and the breathable film of the present lid are integrally formed into a single piece.

A spoutless training lid assembly of a sippy cup includes a collar and a valve. The collar is configured to couple to a vessel and has an outer wall, an inner wall, an upper portion configured to be located outside the vessel and including an upper peripheral rim and a lower portion configured to be located inside the vessel and including a lower peripheral edge. The collar includes a peripheral shelf located about the inner wall. The valve is inserted into the collar and includes a flexible gasket over-molded to a rigid baffle to form a single, separable component. The gasket extends from a plate of the baffle and terminates at an outer peripheral edge that engages with the rim of the collar. The baffle secures to the shelf and portions of a perimeter edge of the plate of the baffle abut the inner wall of the collar.

A paper lid that is mainly made of paper includes a top plate portion extending in a first direction, an inner fitting portion extending in a second direction and being continuous with the top plate portion, a peak portion extending in a third direction and being continuous with the inner fitting portion, an outer fitting portion extending in a fourth direction, facing the inner fitting portion at a distance, and being continuous with the peak portion, and a flange portion extending in a fifth direction, being continuous with the outer fitting portion, and including an end of the paper lid.

A cup sleeve is capable of engagement with a cup lid when being sleeved around a cup. The cup lid has a sleeve engaging member. The cup sleeve includes a sleeve body formed with a receiving space for receiving the cup, and including a bottom portion, a top portion that is opposite to the bottom portion, a surrounding wall that extends from the bottom portion to the top portion, and a lid engaging unit that is formed on the surrounding wall that is proximal to the top portion for interlocking with the sleeve engaging member of the cup lid. A cup assembly is also provided.

The invention relates to a lid for releasable attachment to a container for containment of fluid, the container having an opening defined by a first rim, the lid comprising a body having a second rim adapted for abutment onto the first rim, and a flange comprising a body having an outer periphery for abutment to an inner surface of the container, wherein the body of the flange is adapted to permit fluid flow through the flange to exit the container between the first and second rim. There is also provided an abutment assembly of the container being adapted to receive the second rim of the lid for selectively displacing at least one portion of the second rim of the lid to allow fluid to exit the container. In an arrangement, the abutment assembly may be of the second rim.

A lid for a container, such as a beverage cup, is provided. The lid includes a top wall for covering an opening of the container. The top wall may include an inner layer and an outer layer. The inner layer may include a first perforation line defining an openable sip hole area. The outer layer may be connected to the inner layer at the openable sip hole area. The outer layer may include a tearing off area that may be torn off and result in the opening of the first perforation line to create a sip hole in the inner layer.

A leak resistant lid assembly for a beverage container where the lid assembly has a straw or similar means for a user to drink liquid is disclosed. The lid assembly may include a base, a straw that extends through the base, a gasket, and a grommet. The base may have a primary opening that receives the straw and a secondary opening in the top of the base, where the secondary opening acts as a vent to prevent a vacuum from occurring when drinking from a straw. The grommet may have a spiral ring may help create a flow path for air from inside the beverage container to the exterior environment.

A lid for a beverage container having a first drinking opening, a second drinking opening, and a selector. The selector is configured to linearly slide between a first position in which the first drinking opening is accessible and the second drinking opening is inaccessible, and a second position in which the second drinking opening is accessible and the first drinking opening is inaccessible.
