A beverage container closure or lid that is adapted for closing an open end of a beverage container. The lid is selectively couplable to the beverage container and includes a selectively openable stopper that when closed, creates a fluid-tight seal between the beverage container and the environment. The stopper may be selectively opened by a user by the user pressing a button disposed on a side of the beverage container closure. The stopper is subsequently automatically closed when the user releases the button. Thus, a user may open and close the beverage container closure using a single hand without the need to remove the beverage container closure from the beverage container.

A lid assembly for a beverage container having a lid housing, a seal assembly and a trigger member. The seal assembly has a drink seal to close the drink aperture. The seal assembly is rotatedly connected to the lid housing and movable between a use position and a cleaning position to allow the drink aperture to be open for cleaning. The trigger member is connected to the lid housing and is capable of engaging the seal assembly in the use position, but it cannot engage the seal assembly in the cleaning position. Additionally, a trigger lock is connected to the lid housing to prevent engagement of the seal assembly by the trigger member when the trigger lock is locked. The trigger lock may also contain a visual indicator to indicate that the lock is in the locked position.

A convenient lid includes a housing, a lid opening, a press plate, a button, an insertion plate, a guide plate and a threaded body, the lid opening and the threaded body are provided on the lower part of the housing, the side of the lid is provided with a first concave cavity, a fixing body and a guide column are provided in the first concave cavity, a switch device and a security device are provided on the fixing body and the guide column, a guide plate, an insertion plate and a press plate are provided inside the lid, a concave ring and a guide strip are provided on the outside of the lid opening, a convex ring, a guide slot and a latch are provided on the inner side of the threaded body, ribs and threads are provided on the outer side of the threaded body.

A drink container and plug lid for use therewith. The lid has an upper member and a lower member with a ring seal positioned therebetween and radially outwardly stretchable from an initial diameter to a larger sealing diameter in response to an actuator moving the upper and lower members together to place the ring seal in fluid-tight sealing engagement with the container body. Moving the upper and lower members apart allows the radially outward stretched ring seal to move from the sealing diameter to the initial diameter whereat it is out of fluid-tight sealing engagement with the container body.

A closure for a drinking bottle, including a securing element for releasably arranging the closure on a lid of the drinking bottle, a pretensioned pivot element which is arranged on the securing element so as to be pivotable away from said clamping element about a pivot axis, and a seal which is arranged on a pivot element that pivots out. The securing element includes a first clamping element, a second clamping element and a spring. The two clamping elements are arranged on one another so as to be linearly displaceable in one direction and the spring is arranged between the two clamping elements in the direction of displacement.

Drink containers include a liquid container and a cap assembly removably coupled to the liquid container. Cap assemblies include a switch, a trigger and seal bar. Upon actuating the trigger the seal bar slides back to form a drink outlet opening in the cap assembly. To hold the seal bar in an open state without additional external force from the user, the switch is slid from an unlocked position to a locked positon, thereby keeping the drink outlet and a vent formed in the cap assembly open in order to cool down a warm beverage in the liquid container.

Some embodiments described herein are directed to a lid for a beverage container including a lid base, a closure, and a handle. The lid base may define a drinking opening therethrough. The closure may be coupled to the lid base and movable between a closed position in which the closure covers the drinking opening and an open position in which the closure does not cover the drinking opening. The handle may be coupled to the lid base and rotatable about a handle rotation axis. When the closure is in the closed position, the closure remains in the closed position when the handle is rotated within a first handle range. In response to the handle being rotated beyond the first handle range when the closure is in the closed position, the closure automatically moves from the closed position to the open position.

The invention provides a lid assembly (1) comprising a lid housing (10) with a circumferential side wall and a drinking opening (12), a sealing assembly (20) with sealing element (21) moveable between a first and second position for closing and opening the drinking opening (12), and an operating assembly (40) to move the sealing element (21) between first and second position. The invention further concerns an interior mechanism for a lid assembly, and a drinking container comprising such a lid assembly.

The disclosure provides a container including a reseal-able closure mechanism having a rocker arm and a pull tab or actuator button.
