Abstract: A drinking vessel including a beverage container and a closure assembly attachable to the beverage container. The beverage container has a spout defining a first drinking opening and a second drinking opening. The closure assembly includes a positioning member and a sealing member. When the positioning member is in a sealing orientation, the positioning member can extend deep enough into the first drinking opening for the sealing member to seal the first drinking opening and the second drinking opening. When the positioning member is not in the sealing orientation, the positioning member cannot extend deep enough into the first drinking opening for the sealing member to seal the first drinking opening and the second drinking opening.

Abstract: A liquid-dispensing container may include a vessel, lid body, valve assembly, selector and/or straw. The selector may be movable between a first position that allows fluid disposed within the container to be discharged through a straw, and a second position that allows fluid within the container to be discharged by inverting and/or squeezing the container. The selector may be movable into a closed position that restricts fluid from being discharged from the container. The selector may be movable into a detachment position that allows for detachment of the selector from a remainder of the container, disassembly of the valve assembly, or both.

Abstract: A lid may include first and second openings disposed within a spout. The first opening may provide a first fluid pathway to a fluid disposed in an attached container and the second opening may provide a second fluid pathway to a fluid disposed in the container. The lid may also include a spout at least partially defined by an outer wall. First and second openings may be disposed within the spout and the openings may be at least partially defined by the outer wall of the spout. A conduit, such as a straw, may be coupled to an opening. If desired, a closure may be connected to the lid and the closure may selectively close one or more of the openings.

Abstract: Some embodiments described herein are directed to a lid for beverage container having a lid body, a closure, and a seal member. The lid body has a spout defining a first drinking opening and a second drinking opening through the lid body and a latch. The closure is rotatably coupled to the lid body and configured to rotate between a closed position in which the closure covers the lid body and an open position in which the closure does not cover the lid body. The seal member is coupled to the closure and configured to seal around an outer surface of a rim of the spout when the closure is in the closed position. The latch is configured to engage with the closure to retain the closure in the closed position.

Abstract: A lid for a container including a lid body, a movable arm, a first magnet unit coupled to the movable arm, an actuator, and a second magnet unit coupled to the actuator. The actuator is movable between a first and second position. The movable arm is movable between a sealing position, in which a drinking opening of the lid body is sealed, and an open position, in which the drinking opening is not sealed. When the actuator is in the first position, at least one of a biasing force and an attractive magnetic force between the first and second magnet units hold the movable arm in the sealing position. When the actuator is moved toward the second position, a repulsive magnetic force between the first and second magnet units causes the movable arm to move toward the open position.

Abstract: A drinking vessel with selectable modes includes a lid, a straw, and a container. The lid extends over an upper opening of the container. The lid includes a lid upper portion and a lid base. The lid upper portion defines a drinking passage therethrough, the drinking passage disposed at an upper rim of the lid upper portion. The lid base defines a first fluid passage therethrough and a second fluid passage therethrough. The straw is coupled to a bottom side of the second fluid passage. The lid upper portion is rotatable through at least three positions relative to the lid base. In the first position the drinking passage does not align with either the first fluid passage or the second fluid passage. In the second position the drinking passage aligns with the first fluid passage. In the third position the drinking passage aligns with the second fluid passage.

Abstract: A container lid including a container top and a closure coupled to the container top. The container top defines a lid opening. The closure is rotatable about a closure rotation axis between a closed position in which the lid opening is closed and an open position in which the lid opening is open. The closure has a proximal end positioned at the closure rotation axis and a distal end positioned away from the axis. A push button is movably coupled to the closure and is movable between first and second push button positions. In the first push button position, the closure is retained in the closed position. In the second push button position, the closure is not retained in the closed position. The push button is positioned at the proximal end of the closure. The push button is rotatable about the closure rotation axis.

Abstract: A lid may be sized and configured to be attached to a container and the lid may include a spout and a flip-top closure. The flip-top closure may be movable between open and closed positions relative to the spout. The lid may also include a carrying member with a loop-shaped configuration. The lid may further include one or more flanges and the flanges may include one or more protrusions. The protrusions may form a pivot point about which the flip-top closure pivots between the open and closed positions. The protrusions may also allow the carrying member to pivot independently of the flip-top closure.

Abstract: A lid for a beverage container including a lid body defining a drinking passageway extending between a drinking opening at an upper rim of the lid body and a drinking passageway inlet at an interior of the lid body. The lid includes an actuator accessible from an exterior of the lid body and a sealing apparatus coupled to the actuator and located at least partially in an interior of the lid body. The actuator and the sealing apparatus can slide relative to the lid body between a sealed position and an unsealed position. In the sealed position a sealing member of the sealing apparatus contacts an interior surface of the lid body around the drinking passageway inlet to seal the drinking passageway.
