Embodiment Construction

[0049] In the following, a detailed description of exemplary embodiments is presented with reference to the accompanying drawings in order to enable an easier understanding of the solutions described herein.

[0050] The invention discloses a disposable cover which can be manufactured in one piece according to an embodiment. In another embodiment, the cover can be made of multiple parts. The cover can be made of environmentally friendly materials such as polymers such as PLA (polylactide acid or polylactide), PP (polypropylene), PS (polystyrene), PE (polyethylene), ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), etc. The lid can be made by injection molding the polymer, but vacuum forming and other methods can also be used.

[0051] According to an embodiment herein, the lid comprises an open portion at the container for the mouth, wherein the open portion together with the wall of the container forms a compartment where the beverage is ready to drink. In one embodiment the compartm...

Abstract

The invention relates to a disposable lid (100) for containers with beverages, especially hot beverages, such as coffee and tea, comprising an open part (130), wherein a compartment (145) is created,enabling a person to drink directly from the top of the container (200), and where the compartment is limited by a floor (140). One embodiment includes an integrated filter with narrow slits to hinderparticles, such as coffee grains or tea leaves to enter the mouth of the consumer of the beverage. Another embodiment comprises an arrangement to slow down the beverage flow to enter the drinking compartment, and optionally including a cooling surface for the beverage. The lid (100) may be provided with an auxiliary lid to be attached to reduce the risk for spill to a minimum.

Background technique [0002] Disposable lids for beverage containers have been in use since the 1930s. Disposable lids are defined as low cost devices that attach on top of beverage containers. Low cost in this regard means that lids for beverage containers can be installed without any significant cost to the seller or buyer for common beverages such as coffee, tea, soda, water, etc. . Containers are usually paper cups, styrofoam cups, or other cups and mugs. [0003] The primary function of disposable lids for beverage containers is to prevent inadvertent spillage of beverages. The first lid is simply a lid without an opening, which means that the lid must be removed before drinking the contents of the container, a process that may cause spills, especially if the environment is not stationary, such as ...
