[0044] A flip cover 2 is rotatably connected to the container lid body 1 and can selectively cover the lid opening 11; the flip cover 2 rotates between a first position where the lid opening 11 is covered and a second position where the lid opening 11 is uncovered; the lid opening 11 is sealed or opened by flipping the flip cover 2.

[0045] The suction tube 3 can be selectively connected below the cap opening 11;

[0046] The sliding component 4 is movably connected to the container lid body 1 and connected to the water suction pipe 3. The sliding component 4 moves between a third position where the water suction pipe 3 is connected to the lid opening 11 and a fourth position where the water suction pipe 3 is disconnected from the lid opening 11.

[0047] The top surface of the container lid body 1 is provided with a receiving groove 13 for accommodating the flip cover 2 when rotated to the first and second positions. The receiving groove 13 needs to be set lower than the top surface of the container lid body 1 so that the receiving groove 13 can have a certain limiting effect on the flip cover 2. The edge portion 12 can be regarded as a protrusion (not a complete circle) formed around the receiving groove 13. In addition, the receiving groove 13 is also provided with an air hole 14. Correspondingly, the flip cover 2 is provided with an air hole plug 21 for sealing the air hole 14. When the flip cover 2 is rotated to the first position, the air hole plug 21 seals the air hole 14.
