Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a lid for a paper cup that will not fly away in the wind and will not get in the way when in use. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0002] When using a paper cup with a lid outdoors, for drinks such as coffee or tea that require additives like milk or sugar, the lid must be removed when adding or stirring the milk or sugar. In this case, there is a risk that the lid may fall to the ground or be blown away by the wind. Picking up a dropped lid is unhygienic, but not picking it up is bad for the environment. Therefore, a lid that will not come off the paper cup is needed. [Means for solving the problem]

[0003] By fitting the ring that connects the lid to the paper cup from below, the lid and paper cup cannot be separated. [Brief explanation of the drawings]
