  • Publication number: 20160128502
    Abstract: A container lid is disclosed that accepts a snap-on container. The lid includes a continuous outer coupling trough for attachment to the open top of a beverage container where the trough circumscribes a footprint of the container lid. A straw-hole planar surface is disposed within the footprint, the straw-hole planar surface is adjacent to the outer coupling trough and a hole for drinking a liquid in the container extends through the straw-hole planar surface. A riser wall extends away from the straw-hole planar surface and defines a first planar surface above the straw-hole planar surface. A sip hole extends through the first planar surface. A food container coupling wall connects to the first planar surface and extends from the first planar surface to a position lower than the first planar surface and a food container coupling bottom connected to the food container coupling wall.

  • Publication number: 20160114947
    Abstract: A cup lid with an integrated container that can be coupled to a beverage cup has a continuous outer coupling ring which circumscribes a footprint of the lid, and a drink-hole planar surface above the coupling ring and within the lid footprint. An annular surface above the coupling ring, within and non-concentric with the lid footprint, is connected to the drink-hole planar surface. A food container has a container inner wall extending downward from the annular surface, and a bottom connected to the container inner wall and coplanar with or below the coupling ring. A drink hole for drinking a liquid in the cup extends through the drink-hole surface at a position outside of the annular surface, and a cover is removably attached to the annular surface and encloses the food container.

  • Patent number: 9260228
    Abstract: Lid with integrated container(s) that couples with the top of a cup/can. The lid and cup/can form at least two containment volumes. Embodiments enable easy containment, inclusion of fresh food, transportation and access of solids or liquids in the container and cup/can without disengagement of the lid from the cup/can. Contents of the lid container may be accessed, partially consumed, replaced in the container and resealed at any time as desired by the user. Additionally, an independent drop-in container within the lid cavity may be resealed and removed from the lid cavity and taken to other locations such as home, work, or car. Simplifies eating and drinking from one unified container and cup in a theater or stadium having seats that, for example, provide one cup holder per seat. Provides one free hand to hold a child's hand for safety while in stadiums and amusement parks.

  • Patent number: 9181009
    Abstract: A cup with an outwardly protruding straw channel and nestable food container and cover that enables simultaneous or intermittent access of the contents of the container and attached cup without disengagement of the food container from the cup, wherein a portion of the cup that holds the food container may be utilized as a fill line when filling liquids into the cup to ensure that insertion of the food container does not result in overflow of liquid from the cup. Additionally, the food container may include at least one cavity that may hold at least one independent drop-in container. A simple domed cover or variable height domed cover may keep food items that are placed within the food container warm.
