Abstract: A sealing lid for a straw, and a cup and a straw with a sealing lid include: a lid main body for sealing a straw opening, and an attracting element connected to the lid main body. The attracting element is configured for magnetically attracting with a cup main body or a straw main body. Therefore, users can attach the lid main body to a side wall of the cup main body or a side wall of the straw main body. When users need to seal a cup opening or the straw opening, the lid main body can be used to seal the cup opening or the straw opening to prevent liquid leakage. When users need to open the cup opening or the straw opening, the lid main body can be detached from the cup opening or the straw opening.

Abstract: A foldable container includes a foldable supporting frame, at least one operation switch arranged on the foldable supporting frame, and a container body supported on the foldable supporting frame. The operation switch is actuated through a pulling operation to move the foldable supporting frame between an unfolded mode and a folded mode. The container has an edge and an opening formed within the edge. At the unfolded mode, the opening is opened. At the folded mode, the opening is closed. The container body is automatically folded as the foldable supporting frame is moved from the unfolded mode to the folded mode. Via a folding method, the foldable supporting frame is folded to reduce an overall size for occupying less storage space when it is not in use.

Abstract: A container/box partitioning system that utilizes a pair of repositionable and removable vertical channel apparatuses that impermanently attach to opposed inner container walls. The vertical channel apparatuses impermanently attach to the top edge/wall of the container using a pressure clip with many possible embodiments (e.g. tension, spring, snap/click). A divider partition sized to fit whatever container being used is inserted into the channel apparatuses creating a partition. The vertical channel apparatuses can be repositioned/moved by lifting up/down or by sliding horizontally along the top edge of the container when the pressure clip is not being utilized. The vertical channel apparatuses feature a low profile flat panel/backplate incorporated therein which abuts to opposing wall(s) from the bottom of the file box/container to the top edge of the file box/container wall connecting to the clip mechanism. The width and design of the backplate and channel has many possible embodiments (e.g.

Abstract: A drink bottle comprises a container and a lid. The lid is removably connected to an open end of the container. A resiliently flexible drinking spout or straw assembly is mounted in the lid. An actuator for actuating a function of the drink bottle is slidably mounted to the lid for sliding movement between a home position and an actuation position. The actuator has a push face accessible from outside the lid for receiving finger pressure for displacing the actuator from the home position toward the actuation position for performing a function of the drink bottle. The actuator has a bearing surface in bearing engagement with the spout or straw assembly such that movement of the actuator from the home position towards the actuation position resiliently deforms the spout or straw assembly and by the resilient deformation the actuator is biased towards the home position.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a self-orienting handle assembly that is oriented in a predetermined direction relative to a lid when the lid is screwed onto a container. The handle assembly includes a locking structure that locks onto a counterpart locking structure of the lid as the lid is screwed onto the container. The locking structure may include at least one of a protrusion or a notch, and the counterpart locking structure may have an inverse shape. When the lid is screwed onto the container, the locking structure engages the counterpart locking structure and cause the handle assembly to rotate with the lid. When the lid is screwed onto the container, the locking structure locks onto the counterpart locking structure, and thereby prevents the handle assembly from rotating relative to the lid.
