  • Patent number: 12589919
    Abstract: A lid assembly for a beverage container includes an upper adapter and a lower adapter. The lid assembly may move between a closed configuration and an open configuration by rotating the upper adapter relative to the lower adapter. In some examples, the upper adapter may include a puck that is inserted into a receiver at a bottom of the upper adapter, where the puck has a tab that contacts a stop on the lower adapter to prohibit rotational movement of the upper adapter relative to the lower adapter beyond a predetermined amount to provide tactile feedback to a user that the lid assembly is in an open configuration. The puck may be secured to the upper adapter using a magnetic force between an upper adapter magnet in the upper adapter and a puck magnet in the puck.
