Abstract: A fluid container lid is disclosed which includes an outer rim and a curved sealing collar coupled to the inner portion of the top rim and extending downwardly therefrom. The fluid container lid further includes an outwardly extending annular locking shoulder which is coupled to the bottom of the sealing collar. The annular shoulder includes an outwardly extending top surface which is coupled to an inwardly extending lower surface. A lid bottom is coupled to the inwardly extending lower surface. The sealing collar and the locking shoulder are adapted to engage the inside of the rim of a fluid container. The top rim of the lid further includes an outwardly extending tab for facilitating the removal of the lid from the container.

Abstract: A pistol grip controller having a miniature multi-position tilt switch contained within the grip handle is disclosed. The tilt switch includes separate circuit contacts disposed about the inside of a switch housing and also includes a common contact that includes one or more commonly connected contact elements. A movable contact element completes the circuit connection between one of the separate contacts and the common contact in response to the movement imparted to the switch. The movable conductive element can be a conductively plated ball, a sliding conductive element, or a conductive fluid such as mercury. The pistol grip handle further indicates an index finger actuated switch and a thumb actuated switch. The pistol grip handle is removable mounted on a resilient mounting post that is secured to a base.
