Lid with cap for beverage receptacle

Abstract

Lid with cap for drink receptacles comprising at least one hole for the exit of liquid from the receptacle, at least one hole for the entrance of air into the receptacle, said air inlet incorporating a check valve allowing the entrance of air but not the exit of liquid therethrough; said valve being built into the body of the lid and having a plug element, by way of an axially sliding cap, allowing simultaneous front double closure of both holes, as well as an ergonomic swallowing of any liquid and aseptic use of the receptacle.

1 . Lid ( 100 ) with cap ( 700 ) for drinks receptacle ( 60 ) formed by a top surface ( 120 ) and a perimeter side wall ( 22 ), which can be adjusted to an opening of a receptacle ( 60 ), with at least one hole for the exit of liquid ( 170 ) from the receptacle ( 60 ) and at least one hole for the entrance of air into the receptacle ( 60 ), characterized in that it comprises:
 a valve ( 310 ) for the entrance of air (A) located in the air inlet to allow the entrance of air ( 300 ) and built into the lid ( 100 ) forming a single part, and   a cap or plug or plug element ( 700 ) to plug or close the previous holes ( 170 ,  300 ), which is axially movable on said holes ( 170 ,  300 ), allowing the simultaneous opening and closure of both holes.   
     
     
         2 . Lid according to  claim 1 , characterized in that it comprises a coaxial wall ( 130 ) that surrounds the liquid outlet ( 170 ) and a guiding element ( 110 ) of the plug element ( 700 ) with respect to which said plug element ( 700 ) moves axially. 
     
     
         3 . Lid, according to  claim 2 , characterized in that the guiding element ( 110 ) is kept coaxial or centred with respect to the liquid outlet ( 170 ) by the action of at least three ribs ( 140 ) extending from the bottom part of the top surface ( 120 ) of the lid ( 100 ) to the bottom end ( 160 ) of the guiding element ( 110 ). 
     
     
         4 . Lid according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the plug element ( 700 ) has a surface ( 730 ) that extends to cover the air inlet ( 300 ). 
     
     
         5 . Lid, according to  claim 4 , characterized in that the surface ( 730 ) of the plug element ( 700 ) that extends over the air inlet ( 300 ), comprises a bottom projection ( 720 ) intended to plug said air inlet ( 300 ). 
     
     
         6 . Lid, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the plug element ( 700 ) comprises a tubular body ( 760 ), coaxial with the liquid outlet ( 170 ) and inserted in it, the outer surface of the tubular body ( 760 ) of the plug element ( 700 ) being in contact with the inner surface ( 150 ) of the coaxial wall ( 130 ) that surrounds the liquid outlet ( 170 ). 
     
     
         7 . Lid according to  claim 1 , characterized in that said valve ( 310 ) comprises a tubular body with two ends, such that a first end is located in the air inlet ( 300 ) with its walls surrounding it, and the second end, opposite to the first end, has contacting walls closing the tubular body when at rest or when exerting external pressure on the receptacle and its walls are separated opening the tubular body when in use or when creating depression inside the receptacle. 
     
     
         8 . Lid, according to  claim 7 , characterized in that the tubular body ( 760 ) of the plug element ( 700 ) extends towards the inside of the receptacle. 
     
     
         9 . Lid according to  claim 1 , characterized in that it comprises coupling means for coupling to said receptacle ( 60 ) forming a single part. 
     
     
         10 . Lid, according to  claim 9 , characterized in that said coupling means are a threading ( 21 ) located in the perimeter wall of the lid ( 100 ) for fixing it to the receptacle ( 60 ). 
     
     
         11 . Lid, according to  claim 9 , characterized in that said coupling means are a bayonet, retention, welding, gluing or other physical or chemical anchoring system for its fixation to the receptacle. 
     
     
         12 . Lid, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the plug element ( 700 ) has a surface which slides until plugging the hole that supplies the liquid, clogging said output of liquid. 
     
     
         13 . Lid, according to  claim 6 , characterized in that between the coaxial wall ( 130 ) of the lid ( 100 ) and the tubular body ( 760 ) of the plug element ( 700 ) there are arranged restraint means. 
     
     
         14 . Lid, according to  claim 13 , characterized in that said restraint means comprise at least one fissure ( 765 ) and a projection ( 135 ) intended to be housed at said at least one fissure ( 765 ). 
     
     
         15 . Lid, according to  claim 14 , characterized in that the at least one fissure ( 765 ) is located at the outer wall of the tubular body ( 760 ) of the plug element ( 700 ) and the projection is located at the coaxial wall ( 130 ) of the lid ( 100 ).
