Integrated container cover and drinking device and use of the same

Abstract

A novel integrated container cover is described to be used as a cup and a cover. There is a need to make a useful integrated container cover that can be used as a cup for consuming the contents of the container. This is specifically very useful for medication intake, or a soft drink intake. This invention is useful for travel purposes wherein one does not have to take two different objects if they have to carry water for drinking purposes. Integrated container cover comprises of a container cover that is used as a lid for the container. In between the container cover and the extended cup there is a thinner stretchable material or elongation means made up of synthetic material to form a bigger cup like structure. Once used it may be compressed or folded to fit into the extended cup and used as a cover for the container.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An integrated container cover, comprising:
 a container cover to secure the content of a container;   a stretched out cup to provide the filling structure between the container cover and an extended cup once the integrated container cover is in an open position; and   the extended cup to expand when dissociated from the container cover to hold the content of the container for consumption.   
     
     
         2 . The integrated container cover of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 the stretched out cup is made up of a synthetic material folded in a particular design and thickness to provide flexibility, wherein the particular design is at least one of a sheet, accordion folding and pleat.   
     
     
         3 . The integrated container cover of  claim 2 , wherein the synthetic material is at least one of high density polyethylene, low density poly ethylene and polypropylene. 
     
     
         4 . The integrated container cover of  claim 2 , wherein the synthetic material is at least 0.1 to 0.4 mm thick. 
     
     
         5 . The integrated container cover of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 the extended cup to house the stretched out cup in a folded position.   
     
     
         6 . The integrated container cover of  claim 1 , wherein the extended cup is larger in size than the container cover. 
     
     
         7 . A method of using an integrated container cover, comprising:
 unlocking a integrated container cover from the container;   separating a container cover and an extended cup from the integrated container cover;   expanding a stretched out cup made of a synthetic material having a specific width to form an elongated structure between the container cover and the extended cup to form the integrated container cover;   inverting the integrated container cover to pour the content of the container;   consuming the content of the integrated container cover;   reverting the integrated container cover to combine the stretched out cup and the container cover to form the integrated container cover; and   closing the container using the integrated container cover.   
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7 , further comprising:
 housing the stretched out cup in the extended cup when the integrated container is closed.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the synthetic material is high density polyethylene, low density poly ethylene and polypropylene. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the specific width is between 0.1 to 0.4 mm. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 7 , further comprising:
 reusing the integrated container cover to consume the contents of the container.   
     
     
         12 . An integrated container cover, comprising:
 a stretched out cup to provide the filling structure between a container cover and an extended cup once the integrated container cover is in an open position; wherein the stretched out cup is made up at least one of biodegradable material, synthetic material and reusable material.   
     
     
         13 . The integrated container cover as  claim 12 , wherein the synthetic material is at least one of high density polyethylene, low density poly ethylene and polypropylene. 
     
     
         14 . The integrated container cover as  claim 12 , wherein the extended cup and container cover is similar in size. 
     
     
         15 . The integrated container cover as  claim 12 , wherein the extended cup is larger than the container cover in size. 
     
     
         16 . The integrated container cover as  claim 12 , wherein stretched out cup is of specific thickness, wherein the thickness is between 0.1-0.4 mm. 
     
     
         17 . The integrated container cover as  claim 12 , wherein the extended cup and the container cover are made up of at least one of high density polyethylene, low density poly ethylene and polypropylene. 
     
     
         18 . The integrated container cover as  claim 12 , wherein the thickness of the extended cup and container cover is between 4 mm to 9 mm. 
     
     
         19 . The integrated container cover as in  claim 12 , further comprising:
 the extended cup to house the stretched out cup in a folded position.   
     
     
         20 . The integrated container cover as in  claim 12 , wherein the stretched out cup is situated in between the container cover and the extended cup.
