Abstract

According to the invention, a drinking-cup lid with at least one drinking aperture ( 34 ) and a lid edge ( 24 ) for sealing insertion into the drinking opening of a cup is characterized in that a plurality of drinking apertures are distributed uniformly over a circumference of the lid.

1 . A drinking-cup lid comprising a plurality of drinking apertures and a lid edge for sealing insertion into the drinking opening of a cup, wherein a plurality of drinking apertures are evenly distributed along a perimeter of the lid. 
     
     
         2 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 1 , wherein a plurality of drinking apertures are arranged in groups that are evenly distributed over the perimeter of the lid edge. 
     
     
         3 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 1 , wherein the drinking apertures are structurally configured as slots along a periphery of the lid. 
     
     
         4 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 1 , wherein the drinking apertures are structurally configured with a small aperture area such that only a number of them lets a conventional flow of a water-based beverage pass through. 
     
     
         5 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 1 , wherein an annular drinking surface abuts an annular top edge of the lid edge, and the drinking surface extends:
 radially to the inside on the outside of the lid,   in the peripheral direction of the lid around the lid, and   in an axial direction of the lid from the outer edge of the lid at a height between 40 mm and 5 mm.   
     
     
         6 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 1 , wherein the drinking surface narrows in the axial direction of the lid from the outside edge of the lid to the inside of the lid. 
     
     
         7 . The drinking cup lid according to  claim 6 , wherein the drinking surface has a uniformly conical shape. 
     
     
         8 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 1 , wherein a flat lid surface section and/or concave lid surface section in the direction of the inside of the lid is stretched within the lid edge. 
     
     
         9 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 1 , wherein the lid has a sealing surface which is structurally configured for sealing with the drinking opening of the cup, and the lid is structurally configured to be sealingly inserted into the drinking opening of the cup. 
     
     
         10 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 5 , wherein the drinking surface extends in an axial direction of the lid from the outer edge of the lid at a height between 20 mm and 5 mm. 
     
     
         11 . The drinking-cup lid according to  claim 1 , wherein the drinking opening of the cup is adapted to the lid edge, and the lid is structurally configured to be sealingly inserted into the drinking opening of the cup.
