Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments of a system and its components. The system includes a container and an ergonomic lid. The ergonomic lid includes a plurality of protrusions extending from an external surface of the ergonomic lid. The ergonomic lid also includes a closure mechanism located on an internal surface of the ergonomic lid configured to mechanically attach the ergonomic lid to the container.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An ergonomic lid, comprising:
 a plurality of protrusions extending from an external surface of the ergonomic lid; and   a closure mechanism located on an internal surface of the ergonomic lid, wherein the closure mechanism is configured to mechanically attach the ergonomic lid to a container.   
     
     
         2 . The ergonomic lid of  claim 1 , wherein the closure mechanism comprises a continuous thread. 
     
     
         3 . The ergonomic lid of  claim 1 , wherein the closure mechanism comprises a lug. 
     
     
         4 . The ergonomic lid of  claim 1 , wherein:
 each of the plurality of protrusions are uniform in size; and   each of the plurality of protrusions are spaced apart by a uniform length.   
     
     
         5 . The ergonomic lid of  claim 4 , wherein:
 the uniform length is equal to a width of each of the plurality of protrusions; and   each space between any adjacent pair of the plurality of protrusions is shaped to match a shape of each of the plurality of protrusions.   
     
     
         6 . The ergonomic lid of  claim 1 , further comprising a lip shaped to hold a base of the container. 
     
     
         7 . The ergonomic lid of  claim 1 , wherein the closure mechanism located on the internal surface of the ergonomic lid creates a hermetic seal with the container when the ergonomic lid is fastened to the container. 
     
     
         8 . An ergonomic apparatus for rotating a lid, comprising:
 a plurality of protrusions extending from an external surface of the ergonomic apparatus; and   an attachment mechanism located on an internal surface of the ergonomic apparatus, wherein the attachment mechanism comprises a grip that attaches the ergonomic apparatus to the lid with friction.   
     
     
         9 . The ergonomic apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the attachment mechanism comprises a rubber-based seal. 
     
     
         10 . The ergonomic apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the attachment mechanism comprises a silicone-based seal. 
     
     
         11 . The ergonomic apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein:
 each of the plurality of protrusions are uniform in size; and   each of the plurality of protrusions are spaced apart by a uniform length.   
     
     
         12 . The ergonomic apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein:
 the uniform length is equal to a width of each of the plurality of protrusions; and   each space between any adjacent pair of the plurality of protrusions is shaped to match a shape of each of the plurality of protrusions.   
     
     
         13 . The ergonomic apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein:
 each of the plurality of protrusions are non-uniform in size; and   each of the plurality of protrusions are spaced apart by a non-uniform length.   
     
     
         14 . The ergonomic apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the lid is affixed to a container via a threaded connection. 
     
     
         15 . A system, comprising:
 a container; and   an ergonomic lid, comprising:
 a plurality of protrusions extending from an external surface of the ergonomic lid; and 
 a closure mechanism located on an internal surface of the ergonomic lid configured to mechanically attach the ergonomic lid to the container. 
   
     
     
         16 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein the closure mechanism comprises a continuous thread. 
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein the closure mechanism comprises a lug. 
     
     
         18 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein the closure mechanism located on the internal surface of the ergonomic lid creates a hermetic seal with the container when the ergonomic lid is fastened to the container. 
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein:
 each of the plurality of protrusions are uniform in size; and   each of the plurality of protrusions are spaced apart by a uniform length.   
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein:
 the container comprises a first container;   the system further comprises a second container; and   the ergonomic lid further comprises a lip shaped to hold a base of the second container.
