A keyed straw assembly for a beverage container lid comprises a straw extending from a sleeve, a first straw tab and a second straw tab extending from the sleeve, wherein the first straw tab and the second straw tab are angularly offset from one another, and wherein the first straw tab and the second straw tab are configured to create a moment arm that counteracts bending moments applied to the keyed straw assembly during use, and a first straw handle and a second straw handle extending outwardly from the sleeve, wherein the first straw handle and the second straw handle are configured to facilitate manual rotation of the keyed straw assembly during installation and removal from a connection port of the beverage container lid, and wherein the dual-tab configuration provides resistance to rocking of the keyed straw assembly when subjected to lateral forces.

The invention relates to a beverage container ( 1 ) comprising a housing ( 4 ) provided with an inner chamber ( 2 ) and an opening ( 3 ), and a holding device ( 5 ), characterised in that the holding device ( 5 ) comprises at least one holding magnet ( 6 ) mounted on the housing ( 4 ) and/or a holding element ( 7 ) for a chip card or similar is mounted on the housing ( 4 ).

Disclosed are portable drinkware, beverage containers, and beverage systems featuring a lid structure and a straw assembly. The portable drinkware may be configured to be leak-resistant, insulated, and hygienic. The lid structure may include mechanisms for improved spill prevention, sanitary operation, and secure attachment of a straw assembly that is configured for easy installation and removal. A range of materials and connection features may be provided depending on the particular type of beverage container.

Aspects disclosed herein generally relate to beverage systems. Particularly, beverage systems comprising a sleeve or boot to provide stability, protection, and/or insulation to the beverage container. The sleeve or boot in accordance with aspects herein is comprised of an elastically resilient material. The beverage container of the beverage system in accordance with aspects herein is configured to accommodate the sleeve or boot such that when the sleeve or boot is installed, the outer surface of the beverage container smoothly transitions to the outer surface of the sleeve or boot.

Aspects disclosed herein generally relate to beverage systems. Particularly, beverage systems comprising a straw mechanism that is magnetically secured to a lid structure. The beverage systems in accordance with aspects herein have straw mechanisms that are selectively leak-proof.

Aspects described herein generally relate to beverage systems. More specifically, they pertain to beverage systems featuring a lid structure that incorporates a no-touch straw mechanism. The no-touch straw mechanism allows users to transition a spout portion of the lid structure between a dispensing state and a stored state without physically contacting the spout portion of the lid structure.

Aspects disclosed herein generally relate to beverage systems. Particularly, beverage systems comprising a straw mechanism that is removably secured to a lid structure. The beverage systems in accordance with aspects herein have features to prevent leakage.

Removable straw cover securing mechanisms, beverage containers with removable straw cover securing mechanisms, and methods of manufacturing, testing, and using the same are provided herein, among things. The removable straw cover includes a magnetic or ferromagnetic component that can be mateably engaged with a corresponding magnetic or ferromagnetic element on a lid to securely secure the removable straw cover to the lid. This magnetic interaction forms a secure yet easily detachable bond, allowing for convenient use.

A beverage system includes a lid structure and a straw mechanism removably secured to the lid structure. The straw mechanism is rotatable between open and closed positions to selectively permit or prevent dispensing of a beverage from the system.
