Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a compartmentalized dispensing lid for a beverage container to contain and selectively dispense ingredients placed within the lid.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Many people consume dietary supplements as part of their regular exercise workout. These supplements are typically provided in powder or pill format, and are intended to be mixed with a liquid, such as water, immediately before consumption. Some of these supplements are specifically formulated to be taken before exercise, during exercise, and after exercise. This requires users to carry multiple containers, plastic bags, or the like along with liquid containers to mix such products at the proper time. Such mixing, shaking, and consumption regiments take time away from the exercise routine, and may even lead to consumption errors and a loss of the supplement benefits. Accordingly, there exists a need for a means by which powder and pill supplements can be easily stored, mixed, and consumed without the disadvantages as described above. The development of the present invention fulfills this need.

The apparatus is a system for adding powdered or pill-style additives to a liquid immediately before ingestion. The lid of a beverage container is provided with a plurality of separate compartments. Each compartment is accessed from the top to place supplement powder or a pill, which are designed to be ingested as a solution when mixed with a liquid. At the desired time, the lid is rotated by the user to drop the supplement into the liquid below, without removing the lid. The beverage container can then be shaken, creating the mixture solution, and the resultant mixture is consumed from the beverage container from a drink aperture of the lid. The liquid is then refilled as needed. This process is repeated as necessary for various phases of the exercise routine such as before, during, and after.

Prior art in this field consists of lids for beverage containers that have a compartment with a means to dispense the contents of the compartment into the beverage container via a lever-activated draw door, or otherwise require removal of the lid and manual manipulation to pour the contents of the compartment into the beverage container. Nothing within the prior art enables selective disposition of contents within a compartment of a plurality of compartments by mere rotation of the lid.

Other prior art related devices have lids with a storage compartment leading to a nozzle that selectively permits infiltration of the compartment by liquid of the beverage container to create the mixture while drinking from the nozzle. Additional prior art related devices incorporate a rotating apertured-platform assembly within the beverage container that creates isolated segments of the beverage container when apertures are not aligned, but permits fluid communication between the segments when aligned. Neither the prior art nor a combination of prior art related devices achieve the utility that the current invention achieves.

It is an object of the current invention to enable storage of a plurality of different ingredients within separate compartments of a lid portion of a beverage container, and prevent mixing of any ingredient with any liquid contained within the beverage container, unless a user operates the device to do so.

It is a further object of this invention to enable storage and transport of a plurality of different ingredients within separate compartment of a lid portion of a beverage container without disruption, contamination, or mixing of any of the ingredients contained within each compartment of the lid.

It is a further object of this invention to enable drinking from the lid portion without disruption, contamination, or mixing of any of the ingredients contained within each compartment of the lid.

It is a further object of this invention to enable drinking from the lid portion without mixing of the liquid being consumed from the beverage container with any of the ingredients contained within each compartment, unless a user operates the device to do so.

It is a further object of this invention to selectively dispense an ingredient from any one compartment into an interior space of a beverage container and create a mixture of the ingredient with liquid held in the beverage container by agitation of the mixture without further disruption, contamination, or mixing of any of the remaining ingredients contained within each compartment of the lid.

It is a further object of this invention to enable selective deposition of an ingredient from any one compartment by mere rotation of the lid in a preferred direction.

It is a further object of this invention to enable filling the beverage container and each compartment, as well as discharging the beverage container and each compartment, without the need to remove the lid; however, the lid is removable.

An added benefit of this invention is to provide a specific configuration of the lid so that translucent material of the lid may be exploited to enable a user to quickly ascertain which supplement has been consumed without the need to open the various compartments.

An additional benefit of this invention is to provide a double-shelled beverage container for added insulation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The apparatus comprises a lid having a plurality of compartments to be used with a beverage container. The compartments provide a means to store and transport ingredients that will be selectively dispensed within the interior of the container at a user's discretion. The lid has a dome pivotally affixed to a platform. Extending from the platform is an apron, which enables removably coupling the lid to a beverage container. The dome is provided with the plurality of compartments, and it rotates with respect to the platform. One (1) compartment is reserved for drinking liquid contents from the beverage container, whereas the other compartments are used to contain ingredients that will be dispensed into the liquid contents of the beverage container. A fill tube with a covering cap is disposed on each fill tube, except for the one reserved for drinking, which facilitates deposition of ingredients into each compartment. A separate cap is further provided for the compartment reserved for drinking liquids from the beverage container.

The platform is a solid planer member with a single aperture, which grants the only access into an interior of the beverage container when the platform is attached to the beverage container. An upper surface of the platform forms the lower containment surface for each compartment of the dome. As ingredients are deposed into the compartments, they are contained by the volume defined by an interior of each compartment and the upper surface of the platform. As the dome is rotated, each compartment rotates and any deposed ingredients are carried along with the compartment containing it. As a compartment is position over the single aperture of the platform, the ingredients are allowed to fall into the interior of the beverage container. The dome is then rotated in an opposite direction to position the drinking compartment over the single aperture. In this position, a user may drink the mixture comprising the liquid and ingredient through the drinking compartment.

The apron comprises an annular ring extending from a perimeter edge of the platform. An inside surface of the apron is provided with a fastening mechanism to facilitate removable coupling of the lid to a beverage container. The apron is further provided with a seal to enable proper and adequate containment of fluids within the beverage container by the lid.

Referring now to FIG. 1, an isometric view of the apparatus 10 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, is disclosed. The apparatus 10 comprises a compartmentalized lid 20 and a beverage container 70. The lid 20 comprises a dome 22 attached to a platform 46 (see FIG. 3) structure having an apron 56 by means of a pivot pin 50 (see FIG. 3) such that the dome 22, with the pivot pin 50 (see FIG. 3), is capable of rotating with respect to the platform 46 (see FIG. 3). The dome 22 preferably comprises a translucent thermoplastic material and formed in an injection molding process with a generally cylindrical shape and having a plurality of compartments 32-37 (see also FIG. 2) divided by separators 24. The compartments 32-37 (see also FIG. 2) have a circular sector cross-section with one (1) of the compartments 32-37 (see also FIG. 2) being designated as the drinking compartment 37; through which the contained liquid must pass in order to be consumed. The dome 22 is flat on the lower face and the compartments 32-37 (see also FIG. 2) are open at the bottom end. Disposed in the bottom of the separators 24 and the peripheral wall are seal ring grooves 26, which are formed, or cut, around the periphery of each compartment 32-37 as seen in FIG. 3. A seal ring 28 (see FIG. 3) preferably comprises a rubber, or nitrile, material, having the general shape of the circular sector seal ring grooves 26 (see FIG. 3) would be placed in each seal ring groove 26 (see FIG. 3) to make a liquid-tight seal around each compartment 32-37 (see also FIG. 2) between the dome 22 and the platform 46 (see FIG. 3).

Disposed in the center of the bottom of the dome 22 is a circular channel into which the pivot pin 50 (see FIG. 3) is pressed, or otherwise secured. The dome 22 is preferably convex on the upper face and disposed on that upper face are a plurality of tubular fill tubes 38, which junction with the ordinal (first, second, third, etc.) compartments 32-36 (see also FIG. 2) for the deposition of various ingredients. A mouth aperture 42 (see FIG. 3) is disposed above, and junctions with the drinking compartment 37. The mouth aperture 42 (see FIG. 3) would preferably have a shape such as a figure eight (8) or an oval to be different from the round fill tubes 38 so that said mouth aperture 42 (see FIG. 3) would be more easily discernable. A plurality of caps 39, preferably comprising disks of a thermoplastic material with raised annular sealing grooves, would be used to close and seal each fill tube 38. A cover 44, preferably comprises a thermoplastic material having the general shape of the cross-section of the mouth aperture 42 (see FIG. 3) with a raised peripheral sealing groove, would be used to close and seal said mouth aperture 42 (see FIG. 3). In certain embodiments, the caps 39, or the cover 44, or both, may be provided with hinges to attach said caps 39 and/or cover 44 to either the dome 22 or to the fill tubes 38 and/or mouth aperture 42 (see FIG. 3) without limiting the scope of the apparatus 10. The upper surface of the dome 22 may alternately be planar, or otherwise shaped, without limiting the scope of the apparatus 10.

The platform 46 (see FIG. 3) with the conjoined apron 56 preferably comprises a thermoplastic material formed in an injection molding process with a planar top surface. The top surface of the platform 46 (see FIG. 3) must be flat and smooth so as seal against the dome 22 with the provided seal rings 28 (see FIG. 3). The internal features of the platform 46 (see FIG. 3) and apron 56 are more clearly illustrated in FIG. 3. Disposed in the platform 46 (see FIG. 3) is a platform aperture 48 having a circular sector shape and normally being in alignment with the drinking compartment 37 of the dome 22. Also disposed in the center of the platform 46 (see FIG. 3) is an aperture (not shown) for insertion of the pivot pin 50 (see FIG. 3), which is intended to secure said platform 46 (see FIG. 3) to the dome 22. It may be advantageous to place a spring washer around the shank of the pivot pin 50 (see FIG. 3) and between the head of said pivot pin 50 (see FIG. 3) and the lower face of the platform 46 (see FIG. 3) in order to enhance the relative motion, and improve the mutual seal, between the dome 22 and said platform 46 (see FIG. 3); however, it is understood that any such eventualities do not modify the scope or intent of the present apparatus 10 and this preferred embodiment does not preclude any other embodiment. The apron 56 comprises an annular ring formed subjacent to the planar platform 46 (see FIG. 3) and is provided with a formed, or cut, internal thread 58 (see FIG. 3), or plurality of thread segments, to secure the lid 20 to the container 70.
