Abstract

infuser container is disclosed comprising a container body for holding liquids and from which liquid is poured; and a removable infuser filter positioned across an interior of the container body so that liquid in a lower section beneath the infuser filter passes through the filter to dispense from the container body, wherein the filter is positioned across the container interior and retained in position against displacement thereof during pouring of liquids. Also disclosed is a container lid assembly.

Claims (13)

CLAIMS :
1. A container lid assembly comprising: a lid base having a peripheral skirt configured to fit onto a container opening of an associated container, the base having a cover portion that covers a substantial portion of the container opening, the lid base further including a pouring opening through the cover portion that is defined by a cylindrical wall extending through the lid base, and a spout opening through the cylindrical wall and through the skirt, wherein the pouring opening communicates fluid through to the spout opening; and a lid actuator pivotally mounted on the lid base and having a plug correspondingly sized to fit into the pouring opening and including a flexible seal comprising a first flexible seal and a second flexible seal provided on the periphery of the plug where the second flexible seal is provided concentrically above the first flexible seal relative to a lower free end of the plug, the first and second flexible seals resiliently flex against an internal wall of the pouring opening such that in a closed position the first flexible seal locates below the spout opening so that the plug and the first and second flexible seals block access of fluid from an interior of the container through the pouring opening and through the spout opening; and as the lid actuator is pivoted to an open position the plug and first and second flexible seals follow an arcuate path relative to a central axis of the pouring opening so that, in the open position, the first and second flexible seals bear against the cylindrical wall above the spout opening so as to, together with the plug, block an upper end of the pouring opening but allow fluid to flow through to the spout opening.
2. The container lid assembly claimed in claim 1, wherein the first flexible seal and/or the second flexible seal is an outward flexible flange that can flex to follow the contour of the cylindrical wall as the lid actuator is moved.
3. The container lid assembly claimed in any one of the preceding claims, wherein the lid actuator is configured to only pivot to the open position as far as to stop short of a top of the pouring opening thereby sealing the top of the pouring opening against spilling fluid.
4. An infuser container comprising a container body for holding liquids and from which liquid is poured and the container lid assembly as claimed in any one of the preceding claims; further comprising a removable infuser filter positioned across an interior of the container body so that liquid in a lower section beneath the infuser filter passes through the filter to dispense P004WONZ from the container body, wherein the filter is positioned across the container interior and retained in position against displacement thereof during pouring of liquids.
5. The infuser container claimed in claim 4, wherein the infuser filter comprises an open structure with opposing faces whereby solids in the liquid are restrained by a lower face of the structure.
6. The infuser container claimed in claims 4 or 5, wherein the infuser filter comprises a substantially planar structure.
7. The infuser container claimed in any one of the claims 4 to 6, wherein the infuser filter is positioned on a seat provided on an internal wall of the container body interior.
8. The infuser container claimed in any one of the claims 4 to 7, wherein the infuser filter is retained in position by a retention function.
9. The infuser container claimed in claim 8, wherein the retention function acts between the infuser filter and the container body.
10. The infuser container claimed in claim 8 or 9, wherein the retention function acts between the infuser filter and the lid assembly.
11. The infuser container claimed in claim 10, wherein the retention function comprises a stop on the underside of the lid assembly that bears against the infuser filter.
12. The infuser container claimed in any one of the claims 4 to 11, wherein the infuser filter is positioned diagonally across the container body so that one end of the filter is higher than an opposite end.
13. The infuser container claimed in claim 12, wherein the end of the infuser filter that is closest to an upper end of the container body is higher than the opposite end, which opposite lower end is aligned at a spout-side of the infuser container. P004WONZ
