Abstract

A cup (12) or container assembly (10) having a lip (13, 15) activated input feature. The lip (13, 15) activated feature permits removal of the contents from the cup (12) or container (12) while mitigating against leaks and/or spills. The lid (12, 14) includes a movable member (48, 58) and a baffle (54, 59). The cup assembly (10) is constructed to have streamlined assembly method due to a reduced number of parts needing separation and/or improved connecting features. The improved geometry of lid (12, 14) components lends to heightened ease of cleaning. A cup (12) or container assembly (10) having a lip (13, 15) activated input feature.
