Abstract
A filtration container lid configured to receive a force to filter a fluid in a filtration container assembly comprising a filtration container assembly attachment, a side wall, a top wall having a first concave surface, a cap-mounting portion having two second concave surfaces, and a cap.
Claims18
A filtration container lid comprising:
- a top wall, the top wall comprising a first concave surface and a bottom surface;
- a cap-mounting portion, the cap-mounting portion:
- joined to the top wall at the first concave surface;
- dividing the first concave surface of the top wall into a first side and a second side;
- comprising two or more second concave surfaces, one of the second concave surfaces joined to the first side of the top wall and another one of the second concave surfaces joined to the second side of the top wall;
- and
- coupled to a cap;
- a side wall, the side wall joined to and oriented normal to the bottom surface of the top wall;
- a filtration container assembly attachment, the filtration container assembly attachment joined to the side wall;
- and
- the cap is rotatably coupled to the cap-mounting portion, the cap-mounting portion comprising an annular threaded component, the cap having multiple mechanical states to secure to the annular threaded component, the multiple mechanical states including a sealed mechanical state and a venting mechanical state.

A filtration container lid comprising:
- a top wall, the top wall comprising:
- a first concave surface, the first concave surface having a perimeter, the perimeter tapering on a first side and a second side at a first angle from an anterior end to a first midpoint on the first side and another first midpoint on the second side, and tapering on the first side and the second side at a second angle from a first posterior end to the respective first midpoint where each respective first midpoint is positioned along the perimeter between the anterior end and the posterior;
- a bottom surface;
- a first frictional portion on the first side;
- and
- a second frictional portion on the second side;
- a cap-mounting portion, the cap-mounting portion:
- joined to the top wall at the first concave surface;
- dividing the first concave surface of the top wall into the first side and the second side;
- tapering away from the top wall at a third angle from the anterior end to a second midpoint and from a second posterior end to the second midpoint at a fourth angle;
- comprising second concave surfaces, one of the second concave surfaces joined to the first side of the top wall and another one of the second concave surfaces joined to the second side of the top wall, the second concave surfaces flowing into the first concave surface to form a concave transition surface on the first side and the second side, the concave transition surface being a continuously concave surface;
- and
- coupled to a cap;
- a side wall, the side wall joined to and oriented normal to the bottom surface of the top wall;
- and
- a filtration container assembly attachment, the filtration container assembly attachment joined to the side wall.
