Lid assembly for a container

Abstract

The present invention relates to a lid assembly (100) for outfitting a container (102), capable of immediate cooling of liquids discharged from the container (102). The lid assembly (100) comprises a lid (202), a fluid control flow chamber (204) having a discharge opening (206) on an upper surface of the lid (202), and an air tunnel (208) passing through a connection slot (212) to the fluid control flow chamber (204). The air tunnel (208) has a first end (208-1) disposed in the fluid control flow chamber (204) and a second end (208-2) passing through the lid (202) such that the second end (208-2) is disposed outside the lid (202). The second end (208-2) of the air tunnel (208) directs external air to the first end (208-1) of the air tunnel (208). The fluid control flow chamber (204) mixes the external air directed to the first end (208-1) of the air tunnel (208) with a liquid discharged from the container (102) when suction pressure is generated in the discharge opening (206) of the fluid control flow chamber (204).
