Abstract (en)

A tiltable lid assembly includes a base (10) that is secured to a cup (6) that holds a liquid substance. The base has an opening (12) that is aligned with an opening on the cup. A cap assembly (4) is secured to the base and includes a first seal (22) for sealing the opening of the base and a second seal (24) for sealing an air vent (18) on the base. The cap assembly is tiltable along an axis, wherein in a first position, the cap assembly is in a level, non-inclined position and the first and second seals seal the opening and the air vent, respectively. In a second position, the cap assembly is inclined and the first and second seals are displaced from the opening and air vent. Releasable locking means (36, 42) secures the cap assembly in the first and second position.
