The coveralso has a tabextending outward from a portion of the cover. The rotatable elementhas at least one apertureand an actuatorthat is accessible through the slot. The elementis moveable by manipulation of the actuatorbetween a first position wherein the apertureis misaligned with the opening, and a second position wherein the apertureis aligned with the opening. The coverhas at least one support memberextending radially inward from an inner surfaceof the cover, wherein the support memberrotatably supports the element

Reclosable container lid

A reclosable lidfor a container holding a flowable substance has a first piece or cover, and a movable second piece or disk. The coverhas a top wall, a side walland a mounting portionfor connecting the lidon the container. The coverhas an openingadapted to permit the flow of the substance through the lid. The coverfurther includes a slotlocated in the top wall. The diskhas at least one aperture, a post, and a projection. The apertureand the projectionare each cooperatively dimensioned with the opening. The postis adapted to be received by the slotin the cover. The diskis movable between a first position wherein at least a portion of the projectionis received in the openingin the first position, and a second position wherein the apertureis aligned with the openingin the second position. A support ledgeand a support edgeon an inner surfaceof the coverare adapted to provide rotatable support to the disk

A lid for a container holding a flowable substance has an annular top wall. A side wall depends from the top wall, and has a mounting portion for connecting the lid on the container. The top wall has an opening that is adapted to permit the flow of the substance through the lid. The top wall also has a retaining member. The lid further has a closure member positioned on the mounting portion. The closure member is movable between a first position and a second position, wherein at least a portion of the closure member is received in the opening in the first position and at least a portion of the closure member is received in the retaining member in the second position. The opening and the closure member are cooperatively dimensioned such that the closure member is removably inserted in the opening. The retaining member and the closure member are cooperatively dimensioned such that the closure member is removably inserted in the retaining member. The closure member has a flexible connector arm which facilitates movement of the closure member between the first and second positions.
