Beverage container with self-contained drinking straw

摘要

A beverage container (110) has a straw dispensing mechanism (124) that is disposed within the container to bring the straw (130) into alignment with the orifice (120) in the top (116) of the container (110). When the orifice (120) is opened, the straw (130) elevates through the orifice (120) to become accessible to the user. The straw (130) engages a floating member (126) which is urged against the lid of the container.
