Claim 10:
11. A low-profile liquid container lid assembly for enabling liquid collection and heat transfer from lid-collected liquid prior to liquid egression, the low-profile liquid container lid assembly comprising:
a lower lid formation, the lower lid formation comprising a liquid-collecting pan portion, the liquid-collecting pan portion comprising a downwardly extending pan wall and at least one liquid-letting aperture formed in the downwardly extending pan wall, the lower lid formation being attachable to an upper container rim of a liquid container, the at least one liquid-letting aperture facing a container wall of the liquid container, the liquid-collecting pan portion comprising upper portion surfacing; and
an upper lid formation, the upper lid formation being receivable by the lower lid formation and comprising a pan-opposing portion and a primary liquid outlet, the pan-opposing portion comprising lower portion surfacing, the upper and lower portion surfacing together defining a liquid-receiving cavity when the upper lid formation is received by the lower lid formation, the liquid-receiving cavity for receiving and shaping a liquid volume receivable therein via the at least one liquid-letting aperture, the primary liquid outlet being orientable in superior adjacency to the lower lid formation for outletting a portion of the liquid volume via the primary liquid outlet;
the upper lid formation comprising laterally-opposed, cavity-defining conformation sections, the laterally-opposed, cavity-defining conformation sections conforming to the upper portion surfacing for eliminating space between the upper and lower lid formations and directing the liquid volume into the liquid-receiving cavity.
