Abstract: An airpot beverage dispenser having a body with a beverage cavity, a lid with lower and upper lid portions, a bellows within the upper lid portion, an actuator for compressing the bellows to increase the pressure of trapped air in the bellows, a duckbill valve, a skirt valve extending fully around the duckbill valve, and a spout. The skirt valve is movable into sealing engagement with a lid lower wall to define an air flow path from the bellows to the beverage cavity, and when the pressure of the trapped air in the bellows is sufficiently increased, the duckbill valve opens and passes the trapped air to the beverage cavity to force beverage out the spout. When the spout is moved to a stored position and the dispenser is in a locked state, the skirt valve serves as a relief valve to prevent over pressure in the beverage cavity.

Abstract: A beverage container having a container body, a lid attachable to the container body, a handle and a hook. The handle has first and second handle portions rotatably attached to the lid and a grippable handle portion extending therebetween. The hook has a first hook end portion with a free-end portion, and a second hook end portion rigidly and fixedly attached to the first handle portion. The handle and hook may each have a frame portion formed from a metal flat band with the bands welded together. The handle frame and hook frame portions may be overmolded with a plastic covering. The hook extends laterally outward to beyond the outer sidewall of the container body when the handle is raised.
