Definitions
- the invention disclosed herein relates generally to beverage carafes, and more particularly to an improved disposable storage and dispensing carafe which allows the easy storage, transport and dispensing of a bulk volume of a hot or cold beverage in a throw-away container.
- thermoses or carafes make their sale as a container for a hot or cold beverage sold in a traditional carry-out or catering business setting highly impractical.
- providing large volume containers for carry-out beverages creates a significant packaging and storage challenge, in that large volume carafes and thermoses take up large amounts of physical space both in shipping vehicles and in storage facilities at retail locations, making their widespread use even more impractical.
- an object of the present invention to provide a cost efficient, disposable storage and dispensing carafe which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art. It is another object of the present invention to provide a disposable storage and dispensing carafe which enables easy, safe dispensing of the contents of the carafe. It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a disposable storage and dispensing carafe having an insulated exterior to maintain the temperature of the carafe contents and to protect persons and objects from inadvertent burns from contacting a stored hot beverage.
- a disposable storage and dispensing carafe having a rigid first means for manually transporting the carafe, and a rigid second means for dispensing the carafe contents. It is still even yet another object of the present invention to provide a disposable storage and dispensing carafe having a rigid frame with a readily replaceable fluid content carrier.
- a disposable storage and dispensing carafe is disclosed which enables the easy transport and dispensing of a large volume (preferably at least 96 to 128 fluid ounces) of a liquid without risk of burn or spillage of the carafe contents.
