ABSTRACT:
A beverage server includes a body having an internal reservoir to hold a beverage such as hot coffee. In one embodiment, a lid is pivotally connected to the top of the body. The lid has a generally conical passage provided through it which permits a beverage to enter the beverage server and pass into the reservoir without requiring removal of the lid. A floatable ball is located within the passage to seal it when no liquid is entering the beverage server. A pouring spout extends from the body near its top and is in fluid communication with the reservoir when the beverage server is tilted and the lid pivots. A counter-weight in the lid assists in bringing the lid into sealing engagement with the body to isolate the pouring spout and the reservoir when the beverage server is upright. The counter-weight also assists in smooth motion of the lid as it pivots through its entire range of movement when the beverage server is tilted.
