DISPOSABLE CONTAINER FOR LIQUIDS WITH MOLDED LINER

A container primarily for hot (or cold) beverages such as gourmet coffee has an outer shell formed of a stiff sheet material having heat insulating properties such as cardboard which can be erected from a flat storage condition to enclose an inner lining member for containing the liquid. The inner liner is blow molded from a plastics material to form an integral structure including a ne ck and a handle projecting through openings in the shell so as to be exposed on an exterior of the container for manual transportation and lifting of the container. The us e of a blow molded integral liner allows the handle to be integral with the liner a nd relatively stiff as a tubular member parallel to an inclined upper surface of the liner . An optional folded leg can be provided to allow the liner to be drained through an optional spigot on the neck. An optional accessory box can be slung on a fla p engaged around the neck. The molded liner is translucent allowing the fill level to be observed through a flap window provided in the side wall of the shell.
