Abstract
A liquid dispenser adapted to dispense liquid from a beverage container. The liquid dispenser includes a top portion and a bottom portion. The liquid dispenser includes an electric powered pump that is configured to cause fluid to flow into the bottom portion when the electric powered pump is activated.

Claims18
A liquid dispenser adapted to dispense liquid from a beverage container, said liquid dispenser including a top portion and a bottom portion, an electric powered air pump and a power supply configured to power said electric powered pump;
- said electric powered air pump configured to cause fluid to flow into said bottom portion and then into said top portion when said electric powered air pump is activated, said bottom portion fluidly connected or interconnected to said top portion, said top portion including a dispenser activator system and a dispensing portion, said dispenser activator system configured to activate said electric powered air pump, said dispenser portion configured to enable fluid that flows to said top portion to exit said top portion through said dispenser portion, said dispenser activator system configured to inhibit pressurized air in a container to which the liquid dispenser is connected to exit said top portion while said electric powered air pump is activated and to allow pressurized air in the container to which the liquid dispenser is connected to exit said top portion when said electric powered air pump is deactivated.
A method for converting a container into a container having an electric dispenser comprising:
- a. providing a liquid dispenser adapted to dispense liquid from the container, said liquid dispenser including a top portion and a bottom portion, an electric powered air pump and a power supply configured to power said electric powered pump;
- said electric powered air pump configured to cause fluid to flow into said bottom portion and then into said top portion when said electric powered air pump is activated, said bottom portion fluidly connected or interconnected to said top portion, said top portion including a dispenser activator system and a dispensing portion, said dispenser activator system configured to activate said electric powered air pump, said dispenser portion configured to enable fluid that flows to said top portion to exit said top portion through said dispenser portion, said dispenser activator system configured to inhibit pressurized air in a container to which the liquid dispenser is connected to exit said top portion while said electric powered air pump is activated and to allow pressurized air in the container to which the liquid dispenser is connected to exit said top portion when said electric powered air pump is deactivated;
- b. placing said bottom portion in the container;
- and,
- c. actuating said dispenser activator so that power from said power supply energizes said electric powered air pump to cause pressurized air to flow into a cavity of the container to thereby cause fluid in the container to flow into said bottom portion through one or more openings in said bottom portion, to said top portion, and out through said dispensing portion.
