A supplemental cooling device for a beverage container. Ice and water are introduced through a top opening in a housing which is wider than the outside diameter of the container, so the container is freely inserted into the housing. A lid assembly with a compliant seal is removably threaded to the housing. When in a relaxed and open position, the seal has an opening which is also wider than the outside diameter of the beverage container. After inserting the container, the lid assembly is tightened against the housing, and the compliant seal is deflected against the beverage container to isolate the annular space between the housing and beverage container, thereby allowing the housing and beverage container to be tipped for drinking without spilling the coolant. Once the drink is consumed, the compliant seal may be disengaged so that it is open again, permitting easy removal of the beverage container.

Methods, processes, compositions, apparatus, kits and systems for chilling and cooling beverages and desserts to selected desired temperatures by adding the beverages and desserts to different mixtures of brine solutions and bags of loose ice. The invention forms and creates an aqueous solution composition of certain salinity of ice-melter (such as sodium chloride salt and/or calcium chloride). The composition is poured in a pre-defined amount evenly over a known amount of bagged-ice in a cooler. The result is a precisely controlled and evenly distributed temperature (within a few degrees Fahrenheit) can be obtained within the ice-solution mixture. Next, canned and bottled beverages (and other items) can be submerged in the precision controlled temperature ice-solution mixture to create certain desired effects only possible by chilling items to a known temperature below 32 degrees.

An icy table relating to a field of movable refrigerated containers includes a base, a support column, an ice bucket, and an amusement table, the base is connected to a lower end of the support column, the amusement table is configured on an upper end of the support column, and the amusement table includes a drinks holder and a game table. The icy table includes an ice bucket and an amusement table, which not only has a function of cooling drinks, but also has amusement function, and the multifunctional icy table can broaden the application areas, improve the practicality and lasting appeal, and promote the use thereof.

A portable C02 based cooler and beverage dispensing system for pressurizing and cooling beverage tanks, comprises a vibration-absorbing portable shell with a snap on removable tray for holding beverage containers and ice-cream-recesses, two growler-vibration-absorbing circular springs molded on the shell bottom for absorbing vibration from transportation and for holding and separating two beverage tanks, a tank-vibration-absorbing circular spring molded on the shell bottom for absorbing vibration from transportation and for holding a pressurized tank, a clamping system for clamping on and stabilizing two beverage growlers and a pressurized tank for transportation, two multi-height spigots, two height-adjustable telescopic posts, and a retractable height-adjustable spigot-locking handle attached the two posts and having two spigot-locking receptacles molded thereon for locking and adjusting the multi-height spigots to multiple different heights.

An evaporator for a constant-temperature high-humidity storage chamber includes a cold-air temperature-humidity change unit having plurality of crushed-ice heat exchangers and a blower device to blow cold air into the cold-air temperature-humidity change unit; the plurality of crushed-ice heat exchangers each has a blade shape the width of which, in direction perpendicular to the airflow direction of the cold air, is large at the head portion and decreases toward the tail portion; the crushed-ice heat exchangers adjoining one another in the direction perpendicular to the airflow direction of the cold air such that the blade head portion of each crushed-ice heat exchanger adjoins the blade tail; thereby increasing surface area and volume of the ice forming the blade shape by crushed ice piled in the evaporator, and increasing the stability of the chamber temperature and amount of evaporation.

A fluid container has a housing with two discharge ends, one end being opened and having a removable cap threadably engaged with and covering that end and the second end having a bottom section which is removeably attached to the main body by a connector element. An ice containing member in the form of an ice tray is secured to the interior of the housing. The ice tray is filled with water and the fluid container itself is placed in a freezer, allowing the water in the ice tray to freeze. A drinkable fluid is poured into the container and, by means of the ice, kept cold. Alternatively, after ice is formed in the ice tray, the connector member is peeled off and the bottom section removed. The ice in the ice tray is then broken out of the tray and used for outside purposes.

The present invention is a multipurpose ice chest. The device having an insulated storage chest with a water reservoir in its base, an ice maker with a water uptake system from the reservoir affixed to the inside of the insulated storage chest, an air conditioning unit having a submersible pump within the reservoir in fluid communication with a radiator and a fan that draws air through the radiator reducing the temperature of the air being drawn through the radiator, an electronic control unit in electronic communication with the ice maker and the air conditioning unit and a means for generating and storing energy connected to the electronic control unit.

A refrigerator appliance includes a cabinet defining a chilled chamber, a door being rotatably mounted to the cabinet to provide selective access to the chilled chamber, the door defining an access opening passing through the door, and a drawer assembly mounted to the door. The drawer assembly includes a drawer frame slidably mounted to the door within the access opening and being movable between an open position and a closed position and a drawer front mounted to the drawer frame, the drawer front being configured to seal the access opening when the drawer frame is in the closed position.

An ice lid for a drinking vessel, the ice lid formed of the ice cubes to be mixed in the beverage in the drinking vessel and a support structure for keeping the ice cubes together. It is characteristic of the ice lid that it is designed such that it stays in place on top of the drinking vessel. Additionally, the subject of the invention is a mold for producing the ice lid as well as a drinking storage system that comprises the drinking vessel and the ice lid.

An insulating device can include an aperture having a waterproof closure which allows access to the chamber within the insulating device. The closure can help prevent any fluid leakage into and out of the insulating device if the insulating device is overturned or in any configuration other than upright. The closure may also prevent any fluid from permeating into the chamber if the insulating device is exposed to precipitation, other fluid, or submersed under water. This construction results in an insulating chamber that is substantially impervious to water and other liquids when the closure is sealed.
