REFRIGERATOR
The present disclosure relates to a refrigerator including a main body in a storage compartment is provided, a rack to partition an inner space of the storage compartment in an up-down direction, a pair of support protrusions protruding from opposite inner sidewalls of the storage compartment to support the rack, and buffer members disposed on the support protrusions to elastically support opposite side ends of the rack.
BEVERAGE CONTAINER WITH ACTIVE TEMPERATURE CONTROL
A container with active temperature control system is provided. The active temperature control system is operated to heat or cool a chamber sized to receive a beverage therein.
RETAINER MEMBER
A retainer member is provided for retaining a food receptacle relative to an inner liner of an appliance cabinet or door. The retainer includes a base that is movably coupleable to the inner liner and first and second arms that extend from the base. The first and second arms are curved about an axis and define a passageway extending through the first and second arms along the axis. A free end of the first arm is spaced from a free end of the second arm to define an opening to provide radial access to the passageway through the opening.
Infant bottle system
An infant bottle feeding system includes an infant bottle with a chamber that receives a liquid, heating or cooling elements operable to heat or cool liquid in the chamber and sensors operable to sense parameters of the liquid in the chamber. The system optionally includes an electronic base removably attached to a bottom surface of the infant bottle and operable to deliver power to electronics in the infant bottle. The system optionally includes a thermal cover that fits over the infant bottle and releasably couples to the electronic base to enclose the infant bottle, the thermal cover insulating the infant bottle and inhibiting heat loss of the liquid in the chamber. The electronic base delivers power to the heating elements and sensors in the infant bottle only when the infant bottle is on the electronic base. The infant bottle, thermal cover and electronic base define a single travel pack unit when coupled together.
Cooler with Barrier
A system and method for a cooler with a barrier. The cooler has an internal void and a barrier located within said void. The barrier has at least one covered opening. The barrier acts as a physical barrier which prevents air from exiting the cooler. A user can retrieve contents through the covered opening. In this manner, the temperature within the cooler is maintained.
Beverage containers and coolants therefore
The device includes a container (10) having a top (12) and a bottom (14). A receptacle (15) is formed in the container and joined to an orifice (22) at the bottom (14). A cooling medium (26) is contained within the receptacle and able to retain a cooling environment to cool the beverage. In one embodiment, a beverage container has an opening (72) that permits the emptying of the beverage from the container and a coolant capsule (73) within said container. The cooling capsule (73) contains a cooling medium and the capsule is dimensioned such that the capsule is larger than the opening (72) but has surface characteristics (77,78) which permit the beverage within the container to bypass the capsule (73) and to exit the opening.
COOLING COASTER
A cooling coaster includes a coaster body and an internal reservoir. The coaster body has an upper face, a lower face, a plurality of side faces between the upper and lower faces and a stabilizing structure. There is a lip at the upper face. A port communicates between the internal reservoir and one of the faces. A plug is configured to selective seal the port. A cooling substance is provided to the internal reservoir. A method for cooling a beverage includes providing a coaster body having an upper face, a lower face, and a plurality of side faces between the upper and lower faces, through a port, supplying a cooling substance to an internal reservoir in the coaster body and placing a plug in the port to seal the internal reservoir.
Ganged reservoir system
Examples herein relate generally to reservoirs for use in water distribution systems within an appliance. The reservoir herein allows for the combination of various components prepared by separate manufacturing processes and for reducing waste of those manufacturing components. Specifically, the reservoir herein provides a daisy-chain structure for forming a ganged reservoir system.
MULTI ACCESSORY RACK
An accessory rack includes a pair of support arms. Each support arm includes a rail that is configured to slidably receive and retain a retention feature formed on an accessory item. Each rail is spaced apart based on a predetermined width that corresponds to the distance between retention features disposed on the sides of one or more, interchangeable accessory items. The accessory rack may be slidably coupled to an existing refrigerator shelf assembly. A refrigerator shelf assembly may include an integrated accessory rack.
THERMAL REGULATING LAY FLAT BEVERAGE CONTAINER PACKAGING
Beverage container packing trays, systems, and techniques of packing beverage containers include at least a beverage container tray including beverage container contoured compartments configured to receive one or more beverage containers in a lay flat configuration. The beverage container contoured compartments include at least a cradle element, a conical element, and a neck support element. The beverage container tray includes thermo pack compartments that house transport thermo packs adjacent to at least a portion of the beverage containers.
