A system may include a beverage compartment with a beverage positioned therein, a wetted material disposed about the beverage, at least one sorption cartridge, and a vacuum pump. The sorption cartridge may be in communication with the beverage compartment, and the vacuum pump may be in communication with the sorption cartridge to create a vacuum in the sorption cartridge and the beverage compartment, causing water to evaporate from the wetted material and be captured by the sorption cartridge, thereby lowering the temperature of the wetted material and in turn cooling the beverage. In some instances, the sorption cartridge may be detached from the vacuum pump and the beverage compartment to discharge the captured water therein by way of solar energy. In other instances, the sorption cartridge may be in communication with a heater assembly to blow heated air through the sorption cartridge to discharge the captured water therein.

Systems and methods have demonstrated the capability of rapidly cooling the contents of pods containing the ingredients for food and drinks.

Beverage chillers are disclosed. A beverage chiller may include a container platform that receives a beverage container and a chiller tank. The chiller tank may have a central axis and may have an agitator. The chiller tank may be filled with water. A conveyor may move the container platform and beverage container into the chiller tank. The container platform and beverage container may rotate in a first direction in the chiller tank and the agitator may rotate the water in a second direction.

The double walled vacuum insulated beverage housing system provides an aperture for receiving a heat transfer unit. The heat transfer unit also provides an aperture for receiving a beverage vessel within the heat transfer unit. The heat transfer unit stores a heat transfer material including but not limited to a fluid, gel, phase change material, or other substance that can be heated or cooled depending upon the desired effect on the beverage. A retention shoulder secures the heat transfer unit adjacent an insulating chamber to insulate both the heat transfer unit and the beverage.

A cooling or heating device for cooling and/or heating fluids includes a housing and a plurality of cooling plates. The cooling plates are arranged inside the housing, and the cooling plates each comprise at least one cooling channel for guiding a cooling or heating medium through the cooling plates. A container support surface is provided for arranging at least one first container containing a fluid to be heated or cooled inside the housing, and there is a first air blower in the housing for blowing air onto the cooling plates and/or into spaces between the cooling plates.

A covid protection cooler system is provided. The system includes a five-panel sided box structure. The box structure includes a back, bottom, front, left and right panels. The system also includes a top panel with back and side hinges. The back hinges allow the top panel to swivel between open and closed positions and the side hinges maintain the top panel in an open position for replenishing ice. The top panel includes a plurality of openings. The system includes a lock hasp positionable on the front panel and the top panel. The system includes a plurality of cylindrical container holders affixed to a top surface of the bottom panel. The exterior surfaces of the container holders and the interior surfaces of the five-panel box structure form an interior ice chamber. The system includes a water barrier liner on an interior surface of the ice chamber. System includes a drain plug.

The present invention relates to an instant temperature-controlled cooling apparatus or device to chill food and beverage containers and the contents rapidly to a sub-zero temperature. The chill device is compact and portable for ease of use on the go and away from the comforts of home. The chill device is made up of a transport chamber with pump, coolant chamber with actuator to move coolant into coils within the container chamber. Chilling of coolant may occur from activation of chemical reaction or via an external power source and pump. The coolant flows through a closed system to prevent contamination and to maintain the desired temperatures for extended periods of time. The instant temperature- controlled cooling apparatus maintains safe and sanitary conditions while rapidly cooling or chilling food and beverage container and relieves users of the necessity of ice or water for maintaining safe temperatures.

The disclosure features various embodiments and aspects of containers and related systems for quenching contents of the containers.

A mechanical apparatus comprised of a plurality of pods in the form of a cylindrical sleeve, containing liquid, to be frozen for the purpose of dynamically transfer/impart its charged thermal energy to a directly contacted object placed within. The pods are joined to each other by elastic bands allowing it to instantly expanse and grip varying size beverage containers. Furthermore, the plurality of pods and a beverage container are disposed in an insulated holder; a sealable cap is then inserted to seal off and insulate the discharging of thermal energy therein from ambient conditions. A beverage in the form of can or bottle may be placed in the apparatus to achieve desired chill temperature for an extended length of time in high ambient temperature conditions.

Systems and methods have demonstrated the capability of rapidly cooling the contents of pods containing the ingredients for food and drinks.
