A double-layer detachable slushy maker cup with sealing connection assembly has an inner core and an outer cup body. An upper portion of the inner core is limited and sleeved with a sealing connection assembly; a cup rim of the inner core is in sealed connection to an upper end opening of the sealing connection assembly; the outer cup body is provided with an inner retaining ring edge which is connected to an outer side of the sealing connection assembly in a sealed manner; the outer cup body and the inner core are sealed stably; a lower portion of the inner core is provided with a convex rib structure.

A heat transfer member fabricated of a thermally conductive material has a curved exterior surface with a central axis and is formed with an axial aperture and annular exterior fins with parallel spaces between the fins. A handle member is fabricated of a thermally insulating material. A coupling member has a cylindrical configuration and has a first end removably received in the aperture of the heat transfer member and has a second end coupled to the handle member.

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.

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.

The insulated beverage housing provides an aperture for receiving a heat transfer body. Similarly, the heat transfer body provides an aperture for receiving a container. The heat transfer body stores a heat transfer material including but not limited to a fluid, gel, or other substance that can be heated or cooled depending upon the desired effect on the beverage. The removable heat transfer body may be easily removed and/or installed from the housing to heat or cool the heat transfer material for use in affecting the temperature of the beverage.

A beverage container has two main components: a drinking container and a chilling container. The chilling container is filled (or prefilled) with a chilling agent and placed in an environment suitable for freezing of the fluid. The chilling container is then coupled to the drinking container and the chilling container will chill the beverage contained within the drinking container. Flow restrictors within the chilling container prevent the frozen material from rising into the drinking container. The drinking container and chilling container are both designed to be reusable.

The present invention relates to a product and method for cell preservation, such as cell banking of any type of cells for subsequent scientific or medical use. More closely, the invention relates to a product and a method for cryopreservation of cells using vacuum tubes provided with freeze media/cryopreservation liquid.

A temperature control device for a container includes a base, a projection extending from the base and temperature control substance contained within an inner chamber of the projection. The base has a bottom wall, at least one side wall, and a top wall from which the projection extends. The projection includes a side wall, a bottom wall and a top wall which together define an inner chamber in which the temperature control substance is located. Preferably, the temperature control substance is one of a phase changing material or an activated carbon. The device is configured to connect with a bottom wall opening of a container to provide temperature control to the contents located within the container.

An ice core, a beverage container with an ice core and a method of making the ice core and the beverage container with the ice core is disclosed. The ice core includes an ice core body, an ice core rim formed on the ice core body and an ice core tube formed through the ice core body and the ice core rim. The ice core is configured for placement in a beverage container. A lid having a slit formed thereon can be placed on the beverage container. A straw can be inserted through the slit in the lid, allowing the straw to have access to the beverage container and the ice core tube. wherein the straw placed through the ice core tube is configured to extend from the top region to the base region of the beverage container to access liquid at the base region.

An insert for a beverage container is provided that includes an inner container, a first rim, a second rim, and one or more protrusions. The inner container may be positioned inside of the beverage container and may include a first end having a first edge, an opposing second end having a second edge, and side surfaces extending between the first and second edge. The first rim is formed on the first edge of the inner container and includes a first diameter. The second rim is formed on the second edge of the inner container and includes a second diameter. The protrusions extend downwardly from the second end toward the beverage container. The first end is open and the second end is closed. A thermal regulating material is positioned between the inner container and the beverage container.
