An insulated sleeve is provided to be coupled to an outer surface of a cup. The sleeve is formed from an insulative cellular non-aromatic polymeric material having an area of plastic deformation. There are no fractures in the insulative cellular non-aromatic polymeric material so that a predetermined insulative characteristic is maintained in the material.

This device is a flexible insulated beverage holder with a rigid arcuate plate and a rigid handle attached. This device allows a user to hold only the handle and insert a beverage container into the insulated beverage holder. This is achievable because the attached plate forces the insulated beverage holder to provide an expanded opening at its top. As the beverage is inserted into the opening created by the plate the user need only grip the handle as the beverage container is pushed to the bottom of the insulated beverage holder. This device provides the benefits of grasping a sturdy handle, while also providing significant portability with the flexible insulated beverage holder.

A drinking vessel has a container for a beverage and includes a covering. The drinking vessel has a support structure accommodating the container. The covering covers the support structure at least partially on a side facing away from the container. Further, a holding device for a drinking vessel of this kind is disclosed, which has a sleeve body with a receptacle adapted to the support structure of the container, in which receptacle the drinking vessel can be held, wherein at least one connection means for fastening the holding device in the bag body of a handbag is provided.

The application discloses an insulating device or “cooler” for a canned or bottled drink with an attached handle that itself accommodates a cylindrical, semi-cylindrical, or rectilinear object. A cigarette lighter or the like may be stored in the handle.

A beverage holder with an insulating sleeve holds a beverage container and a light mount with a light. The light mount comprises an exterior housing located outside the insulating sleeve and on a lateral wall of the insulating sleeve. A light is carried by the exterior housing and located outside of the insulating sleeve. An interior backing is located on an interior of the insulating sleeve and fastened to the exterior housing through the insulating sleeve. The exterior housing and the interior backing sandwich a portion of the lateral wall of the insulating sleeve.

A cup holder that includes a sleeve, which is expandable from a flat position to an open position, in which the sleeve is configured to receive a cup; and a handle having first and second ends coupled to the sleeve to form a loop, wherein at least one perforation associated with at least one of the first and second ends of the handle provides for adjustability of the loop relative to the sleeve.

A disposable sleeve for containers and systems and methods using such a disposable sleeve. The disposable sleeve includes a liner having inner and outer surfaces, a housing coupled to the inner surface of the liner with the housing defining a pocket and an opening to access the pocket, a heating element disposed within the pocket, and a cover disposed over the opening and coupled to the housing to enclose the pocket. The cover is at least partially removable from the housing to uncover at least a portion of the opening and to enable activation of the heating element to generate heat upon exposure to air.

A method for forming a foldable beverage shade involves joining a bottom edge of a fabric sheet with an overall height from the bottom edge to a center of the curved top edge, around a cylindrical outer surface of a coaster element using attachment interfaces, and raising spreader elements shaped to have a circular arc length greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees, the spreader elements engaged in loops spanning the centerline of the fabric sheet, to be horizontal, and engaging ends of the spreader elements in pockets joined to the fabric sheet along the side edges of the fabric sheet, such that the spreader elements, such that the fabric sheet forms an erect shade above and around the coaster element, and a beverage container may be placed on the coaster element and be shaded.

Insulative haberdashery systems and methods are disclosed for holding a beverage container. Exemplary holder systems include a flexible sleeve that receives the beverage container, an attachment mechanism such as a stitch line, and a folded kerchief having an upper presentation section and a lower attachment section. The attachment mechanism couples the lower attachment section of the folded kerchief with an interior surface of the flexible sleeve. The upper presentation section of the folded kerchief is adapted to alternate between a tucked configuration where the upper presentation section is positioned within the cavity of the flexible sleeve and an untucked configuration where the upper presentation section is positioned outside of the cavity of the flexible sleeve. The system can be placed within a jacket pocket, so that the sleeve is flattened and the upper presentation system extends from the jacket pocket.
