Beverage container insulator assemblies include a beverage insulator having a beverage insulator interior. A retaining collar is carried by the beverage insulator and has a collar opening. A beverage container is in the beverage insulator interior of the beverage insulator. The beverage container extends through the collar opening of the retaining collar. An insulator sleeve includes a sleeve base encircling the beverage container and retained between the beverage insulator and the retaining collar. A thermally-insulating, flexible, expandable and contractible insulator sleeve body extends from the sleeve base through the collar opening of the retaining collar. The insulator sleeve body engages and substantially conforms to the beverage container. An expandable sleeve neck on the insulator sleeve body engages the beverage container. Insulator sleeves for beverage containers are also disclosed.

A serving container and ring element system that includes a serving dish and a ring element having a ring element lip with a shape that substantially corresponds to a shape of a serving dish lip, wherein portions of the ring element lip are formed to be positionable around at least a portion of the serving dish lip to provide frictional engagement between portions of said ring element lip and at least a portion of said serving dish lip, such that said ring element is capable of securing a foil pan within said serving dish.

Disclosed are a vacuum insulation material having a structure from which a folding process can be removed, a vacuum insulation material manufacturing method, and a refrigerator including the vacuum insulation material. The vacuum insulation material comprises: a core material; a first outer cover material disposed at the outside of the core material; a second outer cover material coupled to the first outer cover material so as to form an accommodation space in which the compressed core material is accommodated; and coupling parts provided at edges of the first outer cover material and the second outer cover material, wherein the length of the coupling part is 10-30 mm.

A beverage chilling canister with the beverage container that is being chilled in the canister remaining in the canister when the beverage is poured from the beverage container, thereby avoiding ice displacement when the beverage container is otherwise removed from the canister to pour the beverage and moisture on the outside surface of the beverage container from dripping when the beverage container is otherwise removed from the canister to pour the beverage.

Portable carrying devices are provided with multiple variable compartments. Included are a shaped container having a bottom panel and side panels arranged according to a shaped container perimeter, along with a shaped insert having a perimeter wall that lies within the shaped container perimeter. The shaped insert has a plurality of movable dividers within the perimeter wall of the shaped insert, the shaped insert further including one or more living hinge portions. This shaped insert, including its perimeter wall, movable dividers and the living hinge portion, is of a unitary structure; and the shaped insert is within and removable from the shaped container.

The quick penetration bottle having high heat transfer rate has a tip, base, body, shoulder, neck, mouth and cap. The small frontal surface area of the tip allows a user to apply a minimal amount of force to the bottle to create a large amount of pressure to penetrate a medium, such as ice, and the sloped face of the base directs the medium around the body. The material used is thermally conductive and the shape of the bottle achieves a high rate of heat transfer due to the high surface area to volume ratio. The cap has low thermal conductivity minimizing the rate of heat transfer through the cap. The base and body of the bottle is submerged into a medium with a lower temperature with only the cap exposed to the environment allowing the thermal properties of the bottle to reduce the temperature of the contents within.
