An absorbent, insulative sleeve with an attached absorbent insulated closing lid for a beverage bucket or pail that holds multiple beverages is disclosed. Particularly, the present device relates to a sleeve with an attached closing lid for a bucket, as might be served in a bar or restaurant, filled with ice or cold water for keeping beverages cold at a customer's table. The lid is moveable between a covered and uncovered position, and when in a covered position, prevents heat transfer to or from the enclosed multiple beverages. The lid may be closed using mechanisms such as Velcro, hook and loop, snap or the like.

An insulated bag reduces heat exchange between temperature-sensitive items and ambient surroundings. The insulated bag has a bag body which can be covered by a bag lid. The bag lid is provided with a first portion of a securing element. The insulated bag is suitable for insertion into an item space of a mobile delivery robot. The mobile robot has a robot lid provided with a complementary second portion of the securing element. After the insulated bag is inserted into the item space, the two portions of the securing element are connected. Thereafter, when the robot lid is opened, the bag lid is also opened, permitting access to its contents.

An insulating device backpack may include an outer shell comprising a first sidewall defining a front portion of the insulating device backpack, a second sidewall and a third sidewall defining side portions of the insulating device backpack, and a fourth sidewall defining a back portion of the insulating device backpack, an inner liner forming a storage compartment, an insulating layer positioned in between the outer shell and the inner liner, a back panel support structure coupled to a reinforcement patch and the fourth sidewall of the outer shell, a pair of shoulder straps coupled to the back panel, an opening configured to allow access to the storage compartment, and a closure adapted to seal the opening.

An apparatus and method of forming a shell defining a first side and a second side, wherein the shell is formed from a one-piece integral structure, forming an opening configured to provide access to the storage compartment, the opening including a closure device, forming a first carry strap and a second carry strap, forming a plurality of reinforcement patches, and forming a base.

An insulating device can include a body assembly and a lid assembly where an insulating layer is connected to both the body assembly and the lid assembly. An aperture with a closure is formed between the body assembly and lid assembly to form a storage compartment. An insulating tab may be formed from a portion of the insulating layer and an inner liner of the body assembly to help insulate the closure region. In addition, a first magnetic element may be secured within the insulating tab that may engage a second magnetic element secured within the lid assembly.

An apparatus including a shell defining a first side and a second side, wherein the shell is formed from a one-piece integral structure, wherein the one-piece integral structure is joined together to form a seam, and wherein the seam is on one of the second side or the first side, a storage compartment, and an opening configured to provide access to the storage compartment.

An insulating device can include an aperture having a waterproof closure which allows access to the chamber within the insulating device. The closure can help prevent any fluid leakage into and out of the insulating device if the insulating device is overturned or in any configuration other than upright. The closure also prevents any fluid from permeating into the chamber if the insulating device is exposed to precipitation, other fluid, or submersed under water. This construction results in an insulating chamber impervious to water and other liquids when the closure is sealed.
