BEVERAGE HEATING SYSTEM
A beverage heating system is provided that enables hot beverages, such as coffee or tea, to be enjoyed at a desired temperature for a longer period of time, without requiring the beverages to be reheated, and without requiring any external power source. The system comprises a hot beverage reservoir, for receiving a hot beverage for consumption therefrom; and a self-heating element, configured to heat a base portion of the hot beverage reservoir, during consumption therefrom, to maintain a desired temperature of the hot beverage, without requiring any external power. The self-heating element may be configured to heat based upon an exothermic reaction.
Dual-Chamber Beverage Container
A dual-chamber beverage container for reducing a temperature of a hot beverage to a safe and comfortable drinking temperature. The dual-chamber beverage container includes an insulated bottom chamber for maintaining a temperature of a hot liquid, a cooling chamber for receiving and cooling the hot liquid to a comfortable drinking temperature, and a housing. The housing contains a motorized pump operably connected to a power source also contained within the housing. A transport tube extends from the bottom chamber, through a channel within the housing and terminates within the cooling chamber. A switch is disposed on an exterior side of the beverage container and operably connected to the motorized pump such that activation of the switch causes the motorized pump to pump air into the bottom chamber, displacing the liquid and forcing the liquid from the bottom chamber into the cooling chamber through the transport tube.
DOUBLE-WALLED CONTAINERS AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME
A double-walled containers and methods of making the same for decorative purposes is provided. The double-walled container may be formed from two proportional containers nested together. The outer container has a slight larger bottom surface through the angle of the sidewall relative to each container's bottom surface is substantially similar. An insertion hole is preformed into the bottom surface of the outer container prior to nesting and rigidly connecting the two containers.
DRINKWARE CONTAINER WITH ACTIVE TEMPERATURE CONTROL
An actively heated or cooled mug has a body with a chamber that can receive and hold a beverage and a heating or cooling system disposed at least partially in a cavity below the chamber. The heating or cooling system has a heating or cooling element to actively heat or cool the chamber, power storage devices, and circuitry that controls the operation of the heating or cooling elements. A user interface is electrically connected to the circuitry and has one or more selection members actuatable a) to turn off the one or more heating or cooling element or b) to adjust a temperature setting to one of multiple temperature settings configured to control the one or more heating or cooling elements to heat or maintain the liquid at a user selected temperature.
CONTAINER WITH HEATING/COOLING ASSEMBLY AND REMOVABLE POWER SOURCE MODULES
The embodiments disclose an attachable battery base module configured for powering at least one attachable application module coupled to the attachable battery base module, wherein the attachable battery base is configured for powering the at least one attachable application module, a heating module attachment with a temperature control module coupled to the attachable battery base module configured for heating and/or boiling a liquid, a cooling module attachment with the temperature control module coupled to the attachable battery base module configured for cooling a liquid and wherein the temperature control module includes a temperature maintenance mode, wherein the temperature maintenance mode is configured for maintaining a preset, predefined or user preselected desired temperature when the desired temperature is reached.
Double-walled beverage container and method of forming the same
A glass double-walled beverage container, having an inner body sidewall lower end portion in fluid-tight engagement with an inner body end wall to define an interior beverage cavity, an outer body sidewall lower end portion in fluid-tight engagement with an outer body end wall, the outer body sidewall extending fully about the inner body sidewall, an inner body sidewall upper end portion and an outer body sidewall upper end portion being rigidly connected together and in fluid-tight engagement, the inner body end wall being positioned above and spaced apart from the outer body end wall to provide an interior space therebetween, and a non-glass adhesive material positioned in the interior space adhered to both the inner and outer body end walls. A method of making same is provided.
Advanced Intelligent Fluid Bottle Apparatus, Method, and System
The disclosure relates to the first seriously smart water bottle. The bottle is designed to provide an easier, more accurate approach to tracking and loggings one's water/fluid intake with minimal effort from the user. Mass utilization of this environmental-friendly hydration tool will also serve as a catalyst for the promotion of environmental consciousness and add value by helping push the conversation forward about global environmental protection. Variations of this mechanism will grant anyone, with a smart device, the ability to monitor the amount of water/fluid consumption, not only for themselves, but also for anyone else they care for, from infants to senior citizens. The device will operate in conjunction with its namesakes' software application. Regardless of gender, age, height, weight, health condition, or activity level this tool will undoubtedly aid the user in leading a healthier, more productive lifestyle and in some cases, be essential to the preservation of life.
Methods and systems for controlling and maintaining the temperature of a drink within a drinking vessel
Disclosed herein are systems for controlling and maintaining the temperature of a drink. The system may include a receptacle defining a recess for receiving a drinking vessel. The system may have a stand for holding the receptacle upright. The stand may be releasably attached to the receptacle. The receptacle may include a top end portion, a bottom end portion, an inner wall portion, and an outer wall portion. The top end portion may define a top opening of the recess. A system may include a first receptacle defining a first recess for receiving a drinking vessel. The system may include a second receptacle for receiving a drinking vessel, wherein the second receptacle defines a second recess. The system may include a first stand operable to releasably attach to the first receptacle and the second receptacle. Also disclosed are methods for controlling and maintaining the temperature of a drink.
Electronic stove and universal power supply
An electronic stove incorporates a cylindrical outer shell and a concentric copper heater core. A foil heater surrounds the copper heater core and a heater control PCB carried in the outer shell is connected to the foil heater. A battery assembly has a cylindrical second outer shell carrying a battery pack. A power controller carried in the second outer shell is connected to the battery pack. A connector carriage is engaged between the battery assembly and cylindrical outer shell, extending through the shell of the battery assembly and received in the cylindrical outer shell aligned proximate a lower surface of the first outer shell whereby the lower surfaces of the first outer shell and the second outer shell are in planar alignment. A first contact set of a connector is connected to the heater control PCB. A second contact is connected to the power controller.
CONTAINER AND METHOD OF FORMING A CONTAINER
An insulating container can be configured to retain a volume of liquid, and include a canister having a first inner wall having a first end having an opening extending into an internal reservoir, and a second outer wall forming an outer shell. The opening can be sealed by a spout adapter, the spout adapter having a spout channel extending between the internal reservoir and a spout opening, smaller than the opening of the canister. The spout opening may be sealed with a cap having a magnetic top surface, and the spout adapter may be further removably coupled to a lid that may be used as a cup into which a volume of the liquid can be poured.
