Embodiment Construction

[0020]Referring to FIG. 1, a particular illustrative embodiment of a cooler bag is disclosed and generally designated 100. The bag 100 includes a pair of side panels 106 where at least one pocket 114 is formed within each side panel 106. A plurality of fluid filled beads 116 are contained within the at least one pocket 114 and are visible through an outside layer of the side panels 106 to provide a distinctive appearance to the bag 100. The fluid 120 within the beads 116 is adapted to be chilled and frozen to keep contents of the bag 100 cool. The bag 100 may also include at least one baffle 108 within the side panel 106.

[0021]The bag 100 also includes a pair of end panels 112, as shown in FIG. 2, where each end panel 112 is adjacent to opposing edges of each side panel 106 to form the bag 100. The pair of end panels 112 may also include fluid filled beads similar to that of the side panels 106.

[0022]Referring now to FIGS. 3 and 4, a bottom panel 110 is used to form the rectangular ...

Abstract

A cooler bag and wrap is disclosed. In a particular embodiment, the cooler bag includes a pair of side panels and at least one pocket formed within each side panel. A plurality of fluid filled beads are contained within the pocket and are visible through an outside layer of the side panels to provide a distinctive appearance to the bag. In addition, the fluid within the beads is adapted to be frozen to keep contents of the bag cool. The bag may also include at least one baffle within the at least one pocket. The baffle helps to evenly disperse the beads and to prevent all the beads from collecting at the bottom of the bag.

Description

I. FIELD[0001]The present disclosure is generally related to a cooler bag and wrap.II. DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART[0002]The ability to maintain a desired temperature of food and beverages while transporting has been accomplished in the past through the use of various types of coolers. Typically, the coolers are fabricated using some type of insulating material so that when food and beverages are placed within the cooler, the current temperature is maintained as long as possible. There are rigid side coolers and also flexible side coolers. In addition, often times ice or ice packs are added to the inside of the coolers to help maintain the desired temperature of the food and beverages longer.[0003]A disadvantage of using ice is that when it melts it can create a wet environment within the cooler. Ice packs have a disadvantage in that they contain a liquid that is frozen solid so that the ice pack does not contour around a bottle or other contents within the cooler to provide the most ...
