[0007]There is disclosed herein a unique beverage cooling system and method. The disclosed embodiments avoid the disadvantages of prior methods, systems and devices used to cool beverages while affording addition

Problems solved by technology

However, there are inherent problems with each of these distinct methods.
However, refrigeration ceases to be effective once a beverage is removed from the insulated chamber (e.g., refrigerator).
However, it is difficult to control a beverage temperature with ice and melting ice can significantly dilute a

Embodiment Construction

[0023]While this invention is susceptible of embodiments in many different forms, there is shown in the drawings and will herein be described in detail at least one preferred embodiment of the invention with the understanding that the present disclosure is to be considered as an exemplification of the principles of the invention and is not intended to limit the broad aspect of the invention to any of the specific embodiments illustrated.

[0024]Generally speaking, it is a goal of the invention to put into practical service a new system for use in public food and beverage facilities, such as restaurants, bars, shops, as well as private homes. The system is intended to contain multiple “cold cup” beverage holders capable of both maintaining and lowering the temperature of cold beverages. These beverage holders are to be of a self-service design within the reach of patrons. They can be “personal” cup holders built into the top of a bar, table, countertop, etc. They should be capable of a...

Abstract

An above or below surface-mounted beverage cooler and cooling system having at least one beverage holder wrapped in a cooling coil and insulated by a jacket (or any other suitable insulating product) for keeping or cooling a beverage. The cooling coil connects by piping to a condensing unit, which when operated is capable of bringing the insulated beverage holder to a desired temperature. A beverage container, such as a glass, mug, bottle or can, seated within the beverage holder is thereby cooled or at least maintained at a desired temperature. Possible installations range from small systems for home and private use to large systems for public facilities, such as restaurants, bars, banquet halls, etc. The cooling systems can be customized, pre-fabricated, provided as a DIY kit, or designed as a portable stand-alone system with multiple possible configurations.

Description

RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application claims the filing priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 055, 029, titled “In-Counter Beverage Cooling System” and filed on Sep. 25, 2014. The '029 Provisional Application is hereby incorporated by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD OF INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a system for at least maintaining beverages at a temperature below ambient. Specifically, the invention relates to being able to actually cool, as needed, the temperature of a beverage. More specifically, the invention relates to a beverage cooling system which can be mounted into or onto a counter-top.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]There are currently two basic methods in use for cooling a beverage and maintaining a chilled temperature for that beverage. That is, refrigeration and ice are known to be the most practical methods, and are used in just about every restaurant, bar and kitchen in the World. The methods are often employed differently—e.g., ref...
