Benefits of technology

The patent describes a cooling pack for beverage containers that includes a flexible membrane, a cooling gel, and a plurality of dowls. The flexible membrane has two edges and a front surface and a rear surface. The cooling gel is placed inside the membrane and the dowls run from the bottom edge to the top edge. The cooling pack is placed in a cooler and the beverage containers are placed on top of the membrane, between the dowls. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a convenient and effective way to cool beverage containers quickly and efficiently.

Problems solved by technology

Ice bags for coolers are costly with recurring use, bulky, and do not efficiently and quickly cool cans / bottles.
Most of the ice does not come in direct contact with the can / bottles, thus not allowing for the most effective cooling.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]The following detailed description is of the best currently contemplated modes of carrying out exemplary embodiments of the invention. The description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention, since the scope of the invention is best defined by the appended claims.

[0015]Broadly, an embodiment of the present invention is a preset frozen gel pack that forms around each can / bottle and allows direct contact with each can / bottle for a quicker cooling. The packs are materially lighter, and reusable compared to traditional ice. Thus, the packs can be used when bagged ice is not readily available. The packs are reusable and provide a colder can in a more cost-effective way. The pack further allows more room in recreational coolers than typical ice. Over the long term, the cost of purchasing new ice far exceeds the price of an equivalent set of ice packs to quickly cool the same amount of product....

Abstract

A cooling pack including a flexible membrane defining an internal compartment. The cooling pack has an elongated shape having a first side edge, a second side edge, a top edge, a bottom edge, a front surface, and a rear surface. A cooling gel is disposed within the internal compartment of the flexible membrane. A plurality of dowels are disposed within the internal compartment. The plurality of dowels extend from the bottom edge to the top edge.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of priority of U.S. provisional application No. 62 / 598,124, filed Dec. 13, 2017, the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The current invention relates to beverage coolers, and more particularly, to a refrigerated pack to efficiently cool cans and bottles.[0003]Ice bags for coolers are costly with recurring use, bulky, and do not efficiently and quickly cool cans / bottles. Most of the ice does not come in direct contact with the can / bottles, thus not allowing for the most effective cooling.[0004]There exists a need for a more efficient beverage cooling device which cools the beverages quickly, is lightweight, and is easily storable.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0005]In one aspect of the present invention, a cooling pack comprises: a flexible membrane defining an internal compartment and comprising an elongated shape having a first side edge, a second side edge...
