Definitions

  • the present invention to a device for cooling beverages contained swithin a drinking vessel.
  • US Patent No. 4,325,230 attempts to overcome the above-mentioned problems by providing a device comprising a sealable cubic housing, into which an ice cube can be placed.
  • a device comprising a sealable cubic housing, into which an ice cube can be placed.
  • one or more of such devices can be frozen and then added to drinks.
  • the ice is contained inside the housing and thus does not contaminate or dilute the beverage as it melts.
  • the device can be washed and reused.
  • the body of water is permanently sealed inside the housing and the device itself is frozen prior to use.
  • the body portion cools the beverage yet does not dilute the beverage because it is insoluble.
  • the vessel-engaging portion securely fastens the device in-situ on the vessel and thus the risk of accidentally swallowing the device is avoided.
  • the body portion comprises a liquid or gel contained within a sealed housing, the liquid or gel being arranged to absorb heat from the beverage, so as to provide a cooling effect.
  • the housing may comprise a closure, which can be opened to allow an ice cube to be inserted into a compartment provided inside the housing.
  • the liquid or gel is permanently sealed inside the housing, the user having to freeze the device prior to use.
  • the housing may contain water, although it preferably contains a material, such us ethylene or propylene glycol, which turns from its solid to liquid phase at a temperature below the freezing temperature of water: the latent heat absorbed my such materials as they change from their solid to liquid phases acts to disproportionately cool the beverage.
  • a material such us ethylene or propylene glycol
  • the container may comprise materials, such as water and ammonium chloride, which are arranged to endothermically react and absorb heat.
  • materials such as water and ammonium chloride, which are arranged to endothermically react and absorb heat.
  • Such devices may be single use or it may be possible to reverse the endothermic reaction, so that they can be used again.
  • the clip comprises means, which are arranged to engage the vessel at respective circumferentially spaced apart positions: this helps to prevent lateral movement of the arm and maintains the position of the body portion within the vessel.
  • a beverage cooling device comprising a body portion 10 having a spherical housing of plastics material, which is filled with a mixture of water and propylene glycol, being a material which freezes at a temperature below that of water.
  • the housing could be of any other shape and could be filled with water or any other suitable material.
  • An articulated arm 11 extends from the body portion 10 and comprises a plurality of rigid section 12, which are connected end-to-end by flexible joint portions 13. The outermost , section of the arm 11 is folded back on itself to define a C-shaped clip 14 for engaging the rim of a drinking vessel.
  • the outer arm of the C-shaped clip 14 is connected to the central portion of an elongate bracing device 15, which extends generally perpendicular to the arms of the C-shaped clip 14.
  • the opposite ends of the bracing portion 15 are connected to the central portion thereof by respective flexible joints 16.
  • the device in use the device is taken from a freezer and clipped onto the rim of a drinking vessel, such that the arm 11 extends into the drinking vessel to hold the body portion 10 near the bottom of the vessel.
  • the opposite ends oaf the bracing portion 15 extend in opposite circumferential directions against the outside surface of the drinking vessel to prevent lateral movement of the arm 11.
  • Teeth or elastomeric gripping members 17 are preferably provided on the opposed faces of the arms of the C-shaped clip 14, in order to securely grip the rim of the drinking vessel.
  • the frozen material inside the housing of the body portion 10 absorbs heat from the beverage contained in the drinking vessel, so as to cool the beverage. If desired, a plurality of devices may be attached to the vessel.
  • a device in accordance with this invention is simple and inexpensive in construction, yet provides, a safe and reliable way of chilling beverages.
