  • STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT
  • Not Applicable
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Problem Solved
  • There is no need to get hands wet or cold stinging fingers from digging deep into a cooler of ice and water to retrieve beverages for rotation of stock. Furthermore, the cans/bottles that were taken out are not going to be set aside in the sandy beach, or grass or dirt from the park to collect debris and make your cooler (ice) dirty. Manually rotating stock in an ice/water filled cooler is extremely cold on your hands/fingers . . . especially larger coolers that hold 3-5 cases of drink (beer, soda, juice boxes, etc.). By using the “Cooler Web”, one can lift out the cold drinks. The “Cooler Web” supports a one-time breach of the cooler and ALL of its contents (except ice and water) and allows for no wet/cold hands and no foreign debris back into the cooler.
  • BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • A cloth netting/webbing is inserted inside a cooler, drink beverages and food are added, then ice. Once the cooler is low on items, detach the netting, then cradle products in netting (no ice or water), lift out of cooler all in one swoop, never getting hands wet or cold, and keeping product from contacting foreign material (grass, sand, dirt).
  • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PICTURES
  • See figures attached 1 through 13 showing how the “Cooler Web” supports a one-time breach of the cooler and ALL of its contents (except ice and water) and allows for no wet/cold hands and no foreign debris back into the cooler.

  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • As stated above, there is no need to get hands wet or cold stinging fingers from digging deep into a cooler of ice and water to retrieve beverages for rotation of stock. Furthermore, the cans/bottles that were taken out are not going to be set aside in the sandy beach, or grass or dirt from the park to collect debris and make your cooler (ice) dirty. The invention claimed here solves this problem.
  • As contents become consumed in a cooler, and re-stocking is necessary there is also a desire to rotate the stock (colder products back on top and freshly loaded warmer contents to be placed on the bottom). The “Cooler Web” allows for a person to disconnect the webbing from the cooler and lift it out of the cooler and cradle it holding beverages only and leaving ice and water behind. A second “Cooler Web” is inserted and the warmer beverages are now added to the cooler over the existing water/ice, the colder beverages are then placed on top and another bag of ice is added.
  • The claimed invention differs from what currently exists. The only way to rotate stock in an ice cooler is manually (getting hands cold) and possibly getting food/drink products dirty when set aside. The “Cooler Web” removes consumables from cooler without getting hands wet and keeps products dirt free. This invention is an improvement on what currently exists. The only way to rotate stock in an ice cooler is manually (getting hands cold) and possibly getting food/drink products dirty when set aside. The “Cooler Web” removes consumables from cooler without getting hands wet and keeps products dirt free. In larger coolers, there are routinely 18-24 cans that would need to be rotated to the top of the cooler (which means reaching into ice water 18 to 24 times).
  • By using the “Cooler Web”, one can lift out the cold drinks. The “Cooler Web” supports a one-time breach of the cooler and ALL of its contents (except ice and water) and allows for no wet/cold hands and no foreign debris back into the cooler.

Claims (1)

1. The subject matter includes various cooler sizes, 4 plastic hooks, and a webbing appropriately sized for the applicable cooler.
(1) Various cooler sizes
(2) 4 plastic clips/hooks
(3) Various webbing sizes
The (1) cooler requires (2) plastic clips or hooks [quantity of four], attached to the upper inside corners of the cooler and are used to support hanging the (3) webbing inside the cooler. Insert webbing into cooler and attach to 4 plastic hooks mounted inside cooler on upper corners. Add contents (beverages) into cooler over webbing and add ice. As contents become consumed and re-stocking is necessary, there is also a desire to rotate the stock (colder products back on top and freshly loaded warmer products to be placed on the bottom). The “Cooler Web” allows for a person to disconnect the webbing from the cooler and lift it out of the cooler . . . holding beverages only . . . and leaving ice and water behind. A second “Cooler Web” is inserted in the cooler and the warmer beverages are now added to the cooler over the existing water/ice, the colder beverages are then placed on top and another bag of ice is added.
