Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to coolers for food, beverages and the like, and particularly to a cylindrical cooler having liquid drainage passages defined in a base thereof.
- Coolers for holding beverages or other food items desired to be kept cool are well known. Coolers are manufactured in a variety of sizes and shapes and are made from a wide variety of insulating materials, such as foam or resilient polystyrene plastic. Coolers are commonly filled with ice in order to cool beverages or other items or to maintain the cool temperature of those items. Over time, however, the ice melts, resulting in ever-increasing volumes of liquid water contained in the cooler. Although coolers with side drainage ports are common, such coolers can only drain liquids above the height of the port. Draining any additional liquids requires the user to tip or angle the cooler, which is often quite heavy and burdensome. Thus, a cylindrical cooler solving the aforementioned problems is desired.
- The cylindrical cooler is an insulated, bucket-type cooler for storing and transporting cans, bottles and the like. The cylindrical cooler includes a thermally insulating receptacle having a base, a cylindrical sidewall and an open upper end. A drainage port is formed centrally through the base, and a circular rim is formed about an upper end of the cylindrical sidewall, defining the open upper end of the thermally insulating receptacle. A thermally insulating lid is pivotally secured to the cylindrical sidewall by a hinge mounted on the circular rim.
- A latch is positioned diametrically opposite the hinge for selectively locking the thermally insulating lid in a closed configuration for selectively covering and sealing the open upper end of the thermally insulating receptacle. The latch includes an engaging member having opposed first and second ends, with the first end thereof being pivotally secured to the thermally insulating lid, and the second end thereof defining a grasping member for engaging a user's hand, allowing the user to engage and disengage the latch single handedly. The engaging member of the latch is selectively received within a receiving passage defined in the circular rim for releasable frictional engagement therewith. The cooler includes a plurality of feet to elevate the base above a horizontal support surface upon which the cooler is positioned. Adjacent ones of the feet are spaced apart with respect to one another to define drainage passages therebetween.
- These and other features of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
FIG. 1 is an environmental, perspective view of a cylindrical cooler according to the present invention.FIG. 2 is a top perspective view of the cylindrical cooler according to the present invention.FIG. 3 is a bottom perspective view of the cylindrical cooler according to the present invention.FIG. 4 is a side view in section of the cylindrical cooler according to the present invention.- Similar reference characters denote corresponding features consistently throughout the attached drawings.
- As shown in
FIGS. 1-4 , thecylindrical cooler 10 is an insulated, bucket-type cooler for storing and transporting cans C, bottles and the like. Thecylindrical cooler 10 includes a thermallyinsulating receptacle 12 having abase 26, acylindrical sidewall 14 and an openupper end 18. The thermallyinsulating receptacle 12 defines an openinterior region 16 for receiving any desired cans C, bottles, food or the like which the user wishes to store and/or transport. It should be understood that cans C shown inFIG. 1 are shown for exemplary purposes only, and that the relative dimensions of thermallyinsulating receptacle 12 are also shown for exemplary purposes only.Cylindrical cooler 10 may be produced in a variety of sizes dependent upon the type and number of items the user desires to store and/or transport therein. The thermallyinsulating receptacle 12 can be formed from foam, a resilient polystyrene plastic, and/or other insulating materials. - As best shown in
FIGS. 3 and 4 , adrainage port 40 is formed centrally through thebase 26, allowing selective drainage of water from melting ice, for example.Drainage port 40 is selectively sealed by aplug 36, which may threadedly engagedrainage port 40, as shown, and may be releasably secured in a fluid-tight manner with anadditional gasket 38 or the like. Thecooler 10 includes a plurality offeet 28 to elevate the base above a horizontal support surface upon which thecooler 10 is positioned. Thefeet 28 can include a rubber material to prevent thecooler 10 from moving or sliding on the support surface. As best seen inFIG. 3 , adjacent ones of thefeet 28 are spaced apart with respect to one another to definedrainage passages 30 therebetween. Thus, when theplug 36 is removed fromdrainage port 40 to drain liquid from within the thermallyinsulating receptacle 12, the liquid is free to flow throughdrainage passages 30, even whenbase 26 rests on a support surface S (as inFIG. 1 ), such as a table, the ground, etc. Although four feet28 (and four corresponding drainage passages30) are shown inFIG. 3 , it should be understood that any desired number offeet 28 may extend from the cylindrical wall and/or the underside of thebase 26. - A
handle 24 is preferably pivotally secured tocylindrical sidewall 14 for ease of carrying and transport of thecylindrical cooler 10. In an embodiment, the handle can include a metal core, e.g., a stainless steel core, and a foam or other soft covering surrounding at least a portion of the metal core. Acircular rim 36 is preferably formed about an upper end of thecylindrical sidewall 14, as best shown inFIG. 1 . Thecircular rim 36 defines theupper end 18 of the thermallyinsulating receptacle 12. As shown inFIGS. 1-3 , one ormore side rods 22, e.g., a pair ofside rods 22, may be mounted on thecircular rim 36 for engagement with an external strap, harness or the like, providing the user with additional carrying options for thecylindrical cooler 10. - A thermally insulating
lid 20 is further pivotally secured to thecylindrical sidewall 14 by ahinge 32 mounted oncircular rim 36. Alatch 34 is positioned diametrically opposite thehinge 32 for selectively locking the thermallyinsulating lid 20 in a closed configuration, as shown inFIG. 2 , after thelid 20 selectively covers and seals the openupper end 18 of the thermallyinsulating receptacle 12. Thelatch 34 includes anengaging member 42 having opposed first and second ends,44,46, respectively, with thefirst end 44 being pivotally secured to the thermally insulatinglid 20, and thesecond end 46 defining a grasping member for engaging the user's hand, allowing the user to engage and disengage thelatch 34 single handedly. As shown inFIGS. 2 and 3 , theengaging member 42 of thelatch 34 is selectively received within a receivingpassage 48 defined in thecircular rim 36 for releasable frictional engagement therewith. Thelid 20 may further include a seating pad orcushion 49 to provide a comfortable support surface upon which a user may sit. - As noted above, it should be understood that the relative dimensions of
cylindrical cooler 10 are shown for exemplary purposes only.Cylindrical cooler 10 may be produced in a variety of sizes dependent upon the type and number of items the user desires to store and/or transport therein. Further, it should be understood that additional elements may be provided withcylindrical cooler 10, such asbottle opener 50, shown mounted tocylindrical sidewall 14, or the like. - It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims.
