Definitions

  • the Invention pertains to receptacles, and, more particularly to receptacles for serving cold liquids and ice simultaneously without mixture of the two components.
  • the invention consists of a first part, containing an opening in which a liquid can be served, and a second part in which ice can be temporarily stored.
  • the two parts are separated by a thin wall, which is heat conducting. This formation has the ability of cooling a liquid in one part by ice stored in the second part, without mixture of the two components. This mixture would result in taste and quality diminishment for both components.
  • This invention provides a liquid, spirits such as eau-de-vis, ,jenever, vodka and the like ,in particular, to be served cold and maintain its cool temperature during consumption, due to the heat-conducting ability of the consumable ice ,stored in the other part of the receptacle.
  • the consuming ice such as sorbet or soft ice, is, due to the formation of the receptacle, to be consumed after consumption of the liquid.
  • these receptacles need to be stored some time in a freezing atmosphere. In many cases this can create a storage problem.
  • This invention has the purpose of creating a receptacle that is easy to manufacture.
  • the invention contains two open reservoirs .Open reservoirs are certainly easier to produce then closed reservoirs. Besides is it not necessary to fill one reservoir with cooling liquid during fabrication. That is because with open reservoirs the substance can be brought in and removed instantly. Open reservoirs are less liable to created tensions characteristic to expanding substances while being cooled down. These two reservoirs are separated by a common wall. This wall is preferably relatively thin. Creating a thin wall is advantageous for maximising the conducting of temperature between the two substances.
  • Another characteristic of the receptacle according to the invention is that the two reservoirs are symmetrical, the earlier mentioned wall functioning as the centre line.
  • Another characteristic of the invention is the presence of an avowed rim on the inner side of the reservoir that is meant to be filled with the cooling substance.
  • This rim prevents the cooling substance to fall out of the glass while melting. Besides that does the rim provide a gutter for the melting ice. This prevents dripping while drinking the liquid from the other reservoir.
  • the first part 1 is draft for the temporarily storage of consumable liquid. Therefore the first part has an opening 4 through which the liquid can be poured in .
  • the opening has a rim on which the consumer puts his lips when consuming the liquid.
  • the second part 2 is designed for the temporarily storage of consumable ice, such as sorbet or ice cream, or any other substance that has the ability of cooling a liquid or any other consumable substance present in the first reservoir.
  • the first and second part are separated by a wall 3.
  • This wall can be made out of the same material as the rest of the receptacle, or out of any other material that can easily conduct heat.
  • the two parts are then combined through this wall.
  • the wall is preferably not too thick. A thick wall would diminish the heat conduction ability. This results in a formation by which the first reservoir is to be refrigerated by the substance in the second reservoir without the chance of mixture of those two components.
  • the second reservoir has an opening through which the cooling substance can be brought in.
  • An avowed rim 6 fabricated at the opening of the second reservoir prevents the substance located in this second part to fall out when it starts melting.
  • the rim is proportional to the glass in such a way that the cooling substance can not fall out of the glass when it starts melting, but can easily be reached by a spoon for consumption.
  • the rim has an oblique surface 7 in such a way that it acts as a gutter that prevents the melting water located in the second reservoir from dripping out. This can occur while turning slightly the receptacle for better consuming of the liquid in the first reservoir.
  • the fabrication of a rim results in an open reservoir that can be easily cleaned and wiped.
  • the second reservoir will be filled using the opening 5 with cooling substance such as ice.
  • the receptacle is turned upside down.
  • the opening 4 which can now be reached, is used for the filling of the first reservoir with any suitable liquid.
  • the liquid immediately starts refrigerating and preserves its coolness while consuming. This is due to the heat conducting ability between the two components through the wall of the receptacle.
  • the object can be turned upside down .
  • the consuming cooling substance which is still in the second reservoir can now be consumed by using the opening 5. For doing so a little spoon such as a tea spoon can be used.
  • a little spoon such as a tea spoon can be used.
  • it can also be filled with any liquid and then temporarily stored in a freezing device to form ice.
  • the cooling substance can expand while forming ice without causing negative tension on the wall of the receptacle.
  • An indication mark can be engraved for preventing overfilling.
  • a receptacle as shown in figure 1 contains two cones attached head to head. It is preferable that the two reservoirs have approximately the same size, this benefits the stability of the receptacle and is beneficial to the proportional amount of liquid that has to be cooled by the same amount of cooling substance. Moreover are similar symmetrical objects easier to manufacture. Finally, cylindrical and conical forms have the property of coping with tensions due to expanding substances by canalising them upwards.
