Abstract:
1. An apparatus for altering a temperature state of a liquid within a container comprising: an oval housing having a top portion, a bottom portion, and a middle portion having a front side and a rear side, the top portion having a width and a depth; a plurality of cavities positioned along the width and having substantially cylindrical openings and sized to receive a portion of a liquid container and wherein each cavity comprises a separate adjustable thermostat, said thermostats each having a control knob and operable to control a temperature setting for each cavity; heat generating electronics housed within the housing including: a heat transfer element integrated as part of each cavity, the heat transfer element operable to alter a temperature state of each cavity; a heat generator mounted within the housing and thermally coupled to the heat transfer element to collectively alter a temperature state of each cavity; a thermostat operably coupled to the heat generator to alter the temperature state of each of cavity; a speaker electronically coupled to the thermostat and operable to produce sound when the temperature state of each cavity reaches the desired temperature; and a set of power sources operably coupled to the electronics to power the electronics wherein the power sources consist of both an electrical cord and a battery.
