Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for super-cooling a contained fluid by exposing a portion of the contained fluid to a temperature below a freezing point of the liquid while exposing a second portion of the contained fluid to a warmer temperature. The present invention establishes a temperature differential between the ambient air or fluid temperature within the cooler and a portion of a receiving element which receives a beveraged container. By creating a temperature differential, convection flow of the beverage within the packaged beverage occurs allowing the liquid beverage to achieve a temperature below its freezing point while being maintained in a liquid state.

Claim (Index 1):
A cooler for maintaining a packaged beverage below a freezing point of the beverage and in a liquid state comprising:\n a housing defining an interior volume which is cooled to a temperature below a freezing point of a beverage: a plurality of receiving elements within the housing, each receiving element adapted for receiving a packaged beverage and positioning the beverage at about a 35 degree to about a 55 degree angle relative to a horizontal reference plane; a portion of the receiving element having a temperature which is warmer than a cooling temperature of the interior volume; wherein, the temperature differential between a portion of the receiving element and the interior volume establishes within the packaged beverage a convection flow, the convection flow allowing the beverage to be maintained at a temperature below the freezing point and in a liquid state.
