Dependent claims

An insulated bag assembly comprising:

an insulated bag, the insulated bag comprising a pair of opposing main panels, a pair of opposing side panels, and a pair of wings, each wing of the pair of wings attached to a different side panel of the pair of side panels, the main panels and the side panels defined in an insulated blank, the pair of wings respectively defined by a pair of wing portions of the insulated blank, the insulated blank comprising an insulation batt, a first sheet, and a second sheet, the insulation batt encapsulated in a blank cavity defined between the first sheet and the second sheet, a blank border extending around a perimeter of the insulated blank, the blank border defined by a perimeter portion of the first sheet being in facing engagement with a perimeter portion of the second sheet, the blank border encompassing the blank cavity and defining an insulated portion of the insulated blank, the insulated bag defining a top end and a bottom end, the top end distal from the bottom end, the insulated bag defining a bag cavity with a bag opening positioned at the top end, a bottom panel positioned at the bottom end, the bottom panel comprising a first bottom subpanel and a second bottom subpanel, the first bottom subpanel joined to the second bottom subpanel by a bottom seam, the bottom seam attaching a first portion of the blank border to a second portion of the blank border, the first bottom subpanel attached to a first main panel of the pair of opposing main panels, the second bottom subpanel attached to a second main panel of the pair of opposing main panels, each wing positioned between the bottom panel and a different one of the pair of side panels;
and
an insulated panel, the insulated panel positioned within the bag cavity, the insulated panel forming a seal with the insulated bag.

An insulated bag comprising:

a pair of opposing main panels, the insulated bag defining a bag cavity within the insulated bag, the insulated bag defining a bag opening to the bag cavity, the bag opening disposed at a top end of the insulated bag;
a pair of opposing side panels attached to the pair of opposing main panels;
a bottom panel comprising a first bottom subpanel and a second bottom subpanel, the first bottom subpanel attached to a first main panel of the pair of opposing main panels at a bottom end of the insulated bag, the second bottom subpanel attached to a second main panel of the pair of opposing main panels at the bottom end of the insulated bag;
and
a pair of wings comprising a first wing and a second wing, the first wing positioned between the bottom panel and a first side panel of the pair of opposing side panels, the first wing attached to a first side panel of the pair of side panels, the second wing positioned between the bottom panel and a second side panel of the pair of opposing side panels, the second wing attached to a second side panel of the pair of side panels;
the main panels, the side panels, the first bottom subpanel, the second bottom subpanel, and the pair of wings defined in an insulated blank, the pair wings respectively defined by a pair of wing portions of the insulated blank, the insulated blank comprising:
a first sheet;
a second sheet, the second sheet attached to the first sheet by a blank border, the blank border extending around a perimeter of the insulated blank, the blank border enclosing a blank cavity defined between the first sheet and the second sheet, the blank border comprising a bottom border extending along the first bottom subpanel and the second bottom subpanel, a portion of the blank border defined by the first bottom subpanel being attached to an opposing portion of the blank border defined by the second bottom subpanel to form a bottom seam, the bottom seam attaching the first bottom subpanel to the second bottom subpanel to form the bottom panel of the insulated bag;
and
an insulation batt positioned within the blank cavity.
