Device for cooling or frosting a container

Abstract

The invention relates to a device (1) for cooling or frosting at least one container (2), in particular a glass or mug, by means of cold air, the device (1) comprising a base (4) with a container receiving portion (3), at least one air inlet (5) and an annular chamber (7), whereby the container receiving portion (3) is comprised with the at least one air inlet (5) through which cold air may be introduced into the annular chamber (7), wherein the container receiving portion (3) comprises an air outlet portion (10) comprising a pipe (9) extending upwards into the at least one container (2), the pipe (9) being configured to suck the air out of the at least one container (2). The at least one air inlet (5) is positioned at an outer circumference of the annular chamber (7) so as to introduce the air into the annular chamber (7) tangentially, thereby generating a swirling upward air flow which is led as a thin layer along the inner surface of the at least one container (2) being placed on the container receiving portion (3), thereby cooling or frosting the container (2).
