Abstract
A novel thermally insulated enclosure includes an insulated wall and a magnet assembly coupled thereto for mounting the insulated enclosure to ferromagnetic structures. In a particular embodiment, the magnet assembly includes a plurality of magnets coupled to the insulated wall. In another particular embodiment, the magnet assembly is a removable magnetic device that can be connected and disconnected from the insulated enclosure. In another particular embodiment, the magnet assembly is a removable magnet carrier that can be incorporated into the structure of the insulated enclosure.
Claims20
A carrying bag, comprising:
- a first compartment including a first opening to facilitate inserting and removing items from said first compartment;
- a magnetic insert, including a substrate and a set of discrete magnets fixed to said substrate;
- and
- a second compartment, coupled to said first compartment and including a second opening configured to facilitate the insertion of said magnetic insert into said second compartment and the removal of said magnetic insert from said second compartment through said second opening;
- and wherein
- said second compartment is sized to accept said magnetic insert within said second compartment and disposed to facilitate engagement of said magnetic insert with a ferromagnetic surface outside of said carrying bag through a first wall of said second compartment.
A method of manufacturing a carrying bag, comprising:
- forming a first compartment;
- forming a first opening into said first compartment to facilitate inserting and removing items from said first compartment;
- forming a second compartment;
- coupling said first compartment and said second compartment;
- forming a second opening in said second compartment;
- providing a magnetic insert including a substrate and a set of spaced apart magnets fixed to said substrate;
- and wherein
- said second compartment is sized to accept said magnetic insert within said second compartment and disposed to facilitate engagement of said magnetic insert with a ferromagnetic surface through a first wall of said second compartment.
