A circular elongated plastic container and a circular elongated foam insulator are provided, wherein the plastic container is placed inside the foam insulator. The portable plastic container can retain up to a gallon of frozen water within, wherein the liquid remains fully contained. The plastic container comprises a length of twelve inches and a circumference of seven inches. A further embodiment includes a three-inch central hollow compartment, this hollow center cavity is positioned to facilitate the upward flow of cool air creating a vortex effect within. Further, a second embodiment; a foam insulator comprising of twelve inches in length and a circumference of nine inches. The foam insulator encases and protects the plastic container against heat and transport. The frozen plastic container and the foam insulator are configured to maintain cans, plastic bottles and perishables cooler for longer periods during use.
As I have described in conclusion the combination of the plastic frozen barrel 12 inches of length by 9 inches in circumference (which includes the 3 inch hollow compartment, the 7 inch circumference of frozen water, and the 1 inch thickness of foam insulator) will allow the user to maintain any canned or plastic bottle drink cool while doing outdoor activities such as golfing, a day at the beach or a day of camping. The combination of the frozen barrel, a 1 inch thick foam insulator and a carry on pouch (any on the market will do) emphasizes the “invention”. On the other hand many current portable coolers on the market require ice cubes which melt at a faster rate but the barrel maintains a slow thawing process with up to a gallon of frozen water inside which will give the user many hours of enjoying cool drinks even at high summer temperatures.
The current portable coolers on the market are designed for the need of fast melting ice or small frozen gel packages, such small packages are somewhat ineffective at maintaining a “constant cooling source” on the other hand the barrel has enough frozen water inside (up to a gallon of frozen water) which allows it many hours of cooling enjoyment without the need of slow cooling ice and frozen gel packages.
The invention is designed to perform at high summer temperatures. Maintaining cans and plastic bottles continuously cool for many hours of enjoyment.
