Container and warmer for wipes and the like

A mobile warmer for wipes and the like including in combination:

• a) a container having a stiff opening arrangement which may be opened to insert said wipes into said container or remove said wipes from said container;
• b) a renewable energy source attached or integral to said container, said energy source including a container storing fuel in a fluid or gas form;
• c) a heat source attached or integral to said container and providing heat in response to said fuel;
• d) a heat control attached or integral to said container and operative to control the temperature of said wipes inside said container within a range of temperatures by regulating the amount of said fuel consumed thereby and thus the amount of heat produced by said heat source of c).

A portable warmer for wipes and the like including in combination:

• a) a container having a rigid or semi-rigid opening arrangement which may be opened to insert said wipes into said container or remove said wipes from said container;
• b) a renewable energy source attached or integral to said container said energy source including a container storing exothermic fuel;
• c) a heat source attached or integral to said container and providing heat in response to said fuel;
• d) a heat control attached or integral to said container and operative to control the temperature of said wipes inside said container within a range of temperatures by regulating said fuel consumed thereby and thus the amount of heat produced by said heat source of c).

A method of portably storing and warming wipes and the like including the steps of:

• a) providing a container for storing said wipes, said container having an opening arrangement which may be opened to insert said wipes into said container or remove said wipes from said container;
• b) providing a renewable energy source attached or integral to said container for storing energy in gaseous, liquid, or or chemical form;
• c) providing a heat source attached or integral to said container and operative to convert energy from said energy source to provide heat;
• d) controlling the amount of heat provided in step c) to maintain the temperature of said wipes in said container within a range of temperatures by sensing the temperature of said wipes inside said container and regulating the amount of heat produced by said heat source of step c).

A method for storing and warming wipes and the like including the steps of:

• a) placing said wipes in a container having a stiff opening arrangement which may be opened to remove said wipes therefrom;
• b) providing stored energy via a portable renewable energy source which includes a container for storing fuel in a fluid or gas form;
• c) converting said fuel from step b) to heat;
• d) sensing the temperature of said wipes and controlling the heat produced in step c) to maintain said temperature within a range of temperatures.

A method of providing heated wipes while traveling including the steps of:

• a) providing said wipes in a portable container having a stiff opening arrangement which may be opened to remove said wipes from said container;
• b) providing exothermic fuel stored in a removable fuel container;
• c) heating said wipes by chemical reaction of said fuel;
• d) controlling the temperature of said wipes within a range by sensing the temperature thereof and in response thereto controlling the amount of said heat produced in step c).
