Abstract:

A thermal insulating bowl or container which is for keeping the original temperature of the food or beverage contained therein. The thermal insulating container is to prevent heat transfer from occurring by radiation, convection and conduction. This is achieved by having the container with a double-wall structure. The gap between the walls is a vacuum or partial vacuum cavity which encompasses both the sidewalls and the bottom of the container. The cavity may be partially filled with gas such carbon dioxide (CO. sub. 2) or dry nitrogen N. sub. 2. By having this vacuumed or partially gas filled, food and beverage kept in the container can remain warm or cold for an extended period of time.

Abstract:

A suspending ornament that is designed primarily for Christmas trees that is composed of a sheet material member that is wound on a core member. The core member is to be adjustable in length and when shortened produces a tubular configuration of the sheet material. The sheet material member includes a mass of slits which produces an attractive stringy type of appearance when in the tubular configuration. The sheet material member should be designed to be colorful. There may be mounted on the core member a decoration which would be observable through the slits of the tubular configuration of the sheet material member changing the tubular configuration to a globular configuration.
