ABSTRACT:
Cooling arrangements are provided for cooling beverage containers of a multi-container package. In one embodiment, a cooling device consists solely of a shaped, generally planar slab of ice including a surface for directly engaging and supporting the bottoms of the beverage containers of the package. This surface includes a plurality of recesses therein in which the bottoms of the beverage containers are received. The device is carried in a plastic bag, and an elevating member positioned therebeneath defines a space in which water from the melting ice can collect. In another embodiment, the upper surface of a shaped slab of ice defines a pair of inclined planes which slant down from a central region and which include semi-cylindrical recesses therein in which the sides of beverage containers are received. In a further embodiment, a cooling receptacle is formed by freezing a slab of ice within a bag, the slab of ice having incorporated therein a plurality of gripping loops for holding the containers in contact with the surface of the ice slab and an anchoring arrangement embedded in the ice slab for supporting the gripping loops in spaced relation to the slab.
