ABSTRACT:
A handled, open-ended, single layer, elastic and resilient thermal insulator for cylindrical beverage containers made in the form of a flat rectangular strip of foamed cross-linked polyolefin which is slightly longer than the circumference of the container to be insulated and has a pair of overlapping inter-engaging tabs at its opposite end portions and integral closed handle elements extending radially outwardly from above and below the tabs when the strip is applied to such a container. The insulator is made by a method in which a generally rectangular strip is cut from a panel of such flexible expanded thermal insulating material and, at the same time, a U-shaped cut is made in the interior of each of the opposite terminal portions of the strip to thereby produce flexible tabs, with the open end of each of the U-shaped cuts facing each other. Cooperative, interlocking engagement means such as Velcro is secured to opposite sides of the two tabs so that when overlapped, they will secure the strip in tight encircling relation to a cylindrical container, thereby causing the end portions of the strip to extend radially outwardly to cooperatively function as closed handle elements.
