ABSTRACT:
A self-contained portable storage container styled in the form of a hollow attache case and characterized by an ability to maintain a plurality of objects contained therein at a desired cool temperature for relatively long periods of time, including a pair of symmetrical container halves, each half having an upper end, a lower end, two sides, and a plurality of internal recesses, so that in a closed position, the recesses of one half mate with the recesses of the other half to form cavities of predetermined sizes and shapes which are adapted to receive the objects in the cavities. Flexible straps connect the lower ends of the two halves together. Latches are provided at the upper ends of the two halves to hold them in closed position against each other. Each half has an outer wall and an inner wall spaced from the other wall so as to form a chamber for receiving a freezable liquid therein, the inner wall being connected to the outer wall along a plurality of spaced longitudinal ridges dividing the chamber into a plurality of longitudinal channels, each of the ridges being provided with a plurality of transverse passageways connecting the channels together so that a freezable liquid can flow from one channel to the next channel. Closeable openings are provided in each container half for introducing a freezable liquid into each chamber. The storage container is also provided with handles at the upper ends and raised feet at the lower ends so that the attache case can be supported on its own in an upright position.
