ABSTRACT:
An improved beverage container holder manufactured by a process including the steps of providing a cylindrical outer cup of foam material and press fitting a cylindrical inner cup within the outer cup after filling the annulus formed therebetween with a refreezable fluid. The cylindrical inner cup includes a radially extending flanged region at the open end which comprises an inwardly and downwardly tapered rib circumferentially disposed about the cup for engaging and becoming embedded within the side walls of the cylindrical outer cup to form a cylindrical seal therearound. A resilient outer ring means is snapped over the juncture between the respective open ends of the inner and outer cup to secure the seal therebetween. The refreezable fluid contained therein is preferably bled of excess pressure imparted during the assembly insertion of the inner cup into the fluid containing outer cup by squeezing an intermediate portion of the assembled cup configuration to force excess fluid and/or air through the interface between the inner and outer cup juncture prior to receiving the outer ring thereover. In this manner, excess pressure is not retained within the assembled structure.
