Abstract

Beverage systems and kits and methods of using the same. A beverage system of the present disclosure includes a container configured to retain a beverage, the container having an outer wall and an internal threaded section above a non-threaded inner wall section; a threaded gasket having a threaded portion and an outer curved profile, the threaded portion configured to engage the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto; and a lid having an extension portion extending from a cover portion, the extension portion having a seal positioned thereon, the seal configured to engage the non-threaded inner wall section of the container when coupled thereto.

Claims (25)

1. A beverage container retainment system, comprising:

a container that is vacuum-sealed and having a bottom wall, an inner cylindrical wall extending away from the bottom wall, and a threaded section;

a gasket having a threaded element coupled to a curved element,

the threaded element comprising a first material and having a cylindrical wall that presents a flange extending away from the cylindrical wall in the same direction as but further than each of a threaded portion and an unthreaded portion of the cylindrical wall, the first material being adapted to threadably engage the threaded section and removably couple the gasket to the vacuum-sealed container,

the curved element comprising a second material different from the first material and extending from a relative top of the gasket to a relative side of the gasket, the curved element being disposed around at least a portion of the threaded element, the second material being adapted to contact at least a portion of a beverage container when the beverage container is positioned at least partially within the vacuum-sealed container; and

a size adapter removably received within the container and having a circumferential wall and a bottom planar surface wherein the size adapter is adapted to contact the vacuum-sealed container such that the bottom planar surface does not.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first material comprises a plastic material or a metal material.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second material comprises a rubber material or a polymeric material.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the inner cylindrical wall has at least a first circumference, and the circumferential wall of the size adapter has at least a second circumference that is smaller than the first circumference.

5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the gasket presents an opening that has a third circumference that is smaller than the first circumference and the second circumference.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the size adapter comprises a metal material.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the size adapter is received between the bottom wall of the container and the relative top of the gasket.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the size adapter is adapted to receive a bottom perimeter ring of the beverage container.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the size adapter includes a circumferential recessed portion to receive the bottom perimeter ring of the beverage container.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the gasket is adapted to secure the beverage container at least partially within the vacuum-sealed container when the size adapter is received within the container, the gasket is coupled to the container, and the beverage container is a 12 oz. beverage can.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the gasket is adapted to secure the beverage container at least partially within the vacuum-sealed container when the size adapter is removed from the container, the gasket is coupled to the container, and the beverage container is a 16 oz. beverage can.

12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the container is vacuum-sealed below the threaded section.

13. The system of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the curved element is disposed adjacent to the flange.

14. The system of claim 1 , wherein the container further includes an outer wall that defines a grip portion thereon.

15. A beverage container retainment system, comprising:

a container that is vacuum-sealed and having a bottom wall, an inner cylindrical wall extending away from the bottom wall, and a threaded section;

a gasket having a threaded element coupled to a curved element,

the threaded element comprising a first material and having a cylindrical wall that presents a flange extending away from the cylindrical wall in the same direction as but further than each of a threaded portion and an unthreaded portion of the cylindrical wall, the first material being adapted to threadably engage the threaded section and removably couple the gasket to the vacuum-sealed container,

the curved element comprising a second material different from the first material and extending from a relative top of the gasket to a relative side of the gasket the curved element being disposed around at least a portion of the threaded element, the second material being adapted to contact at least a portion of a beverage container when the beverage container is positioned at least partially within the vacuum-sealed container; and

a size adapter that comprises a metal material and is removably received within the vacuum-sealed container, the size adapter having a circumferential wall and a bottom planar surface, wherein the size adapter is adapted to contact the vacuum-sealed container such that the bottom planar surface does not.
