Patent number: 11965679Abstract: A container with active temperature control system is provided. The active temperature control system is operated to heat or cool a chamber sized to receive a beverage therein. The container includes an insulated vessel that has the chamber and a cooling or heating unit. The cooling or heating unit includes a thermoelectric element in thermal communication with the chamber, phase change material in thermal communication with the thermoelectric element, a power storage device, and circuitry to control the operation of the thermoelectric element. The cooling or heating unit is operable to increase or decrease or maintain a temperature of the beverage in the chamber by operating the thermoelectric element to draw heat from the chamber and transfer it to the module of phase change material.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Ember Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Clayton Alexander, Rahul Mulinti, Daren John Leith, Mikko Juhani Timperi, Christopher Thomas Wakeham, Rob Lawson-Shanks

Patent number: 11950726Abstract: An actively heated drinkware container includes a vessel with a chamber that receives and holds a volume of liquid. The drinkware container includes a heating module with a first heating element operable to heat one portion of the chamber and a second heating element operable to heat another portion of the chamber, the second heating element spaced from the first heating element. Operation of the first and second heating elements generates a circulation current in the volume of liquid in the chamber that mixes the liquid and diffuses a temperature of the liquid to thereby reduce temperature stratification of the liquid in the chamber and so that a temperature of the liquid throughout the volume of liquid in the chamber is approximately uniform.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2023Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Ember Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Clayton Alexander, Daren John Leith, Mikko Juhani Timperi, Christopher Thomas Wakeham, Rahul Mulinti

Publication number: 20240060699Abstract: A portable cooler container is provided, with a payload chamber for one or more temperature sensitive or perishable goods. A cooling unit is disposed in the payload chamber. The cooling unit includes a vessel filled with a cooling material (e.g., dry ice) and closed with a lid. One or more variable apertures of the cooling unit are operable to controllably release a chilled gas (e.g., CO2 gas) generated by the cooling material into the payload chamber of the vessel to cool the payload.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2021Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Clayton Alexander, Daren John Leith, Christopher Thomas Wakeham, Mikko Juhani Timperi, Rahul Mulinti

Publication number: 20240027122Abstract: A portable container has a payload chamber for holding goods and a lid operable to access the payload chamber. The portable container also has an electronic system with one or more power storage devices, circuitry that wirelessly communicates via a cell radio with a cloud-based data storage system or a remote electronic device, and an electronic display screen. The electronic system also has a button or a touch screen configured to be actuated by a user to a) automatically switch sender and recipient information on the electronic display screen to facilitate return of the portable container to the sender or b) automatically contact a parcel carrier to alert the parcel carrier that the portable container is ready for pickup.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Clayton Alexander, Daren John Leith, Mikko Juhani Timperi, Christopher Thomas Wakeham, Rahul Mulinti, Jacob William Emmert, Paul Thomas Gurney
