Abstract: A coffee server for serving brewed coffee is insulated with a partial vacuum pulled in a void (36) between the walls of an outer vessel (20) and an inner vessel (32). The outer and inner vessels are fabricated of metal and have a top narrow neck opening (22) and (34) that are attached together with a hermetic seal (42). The partial vacuum is for minimizing heat loss conducted through the combined vessels permitting coffee placed inside to retain its useable heat content for at least six hours without additional heat being added. A pour spout neck (44) is fitted to the vessel necks and provides a liquid flow path when the server is tilted to pour coffee that is stored inside. An offset brew though stopper (52) including a hinged cover (58), is removably attached to the pour spout neck with the cover pivoted to permit coffee from a brewer to enter the server through an offset portion of the stopper during the filling process.

Abstract: A multi-layer container is constructed to include a transparent outer container body, the outer container body having a bottom center through hole and multiple peripheral through holes and an opaque design printed on an outer surface thereof, an inner container body mounted inside the outer container body, the inner container body having an opaque design printed on an outer surface thereof, and a transparent plastic lining filled up the gap in between the outer container body and the inner container body and the holes of the outer container body.

Abstract: The present invention is a container assembly that includes an inner tube formed from a plastic that is substantially inert to bodily fluids and an outer tube that is formed from a different plastic. Collectively, the container assembly is useful for providing an effective barrier against gas and water permeability in the assembly and for extending the shelf-life of the container assembly, especially when used for blood collection.

Abstract: A bottle with thermally shielded body, comprising a first component (13) which forms a tubular internal body (11) having a closed bottom (12), an upper neck with an opening for filling and pouring a beverage, and, between the body and the neck, an annular region (15) for coupling to the upper edge of a second component which is coaxial to the first one and forms an external tubular body (17) which has a closed bottom (19) and forms an interspace (20) together with the tubular body of the first component.
