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.

A portable container has a payload chamber for holding medicines, vaccines, biological samples or other medical 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 is configured 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.

A portable cooler container system is described. The cooler container system includes an insulated container body having a payload chamber, one or more sleeve portions disposed about the payload chamber and a removable base. The system further includes a cooling system including a thermoelectric module, a hot side heat sink a cold side heat sink. The portable cooler container system further includes a conduit extending through the sleeve and configured to flow a cooling fluid through the sleeve.

Garments or footwear with active temperature control include one or more heating or cooling elements, one or more batteries, and one or more power receivers. Circuitry of the garment of footwear is configured to control the delivery of power to the one or more heating or cooling elements to heat or cool one or more portions of the garment associated with the one or more heating or cooling elements.

Actively heated or cooled garments or footwear

A portable cooler container includes a container body with a payload chamber. The container body has an insulated vessel and a temperature control system that cools the payload chamber.

A cooler container kit is described. The cooler container kit includes a container body having a payload chamber, a lid, an electronic system, and one or more electrical connectors. The cooler kit further includes a conduit extending about the payload chamber. The cooler container kit further includes a temperature control system including a cold side heat sink, hot side heat sink, thermoelectric module, and a pump operable to flow a liquid relative to the cold side heat sink to cool the liquid. The cooler container kit further includes a docking unit.

A portable cooler container is provided. The temperature control system cools a chamber of the container to transport temperature sensitive contents via the container. An electronic display screen on one of the lid and the container body selectively displays an electronic shipping label for the portable cooler container.

Cooler

A portable cooler container with active temperature control, comprising: a container body having a chamber configured to receive and hold one or more containers of medicine; a lid operable to access the chamber; and a temperature control system comprising one or more thermoelectric elements configured to actively heat or cool at least a portion of the chamber, circuitry configured to control an operation of the one or more thermoelectric elements to heat or cool at least a portion of the chamber to a predetermined temperature or temperature range; and a display screen disposed on one of the container body and the lid, the display screen configured to selectively display one or more of information associated with the operation of the portable cooler, information associated with the containers of medicine in the portable cooler, information associated with scheduled taking of the containers of medicine, and advertisements.

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.

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.
