A receptacle device for carrying food and beverage products is disclosed having a housing with a cavity therein and a cover detachably mounted on the housing. An outer chamber is provided with mounting means for removably retaining the outer chamber within the cavity. An inner chamber is also provided, and the inner chamber is adapted to be received within the outer chamber in telescopic relation thereto for defining a fluid chamber therebetween. Alignment means for maintaining the inner chamber and the outer chamber in fixed spatial relationship to each other for defining the fluid chamber therebetween is provided as well as a plurality of open-top food storage containers adapted to be received within the inner chamber and having a removable lid associated with each one of the containers. Closure means is operatively connected to the cover for yielding urging the containers in confined relationship within the inner chamber, and the inner chamber in removably fixed relationship to the housing. A tray adapted to be electrically powered is provided with supporting means in the cavity for removably retaining the tray in a substantially horizontal plane, with the tray providing a source of heat to elevate the temperature of the liquid in the fluid chamber.

A receptacle device for carrying food and beverage products, comprising: A. a housing formed generally of a rigid insulative material and having a cavity therein, B. said housing being defined by connected side, end and bottom walls, including upper ends, which together form an endless upper margin
A receptacle device for carrying food and beverage products, comprising: A. a housing formed generally of a rigid insulative material and having a cavity therein, B. said housing being defined by connected side, end and bottom walls, including upper ends, which together form an endless upper margin defining an open top of said cavity of said housing, C. a cover detachably mounted on said housing over said upper margin to enclose said cavity, D. coupling means for removably securing said cover to said housing so as to gain access to said cavity as desired, E. an outer chamber defined by connected side, end and bottom panels, including an upper edge having a rim extending outwardly therefrom, F. mounting means for removably retaining said outer chamber within said cavity, G. an inner chamber defined by connected side, end, and bottom plates, including an upper end and an upper lip, H. said inner chamber received within said outer chamber in telescopic relation thereto for defining a fluid chamber intermediate said oppositely disposed spaced apart sides, ends and bottoms of said inner chamber and said outer chamber, respectively, with said upper lip adapted to extend in overlapping relationship to said rim, I. alignment means for maintaining said inner chamber and said outer chamber in fixed spatial relationship to each other for defining said fluid chamber therebetween, J. a plurality of open-top food storage containers adapted to be received within said inner chamber and having a removable lid associated with each one of said containers, K. closure means operatively connected to said cover for yieldably urging said containers in confined relationship within said inner chamber, and said inner chamber being in removably fixed relationship to said housing, L. said closure means including: (1) a closure plate, and (2) spring means extending between said cover and said closure plate such that said closure plate is maintained in a horizontal plane so as to compress said lids on said containers when said cover is positioned on said housing, M. an electrically heated tray having resistive element, N. supporting means in said cavity for removably retaining said tray in a substantially horizontal plane intermediate said bottom wall of said housing and said bottom panel of said outer chamber so as to prevent lateral movement thereof, O. an electrical socket mounted on one of said walls of said housing for connection to a source of electrical energy and for connection to said tray, said tray providing a source of heat to elevate the temperature of the liquid in said fluid chamber, P. said alignment means includes: (1) a clamping member mounted to said cover and having an outer flange for engaging said upper lip and compressing same towards said rim, and (2) said spring means extends between said clamping member and said closure plate, Q. sealing means extending between said rim and said upper lip to maintain said fluid chamber liquid tight, and R. said supporting means includes: (1) a plurality of legs on said tray, and (2) a plurality of pockets contained on said bottom wall in aligned relationship to said legs such that mating therebetween is obtained so as to prevent the lateral movement therebetween.
