`RADIANT LIQUlD HEATING CONTAINER
`
`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`
`CROSS—REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
`
`[0001]
`
`The present application claims priority under 35 USC 119 to US. Provisional
`
`Patent Application No. 60/916,434 filed on May 7, 2007 the entire contents of which are
`
`hereby incorporated by reference.
`
`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`
`Field of the Invention
`
`[0002] The present invention relates to a radiant liquid heating container wherein a base
`
`member is mounted relative to the bottom of the container with a predetermined space
`
`providing an air gap between the container and the base for maintaining a liquid disposed
`
`Within the container at a predetermined temperature.
`
`Description of Background Art
`
`[0003] Hilhertofore, a container for maintaining a liquid at a predetermined temperature is
`
`normally exposed directly to a heat source. After the liquid is heated on the heat source for a
`
`certain period of time, the liquid in the container may be burned by the direct contact of the
`
`container relative to the heat source. This is a particular problem with respect to coffee that is
`
`brewed and thereafter exposed directly to a heat source. The heat source makes point contact
`
`with the container to burn certain portions of the coffee.
`
`[0004] More specifically, a liquid product, such as coffee, is maintained in a heated condition
`
`by placing the container holding the liquid directly on a heat source, such as a burner.
`
`Normally,
`
`three points of contact are made between the container and the burner for
`
`conducting the heat of the burner to the container. At the points of contact with the burner,
`
`the container is heated to a very high temperature that results in a burning of the liquid within
`
`the container. When coffee is disposed in the container, the coffee is burned and the liquid
`
`within the container is boiled off to produce a coffee product that is not fit for consumption.
`
`[0005] In addition, a thermos may be used for storing a heated liquid. However, with time the
`
`liquid within the thermos will cool and thus become unsuitable for consumption.

`
`SUMMARY AND OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
`
`[0006] It is an object of an embodiment of the present invention to provide a radiant heater
`
`for maintaining a liquid within a container at a predetennined temperature without adversely
`
`affecting the taste of the liquid.
`
`[0007] It is another object of an embodiment of the present invention to provide a radiant
`
`heater for maintaining a liquid within a container at a predetermined temperature by
`
`displacing the container to form a gap between the container and a base member for heating
`
`the container by use of radiant heat while eliminating the point contact between the container
`
`and the burner.
`
`[0008] These and other objects of the invention are achieved by providing a radiant liquid
`
`heating container that includes a container for holding a fluid with an opening for dispensing
`
`the fluid and a closed bottom. A base member is mounted relative to the closed bottom. The
`
`base member is spaced a predetermined distance relative to the closed bottom to provide an
`
`air gap there between. The base member is exposed to a heat source wherein the base
`
`member shields the bottom of the container from being in direct contact with the heat source
`
`to provide a source of radiant heat for maintaining a liquid disposed within the container at a
`
`predetermined temperature.
`
`[0009] Further scope of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the
`
`detailed description given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed
`
`description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention,

`
`DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
`
`[0018] Fig. 1 illustrates a container 10 for holding a liquid. The container 10 includes an
`
`opening 12 for dispensing the liquid and a closed bottom 14. Figs. 2 and 3 illustrate a base
`
`member 20 for mounting relative to the container 10. The base member 20 includes an
`
`interior surface 22 with a circmnferential surface 26 and a closed bottom 24. As illustrated in
`
`Fig. 3, the interior surface may be coated with a non-reflective material 26.
`
`[0019] As illustrated in Figs. 4 and 5, the base member 20 is adapted to be mounted relative

`
`[0023] The base member 20 may be sealed relative to the container 10 for forming a water
`
`proof and air tight gap disposed between the closed bottom 14 of the container 10 and the
`
`inten'or surface 22 of the base member 20. The seal may be constructed of plastic or the seal
`
`may be a silicone seal.
`
`[0024] The base member 20 includes an outer circumferential surface 28 for engaging an
`
`outer circumferential surface 18 of the container 10 at a predetermined point 32. The
`
`predetermined point 32 is displaced upwardly from a bottom portion 24 of the base member
`
`20 to prevent spot heating of a liquid disposed within the container 10.
`
`[0025] In one embodiment of the invention, the base member 20 is removably mounted
`
`relative to the container 10 to permit removal of the base member 20 from the container 10
`
`for cleaning. In addition, spacer members 34, 36 maybe disposed between the base member
`
`20 and the container 10 for maintaining the gap there between.
`
`[0026] As illustrated in Fig. 7, the container 100 may be constructed of metal and the base
`
`member 120 may be constructed of aluminum or any other suitable metallic material.
`
`[0027] The interior surface 122 of said base member 120 is coated with a non—reflecting
`
`surface 126 for enhancing the transmission of radiant heat transmitted to the container 100.
`
`The non-reflecting surface 126 may be black paint or any material for aiding in the
`
`transmission of radiant heat to the container 100.
`
`[0028] The base member 120 may be sealed relative to the container 100 for forming a water
`
`proof and air tight gap disposed between the closed bottom 114 of the container 100 and the
`
`interior surface 122 of the base member 120. The seal may be constructed of plastic or the
`
`seal may be a silicone seal.
`
`[0029] The base member 120 includes an outer circumferential surface 128 for engaging an
`
`outer circumferential surface 118 of the container 100 at a predetermined point 132. The
`
`predetermined point 132 is displaced upwardly from a bottom portion 124 of the base
`
`member 120 to prevent spot heating of a liquid disposed within the container 100.
`
`[0030] The base member 120 illustrated in Fig. 7 may be removably mounted relative to the
`
`container 100 to permit removal of the base member 120 from the container 100 for cleaning.
`
`In addition, spacer members 134, 136 may be disposed between the base member 120 and the
`
`container 100 for maintaining the gap there between.
`
`[0031] The invention permits a liquid disposed with the container 10, 100 to be maintained at
`
`a predetermined temperature by use of radiant heat and not conductive heat. By using radiant

`
`heat to maintain a liquid such as coffee at a predetermined temperature the present invention
`
`avoids problems in the prior art wherein the coffee is burned by using conduction to heat at
`
`least three points on the bottom of the container. Normally, if conduction heat is used, the
`
`coffee would be heated to 300 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit at the three points of contact with
`
`the container which will result in a burning of the coffee located in the particular areas in the
`
`container adjacent to the three points of contact. In addition, the conduction heat applied to
`
`the container will result in a boiling off of the water in the coffee which will render the coffee
`
`unfit for consumption. The present invention avoids the problems of the prior art to provide
`
`coffee or soup that is maintained at a predetermined temperature without burning or boiling
`
`off the product to make it unacceptable for consumption.
`
`[0032] The invention being thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in
`
`many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of
`
`the invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are
`
`intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
