Device for cooling substances
First Claim
1. A device for cooling substances, said device comprising a body, said body comprising an upper housing and a lower housing, wherein the upper housing and the lower housing are configured such that the upper housing and the lower housing can be attached to and detached from each other, wherein the lower housing has a compartment disposed within the lower housing, said compartment being accessible when the upper housing is detached from the lower housing, and said compartment being sealed closed when the upper housing is attached to the lower housing, said lower housing having a cavity disposed within the lower housing, wherein the cavity at least partially surrounds the compartment, and wherein the body has an injection port configured such that a fluid can be injected into the cavity from outside the body via the injection port, wherein the lower housing comprises two opposing buttons disposed on opposite sides of the compartment, wherein the buttons are configured to compress the compartment when the buttons are pressed toward each other.

Abstract
A device for cooling a substance stored within the device has a body with an internal compartment for holding the substance to be cooled. The compartment can be sealed closed and can be accessed for adding substance to the compartment for cooling or for removing substance from the compartment after cooling the substance. The body of the device has an internal cavity that surrounds the exterior of the compartment holding the substance to be cooled. Fluidized coolant is injected into the cavity through an injection port to cool the substance contained within the compartment before removing the substance from the compartment for use. The device may include exterior buttons that compress the internal compartment when the buttons are pressed toward each other, which in turn compresses and breaks up the substance contained within the compartment.
