Abstract

An inventive vacuum storage container for long term storage of perishable and non-perishable items with secondary storage cavity inside the base. The inventive vacuum storage container incorporates a top cover with vacuum valve and bottom base with an elastic seal. Furthermore, the bottom base possesses removable bottom which couples to the bottom base to form a second interior storage cavity. The removable bottom base may also be coupled with a display surface.

1 . A vacuum storage container with incorporated secondary storage comprising:
 a cylindrical cover having a vacuum valve;   a bottom base having an upper surface and side surfaces;   said bottom base having an interior cavity formed by the bottom of said upper surface and the interior surface of said side surfaces;   said side surfaces having inclined plane interior surfaces; and   an elastic seal attached to said upper surface and shaped so as to form a seal between said bottom base and said cylindrical cover;   wherein said vacuum valve is operable to connect to an external vacuum pump for the removal of gasses from the inside of a cavity formed by the cylindrical cover and the bottom base; and   wherein the cavity is operable to preserve a food item under vacuum.   
     
     
         2 . The storage container of  claim 1  wherein the bottom base has an extension from the bottom of its outer surface configured to fit securely into the top surface of the cylindrical cover.
