Malleable Middle Man

Abstract

The nature of this invention is to provide a more efficient and convenient option for access to contents of containers with minimal exposure of inner contents to outside elements. This invention Malleable Middle Man (mmm) would be some sort of cover or lid that may be made at least in part out of silicone or other flexible or malleable material in order to allow for an opening of any size (small or large) in any pattern of the opening that allows to reach through that the user may be able to easily reach through to access the contained food or other material while minimizing the exposure of the contained food/beverage, ice or other material to outside elements and reduce the loss of cold or warm/hot air from inside the container—prolonging the temperature of the storage container or ice chest or appliance alike. In addition this cover could be in the form of a stand alone cover or serve as a secondary lid that may be left “closed” (yet allowing inner contents to be accessible) while the primary lid is opened.

The claimed inventions are: 
     
         1 . A first exemplary embodiment would be a stretchable material such as silicone or other that would allow for some amount of stretching to fit around the edges of an ice chest. This would allow for the product to be temporarily affixed to the ice chest and provide a cover that would allow for the user to reach through and access the contents.
 This could serve as a single or secondary lid, cover or enclosure that provides access through a flexible (malleable) opening. The main function of this product would be to create a more efficient option of storing and being able to access the stored material while reducing the amount of loss of cold or hot/warm air emitted when the container is open or the primary lid is open. A cover or lid for an ice chest or container that can be reached through by the user while still fully attached. to specify, a lid, door or cover or enclosure either attached permanently or temporarily to a container (appliance or ice chest or container of any kind alike) that is or can be used to store warm or cold food or other material. This product may be clear or in any color or material that is flexible or malleable that would allow for the user to reach through the opening. By using a clear silicone the user would be able to both see into the container and reach through and access the contained food or materials with minimal exposure of other inner contents to outside elements.   
     
     
         2 . A second exemplary embodiment would be a secondary lid of some sort (one that either can Itach to the primary lid or function separately—both would allow for the user to open the primary full lid and still utilize this secondary lid in order to minimize or reduce the amount of exposure of the inner contents of the container or ice chest to our elements or lose cold or warm/hot air from inside.
