Abstract

Systems and methods for vertical storage bag transport coolers in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment, a carrier device for liquids, the carrier device includes a body compartment; a lid; a strap configured to receive at least one vessel having an attachment loop, the strap comprising a first end and a second end, where the first end of the strap attaches to a first end of the internal face of the lid; the strap inserts through the attachment loop of the at least one vessel resulting in the at least one vessel being oriented vertically; and wherein the lid encloses an at least one opening of the body compartment while the at least one vessel is encapsulated by an at least one internal wall of the body compartment and an internal face of the lid, and is oriented vertically.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A carrier device for liquids, the carrier device comprising:
 a body compartment comprising at least one internal wall, at least one external wall, and at least one opening;   a lid comprising an external face and an internal face, wherein the internal face comprises a first end and a second end;   a strap configured to receive at least one vessel having an attachment loop, the strap comprising a first end and a second end, wherein:
 the first end of the strap attaches to the first end of the internal face of the lid; 
 the strap inserts through the attachment loop of the at least one vessel resulting in the at least one vessel being oriented vertically; and 
   wherein the lid encloses the at least one opening of the body compartment while the at least one vessel is encapsulated by the at least one internal wall of the body compartment and the internal face of the lid, and is oriented vertically.   
     
     
         2 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein the strap comprises an attachment that further comprises a first attachment piece and a second attachment piece. 
     
     
         3 . The carrier device of  claim 2 , wherein the second end of the strap attaches to the first attachment. 
     
     
         4 . The carrier device of  claim 2 , wherein the second attachment attaches to the second end of the internal face of the lid. 
     
     
         5 . The carrier device of  claim 2 , wherein the first piece of the attachment attaches to the second piece of the attachment to form a closed loop of the strap and the internal face of the lid. 
     
     
         6 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein the lid is made using a thermally insulated material. 
     
     
         7 . The carrier device of  claim 6 , wherein the thermally insulated material is a fabric material. 
     
     
         8 . The carrier device of  claim 6 , wherein the thermally insulated material is a rigid material. 
     
     
         9 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein the body compartment is made using a thermally insulated material. 
     
     
         10 . The carrier device of  claim 9 , wherein the thermally insulated material thermally insulated material is a fabric. 
     
     
         11 . The carrier device of  claim 9 , wherein the thermally insulated material thermally insulated material is a rigid material. 
     
     
         12 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein the strap is made using an elastic material designed to maintain its elastic properties in a freezing environment. 
     
     
         13 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein the attachment includes a button. 
     
     
         14 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one vessel is a sealable flexible bag. 
     
     
         15 . The carrier device of  claim 14 , wherein the sealable flexible bag comprises a liquid compartment section and a lip section that is separated by a seal. 
     
     
         16 . The carrier device of  claim 15 , wherein the attachment loop of the sealable flexible bag is a through-hole through the lip section. 
     
     
         17 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein enclosing the at least one opening of the body compartment with the lid comprises using a zipper to seal the at least one opening. 
     
     
         18 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein the zipper comprises two parallel zipper rails wherein one parallel zipper rail is located around the outer parameter of the internal face of the lid and the second parallel zipper rail is located around the opening. 
     
     
         19 . The carrier device of  claim 18 , wherein the first end and the second end of the internal face is in close proximity to the zipper rail of the internal face. 
     
     
         20 . The carrier device of  claim 1 , wherein the carrier device maintains a three-dimensional structure while standing on its own weight.
