Zusammenfassung:A cooler with an open volume minimization system suitable for use in harsh conditions with extreme motions such as an off-road vehicle. The open volume minimization system includes a contents engagement portion that may extend from a cooler sidewall and/or a lid to reduce the open volume and constrain the contents in the cooler. Manual or powered means can lower and retract the contents engagement portion. The engagement portion may be part of an expandable bladder system integrated with the cooler. Inflation of the bladder moves the engagement portion to the contents minimizing sloshing by reducing the open volume in the interior and by securing the contents. Elastomeric strap latches under tension may keep the lid securely latched.
