Vacuum flask
A vacuum flask is a vessel which keeps its contents hotter or cooler than their environment by interposing an evacuated region to provide thermal insulation between the contents and the environment. Note that the vacuum is used for thermal insulation; the contents are not in vacuum conditions.
