It will be apparent that embodiments of the invention may be practiced without limitation to the specific details that are set forth by those skilled in the art.
Referring now to fig. 1 to 11, a thermal container 100 of the present embodiment will be described.
The thermal container 100 comprises a case which in turn comprises side panels at the lateral ends of the case, end panels at the longitudinal ends of the case, a top panel 10 at the top and a bottom panel 12 at the bottom. The side plates include two side plates (first side plate and second side plate 11) opposite to each other, and the end plates include two end plates opposite to each other. Thus, the two side plates, the two end plates, the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 12 together define the interior space of the cabinet.
The longitudinal dimension of the box body is about 12200mm, and five refrigerating units are arranged in the box body. The five refrigeration units are sequentially arranged at the first side plate along the longitudinal direction in the box body, and it can be seen that the five refrigeration units are arranged from the first end plate to the other end plate, namely, the superposition of the longitudinal dimensions of the five refrigeration units is exactly equal to the internal longitudinal dimension of the box body. If the longitudinal dimension of the container is less than 6500mm, then preferably two refrigeration units are provided within the container.
It will be appreciated that the second side panel may be the side panel of a standard insulated container including an insulation layer, and the first side panel may not be provided with an insulation layer as the inside of the first side panel is covered by the refrigeration unit. Or the first side plate can be only provided with a frame for installing the refrigerating unit, so that the air tightness in the box body can be ensured, and the first side plate is not required to be set as a side plate of the complete heat preservation container.
The refrigeration unit comprises a refrigerator 1 for refrigeration. Because five refrigerators 1 are arranged in the insulated container 100, the transported goods can be cooled down quickly, thereby realizing pre-cooling of the goods.
An air outlet (not shown) is provided at the lower part of the refrigerator 1, and a plurality of guide plates 6 are provided at the lower part of the refrigerator 1 to be arranged up and down in order to rapidly convey cool air discharged from the air outlet to other positions in the box, and referring to fig. 5, the guide plates 6 extend obliquely upward from the air outlet toward the second side plate. The baffle 6 is fixed in the below of refrigerator 1 through the baffle mounting bracket, and the upper portion of baffle mounting bracket links to each other with refrigerator 1 through hinge 3, and the lower part links to each other with the supporting shoe 5 of fixing on the bottom plate through quick-turn screw 4.
The refrigerating machine unit further comprises control chambers 32 provided on both longitudinal sides of the refrigerating machine, and control means for controlling the refrigerating machine 1 are placed in the control chambers 32. The control room 32 comprises a fixed riser 16 parallel to the end plate of the cabinet and an openable cover 15 pivotably connected to the fixed riser 16 and located between the fixed riser 16 and the refrigerator 1. Referring to fig. 8, it can be seen that the fixed riser 16, the openable cover 15, the side walls of the refrigerator 1 in the longitudinal direction of the cabinet, and the fixed block 35 fixed at the first side plate of the cabinet together define the inner space of the control chamber 32.
Preferably, the openable panel 15 is pivotably connected to the fixed riser 16 via a pivot axis perpendicular to the box top panel 10, and the openable panel 15 is openable toward the second side panel about the pivot axis. In order to ensure that the openable panel 15 is not easily opened by vibration when it is closed, hooks are provided on the openable panel 15 and the fixed riser 16, respectively, and a spring 34 is installed between the two hooks. When the openable panel 15 is closed, the spring 34 is in a natural state or a compressed state. When it is desired to open the openable panel 15, the spring 34 may be disengaged from the catch on the openable panel 15. More preferably, in order to ensure that the openable panel 15 does not open into the control room 32, a support 33 is provided in the control room 32. When the openable cover 15 is closed, the inner side of the openable cover 15 abuts against the support frame 33.
Preferably, the refrigeration unit further comprises a plurality of bump guards 2 arranged on the side of the refrigerator 1 close to the second side plate. The plurality of bump guards 2 are arranged parallel to the side plates and in parallel at equal intervals from each other. The anti-collision device 2 is a strip-shaped structure with a rectangular cross section. Specifically, both ends of the collision avoidance device 2 are respectively connected to openable cover plates 15 of control rooms 32 on both sides of the refrigerator 1 through collision avoidance device mounting bases 14. The anti-collision device 2 can effectively protect the cooler 1 so that the cooler 1 is not damaged during the loading and unloading of goods. Meanwhile, it can be appreciated that the openable cover 15 of the control room 32 is not easily opened due to the provision of the bump guard 2. If the openable panel 15 is to be opened, the bump guard 2 is to be detached first.
Referring to fig. 2, the end plates of the case include end doors, i.e., the case is provided with one end door 7 at each of both ends in the longitudinal direction. The end door 7 can be horizontally pivoted outside the cabinet and fixed to the outer side of the second side plate 11 to facilitate loading and unloading of goods. In other embodiments, not shown, it is also possible to provide the end door 7 on one side only in the longitudinal direction and to provide a fixed end plate with a heat insulation on the other side.
In order to facilitate loading and unloading of goods from the end door 7, retractable ramp portions 13 are provided at both longitudinal ends of the outside of the box. The ramp 13 has two states, an open state and a retracted state, when the ramp 13 is in the open state, a first end of the ramp is connected to the tank and a second end is located on a supporting surface (typically the ground) on which the tank is made, the first end being higher than the second end. In this way, it is possible to facilitate pushing of goods into or out of the box through the ramp portion 13. Preferably, after the end door 7 is closed, the slope portion 13 may be pivoted upward and fixed to the outside of the end door 7, and the slope portion 13 at this time is in a retracted state.
In the present embodiment, the top plate 10, the bottom plate 12, and the second side plate 11 of the case are each provided with a heat insulating layer. Referring to fig. 9, the second side plate 11 of the case includes an outer side plate 17, an inner side plate 18, and a heat insulating layer 19 filled between the outer side plate 17 and the inner side plate 18. The outer side plate 17 is further provided with a reinforcing side column 20 extending in the vertical direction, and the reinforcing side column 20 can enhance the strength of the second side plate 11.
Referring now to fig. 10, it can be seen that the thermal insulation layer of the base plate 12 is provided with a base plate support 24 extending transversely of the box and having a "C" shaped cross section. An insulating and heat-insulating support 22 is connected above the bottom plate support 24, and the insulating and heat-insulating support 22 is connected with the aluminum floor 21 at the upper end of the bottom plate 12 through a peeling-preventing connecting member 23. The peel-proof connection member 23 can ensure that the insulating support 22 and the floor support 24 are not easily disconnected from the aluminum floor 21, so that the floor support 24 can strengthen the strength of the floor 12 for a long period of time. While the insulating support 22 promotes the thermal insulation and safety of the tank.
Turning now again to fig. 11, it can be seen that the top panel 10 includes an outer top panel 25, an inner top panel 26 and an insulating layer 19 filled therebetween.
