Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the embodiment, and structural, methodological, or functional changes made by one of ordinary skill in the art according to the embodiment are included in the scope of the present invention.

Fig. 1 to 17 show a mobile fresh-keeping box 100 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The portable crisper 100, for cold chain transport, can pre-chill and/or preserve the goods.

The mobile fresh-keeping box 100 comprises a storage box 12, a cold demand unit 10, a cold storage unit 20, a cold demand unit 10, a cold supply unit 30, a discharge unit 40, a humidification unit 50 and an electric control unit 60. The mobile fresh-keeping box 100 may be an integral body, or may be formed by assembling independent modules.

The cold demand unit 10 comprises any unit requiring cold. The cold demand units 10 are integrated, or the cold demand units 10 comprise a plurality of sub cold demand units separated by at least one separation structure 11, the cold supply units transmit cold to each sub cold demand unit, and the supply of cold to at least one sub cold demand unit is independently controlled, so that block cold supply is realized, and the use scene is more flexible.

In the first class of embodiments, the cooling demand unit 10 includes a storage box 12, and at least one door 13 for opening or closing the storage box 12, and the storage box 12 is a thermal insulation box body. The storage box 12 is used for storing agricultural products, and the cold supply unit 30 provides cold energy for the storage box 12 to pre-cool and/or keep fresh the agricultural products.

Further, the sub-cooling units are a plurality of storage areas 14 formed by dividing the storage box 12 by at least one dividing structure 11. On the one hand, after filling a storage area 14 with goods, the partition structure 11 corresponding to the storage area 14 can be closed, the cooling unit 30 is started to cool the storage area 14, and the goods in the storage area 14 are pre-cooled and/or kept fresh; the pre-cooling and/or the fresh-keeping are realized. On the other hand, during loading and unloading, the partition structure 11 can effectively prevent the cold energy of the storage area 14 which enters a precooling or refrigerating or freezing state from leaking, reduce energy consumption, and simultaneously can directly load goods from a goods source and directly transport the goods to a destination, thereby avoiding the intermediate transfer process of the traditional cold chain vehicle and greatly improving the transport efficiency.

In this embodiment, the plurality of partition structures 11 are disposed at intervals along the longitudinal direction of the storage box 12, and the partition structures 11 are disposed substantially parallel to the door 13. The plurality of storage areas 14 are filled one by one from the storage area 14 farthest from the door body 13, and precooling of the goods in one storage area 14 is started when one storage area 14 is filled. Of course, in other embodiments, the door 13 may be disposed on the side of the storage compartment 12, such that the door 13 and the partition structure 11 are disposed vertically.

In one embodiment, the separating structure 11 is a flexible separating structure, which is simple and flexible to deform, and is better for use in a scene, such as a door curtain. In order to prevent the cold energy of the storage area 14 from leaking outwards, the length of the flexible dividing structure along the up-down direction is not less than the height of the storage box 12; the width of the flexible dividing structure is not less than the width preferably larger than the width of the storage box 12, so that the upper side and the lower side and the left side and the right side of the flexible dividing structure can be matched and sealed with the inner wall of the storage box 12 to reduce or seal a gap between the flexible dividing structure and the storage box 12, and further reduce the cold leakage quantity.

Further, the flexible dividing structure is longer in length in the up-down direction, and when a large number of goods need to be placed in the storage area 14, the top of the flexible dividing structure is inclined outward, so that the space of the storage area 14 can be temporarily increased. Preferably, the length of the flexible dividing structure in the vertical direction is less than or equal to 1.5 times of the height of the storage box 12, the flexible dividing structure is stacked at the bottom due to an excessively long length, which causes inconvenience in loading and unloading goods, and the amount of goods exceeds the volume of the expanded space, and the extra part should be placed in the next storage area. More preferably, it is equal to or less than (1 + √ 2)/2 times the height of the storage compartment 12, i.e., the upper half of the flexible dividing structure is inclined outward at 45 °.

For further reducing the risk of cold leakage, the left side and the right side of the flexible dividing structure can be fixed on the inner wall of the storage box 12 in a magic tape or magnetic tape mode. And flexible division structure below then need not to be fixed with 12 diapalls of storage tank, and flexible division structure can guarantee to laminate to 12 diapalls of storage tank under self action of gravity.

In addition, the material of the partition structure 11 may be selected according to the type of goods stored in the storage area 14, so as to determine whether to adopt the heat insulation partition structure 11. If the desired temperature of the reservoir region 14 is low, for example 0 ℃ and below, the partition structure 11 is preferred. Also, when the kinds of goods in the adjacent storage areas 14 are the same or the required storage temperatures are similar, the partition structure 11 is not required, and the temperature equilibrium between the adjacent storage areas 14 can be rapidly achieved by heat exchange when the loading is completed. When the goods in adjacent storing district 14 is different, corresponding preservation temperature is also different, adopts partition structure 11, can effectively completely cut off the heat transfer between the adjacent storing district 14, guarantees that the temperature in each storing district 14 is stable, realizes the multi-temperature-zone and stores up the goods function.

Further, for automated zone cooling, the electronic control unit includes a sensor to detect whether the storage zone 14 is in a closed state. Specifically, the partition structure 11 has an open state for opening the storage area 14 and a closed state for closing the storage area 14, and the sensor includes a travel switch, a light sensor, a pressure sensor, and an infrared sensor for detecting whether the partition structure 11 is in the closed state.

In the second type of embodiment, the sub-cooling units are a plurality of storage boxes 12 arranged independently, each storage box 12 can be the storage box 12 in the first type of embodiment, and the interior of the storage box 12 can be partitioned or not.

In another embodiment, the first containing area 202 and the second containing area 203 are arranged in the height direction, and the communication port is opened at any position on the solid-liquid separation structure 204. Preferably, the first receiving area 202 is located above the second receiving area 203, and the liquid refrigerant is introduced into the second receiving area 203 by gravity. Alternatively, the first receiving area 202 is located below the second receiving area 203, and in this case, the liquid cold storage medium needs to be pumped into the second receiving area 203 through a water pipe and a water pump.

When the cold storage box 201 is a water tank, or a water tank is arranged in the cold storage box 201, the protrusion supporting portion 206 is located at the bottom of the water tank.

In a specific embodiment, the protruding support 206 is a convex rib, the communication channel 208 is located at an end or a middle portion of the convex rib, and a gap 207 between adjacent convex ribs and the communication channel 208 together form the second accommodation area 203. In another embodiment, the protruding support portions 206 are independently disposed bumps, and the gaps 207 between adjacent bumps are communicated with each other through the communication channel 208 to form the second receiving area 203.

Further, the cold storage unit 20 further includes a cooling port 209 for feeding at least the solid cold storage medium, and a cooling port Leng Gai for opening or closing the cooling port 209. The cold adding port 209 is preferably arranged at the top or the side of the cold storage unit 20, so that solid cold carrying medium can be conveniently and rapidly filled in, a large amount of cold can be rapidly stored, and the cold requirement in the pre-cooling process of agricultural products can be met.

In an embodiment, the cold storage unit 20 of the present invention is described by taking water as the cold storage medium, wherein the cold storage medium is ice cubes in a solid state and water in a liquid state. Before cold chain transportation, enough ice blocks with stable shapes are added into the cold storage box 201 according to the required cold quantity, so as to realize quick cold storage; the temperature of the ice blocks is increased or melted into water after heat absorption, the water and the ice blocks are mixed to form an ice-water mixture, and the temperature of the water is lower than that of cold water at about 0 ℃; the cold supply unit 30 transmits cold water to the cold demand unit 10, the temperature of the cold water is increased after the cold water exchanges heat with the cold demand unit 10, and the cold water flows back to the cold storage tank 201 to exchange heat with ice blocks and/or ice water.

It should be noted that if the cold storage unit 10 needs to be supplied with cold after rapid cold storage, and the ice blocks do not melt into enough cold water, a part of water needs to be added into the cold storage tank 201 after the ice blocks are filled, and then the part of water is supplied to the cold storage unit 10, so that the return water with higher temperature exchanges heat with the ice blocks, and the water in the cold storage tank 201 is increased. If a certain time is left after the quick cold storage and before the pre-cooling fresh-keeping box is carried to the destination to be filled with agricultural products, a part of ice blocks can be melted into water to form an ice-water mixture in the time period, and cold water does not need to be added at the beginning.

Furthermore, the cold storage unit 20 is further provided with a holding structure 20a for holding the solid cold storage medium. The fixing structure 20a is a fixing frame for clamping the solid cold storage medium to prevent the solid cold storage medium from shaking and toppling over during transportation.

Specifically, the holding structure 20a is located in the first accommodating area 202, which can stabilize the solid state cold storage medium and prevent the solid state cold storage medium from directly impacting the cold storage box.

Or, a water tank with an upward opening is arranged in the cold storage tank 201, the fixing structure 20a is arranged outside the water tank, and part of the fixing structure 20a is higher than the water tank, so as to fix the solid cold storage medium above the water tank, and meanwhile, the strength of the water tank can be enhanced, and the water tank is prevented from cracking.

Or, an upward-opening water tank is disposed in the cold storage tank 201, the fixing structure 20a is disposed above the water tank, which is equivalent to heightening the wall of the water tank, to fix the solid cold storage medium above the water tank, and the side wall of the water tank can stabilize the solid cold storage medium in the water tank.

Preferably, an on-off valve or a liquid pump is disposed on the communicating pipe to drive the refrigerant to circulate between the first receiving area 202 and the second receiving area 203. The difference from the first type of cold storage box 201 mainly lies in the communication manner of the two accommodating areas, and the others are not described in detail.

The difference from the first type of cold storage box 201 is mainly how the cold storage mediums in the two receiving areas conduct heat, and the others will not be described in detail.

In one embodiment, the second receiving area 203 is embedded in the first receiving area 202, or the first receiving area 202 is embedded in the second receiving area 203, or the second receiving area 203 is adjacent to the first receiving area 202, and heat is transferred therebetween by thermal radiation.

When the bypass pump is started, the liquid cold storage medium flows in the bypass heat conduction pipe, and the cold energy of the cold storage medium in the first accommodation area 202 is transferred to the cold storage medium in the second accommodation area 203.

The second type of cold storage unit 20 is in a liquid state, and is convenient to provide cold energy to the cold demand unit 10 through the cold supply unit 30. The difference from the first type of cold storage unit 20 is only that the first accommodating area 202 and the second accommodating area 203 are the same accommodating area, and the description is omitted.

Based on the cold storage unit 20, the present invention further provides a rapid cold storage system, which rapidly adds the solid cold storage medium into the cold storage tank 201, i.e., completes rapid cold charging. Compared with the traditional method that the cold storage medium is changed into a solid state from a liquid state through a refrigerating unit or a cold filling machine, the cold filling speed is high, the cold filling amount in a short time is large, and the pre-cooling requirement of agricultural products can be met.

The cooling unit 30 is a medium for transferring the cooling energy stored in the cooling storage medium to the cooling demand unit 10.

The first type of cooling unit 30 is suitable for both types of cold storage units 20. The cooling unit 30 is used for transferring the liquid cold storage medium to the cooling unit 10 to directly provide the cooling capacity for the cooling unit.

The cooling unit 30 includes a heat exchanger 32 disposed at the cooling unit 10, a first transfer unit 31 transferring a liquid cooling storage medium to the heat exchanger 32, and a driving pump driving the transfer of the cooling storage medium. The cold storage medium exchanges heat with the cold-requiring unit 10 in the heat exchanger 32, is not in direct contact with the cold-requiring unit 10, is in soft heat transfer, and has no damage to the cold-requiring unit 10.

Preferably, the cooling unit 30 further includes a second transfer unit 33 transferring the cold storage medium from the heat exchanger 32 to the cold storage unit 20. The cold supply unit 30 transmits the liquid cold storage medium with lower temperature into the heat exchanger 32 through the first transmission unit 31, the temperature of the cold storage medium is increased after the cold storage medium exchanges heat with the cold requiring unit 10 in the heat exchanger 32, and the cold storage medium returns to the cold storage unit 20 through the second transmission unit 33; meanwhile, the cooling unit 30 continues to transmit the liquid cooling medium with a lower temperature to the heat exchanger 32, so as to form a dynamic cycle, and continuously provide cooling capacity for the cooling unit 10.

The heat exchanger 32 may be a direct cooling type heat exchanger, and includes at least one heat exchanger body 321, where the heat exchanger body 321 includes a heat exchange tube, and preferably also includes a heat dissipation fin, so as to increase a heat exchange area.

The heat exchanger 32 includes at least two heat exchanger bodies 321, and the at least two heat exchanger bodies 321 are arranged along an up-down direction and/or a horizontal direction. When the cold energy is distributed along the up-and-down direction, the cold energy released on the whole surface is more uniform; when the cooling device is arranged along the horizontal direction, the cooling device is convenient to perform zoned cooling along the horizontal direction. For convenience, when describing the relationship between the heat exchange fan 322 and the heat exchanger body 321, at least two heat exchanger bodies 321 may also be described as a whole: the heat exchanger body 321 comprises at least two sub heat exchanger bodies 321 distributed along a horizontal direction and/or a vertical direction.

The heat exchanger 32 may also be added with a heat exchange fan 322 on the basis of a direct cooling type heat exchanger. When the cold demand unit 10 needs a large amount of cold, the heat exchange fan 322 is started to accelerate the heat exchange of the heat exchanger 32; at times of lesser refrigeration demand by the cold demand unit 10, the heat exchange fan 322 is not activated.

In the invention, the heat exchange fan 322 is divided into two types according to the function:

firstly, the heat exchanger body 321 is located on the air outlet side or the air suction side of the heat exchange fan 322, the unit to be cooled 10 is located on the air outlet side of the heat exchange fan 322, and the heat exchange fan 322 is used for driving the air at the unit to be cooled 10 to exchange heat with the heat exchanger body 321, so that an air-cooled heat exchanger is substantially formed, and the heat exchanger is suitable for the unit to be cooled 10 which is not afraid of cold air blowing.

Second, the purpose of the heat exchange fan 322 is only to: disturbing the air around the heat exchanger 32 accelerates its heat exchange with the heat exchanger 32, but it is undesirable that the cold air is blown toward the unit 10 to be cooled, and it is still essentially a direct cooling type heat exchanger.

Specifically, the heat exchanger body 321 is located in an air suction area or an air outlet area of the heat exchange fan 322, and the unit 10 to be cooled is located in a non-air outlet area of the heat exchange fan 322. The air passes through the heat exchanger 32, but does not blow to the unit 10 to be cooled, or a small amount of edge air blows to the unit 10 to be cooled, so that cold air is prevented from directly blowing to the unit 10 to be cooled to cause damage.

In an embodiment, the heat exchange fan 322 is located between the heat exchanger body 321 and the cooling demand unit 10, and the heat exchanger body 321 is located on an air outlet side of the heat exchange fan 322. For example, the heat exchange fan 322 is located below the heat exchanger body 321 and blows towards the right top, and the cooling demand unit 10 is located below the heat exchange fan 322.

In another embodiment, the heat exchanger body 321 has a first side and a second side distributed on two sides of the heat exchanger body 321 along a first direction, the cooling demand unit 10 is located on the first side, and the heat exchange fan 322 is disposed on one side of the heat exchanger body 321 along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. For example, the unit 10 to be cooled is located below the heat exchanger body 321, the heat exchange fan 322 is located on one side of the heat exchanger body 321 in the horizontal direction, and the outlet of the heat exchange fan blows towards the heat exchanger body 321 horizontally, so that the cold air passing through the heat exchanger body 321 is prevented from directly blowing towards the lower side of the heat exchanger body 321, and the unit 10 to be cooled is prevented from being damaged.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 13 to 15, an air outlet centerline of the heat exchange fan 322 is inclined toward the second side. For example, the outlet air of the heat exchange fan 322 is blown obliquely upward to the heat exchanger body 321, so that the cold air passing through the heat exchanger body 321 is prevented from being directly blown to the lower part of the heat exchanger body 321, and the cold unit 10 is prevented from being damaged.

Preferably, the inclination angle a of the heat exchange fan 322 is greater than 0 ° and less than 90 °; preferably between 10 ° and 80 °, more preferably between 30 ° and 60 °, more preferably between 40 ° and 50 °, the wind passes through most of the area of the heat exchanger body 321, but does not blow towards the cooling-required unit 10.

Further, as shown in fig. 15, the heat exchanger 32 includes at least two heat exchange fans 322, and the at least two heat exchange fans 322 are respectively disposed on two sides of the heat exchanger body 321, which are oppositely disposed along the second direction. Blow to heat exchanger body 321 simultaneously from relative both sides, improved heat exchange efficiency, the wind of while two directions offsets each other to a certain extent, avoids the cold wind to blow to the first side of heat exchanger body 321.

Preferably, the air outlet centerline of the heat exchange fan 322 is inclined towards the second side, and the intersection point of the air outlet centerlines of the heat exchange fans 322 respectively disposed at two opposite sides of the heat exchanger body 321 is located on the heat exchanger body 321.

When the heat exchanger body 321 is positioned at the air outlet side of the heat exchange fan 322 and the heat exchange fans 322 respectively arranged at the two sides are symmetrically arranged, the intersection points can be positioned in the heat exchanger body 321, and most areas of the heat exchanger body 321 can blow air; the intersection point may also be located on the second side of the heat exchanger body 321 beyond the heat exchanger body 321, and the wind is not blown to the partial area on the heat exchanger body 321.

The inventor further researches and discovers that: the connecting lines of the heat exchange fans 322 respectively arranged at the two sides of the heat exchanger body 321 are used as base lines, and the larger the inclination angle a of the heat exchange fans 322 is, the larger the distance between the intersection point and the base line is; and the larger the inclination angle a of the heat exchange fan 322 is, the less the wind blows to the unit 10 to be cooled, and the closer to direct cooling. Therefore, as shown in fig. 14, the central axis of the outlet air of the heat exchange fan 322 is offset from the center of the heat exchanger body 321 along the first side to the second side direction to the first side, and the offset distance is within 1 time of the width of the heat exchanger body 321 along the first direction. Preferably, when the heat exchanger body 321 is located on the air outlet side of the heat exchange fan 322, the heat exchange fan 322 is flush with the portion of the heat exchanger body 321 facing the first side along the central axis of the first direction. Taking the first side as the lower part of the heat exchanger body 321 and the second side as the upper part of the heat exchanger body 321 as an example, the heat exchange fan 322 is located on one side of the heat exchanger body 321 in the horizontal direction and is flush with the lower half part of the heat exchanger body 321.

Correspondingly, when the heat exchanger body 321 is located on the air suction side of the heat exchanger blower 322, the heat exchanger blower 322 is flush with the heat exchanger body 321 along the central axis of the first direction toward the second side, so that the wind passes through the heat exchanger body 321 as much as possible.

With this configuration, it is possible to uniformly introduce the returned cold storage medium into the cold storage tank 201, in direct opposition to the pressure change of the liquid cold storage medium in the return pipe 331.

Of course, the second transfer unit 33 may also communicate with the second accommodation area 203. Preferably, the connection point of the second transmission unit 33 and the second accommodation area 203 is higher than the connection point of the first transmission unit 31 and the second accommodation area 203.

In the second type of cooling unit 30, the cooling unit 30 includes a circulation pipeline, a cooling medium flowing in the circulation pipeline, and a driving element for driving the cooling medium to flow in the circulation pipeline. When the cold transfer medium is in a liquid state, the driving element is a water pump; when the cold transfer medium is in a gaseous state, the driving element is a fan.

A part of the circulation line is arranged in heat conduction with the cold storage unit 20, for example, a part of the circulation line is located in the cold storage unit 20 and is in direct contact with the cold storage medium. Another part of the circulation line is arranged in heat-conducting relationship with the cold demand unit 10.

Further, the cooling unit 30 further includes a heat exchanger 32 connected to the circulation pipeline, and the heat exchanger 32 and the heat exchange manner with the cooling demand unit 10 refer to the first type cooling unit 30, which is not described herein again.

Preferably, the pre-cooling fresh-keeping box 100 at least comprises any two of the above cooling units 30, and can provide cooling capacity for the cooling units 10 through at least two cooling modes, so that the pre-cooling fresh-keeping box can adapt to different cooling units 10; on the other hand, it is possible to switch on at least two cooling units 30 when the cooling units 10 require a large amount of cooling, and to select one of them preferentially to supply cooling when the cooling units 10 do not require large amounts of cooling.

The heat conduction setting and the heat conduction connection mean that: both of which can exchange heat directly or indirectly. Moreover, any of the above-mentioned cold storage units 20 can be used in combination with any of the above-mentioned cold supply units 30 to form a cold storage and supply system. Through the cold storage and supply system, a friendly low-temperature environment is provided for agricultural products such as fruits and the like, which is equivalent to storing the fruits in the environment in winter.

The present invention realizes rapid cold storage by adding a solid cold storage medium into the cold storage tank 201. After the goods are added into the storage box 12, the cold energy is rapidly supplied into the storage box 12 through the cold supply unit 30 to realize precooling; when the temperature of the cold storage tank is reduced to the refrigeration or freezing temperature, the pre-cooling stage is finished, and the cold supply unit 30 supplies cold energy in the second cold supply mode to enter the refrigeration or freezing stage. Wherein the cooling capacity of the pre-cooling stage is larger than that of the refrigerating or freezing stage.

From the above, the mobile preservation box 100 of the present invention can be transported by a vehicle, and can reach the base of agricultural products as long as there is a way, and is very close to the picking place of the products. And the precooling is realized through a large amount of cold energy stored by the cold storage unit 20, and the precooling process is not limited by whether a product base has a power supply or not and whether a cold charging machine exists or not, so that the precooling in the production place can be realized. Directly from the goods source ground shipment to directly transport the destination, avoided the middle turnover process in traditional cold chain car, greatly improved conveying efficiency.

After the agricultural products are picked, the agricultural products can enter the storage box 12 at the first time, the cold supply unit 30 is opened to enter a pre-cooling process after the goods are fully closed, the agricultural products do not need to be pulled to the refrigeration house for queuing for pre-cooling, boxing pre-cooling can be realized in an agricultural product base, freshness is locked in time, and the taste and the quality are guaranteed.

When the agricultural product temperature reduces to cold-stored or freezing temperature, can directly get into cold-stored or freezing stage through the mode of adjusting the confession cold, need not the transport promptly after the precooling and enter into cold-stored or freezing stage promptly, compare in traditional cold chain transportation, need not transport many times, reduce the damage that collision and extrusion to agricultural product caused.

The goods can enter the transportation process after being filled and closed, and the processes of precooling, freshness keeping and the like are carried out in the transportation process, so that the functions of loading, namely walking, vehicle-mounted precooling and on-the-way precooling are really realized, and therefore, the products are unloaded from the container loading to the destination and are only carried once, and the damage rate caused by the collision of the goods is greatly reduced; the goods are pre-cooled and refrigerated/frozen in the pre-cooling and fresh-keeping box and are in the refrigerating or freezing environment provided by the cold supply unit 30 in the whole process, so that the cold chain is ensured to be not broken in the whole process; this is neither possible nor achievable in cold transport at present.

The inventor further researches and discovers that: the cold storage unit 20 is used to contain a large amount of solid cold storage medium to meet the demand of pre-cooling the goods, but the part of the cold storage medium increases the transportation cost. In addition, in the cooling or cold supply process, the solid cold storage medium melts, the amount of the liquid cold storage medium is increased, and the liquid cold storage medium is easy to shake and escape in the transportation process. Therefore, the discharging unit 40 is further arranged to discharge the liquid cold storage medium outwards, on one hand, the amount of the solid cold storage medium added at one time can be reduced, the solid cold storage medium is discharged after being melted, the solid cold storage medium is added again, namely, the solid cold storage medium is added in batches, the volume or the weight of the cold storage unit 20 is reduced, and the cargo capacity is increased; on the other hand, even if the solid cold-filling medium is added at one time, the weight can be reduced and the transportation cost can be reduced by discharging the liquid cold-storage medium after the cold energy is released.

The discharge unit 40 is an optional unit, and can be closed or removed.

In one embodiment, the discharge unit 40 includes a first discharge port 401 communicating with the cold storage unit 20, or the discharge unit 40 includes a first discharge port 401 communicating with the cold storage unit 20, a first discharge pipe 402 communicating with the first discharge port 401.

Specifically, the first discharge port 401 is opened in the heat-storage tank 201. When the liquid level of the liquid cold storage medium reaches the height of the first discharge port 401, it is automatically discharged to the outside. Preferably, the height difference between the first discharge opening 401 and the bottom of the cold storage unit 20 is equal to or greater than 20 cm, preferably equal to or greater than 40 cm, preferably equal to or greater than 50 cm, preferably equal to or greater than 60 cm, preferably equal to or greater than 50 cm, preferably equal to or greater than 80 cm, preferably equal to or greater than 90 cm, preferably equal to or greater than 100 cm, so as to ensure that there is enough liquid cold storage medium in the cold storage unit 20 to avoid affecting the circulating cooling.

Or, the discharge unit 40 further includes a first discharge port 401' opened on the first conveying unit 31; alternatively, the discharge unit further comprises a first discharge pipe 402' connected to the first transfer unit 31. The first exhaust port 401 'and the first exhaust pipe 402' may also discharge the cold storage medium, which has released the cold, to the outside, or after the transportation is finished.

Further, the discharge unit 40 further includes a first discharge valve that opens or closes the first discharge port 401/401 'or the first discharge pipe 402/402'. By means of the first discharge valve, the discharge is made controllable in terms of time, space, temperature, etc. For example, the discharging may be performed during at least one of pre-cooling, refrigerating or freezing stages, preferably after the pre-cooling is completed and before the cargo returns, so as to reduce the power consumption of the vehicle. Or the waste water is discharged in the field in the wasteland, and the waste water is discharged in areas such as toll stations, urban areas and the like.

In another embodiment, the discharge unit further includes a second discharge port 403 opened on the second transfer unit 33, a second discharge valve opening or closing the second discharge port 403; or, the discharge unit further includes a second discharge pipe 404 connected to the second transfer unit 33, and a second discharge valve opening or closing the second discharge pipe 404.

The present invention preferably discharges the cold storage medium from the second transfer unit 33, so that it is possible to prevent the returned cold storage medium from being discharged after heat exchange with the solid cold storage medium, thereby preventing loss of cooling capacity.

Further, the discharge unit further includes a sensor for detecting the amount of the liquid refrigerant in the storage tank 12. When the amount of the liquid-state cold storage medium in the cold storage tank 201 reaches the maximum level, the second discharge valve is opened and the cold storage medium is discharged outward with full force. When the amount of the liquid cold storage medium in the cold storage tank 201 reaches the middle line, the second discharge valve is half opened, and a part of the cold storage medium flowing back is discharged outward and a part of the cold storage medium flowing back flows back into the cold storage unit 20, thereby preventing the liquid cold storage medium in the cold storage tank 201 from being rapidly reduced. When the amount of the liquid-state cold storage medium in the cold storage tank 201 reaches the minimum level, the second discharge valve is closed, and the cold storage medium is entirely returned to the cold storage unit 20.

In a preferred embodiment, the above two discharge units are included, and the discharge unit further includes a first sensor for detecting the temperature of the cold storage medium in the second state in the cold storage unit 20 or the cold storage medium in the first transfer unit 31, a second sensor for detecting the temperature of the cold storage medium in the second transfer unit 33 or the cold demand unit, and the second discharge valve is opened when the temperature of the cold storage medium detected by the first sensor is low; the temperature that first sensor measured is low, then opens first blow off valve, and the cold storage medium that the preferential temperature is high is got rid of, avoids cold volume extravagant.

In addition, for the convenience of assembly, the present invention refers to the modular arrangement of the cold storage units 20 as a cold storage module, and the cold storage module includes any one of the cold storage units 20, and the cold storage module further includes at least one set of cold discharge interface ends for connecting with the cold supply unit 30 to allow the liquid cold storage medium to flow out and flow back. At this time, the cooling unit includes a cooling interface end connected to the cold discharge interface end to transmit the cold of the cold storage medium to the cooling demand unit 10.

The cooling interface end for the liquid cooling storage medium to flow out is communicated with the first transmission unit 31, and the communication mode of the cooling storage unit and the cooling storage box 201 is the same as that of the first transmission unit 31 and the cooling storage box 201.

According to an overall arrangement, the cold storage module may further comprise at least a part of the cooling unit 30, for example a return pipe 331 of the cooling unit 30 and a return opening provided thereon as a part of the cold storage module.

The cold storage module may further include any one of the above-described discharge units 40.

The cold storage module can be matched with at least one cold demand unit 10 and at least one cold supply unit 30 to form the mobile fresh-keeping box together.

Or, for example, a plurality of storage bins 12 are arranged around the cold storage unit 20.

Further, the cold adding port 209 is disposed on a wall of the cold storage unit 20 located in a part of the storage box 12, or the cold adding port 209 is disposed on a wall of the cold storage unit 20 adjacent to or shared by a part of the storage box 12, at this time, the cold adding port 209 is opened toward the inside of the storage box 12, so that unnecessary cold leakage can be avoided, and a cold storage medium needs to be added to the cold storage unit 20 through the storage box 12. Alternatively, the cooling port 209 may be provided in a wall of the cold storage unit 20 exposed to the outside of the portable fresh food box 100, and may be used to load and unload the cold storage medium into and from the storage box 12 and to replenish the cold storage medium in the middle.

When the precooling-fresh-keeping box is used for conveying agricultural products such as fruits, vegetables and the like, air in the storage box 12 needs to be replaced in the transportation process due to the respiration of the fruits, the vegetables and the like. In the prior art, an air inlet window is usually arranged at the front part of the storage box 12, and the air inlet window is opened after about ten hours of transportation, so that air can quickly enter the storage box 12 in the transportation process. On one hand, the gas atmosphere in the storage box 12 is poor after about ten hours of transportation; on the other hand, the high temperature gas passing through the storage box 12 can raise the temperature in the storage box 12, and the cold chain transportation is broken.

For example, when the area of the first open hole is equivalent to a circle of the same area, the diameter is 1 to 3 cm. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the more the cargo is loaded, the less the space is, and the more the air is displaced for the same area of the first open aperture.

Preferably, the area of the first open opening is smaller than that of the second open opening, so that air can enter the box body in a controlled mode and then be discharged outwards naturally.

In the transportation process, the shielding part is blown up by wind, so that the air circulation is facilitated.

Further, the high-temperature air is cooled firstly and then enters the storage area 14 of the storage box 12, so that temperature fluctuation in the box body can be avoided.

Air firstly passes through the cold storage box 201 after entering from the first opening, exchanges heat with cold storage medium, and then enters the storage box 12 behind after the temperature is reduced, so that the phenomenon that the temperature fluctuation in the storage box 12 is large is avoided.

In another embodiment, the cold storage unit 20 is disposed at the front side of the storage box 12, and the cold storage unit 20 is provided with an air inlet through hole for air to enter and an air outlet through hole for air to flow out, the air outlet through hole is communicated with the first opening, the air enters the cold storage unit 20 first, and the temperature is reduced and then enters the storage box 12 through the first opening.

In another embodiment, the incoming air exchanges heat with a portion of the cooling module and enters the rear storage compartment 12 after the temperature is reduced, thereby avoiding a large temperature fluctuation in the storage compartment 12.

Specifically, the air entering from the first opening is disposed in heat exchange with the first transfer unit 31, and/or the air entering from the first opening is disposed in heat exchange with the second transfer unit 33; and/or, air enters from the first open port and enters the storage area 14 of the storage bin 12 after exchanging heat with at least a portion of the heat exchanger 32.
