Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine temperierbare Vorrichtung zum Transport von verderblichem Gut, wie z.B. Organe oder temperaturempfindliches, biologisches Material. Die Erfindung ist gekennzeichnet durch einen verschließbaren Behälter, einer aktiven Temperiervorrichtung , die sich günstiger Weise im Deckel befindet und durch eine Brennstoffzelle mit elektrischer Energie versorgt wird. Eine Regeleinheit gewährleistet die Einhaltung der gewünschten Temperatur.The invention relates to a temperature control Device for transporting perishable goods, e.g. organs or temperature sensitive biological material. The invention is characterized by a lockable container, an active temperature control device that are cheaper Way is in the lid and by a fuel cell with electrical Energy is supplied. A control unit ensures compliance with the desired Temperature.

Häufig ist es notwendig beim Transport von verderblichem Gut dessen Erwärmung oder Abkühlung zu verhindern. Speisen und Getränke, Spenderorgane oder sonstige temperatursensible Materialien benötigen, abhängig von den zurückzulegenden Distanzen eine entsprechende Temperierungsdauer. Der bei nicht temperiertem Transport entstehende Schaden ist in Abhängigkeit von der Empfindlichkeit des zu transportierenden Gutes, abzuwägen.Frequently it is necessary to transport perishable goods to heat them or cooling down to prevent. Food and drinks, Donor organs or other temperature sensitive materials require, depending on the one to be covered Distances a corresponding tempering period. The one with not tempered Damage incurred depends on the sensitivity of the goods to be transported.

Eine Vielzahl von Behältern steht zum temperierten Transport von verderblichem Gut zur Verfügung. Bislang werden die oben genannten Dinge in isolierten Behältern ohne Temperierelement oder mit einer latenten Temperaturquelle, z.B. Eis transportiert. Aus DE 3627201 A1 ist ein Kühlcontainer für Spenderorgane bekannt.A large number of containers are available for the temperature-controlled transport of perishable goods. So far, the above-mentioned things have been transported in insulated containers without a temperature control element or with a latent temperature source, for example ice. Out DE 3627201 A1 a refrigerated container for donor organs is known.

Darüber hinaus werden Behälter mit aktiven Kühlvorrichtungen, wie z.B. Peltierelemente verwendet, die durch externe Stromversorgung, z.B. mittels eines Zigarettenanzünders im Auto (vgl. DE 19753036 C2 ) oder interne, z.B. durch Solarstrom aus photovoltaischen Zellen (vgl. DE 29506347 U1 ) mit elektrischer Energie versorgt werden. Untemperierte oder passiv temperierte Behälter können keine konstante Transport-Temperatur gewährleisten.In addition, containers with active cooling devices, such as, for example, Peltier elements are used, which are powered by an external power supply, for example using a cigarette lighter in the car (cf. DE 19753036 C2 ) or internal, e.g. by solar power from photovoltaic cells (cf. DE 29506347 U1 ) are supplied with electrical energy. Untempered or passively tempered containers cannot guarantee a constant transport temperature.

Der Erfindung liegt die Idee zugrunde eine mobile Energiequelle mit ausreichender Leistung für eine konstante Temperierung einer Transportbox über einen langen Zeitraum zur Verfügung zu stellen. Diese Energie soll darüber hinaus ausreichend sein, um noch andere sinnvolle Elemente, wie z.B. Einheiten zum Aufzeichnen der Temperatur oder eine Temperatursteuerung zu ermöglichen.The invention is based on the idea a mobile energy source with sufficient power for a constant Temperature control of a transport box available for a long period of time to deliver. This energy should also be sufficient to other useful elements, such as Recordable units the temperature or to enable temperature control.

Die Erfindung ist gekennzeichnet durch die Verwendung einer aktiven, regelbaren Temperiereinheit, z.B. Kompressor, Peltierelement, Absorberkühlung oder Heizelemente. Die zum Betrieb benötigte Energie, wird aufgebracht durch eine Brennstoffzelle.The invention is characterized through the use of an active, controllable temperature control unit, e.g. Compressor, Peltier element, absorber cooling or heating elements. The energy required for operation, is applied by a fuel cell.

Brennstoffzellen zeichnen sich durch ihre hohe Energiedichte aus. Bei relativ geringem Gewicht haben sie eine verhältnismäßig hohe Leistung im Vergleich zu anderen mobilen Energiequellen, wie z.B. Akkumulatoren. Der zum Betrieb benötigte Brennstoff, z.B. Wasserstoff oder Methanol kann in einem Versorgungstank direkt an die Brennstoffzelle angeschlossen sein, oder bei Bedarf, von außen nachgefüllt werden. Folglich ist die Brennstoffzelle permanent leistungsfähig. Im Vergleich zu einem Akkumulator, der nach Entladung entweder neu geladen oder ausgetauscht werden muss, gewährleistet die Brennstoffzelle eine zyklenfreie Energieversorgung und somit eine über lange Zeiträume konstante Transporttemperatur.Fuel cells are characterized by their high energy density. Have a relatively light weight they are relatively high Performance compared to other mobile energy sources, such as Accumulators. The fuel required for operation, e.g. hydrogen or methanol can be connected directly to the fuel cell in a supply tank be, or if necessary, refilled from the outside. As a result, the fuel cell is always powerful. in the Compared to an accumulator that is either new after discharge the fuel cell ensures that it needs to be charged or replaced a cycle-free energy supply and thus a long-term one periods constant transport temperature.
