Abstract

Mobile and collapsible insulating insert for storage and transportation containers. The insert has a hood which has connected outside surfaces made of non-foamed, flexible material. The mass and contours thereof correspond to the inside surfaces of the container. The outside surfaces are provided with pockets of non-foamed, flexible material, projecting into the inside of the hood, disposed closely one beside the other and extending over the length of the outside surfaces. The pockets are filled tightly and alternatingly with an open-celled foam plastic and a closed foam plastic. The hood has a releasable closing arrangement, which permits the temporary connection of at least one of the outside surfaces of the hood with the adjacently located outside surfaces of an insulating bottom plate. A fluid-tight bottom trough is attached between the bottom of the storage and transportation container and the bottom plate of the insulating insert.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen mobilen und zusammenlegbaren Isoliereinsatz für Lager- und Transportbehälter.The invention relates to a mobile and collapsible insulating insert for storage and transport containers.

Gegen Temperaturveränderungen empfindliche Güter werden vielfach in Kühlcontainern verfrachtet. Solche Kühlcontainer werden nach der Sandwichbauweise hergestellt und besitzen meistens zwischen einer Aussen- und Innenlaminierung aus verstärktem Polyester einen Kern aus Polyurethanschaum. Solche Container sind relativ schwer und teuer. Insbesondere als Flugfrachtcontainer wirkt sich das grosse Gewicht des Containers nachteilig aus.Goods sensitive to temperature changes are often shipped in refrigerated containers. Such refrigerated containers are manufactured according to the sandwich construction and usually have a core made of polyurethane foam between an outer and inner lamination made of reinforced polyester. Such containers are relatively heavy and expensive. Particularly as an air freight container, the large weight of the container has a disadvantageous effect.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung war, einen Isoliereinsatz zu schaffen, der es erlaubt, auf einfache Weise gewöhnliche Lager- und Transportbehälter, wie beispielsweise aus Aluminium, in Isoliercontainer umzurüsten. Der erfindungsgemässe Isoliereinsatz besteht aus einer Haube, die aus zusammenhängenden Aussenflächen aus nichtgeschäumtem, flexiblem Material, dessen Masse und Konturen den Innenflächen des Behälters entsprechen, besteht und die mit ins Innere der Haube ragenden, eng aneinander angeordneten, über die Länge der Aussenflächen ragenden Taschen aus nichtgeschäumtem, flexiblem Material aufweist, die abwechslungsweise mit jeweils einem Kern aus offenzelligem Schaumstoff und geschlossenem Schaumstoff prall gefüllt sind, und die eine wieder lösbare Verschlussanordnung hat, die es gestattet, mindestens eine der Aussenflächen mit den benachbart liegenden Aussenflächen temporär zu verbinden, einer isolierenden Bodenplatte und einer zwischen dem Boden des Lager- und Transportbehälters und der Bodenplatte des Isoliereinsatzes angebrachten flüssigkeitsdichten Bodenwanne.It was an object of the present invention to provide an insulating insert which makes it possible to convert ordinary storage and transport containers, such as aluminum, into insulating containers in a simple manner. The insulating insert according to the invention consists of a hood which consists of coherent outer surfaces made of non-foamed, flexible material, the mass and contours of which correspond to the inner surfaces of the container, and which has pockets which protrude into the interior of the hood and are arranged close to one another and projecting over the length of the outer surfaces has non-foamed, flexible material, which are alternately filled with a core of open-cell foam and closed foam, and which has a releasable closure arrangement that allows at least one to temporarily connect the outer surfaces with the adjacent outer surfaces, an insulating base plate and a liquid-tight base pan attached between the base of the storage and transport container and the base plate of the insulating insert.

Als nichtgeschäumtes, flexibles Material für die Aussenflächen und Taschen werden zweckmässig Kunststoff-Folien, vorzugsweise PVC-beschichtetes Polyestermaterial. Bevorzugt wird ein Material verwendet, das ein Flächengewicht von 500 bis 800 g/m2 aufweist.Plastic foils, preferably PVC-coated polyester material, are expediently used as the non-foamed, flexible material for the outer surfaces and pockets. A material is preferably used which has a weight per unit area of 500 to 800 g / m 2.

Die Taschen können durch Aufnähen oder Aufschweissen auf die Aussenflächen angebracht werden. Die Grösse der Taschen ist auf die Lager- und Transportbehälter-Dimensionen auszurichten, wobei die zweckmässige Breite für geschlossenzelligen Kern nicht unter 250 mm und für offenzelligen Kern nicht unter 120 mm und in beiden Fällen nicht über 1000 mm liegt. Die Taschen werden abwechslungsweise mit Kernen aus offenzelligem Schaumstoff und Kernen aus geschlossenzelligem Schaumstoff prall gefüllt. Durch diese pralle Füllung, insbesondere des offenzelligen Schaumstoffkernes, werden die einzelnen Taschen eng aneinander gepresst und der Zwischenraum zwischen den Taschen, der durch die Herstellung bedingt ist, praktisch ausgefüllt. Dadurch werden sog. Wärmebrücken verhindert.The bags can be attached to the outer surfaces by sewing or welding. The size of the bags is to be aligned with the dimensions of the storage and transport container, the practical width for closed-cell core not less than 250 mm and for open-cell core not less than 120 mm and in both cases not more than 1000 mm. The bags are filled alternately with cores made of open-cell foam and cores made of closed-cell foam. This plump filling, in particular the open-cell foam core, presses the individual pockets closely together and practically fills the space between the pockets, which is caused by the manufacturing process. This prevents so-called thermal bridges.

Als offenzelliges Material wird zweckmässig Polyurethanschaum oder Polyestervliese verwendet.Polyurethane foam or polyester fleece is expediently used as the open-cell material.

Als geschlossenzelliges Material wird zweckmässig Polyolefin-oder Polyvinylchloridschaum verwendet.Polyolefin or polyvinyl chloride foam is expediently used as the closed-cell material.

Die Verschlussanordnung, die es erlaubt, eine der Aussenflächen mit den benachbarten Aussenflächen zu verbinden und somit ein geschlossenes System zu erreichen, besteht zweckmässig aus Reissverschlüssen oder sog. Klettenverschlüssen.The closure arrangement, which allows one of the outer surfaces to be connected to the adjacent outer surfaces and thus to achieve a closed system, expediently consists of zippers or so-called Velcro fasteners.

Der Boden des Isoliereinsatzes besteht aus einer Bodenplatte. Diese besteht vorzugsweise aus einer isolierten und statisch belastbaren Platte, zweckmässig hergestellt aus einer Sandwichkonstruktion mit Deckschichten aus einer leicht geschäumten Kunststoffplatte und als Kern eine halbharte oder harte Schaumstoffisolation von weniger als 100 kg/m3 Rohdichte. Die lastaufnehmende Seite der Sandwichplatte ist zur Sicherstellung ausreichender Kühlung im unteren Teil der in den Behälter eingebrachten Fracht mit 10 bis 15 mm hohen und ca. 100 mm breiten Rippen aus leicht geschäumtem Kunststoffplattenmaterial versehen. Die Oberfläche der Lastseite weist einen glasfaserverstärkten Kunststoffüberzug auf.The bottom of the insulating insert consists of a base plate. This preferably consists of an insulated and statically resilient plate, suitably manufactured from a sandwich construction with cover layers from a lightly foamed plastic plate and the core is a semi-hard or hard foam insulation of less than 100 kg / m3 gross density. The load-bearing side of the sandwich panel is provided with 10 to 15 mm high and approx. 100 mm wide ribs made of slightly foamed plastic sheet material to ensure adequate cooling in the lower part of the cargo brought into the container. The surface of the load side has a glass fiber reinforced plastic coating.

Zwischen dem Behälterboden und dem Boden des Isoliereinsatzes befindet sich eine wasserdichte Bodenwanne aus flexiblem, nichtgeschäumtem Kunststoff oder beschichtetem Gewebe. Die Bodenwanne kann fest mit dem Boden des Isolierbehälters verbunden sein. Die Wanne kann zur Aufnehme des zusammengefalteten Isolierbehälters und der im nachfolgenden beschriebenen Bodenplatte herangezogen werden.There is a waterproof floor pan made of flexible, non-foamed plastic or coated fabric between the bottom of the container and the bottom of the insulating insert. The bottom trough can be firmly connected to the bottom of the insulating container. The tub can hold the folded insulation halters and the base plate described below are used.

Im weiteren kann an der Dachseite des Isoliereinsatzes eine Aufhängewanne zur Lagerung von Trockeneis angebracht werden, deren perforierter Unterteil zur Kälteregulierung mittels Lappen abgedeckt werden kann. Durch eine an der Frontseite angebrachte, verschliessbare Oeffnung kann bei Bedarf weiteres Trockeneis in die Aufhängewanne eingebracht werden.Furthermore, a hanging trough for storing dry ice can be attached to the roof side of the insulating insert, the perforated lower part of which can be covered with rags for cold regulation. Through a closable opening on the front, additional dry ice can be placed in the hanging tub if required.

Der Isoliereinsatz wird durch mechanische Befestigung, z.B. Verschrauben an ausgewählten Stellen, im Inneren des Lager-und Transportbehälters angebracht. Diese mechanische Befestigung lässt sich wieder einfach lösen, so dass der Lager-und Transportbehälter, je nach Gebrauchszweck, als einfacher Lager- und Transportbehälter oder, versehen mit dem Isoliereinsatz, als Kühllager- und Kühltransportbehälter verwendet werden kann.The insulation insert is made by mechanical fastening, e.g. Bolted to selected locations inside the storage and transport container. This mechanical fastening can be easily released again, so that the storage and transport container, depending on the intended use, can be used as a simple storage and transport container or, provided with the insulating insert, as a cold storage and cooling transport container.
