Description

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Behälter nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a container according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es ist bekannt, bei normalen Temperaturen verderbliche Güter, zum Beispiel verderbliche Lebensmittel wie Fleisch, Butter, Dessert oder dergleichen in einem Behälter der vorliegenden Bauart dadurch kühl zu halten, daß sogenannte Kühlakkus mit dem verderblichen Gut in den Behälter eingepackt werden, wo die Kühlakkus Wärme aufnehmen und dadurch den Behälterinhalt eine Zeit lang kühlhalten.It is known to keep perishable goods at normal temperatures, for example perishable foods such as meat, butter, dessert or the like in a container of the present type, in that so-called cold packs with the perishable goods are packed into the container where the cold packs heat and keep the contents of the container cool for a while.

Vorgenannte Kühlakkus sind allgemein bekannt. Sie bestehen aus einem allseitig geschlossenen Gehäuse, insbesondere Kunststoffgehäuse, in dem ein Kühlmedium großer Wärmespeicherkapazität aufgenommen ist.The aforementioned cold packs are generally known. They consist of a housing that is closed on all sides, in particular a plastic housing, in which a cooling medium with a large heat storage capacity is accommodated.

Die vorbeschriebene Handhabung bei einem bekannten Behälter ist deshalb zu bemängeln, weil die Kühlakkus keinen festen Platz im Behälter haben, beim Packen aus dem Behälter herausfallen können, zwischen das zu verpackende Gut gelangen können und dergleichen mehr. Beim bekannten Behälter bedarf es deshalb einer erhöhten Aufmerksamkeit für die Kühlakkus. Darüberhinaus ist die vorbeschriebene Art zu kühlen deshalb aus hygienischen Gründen unbefriedigend, weil die Kühlakkus in engen Kontakt mit dem zu kühlenden Gut gelangen und je nach Art verunreinigt werden können.The above-described handling of a known container is to be criticized because the cooling accumulators have no fixed place in the container, can fall out of the container during packing, can get between the goods to be packed and the like. In the known container, therefore, increased attention must be paid to the cold packs. In addition, the above-described type of cooling is unsatisfactory for hygienic reasons because the cooling accumulators come into close contact with the goods to be cooled and, depending on the type, can be contaminated.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen eingangs bezeichneten Behälter dahingehend zu verbessern, das eine hygienische Kühlung des darin aufzubewahrenden Gutes einfache und eine Handhabung beim Einbringen des Gutes im Behälter möglich ist.The invention has for its object to improve a container referred to at the outset that hygienic cooling of the goods to be stored therein simple and easy handling when placing the goods in the container is possible.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch das Fennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by the trademark of claim 1.

Bei einer erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung ist der Kühlakku entweder dem Deckel oder dem Gehäuseunterteil fest zugeordnet. D.h. der Kühlakku wird nicht mehr lose in den Behälterinnenraum eingelegt, wobei die eingangs beschriebenen Schwierigkeiten entstehen können, sondern er ist ein Bestandteil des Deckels oder des Gehäuseunterteils, so daß er mit diesen beiden Teilen automatisch vorliegt und es deshalb beim Einbringen des zu kühlenden Gutes keiner besonderen Aufmerksamkeit auf den Kühlakku bedarf. Da der Kühlakku im Deckel und/oder im Gehäuseunterteil enthalten ist, ist es zum Beispiel möglich, den Deckel bzw. das Gehäuseunterteil insgesamt in einem Gefrierschrank zu kühlen. Nach bzw. vor dem Einbringen des zu kühlenden Gutes in den Behälter ist es somit lediglich notwendig, den betreffenden Deckel bzw. das betreffende Gehäuseunterteil aus dem Gefrierschrank herauszunehmen und das Gut in den Behälter einzubringen. Einer besonderen Aufmerksamkeit für den Kühlakku bedarf es hierbei nicht, weil dieser automatisch mit der Zuführung des Deckels bzw. Gehäuseunterteils eingebracht wird.In an embodiment according to the invention, the cold pack is permanently assigned to either the cover or the lower housing part. I.e. The cold pack is no longer loosely inserted into the interior of the container, which can cause the difficulties described above, but it is a component of the lid or the lower housing part, so that it is automatically present with these two parts and therefore no special when introducing the goods to be cooled Attention to the cold pack is needed. Since the cooling battery is contained in the cover and / or in the lower part of the housing, it is possible, for example, to cool the entire cover or lower part of the housing in a freezer. After or before the goods to be cooled are introduced into the container, it is therefore only necessary to remove the relevant lid or the lower part of the housing in question from the freezer and to introduce the product into the container. Special attention is not required for the cold pack because it is automatically inserted when the lid or lower part of the housing is fed.

Für eine ausreichende Kühlung ist es möglich, den Kühlakku dem Deckel oder dem Gehäuseunterteil bzw. beiden Teilen zuzuordnen. Kühltechnisch ist es vorteilhafter, den Kühlakku dem Deckel zuzuordnen, weil beim Temperaturaustausch die Kälte bekanntermaßen sinkt und somit auch der obere Bereich des Behälters mit der herabsinkenden Kälte fortwährend in Kontakt steht und somit verbessert gekühlt wird.For sufficient cooling, it is possible to assign the cold pack to the cover or the lower housing part or both parts. In terms of cooling technology, it is more advantageous to assign the cold pack to the lid because, as is known, the cold drops when the temperature is exchanged, and thus the upper region of the container is in constant contact with the falling cold and is therefore better cooled.

Die Zuordnung des Kühlakkus läßt sich sowohl durch völlige Integration als auch durch stationäre Anordnung verwirklichen. Die Ansprüche 2 bis 6 enthalten Ausführungsformen, die die zuletzt genannte Möglichkeit betreffen. EineHaltevorrichtung für ein Kühlakku gemäß Anspruch 2 ermöglicht, den Kühlakku in bekannter Weise für sich allein, also ohne den Aufnahmeteil (Deckel bzw. Gehäuseunterteil) zu kühlen und für den Gebrauch am Aufnahmeteil zu haltern. Wenn diese Haltevorrichtung lösbar am Aufnahmeteil befestigbar ist, läßt sich das Aufnahmeteil durch eine Haltevorrichtung wahlweise nachrüsten. Außerdem kann die Haltevorrichtung vom Aufnahmeteil entfernt werden, wenn beispielsweise für eine längere Zeit der Behälter ohne Kühlakku benutzt werden soll. Gemäß Anspruch 3 ist eine Haltevorrichtung vorgesehen, die eine Einstecköffnung für den Kühlakku aufweist. Diese Haltevorrichtung stellt gewissermaßen eine Tasche dar, in die der Kühlakku einführbar ist. Damit der Kühlakku im verschlossenen Zustand des Behälters nicht aus der Haltevorrichtung herausfallen kann, ist die Anordnung so getroffen, daß jeweils das Teil des Behälters, dem der Kühlakku nicht zugeordnet ist, die Einstecköffnung sperrt, so daß der Kühlakku nicht herausrutschen kann. Bei einer Ausgestaltung gemäß Anspruch 4, ist die Aufnahmevorrichtung für den Kühlakku durch einen besonderen Behälter gebildet, der durch einen Deckel verschließbar ist.The assignment of the cold pack can be achieved through complete integration as well as through a stationary arrangement. Claims 2 to 6 contain embodiments which relate to the latter option. A holding device for a cold pack according to claim 2 makes it possible to cool the cold pack in a known manner on its own, that is to say without the receiving part (cover or lower housing part) and to hold it for use on the receiving part. If this holding device is releasably attachable to the receiving part, the receiving part can be optionally retrofitted by a holding device. In addition, the holding device can be removed from the receiving part if, for example, the container is to be used for a long time without a cold pack. According to claim 3, a holding device is provided which has an insertion opening for the cold pack. This holding device effectively represents a pocket into which the cold pack can be inserted. So that the cold pack cannot fall out of the holding device in the closed state of the container, the arrangement is such that the part of the container to which the cold pack is not assigned blocks the insertion opening, so that the cold pack cannot slide out. In an embodiment according to claim 4, the receiving device for the cold pack is formed by a special container which can be closed by a lid.

Bei den Ausgestaltungen gemäß Anspruch 5 und 6 ist der Kühlakku unlösbar am jeweiligen Aufnahmeteil befestigt, beispielsweise durch Kleben oder Schweißen. Diese preiswerte Ausführungsform ermöglicht es, ein und dasselbe Aufnahmeteil wahlweise mit oder ohne Kühlakku herzustellen, wobei die Anbringung eines Kühlakkus lediglich eine Ergänzung des für den Verwendungszweck ohne Kühlakku fertigen Aufnahmeteils unfaßt.In the embodiments according to claims 5 and 6, the cold pack is permanently attached to the respective receiving part, for example by gluing or welding. This inexpensive embodiment makes it possible to produce one and the same receiving part optionally with or without a cold pack, the attachment of a cold pack merely supplementing the intended use without the cold pack, the receiving part is unmounted.

Bei den Ausführungsformen nach den Ansprüchen 2 bis 6 ist es vorteilhaft, die Haltevorrichtung bzw. den Kühlakku möglichst flach an das Aufnahmeteil anzupassen, so daß die Haltevorrichtung bzw. der Kühlakku nur unbedeutend in den Innenraum des Behälters hineinragt.In the embodiments according to claims 2 to 6, it is advantageous to adapt the holding device or the cold pack as flat as possible to the receiving part, so that the holding device or the cold pack protrudes only insignificantly into the interior of the container.

Dagegen umfassen die Ausbildungen nach den Ansprüchen 7 bis 9 eine völlige Integration des Kühlakkus, wodurch es möglich ist, das Kühlmedium unmittelbar im Aufnahmeteil aufzunehmen und somit das besondere Kühlakkugehäuse einzusparen. Es ist zum Beispiel in einfacher Weise möglich, das Kühlmedium in einen Hohlraum des Aufnahmeteils aufzunehmen, das in einfacher Weise durch doppelte Wände verwirklicht werden kann. Die Größe des Hohlraums bzw. das Volumen des Kühlmediums ist dabei nach den jeweiligen Erfordernissen zu bemessen. Bei den Ausgestaltungen nach den Ansprüchen 7 bis 9 bildet somit ein Teil das andere. Es ist zum Bespiel denkbar einen plattenförmigen Kühlakku als Deckel zu gebrauchen. Je nach Formgebung kann es dabei vorteilhaft sein, den Kühlakku mit Griff teilen zu versehen, die seine Handhabung erleichtern, zum Beispiel mit Griffrändern, grifförmigen Vorsprüngen- oder Griffausnehmungen.In contrast, the designs according to claims 7 to 9 include a complete integration of the cooling pack, which makes it possible to take up the cooling medium directly in the receiving part and thus to save the special cooling pack housing. For example, it is possible in a simple manner to receive the cooling medium in a cavity of the receiving part, which can be implemented in a simple manner by double walls. The size of the cavity or the volume of the cooling medium is to be dimensioned according to the respective requirements. In the embodiments according to claims 7 to 9, one part forms the other. For example, it is conceivable to use a plate-shaped cold pack as a lid. Depending on the shape, it can be advantageous to provide the cold pack with parts that facilitate its handling, for example with grip edges, grip-shaped projections or grip recesses.

Aus kühltechnischen Gründen ist es vorteilhaft, die vom Kühlakku bzw. Kühlmedium außenseitig gelegene Wand aus einem Werkstoff geringer Wärmeleitfähigkeit zu fertigen, so daß der Wärmeaustausch nach außen möglichst gering ist und somit vermehrt zur Kühlung des Behälterinnenraums zur Verfügung steht.For cooling reasons, it is advantageous to manufacture the wall on the outside of the cooling battery or cooling medium from a material with low thermal conductivity, so that the heat exchange to the outside is as low as possible and is therefore increasingly available for cooling the interior of the container.

Bei der Ausbildung gemäß Anspruch 11 trägt die Formgebung des Kühlakkus bzw. des das Kühlmedium aufnehmenden Aufnahmeteils zur Zentrierung des Deckels auf dem Gehäuseunterteil bei. Bei dieser Ausführungsform bedarf es zur Verwirklichung eines zentrierten Deckels lediglich eines umlaufenden oder mehrerer auf dem Umfang verteilter Anschläge, die den Deckel daran hindern, in das Gehäuseunterteil einzutauchen. Bei dieser Ausführungsform empfiehlt es sich gemäß Anspruch 12, den Umfangsrand des Deckels wenigstens teilweise über den Umfangsrand des Gehäuseunterteils hinaus ragen zu lassen, um Angriffsflächen zu bilden, die das Abheben des Deckels erleichtern.In the embodiment according to claim 11, the shape of the cooling battery or the one receiving the cooling medium bears Receiving part for centering the cover on the lower housing part. In this embodiment, all that is required to implement a centered cover is one circumferential or a plurality of stops distributed around the circumference, which prevent the cover from being immersed in the lower housing part. In this embodiment, it is recommended, according to claim 12, to allow the peripheral edge of the cover to protrude at least partially beyond the peripheral edge of the lower housing part in order to form engagement surfaces which facilitate the lifting of the cover.

Nachfolgend werden vier Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung anhand einer vereinfachten Zeichnung beschrieben.Four exemplary embodiments of the invention are described below with the aid of a simplified drawing.

Der in Fig. 1 allgemein mit 1 bezeichnete Behälter dient zur Aufnahme von kühlzuhaltenden Lebensmitteln, zum Beispiel Butter, Schmalz, Dessert oder dergleichen. Der Behälter 1 besteht aus einem Deckel 2 und einem Gehäuseunterteil 3, das topfförmig ausgebildet ist. Der Deckel 2 übergreift mit einem Rand 4 den Rand 5 des Gehäuseunterteils 3 und ist doppelwandig ausgebildet, d.h. er weist zwei einen Hohlraum 6 zwischen sich einschließende Deckwände 7,8 auf, zwischen denen ein Kühlmedium 9 aufgenommen ist. Der Deckel 2 und das Gehäuseunterteil 3 bestehen aus Kunststoff. Zur Herstellung des Deckels 2 gibt es mehrere Herstellungsarten, die von der Kühlakku-Herstellung her bekannt sind. Es ist möglich, den Deckel 2 zweistückig auszubilden und das Kühlmedium 9 im Hohlraum 6 einzuschweißen. Es ist auch denkbar, das Kühlmedium durch ein nicht dargestelltes Loch in den Hohlraum 6 einzufüllen und das Loch anschließend, beispielsweise durch Schweißen zu verschließen.The generally designated 1 in FIG. 1 serves to hold food to be kept cool, for example butter, lard, dessert or the like. The container 1 consists of a lid 2 and a lower housing part 3, which is cup-shaped. The cover 2 overlaps with an edge 4 the edge 5 of the lower housing part 3 and is double-walled, ie it has two cover walls 7, 8 enclosing a cavity 6, between which a cooling medium 9 is received. The cover 2 and the lower housing part 3 are made of plastic. To make the Cover 2 there are several types of manufacture that are known from the manufacture of cold packs. It is possible to design the cover 2 in two pieces and to weld the cooling medium 9 into the cavity 6. It is also conceivable to fill the cooling medium into the cavity 6 through a hole (not shown) and then to close the hole, for example by welding.

Das zweite Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 3 und 4 unterscheidet sich von dem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel im wesentlichen nur dadurch, daß der das Kühlmedium 9 aufnehmende Hohlraum 6 nicht im Deckel 2, sondern im Gehäuseunterteil 3 angeordnet ist,und zwar zwischen einem doppelten Boden 11. Hier weist der Deckel 2 innenseitig einen umlaufenden oder auf dem Umfang verteilte Nocken 12 auf, durch die seine Höhenstellung gegenüber dem Gehäuseunterteil 3 bestimmt ist.The second exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 3 and 4 differs from the first exemplary embodiment essentially only in that the cavity 6 receiving the cooling medium 9 is not arranged in the cover 2 but in the lower housing part 3, namely between a double bottom 11. Here points the inside of the cover 2 has a circumferential or circumferential cam 12, by means of which its height position relative to the lower housing part 3 is determined.

Beim dritten Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 5 und 6 ist der Deckel 2 durch eine Deckwand 13 gebildet, von der sowohl aufwärts als auch abwärts ringförmige Wände 14,15 ausgehen. Die ringförmige Wand 14 bildet den Rand des Deckels 2, mit dem er das Gehäuseunterteil 3 übergreift. Die ringförmige Wand 15 bildet mit der Deckwand 13 eine topfförmige, nach oben offene Haltevorrichtung 16, in der ein strichpunktiert dargestellter Kühlakku 17 eingesetzt werden kann, und die durch ein Verschlußglied 18 in Form eines die ringförmige Wand 15 übergreifenden Deckels verschließbar ist. Es ist zweckmäßig, das Verschlußglied 18 auf den Deckel 2 zu verrasten, so daß es zur Öffnung der Aufnahmevorrichtung 16 einer bestimmten Kraftanstrengung bedarf. Hierdurch ist gewährleistet, daß beim Abheben des Deckels 2 das Verschlußglied 18 nicht öffnet.In the third exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 5 and 6, the cover 2 is formed by a cover wall 13, from which annular walls 14, 15 extend both upwards and downwards. The annular wall 14 forms the edge of the cover 2 with which it engages over the lower housing part 3. The annular wall 15 forms with the top wall 13 a cup-shaped, upwardly open holding device 16, in which a cold pack 17 shown in dash-dotted lines can be used, and which can be closed by a closure member 18 in the form of a cover which overlaps the annular wall 15. It is expedient to lock the closure member 18 on the cover 2, so that a certain amount of effort is required to open the receiving device 16. This ensures that the closure member 18 does not open when the cover 2 is lifted off.

Der Kühlakku 17 ist form÷ und größenmäßig dem ihn aufnehmenden Raum in der Aufnahmevorrichtung 16 angepaßt,um den Kühlakku und damit seine Katazität so groß wie möglich auszulegen.The cold pack 17 is adapted in terms of shape and size to the space accommodating it in the receiving device 16 in order to design the cold pack and thus its capacity as large as possible.

Die vierte in den Fig. 7 und 8 dargestellte Ausführungsform unterscheidet sich von der ersten Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 1 und 2 im wesentlichen dadurch, daß der Deckel 2 das Gehäuseunterteil 3 nicht übergreift, sondern daß der Deckel 2 mit einem auf seiner Innenseite angeordneten Ansatz 19 etwa schließend in die Öffnung 21 des Gehäuseunterteils 3 einfaßt. Der Deckel 2 ist hier ebenfalls doppelwandig ausgebildet, und zwar mittels der äußeren Deckwand 22 und der inneren Deckwand 23. Die Deckwände 22,23 bilden eine Haltevorrichtung 24 in Form einer Tasche, die einseitig oder beidseitig offen ist und in die ein Kühlakku 17 eingschoben werden kann. In der Verschlußstellung des Deckels 2 ist die wenigstens eine Öffnung 25 der Haltevorrichtung 24 durch das Gehäuseunterteil 3 verschlossen. Deshlab kann der Kühlakku 17 in der Verschlußstellung des Deckels 2 nicht aus der Tasche 24 herausfallen, sondern er ist darin gesichert. In der Fig. 8 ist der Deckel 2 teilweise geschnitten. Der rechte, nicht geschnittene Ansichtsteil zeigt die Öffnung 25, durch die der Kühlakku 17 in die Haltevorrichtung 24 eingeschoben werden kann. Es ist natürlich auch bei der Ausgestaltungsform nach Fig. 8 möglich, einen allseitig geschlossenen und mit einem Kühlmedium gefüllten Hohlraum zwischen den Deckwänden 22,23 auszubilden.The fourth embodiment shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 differs from the first embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2 essentially in that the cover 2 does not overlap the lower housing part 3, but in that the cover 2 with an extension 19 arranged on its inside encloses approximately closing in the opening 21 of the lower housing part 3. The cover 2 is also double-walled here, namely by means of the outer cover wall 22 and the inner cover wall 23. The cover walls 22, 23 form a holding device 24 in the form of a pocket which is open on one or both sides and into which a cooling battery 17 is inserted can. In the closed position of the cover 2, the at least one opening 25 of the holding device 24 is closed by the lower housing part 3. Therefore, the cold pack 17 cannot fall out of the pocket 24 in the closed position of the cover 2, but is secured therein. 8, the cover 2 is partially cut. The right, uncut section of the view shows the opening 25 through which the cold pack 17 can be inserted into the holding device 24. It is of course also possible in the embodiment according to FIG. 8 to form a cavity between the cover walls 22, 23 which is closed on all sides and filled with a cooling medium.

Zur Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 8 ist noch hervorzuheben, daß der Deckel 2 mit einem Umfangsrand 26 auf dem Gehäuseunterteil 3 aufliegt. Dabei überragt der Umfangsrand 26 das Gehäuseunterteil 3 wenigstens auf Abschnitten des Umfangs um ein MaB, das in der Fig. 8 mit a bezeichnet ist. Hierdurch ist gewährleistet, daß der Deckel 2 beim Abheben mit der Hand gespürt und sicher ergriffen werden kann.Regarding the embodiment according to FIG. 8, it should also be emphasized that the cover 2 rests with a peripheral edge 26 on the lower housing part 3. The circumferential edge 26 protrudes the lower housing part 3 at least on portions of the circumference by a measure, which is designated in FIG. 8 with a. This ensures that the lid 2 can be felt by hand when lifting and can be gripped safely.

Die Ausführungsformen nach den Fig. 6 und 8 unterscheiden sich von denen gemäß Fig. 2 und 4 neben unterschiedlichen Formgebungen und Anordnungen wesentlich dadurch, daß gemäß Fig. 6 und 8 ein separater Kühlakku 17 verwendet wird, während bei den Ausgestaltungsformen gemäß Fig. 2 und 4 ein allgemein mit 27 bezeichneter Kühlakku in den Deckel 2 bzw. das Gehäuseunterteil 3 integriert ist.The embodiments according to FIGS. 6 and 8 differ from those according to FIGS. 2 and 4 in addition to different shapes and arrangements essentially in that a separate cooling battery 17 is used according to FIGS. 6 and 8, while in the embodiments according to FIGS. 2 and 4, a cold pack, generally designated 27, is integrated in the cover 2 or the lower housing part 3.

Bei den Ausführungsformen gemäß Fig. 6 und 8 ist es möglich den Kühlakku 17 für sich allein in einem Gefrierschrank zu kühlen bzw bereitzustellen und bei Bedarf den Behältern 1 mittels der Haltevorrichtungen 16,24 beizustellen. Während der Zeit, in der der Kühlakku 17 heruntergekühlt wird, kann der Behälter 1 uneingeschränkt zur Aufbewahrung ohne eigene Kühlung benutzt werden. Dagegen ist bei den Ausführungsformen nach Fig. 2 und 4 die Benutzung des Behälters nicht während der Zeit möglich, in der der hier allgemein mit 27 bezeichnete Kühlakku heruntergekühlt wird. Während dieser Zeit ist nämlich wenigstens ein Teil des Behälters 1 nicht zu gebrauchen, weil es mit dem Kühlakku heruntergekühlt wird. Dagegen besteht ein Vorteil dieser Ausführungsformen darin, daß der Kühlakku 27 nicht verloren gehen kann und er auch keiner besonderen Handhabung bedarf. Das mit dem jeweiligen Kühlakku 27 tiefgekühlte Gehäuseteil 2 bzw. 3 braucht lediglich dem Gefrierschrank entnommen und mit dem jeweils anderen Gehäuseteil zusammengefügt werden.In the embodiments according to FIGS. 6 and 8, it is possible to cool or provide the cooling battery 17 in a freezer on its own and, if necessary, to provide the containers 1 by means of the holding devices 16, 24. During the time in which the cold pack 17 is cooled down, the container 1 can be used without restriction for storage without its own cooling. In contrast, in the embodiments according to FIGS. 2 and 4, the use of the container is not possible during the time in which the cooling battery, generally designated 27 here, is cooled down. During this time, at least a part of the container 1 is unusable because it is cooled down with the cold pack. In contrast, an advantage of these embodiments is that the cold pack 27 cannot be lost and does not require any special handling. The housing part 2 or 3 which is deep-frozen with the respective cooling battery 27 only needs to be removed from the freezer and assembled with the other housing part.

Zwecks einer guten Ausnutzung der im jeweiligen Kühlakku 17,27 gespeicherten Energie ist es bei allen Ausführungsbeispielen von Vorteil, die Wand des Gehäuses, die den Kühlakku 17, 27 außenseitig umgibt, zum Beispiel die äußere Deckwand 7 gemäß Fig. 2, den äußeren Boden 11 gemäß Fig. 4 das Verschlußglied 13 gemäß Fig. 6 und die äußere Deckwand 22 gemäß Fig. 8 aus einem Material mit geringer Wärmeleitfähigkeit zu bilden bzw. mit geringerer Wärmeleitfähigkeit als die Wärmeleitfähigkeit der Wand, die den Kühlakku 17 bzw. 27 innenseitig umgibt, beispielsweise die innere Deckwand 8 aus Fig. 2, der innere Doppelboden 11 aus Fig. 4, die Deckwand 13 aus Fig. 6 und die innere Deckwand 23 aus Fig. 8 zu bilden.In order to make good use of the energy stored in the respective cold pack 17.27, it is advantageous in all exemplary embodiments to have the wall of the housing which surrounds the cold pack 17, 27 on the outside, for example the outer cover wall 7 according to FIG. 2, the outer bottom 11 4 to form the closure member 13 according to FIG. 6 and the outer top wall 22 according to FIG. 8 from a material with low thermal conductivity or with lower thermal conductivity than the thermal conductivity of the wall surrounding the cooling battery 17 or 27 on the inside, for example to form the inner top wall 8 from FIG. 2, the inner double floor 11 from FIG. 4, the top wall 13 from FIG. 6 and the inner top wall 23 from FIG. 8.

Bei den Ausführungsbeispielen gemäß Fig. 6 und 8 kann es aus kühltechnischen Gründen vorteilhaft sein, die Trennwände zwischen dem Kühlakku 17 und dem Behälterinnenraum 28 mit Durchlässen, beispielsweise in Form von Löchern, zu versehen, um den Temperaturaustaushh zu intensivieren. Es ist auch möglich, anstelle der Haltevorrichtungen 16,24,die einstückig an den Deckeln2 ausgebildet sind, durct materialsparende Streben, beispielsweise in Form von Käfigen auszubilden, die gegebenenfalls lösbar, beispielsweise durch Schnellverschlüsse, an den Deckeln 2 zu befestigen sind.6 and 8, it may be advantageous for cooling reasons to provide the partitions between the cooling pack 17 and the container interior 28 with passages, for example in the form of holes, in order to intensify the temperature exchange. It is also possible, instead of the holding devices 16, 24, which are formed in one piece on the covers 2, to form material-saving struts, for example in the form of cages, which can be detachably attached to the covers 2, for example by means of quick-release fasteners.

Im Rahmen der Erfindung ist es auchmöglich, einen üblichen Kühlakku 17 an der Unterseite eines einfachen Deckels z. B. durch Kleben oder Schweißen unlösbar zu befestigen.In the context of the invention it is also possible to use a conventional cold pack 17 on the underside of a simple lid, e.g. B. permanently attached by gluing or welding.
