Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a container for preserving and transporting perishable foodstuffs, such as fresh fish for example.
  • a container for preserving and transporting perishables which consists of a body formed with walls of insulating material within which a casing of high thermal capacity is inserted, the walls of the insulating body being lined with said casing.
  • a container for preserving and transporting perishable generally identified by 10 consists of a box-shaped body 11 of insulating material and a casing 12 of high thermal capacity, lining the box-shaped body 11.
  • the box-shaped body 11 comprises side walls 13 defining the upper edge 14, a lower bottom 15 and an upper closing cover 16.
  • the side walls 13 and bottom 15 define a hollow space 17 within the body 11.
  • the casing 12 intended to receive the goods to be preserved comprises side walls 18, a lower bottom 19 and an upper closing cover 20.
  • the walls 18, 19 and 20 can be mutually assembled so as to define a hollow space 21 for receiving the goods.
  • the casing of high thermal capacity 12 is housed within the hollow space 17 of the insulating body 11 and it covers the inner sides of the walls 13, 15, 16 of said body.
  • the walls 18, 19, 20 of the casing 12 can be made to advantage, as shown in Fig. 2, from a double plate of plastic material, polyethylene for example, delimiting an inner interspace 22 filled with fluid of high thermal capacity, such as an eutectic mixture having a predetermined freezing temperature substantially corresponding to the temperature that one intends to keep in the container.
  • fluid of high thermal capacity such as an eutectic mixture having a predetermined freezing temperature substantially corresponding to the temperature that one intends to keep in the container.
  • the eutectic mixture can be a mixture of water and the following products in the below stated percentages: sodium mg/l 3 ⁇ 5 calcium mg/l 30 ⁇ 50 potassium mg/l 3 ⁇ 8 magnesium mg/l 5 ⁇ 10 sulphate mg/l 30 ⁇ 50 silicon mg/l 10 ⁇ 20
  • the above mixture has a freezing temperature of -2°C.
  • the walls 13, 15, 16 of the box-shaped body 11 can be made of a known thermally insulating material of low cost such as foamed polyurethane or polystyrene of a thickness appropriate to ensure the desired thermal insulation and a convenient solidity to the body itself.
  • the casing 12 can be advantageously formed of wall elements 18, 19 hinged to each other along the separation lines between the bottom 19 and walls 18.
  • the casings 12, when the containers 10 are not used, or during the cooling step of the eutectic mixture, can be drawn out of the box-shaped bodies 11, flattened and stored arranged in a stack, their bulkiness being therefore greatly reduced.
  • the wall elements can be made as separate pieces joined to each other by pivot hinges or can be obtained from a double flat plate the pivoting lines 26 of which consist of appropriate scores enabling bending, which are made in the plastic material forming the plate. In a simple manner, said scores may be replaced by the welding lines between the two walls forming the interspaces.
  • the cover 20 too can be optionally made as a portion hinged on one of the walls 18.
  • the lower portion of the container can be advantageously provided with housings 23 for receiving grasping members of handling means, the forks of a lift truck for example.
  • the cover 16 of the box-shaped body 11 can be provided with an appropriate shaping (a stepped shaping for example as shown at 24 in the figures) to enable fitting of same on the upper edge 14 of the walls 13.
  • an appropriate shaping a stepped shaping for example as shown at 24 in the figures
  • the cover 16 can be separated from the walls of the box-shaped body 11, as shown in Fig. 1, and insertable thereon by pressure or restrained coupling, or can be linked to one of the walls 13 by means of a hinge 25, as shown in dotted line in Fig. 2.
  • the use cycle of the container according to the invention will be now briefly described.
  • the casing 12 having high thermal capacity is previously cooled to a temperature at which the eutectic mixture is in the solid phase.
  • the casing 12 is inserted in the hollow space 17 of the insulating box-shaped body 11 and filled with the goods to be preserved and transported, previously cooled to the preservation temperature.
  • the container While the goods stay in the container, heat from the external atmosphere is used to heat the eutectic mixture and cause its change from the solid to the liquid state; the temperature within the container therefore keeps substantially uniform and constant at all points thereof until the eutectic mixture has completely melted. During this step the container can be handled until its being stored in a refrigerating environment.
  • the casing 12 When the goods are drawn out of the container, the casing 12 can be removed, washed and newly cooled in view of a new use of same. If the insulating box-shaped body 11 has been damaged during transportation, it can be replaced without involving too high expenses, given its low production cost.
  • a container according to the invention enables the organoleptic properties of perishable goods to be safeguarded during preservation and transportation of same, while other advantages are also achieved, such as a high degree of hygiene of the goods and a quick handling in passing from a carrier to another.
  • the container according to the invention is in addition very strong and, since it is of simple structural construction, can be made at low prices.
  • the container can have forms different from those shown, depending on particular preservation and transportation requirements for specific goods.
