Definitions
- the object of the present invention relates to a on-board refrigeration device to maintain fresh food from storage to delivery to the final consumer.
- Foodstuffs concerned are mainly fresh products processed or unprocessed of animal origin and vegetable.
- the device according to the invention must be able to ensure the preservation of fresh produce at a positive temperature in the range of 0 to +4 degrees Celsius (° C).
- Maintaining the storage temperature must be strictly observed, because the transition to a higher temperature may develop flora microbial and therefore make the consumption of products for the consumer.
- fresh produce is kept at the right temperature in rooms cold during storage and vehicles refrigerated, most often trucks with cold rooms, are used to transport fresh products from their place of storage to the home of customer. Products can also be transported by truck in insulated containers. In that case, these are hermetically sealed and under pressure.
- the goal that aims to achieve the present invention is to remedy the drawbacks aforementioned by providing a little insulated container expensive, simple to carry out, ensuring preservation perfect fresh food and can be easily transported on a light vehicle motorized with two or three wheels or by any other means transport without refrigeration equipment to the place of delivery.
- a container isothermal for storage and transport of products fresh food allowing the maintenance of these products at their storage temperature of preferably between 0 and 4 ° C, including a container fitted on all of its interior faces with a covering in insulating material, said container being characterized by what it includes in addition a diffuser cover provided with an independent cooling source connected to a thermal bridge through a nacelle support enabling said temperature to be maintained storage inside the container for a period determined, and an insulating cover which covers said diffuser cover to thermally insulate all.
- Figure 1 therefore shows an exploded view of a insulated container 1 according to the present invention where all the elements composing it are represented.
- the insulated container includes everything first a tank 2, of parallelepiped shape, preferably polypropylene usable for purposes food
- the tray 2 is designed to be nestable and stackable and includes external dimensions standards.
- the covering 3 made of material insulation is made in one piece and fits the interior shapes of tray 2 perfectly polypropylene.
- a diffuser cover 4 with integrated cooling means is intended to be arranged on top of tray 2 and allows to maintain inside of tank 2 fitted with its material covering insulator 3 at a temperature preferably comprised between 0 and 4 ° C.
- Diffuser cover 4 will be seen more in detail in Figures 2 and 3.
- an insulating cover 5 covers the diffuser cover 4 and makes it possible to thermally isolate the assembly which then forms an isothermal enclosure.
- the insulating cover 5 is preferably formed of polystyrene for food use and can advantageously be provided with two small openings 5 1 and 5 2 respectively on two opposite edges of the cover so that the cover can be easily removed manually.
- the tray 2 further comprises a cover integral with polypropylene 6.
- the cover 6 secured to the tank 2 can then be provided with closing means (not shown) which seal the tray when the cover 6 is closes over to ensure that the chain cold was not broken during transport.
- Figure 2 shows a detailed view of the cover diffuser 4 and in particular cooling means integrated according to section AA of figure 1.
- the cooling means integrated into the cover 4 include a cooling source autonomous 7 arranged on a support nacelle 8 forming an interface between the cooling source autonomous 7 and a thermal bridge 9.
- the autonomous refrigerating source 7 is constituted preferably carbon dioxide in solid form also called dry ice and is at a temperature from -70 ° C approximately.
- the thermal bridge 9 is made with a material having a heat specific low.
- the thermal bridge is made of aluminum.
- FIG 3 shows a top view of the cover diffuser 4 provided with integrated cooling means 7, 8 and 9 where the structure of the thermal bridge 9 appears.
- the thermal bridge 9 is thus implemented by through a set of aluminum bars, attached to the diffuser cover by gluing or by any other suitable means of attachment. All bars of aluminum making up the thermal bridge according to the invention advantageously has a structure in double "H" which extends over the entire length of the diffuser cover 4.
- the support nacelle 8 is then placed on top, so as to cover the two vertical bars 10 and 11 forming the double "H”.
- the two vertical bars 10 and 11 of the thermal bridge allow this way to support the nacelle.
- Other types of structure than that in double "H" previously described can of course be considered without departing from the scope of this invention.
- the thermal bridge 9 actually has the function essential to distribute the temperature evenly supplied by the independent cooling source 7 above polypropylene container where products are stored fresh.
- the good thermal distribution of the temperature supplied by the cooling source in the tank is therefore ensured by thermal bridge 9 having in particular the particular properties mentioned above.
- the temperature of the source standalone refrigerant 7 implementation is too low for the intended use of the insulated container according to the present invention.
- the support nacelle 8 is advantageously made of thermal insulating material.
- thermal insulating material for example, polypropylene is used.
- the support nacelle 8 of the cooling source therefore constitutes a first interface playing the role thermal insulation between the cooling source autonomous 7 and the thermal bridge 9 to reassemble the temperature supplied by the cooling source and so get a smoother spread.
- This characteristic of the support nacelle 8 of the cooling source is obtained thanks to the good insulating properties of polypropylene of which it is incorporated.
- the diffuser cover 4 is in thermal insulating material and constitutes a second interface acting as a thermal insulator between the thermal bridge 9 and the interior of the tank where are stored the fresh products.
- the diffuser cover consists of a plate plexiglass.
- the plexiglass plate forming the cover 4 then allows the temperature supplied to be raised again by the cooling source 7 to then diffuse it to inside the tank so as to obtain the temperature desired storage preferably between 0 ° C and 4 ° C inside the tank.
- the plexiglass plate forming the diffuser cover 4 isolates products stored inside the carbon dioxide released tank by the independent cooling source 7 which could alter some of them. Indeed, under pressure atmospheric, dry ice sublimates and releases carbon dioxide.
- the diffuser cover 4 and the nacelle of support 8 are formed from a single plate of deformable thermal insulating material, preferably a honeycomb polypropylene plate.
- a first operation consists first of all in carrying out the thermal bridge 9 on the polypropylene plate Honeycomb. To do this, aluminum strips glued are arranged on the surface of the plate so as to form the double "H” pattern as already described with reference to Figure 3.
- the duplicate pattern "H” is however intended to extend only over half of the total surface of the plate.
- the first half of the honeycomb polypropylene plate including bridge thermal is shaped so that the area located opposite vertical bands 10 and 11 aluminum forming the double "H" is raised, thus forming the support nacelle 8 for the source self-contained refrigerant 7.
- the second half of the polypropylene plate unformed honeycomb is then folded under the first half of thermoformed sheet so as to come cover the aluminum strips forming the bridge thermal.
- the diffuser cover thus obtained with its thermal bridge and its support nacelle present advantageously the same characteristics as the diffuser cover obtained according to the first mode of embodiment with reference to Figures 2 and 3.
- Figure 4 shows a detail a view of profile of the insulating cover 5 according to section BB of the figure 1.
- the insulating cover 5 made of polystyrene comprises a obviously 10 at the center of its bottom surface in which is the dry ice 7, when putting in place of the insulating cover 5.
- the insulated container obtained by this invention is therefore simple to carry out and allows maintain fresh produce stored at their storage temperature for several hours.
- the integrated cooling means on the diffuser cover are rechargeable and the amount of dry ice placed in the diffuser cover allows user to optimize and modulate the maintenance of the duration of the chain cold as needed.
