Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of transport and distribution of thermosensitive products, it is particularly interested in the case of pharmaceuticals and food products.
- cryogenic fluids there is now an alternative to mechanical cold for the refrigeration of closed enclosures (for example transport trucks and refrigeration of goods) constituted by the use of cryogenic fluids.
- closed enclosures for example transport trucks and refrigeration of goods
- cryogenic fluids two solutions have been evoked by this industrial field, using liquid nitrogen as a cryogenic fluid.
- the first technology consists of injecting liquid nitrogen directly into the enclosure ("direct injection") and to realize its vaporization.
- the main advantage of this first technology is the refrigeration performance of the system; indeed, the first warming up of the chamber takes a few minutes and the temperature drop after each door opening is almost instantaneous after direct injection of liquid nitrogen into the chamber.
- the second technology uses a heat exchanger (for example a simple coil), in which circulates a cryogenic fluid, the enclosure is also provided with an air circulation system (fans) putting this air in contact with the cold walls of the exchanger, which thus allows the air to cool.
- a heat exchanger for example a simple coil
- fans air circulation system
- the present invention is concerned with the case of direct injection, and wishes to propose a new approach to managing access to such a confined space and cooled by the direct injection of a refrigerant gas, by driving the renewal of the atmosphere to find an oxygen content allowing the entry of an operator in this space.
- the introduction of oxygen sensors allows a measurement in different points but it raises several delicate questions, on the one hand the reliability of the measurement, on the other hand of the distribution in the enclosure in particular according to the configuration of the load in the enclosure and the reliability of these measurements in very cold enclosures (typically -20 0 C or even reaching -60 0 C) and finally the frequent need to perform calibrations.
- the present invention proposes a new method for managing access to such a confined space cooled by the direct injection of a cryogenic fluid (for example of the truck or container type). transport and / or refrigeration of thermosensitive products such as pharmaceuticals or food products), according to which the following measures are implemented: at least one closure system of the confined space, capable of preventing access to this confined space,
- a data acquisition and processing device capable of: a) controlling the open or closed nature of said closure system; b) to ensure, after each closure of said closure system, a timer (TP) after which the injection of cryogenic fluid into space is restarted; c) and at the request of a user, to set up the following cycle of opening of said closure system: i) the device evaluates the elapsed time (TE) in the closed position, that is to say the time elapsed since the last closure cycle of the closure system and compares TE to said timer TP; j) if TE ⁇ TP the opening of said closure system is immediately authorized by the device, whereas if TE> TP the opening of said closure system is authorized by the device after a predefined waiting time.
- TE elapsed time
- the confined space closure system able to prevent access to this confined space, has a degree of opening / closing which is variable and controllable
- the data acquisition and processing device is also able to set and control the degree of opening / closing of said closure system.
- the atmosphere of the confined space is renewed to make it breathable by an operator, in particular by means of a ventilation and / or extraction system. , preferentially implementing a flow control.
- adjusting the ventilation or extraction delay as a function of the time elapsed since the last closing cycle of the door makes it possible in particular to adapt to the different logistical configurations encountered, and for example to adapt very effectively to the common cases where the unloading of a product transport truck at the point of arrival (for example a customer) will be done in stages, lots being unloaded and delivered in several times.
- this management implements an impassable barrier forming an air intake in partial open state.
- the physical barrier (“opening / closing system”) with variable (partial) opening here fulfills two functions, that of physical barrier prohibiting access when that is necessary, and that of air intake for the renewal of the atmosphere since the barrier is variable opening rate and controllable (for illustrative purposes the data acquisition and processing device may allow a partial opening of the door with an opening of 10cm for example, the air can circulate, but the entry of a person is made impossible, which of course is extremely safe).
- Adjusting the ventilation or extraction delay according to the time elapsed since the last closing cycle of the door makes it possible to adapt to the various logistical configurations encountered, to adjust safely the renewal time of the door. atmosphere, to limit the consumption of refrigerant; not rely on any analytical control of the atmosphere; to obtain a homogeneous atmosphere in the confined space.
- the opening / closing system of the enclosure constituting the physical barrier, can be of very variable type: for example a lifting door (of the pull-down type), or a door with leaves, and the system may constitute the main insulating or non-insulated secondary door.
- the system After each closing of the door, the system starts a timer TP. When this time has elapsed, the injection of the cryogenic fluid begins.
- the system evaluates the elapsed time TE, and:
- the system had authorized the injection of cryogenic fluid, and the enclosure is therefore when such a request in a cooled or partially cooled state and the interior atmosphere has a lowering of the residual oxygen content related to the elapsed injection time.
- the partial opening of the door for example controlled by a pneumatic cylinder and an associated position controller as well as a controller of the opening / closing rate of the door
- the launch of the renewal of the atmosphere in the enclosure (commissioning of the fan (s) / extractor (s)
- the automatic choice by the control system of use of fans and / or extractors depends in particular on the indoor temperature and outdoor temperature, according to whether the temperature ratio is greater than 1 or less than 1, the control system for the management of the atmosphere will establish the operation in extraction mode or ventilation mode;
- the control system orders the lighting of a green indicator light indicating the access authorization to the speaker ie indicating to the operator that he can proceed to the complete opening of the door: action on the control button of the opening.
- the driver may only take four trolleys when he must deliver eight, he closes the door while he arranges the first four trolleys on the tailgate, and proceeds to their delivery.
