Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport container for the transport of temperature-sensitive cargo having an interior for receiving the transported goods, which is bounded by a multi-layer casing comprising at least one latent heat storage layer or at least one latent heat storage element.
  • Temperature ranges from 2 to 25 ° C, especially 2 to 8 ° C as storage and transport conditions are prescribed for various drugs.
  • the desired temperature range can be above or below the ambient temperature, so that either cooling or heating of the interior of the transport container is ercirclich. If the ambient conditions change during a transport operation, the required temperature control may include both cooling and heating. So that the desired temperature range during transport is permanently and demonstrably adhered to, transport containers with special insulation capacity are used. These containers are equipped with passive or active tempering elements. Passive tempering require during use no external power supply, but use their heat storage capacity, and depending on the temperature level to a release or absorption of heat to or from the temperature to be tempered transport container interior. However, such passive tempering are exhausted as soon as the temperature compensation is completed with the transport container interior.
  • latent heat storage which can store thermal energy in phase change materials whose latent heat of fusion, heat of solution or heat of absorption is much greater than the heat they can store due to their normal specific heat capacity.
  • a disadvantage of latent heat storage is the fact that they lose their effect as soon as the entire material has completely gone through the phase change. However, by performing the reverse phase change, the latent heat storage may be recharged.
  • Active temperature control elements require an external energy supply for their operation. They are based on the transformation of a non-thermal energy form into a thermal energy form. The release or absorption of heat is carried out, for example, in the context of a thermodynamic cycle, such. by means of a compression refrigeration machine. Another embodiment of active temperature control elements operates on the basis of the thermoelectric principle, whereby so-called Peltier elements are used.
  • a problem with transport containers of the type mentioned is that the energy input into the transport container during transport is heterogeneous. If the container is exposed to heat radiation, the energy input in the area of the radiation effect is significantly greater than in the areas in which no radiation acts on the container. Nevertheless, the temperature inside the container must be constant and homogeneous within a permissible range Bandwidth are kept. With inhomogeneous energy input there is the problem that the latent heat storage is not consumed homogeneously. Thus, it comes in the interior of the transport container after a certain time to local temperature changes. If the local temperature changes exceed or fall below a certain threshold, the cargo is no longer protected.
  • Transport containers are therefore usually designed so that each page works independently. As a result, each page must be designed for the maximum possible load. However, the energy potential of one area can not be used for another area. If heat radiation acts, for example, from above on the transport container, this energy is absorbed by the latent heat storage element in the upper region in which it passes through a phase transition. Once the phase transition has occurred, the energy enters the interior of the container and causes heating in the upper region of the container. The remaining energy absorption potential of the latent heat storage element in the lower area can not be used. As a result, in conventional transport containers in which the temperature is controlled with latent heat storage elements, each side is independently designed for the maximum expected thermal energy input. However, this leads to a significant increase in weight and / or a significant volume increase. Both lead to a significant loss of efficiency during transport. Most pharmaceutical products are transported by aircraft, where even a small increase in weight or volume leads to significant additional costs.
  • the present invention therefore aims to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages and in particular to maximize the volume of the transport container usable for the transported goods, without impairing the temperature holding capacity. This is intended to reduce the transport costs per weight unit of the item to be transported.
  • the invention provides for a transport container of the type mentioned above, that on the interior facing away and / or that on the interior side facing the at least one latent heat storage layer or the at least one latent heat storage element at least one energy distribution layer of a strong thermally conductive material is arranged. Since at least one energy distribution layer is arranged on the side of the at least one latent heat storage layer or of the at least one latent heat storage element facing away from the interior, the thermal energy acting on the other sides of the container from the outside, eg only on one side of the transport container, in particular as heat radiation, succeeds to distribute.
  • the at least one energy distribution layer arranged radially outside the latent heat storage layer or the at least one latent heat storage element preferably surrounds the interior of the transport container on all sides, so that there is a distribution of the applied thermal energy over the entire circumference of the envelope.
  • the energy thus distributed is transferred to the further inner layers of the vessel wall and leads to a uniform over the extent of the latent heat storage layer or the at least one latent heat storage element consumption of the latent heat storage.
  • the volume of latent heat storage to be provided does not have to be the same as that of each side of the expected maximum energy input, but on the sum of the expected energy input from all sides. Since it can be assumed that not every side of the transport container is individually exposed to the maximum expected energy input, the total volume of the latent heat storage can be reduced.
  • the arrangement of the at least one energy distribution layer on the side facing the interior of the at least one latent heat storage layer or the at least one latent heat storage element causes the thermal energy in the interior of the transport container is homogenized. Warm air that is generated in the interior (for example, due to the setting of warm cargo), always collects in the upper area of the interior, where there is an excessive consumption of the latent heat storage.
  • the energy distribution layer arranged radially within the latent heat storage layer or of the at least one latent heat storage element the thermal energy to be absorbed from the interior can be uniformly distributed to the entire latent heat storage without further aids. Forcing a convection in the interior is thus not required and it can therefore be dispensed with the corresponding fan and the like.
  • the latent heat storage does not necessarily have to completely surround the interior, ie, it does not have to be formed as the latent heat storage layer surrounding the interior on all sides. Rather, it is sufficient to place one or more latent heat storage element (s) locally, ie only on one, two or three sides of the interior to arrange. This achieves a further volume saving.
  • the at least one energy distribution layer can be arranged either radially outside or radially inside the at least one latent heat storage layer or the at least one latent heat storage element, depending on whether the externally acting energy distribution or energy distribution within the interior is in the foreground. Among other things, this depends on the dimensions of the transport container.
  • at least one energy distribution layer is provided radially outside and radially inside the at least one latent heat storage layer or of the at least one latent heat storage element.
  • the two energy distribution layers preferably surround the interior of the transport container on all sides.
  • the circumferential energy distribution is favored in accordance with a preferred development in that on the side facing away from the interior of the at least one latent heat storage layer or the at least one latent heat storage element at least one insulating layer is arranged, wherein the on the interior side facing away from the at least one latent heat storage layer or the at least a latent heat storage element arranged energy distribution layer is preferably disposed between the insulating layer and the latent heat storage layer or the latent heat storage element.

  • One of the energy distribution layers can thereby form the outer surface of the transport container, i. this energy distribution layer forms the outermost layer of the transport container wall.
  • This also includes embodiments in which the energy distribution layer carries a protective layer or a decorative layer on the outside. Such a layer has essentially no effect with respect to the thermal properties of the transport container, but protects the energy distribution layer from external influences, such as e.g. abrasive influences, or serves the realization of labels or the like.

It is also conceivable that the respective energy distribution layer consists of at least two different materials which have a different thermal conductivity.
  • the insulating layer preferably has a conductivity A ⁇ 0.05 W / (m.K), preferably ⁇ 0.03 W / (m.K). Furthermore, the insulating layer preferably has a thickness of 10-200 mm.
  • the insulating layer is preferably formed as a vacuum insulation.
  • the insulating layer preferably comprises at least one cavity which is evacuated.

  • the insulating layer may have a honeycomb-like structure. An advantageous embodiment results when the insulating layer has a plurality of particular honeycomb-shaped hollow chambers, wherein a honeycomb structural element according to the WO 2011/032299 A1 is particularly advantageous.
  • the amount of energy that arrives at the interior of the insulation layer is directly proportional to the surface temperature of the outer energy distribution layer with homogeneous insulation material and insulation thickness.
  • the thickness of the further energy distribution layer preferably depends on the maximum permissible temperature difference in the interior.
  • the energy flow in the further energy distribution layer can be optimally optimized by using different conductive materials, different material thicknesses or openings in the material. Ideally, this layer is designed so that the maximum temperature difference in the interior is less than 5 Kelvin, in particular less than 8 Kelvin.
