Definitions

  • a container for transporting refrigerated and / or frozen products with two separate cooling chambers for holding refrigerated or frozen products wherein the cooling chambers can be closed by a common lid.
  • the cover two coolant chambers for receiving dry ice are arranged, which are connected via fluid lines to one another, to the other in each case with a cooling chamber.
  • a removable partition may be disadvantageous in particular scenarios. If the container, for example, by a first user filled exclusively with products to be cooled, which is why the first user takes out the partition, and then sent to a second user, this can not easily the container - especially without him the first user to give the previously removed partition or the second user a suitable Divider is present - for simultaneous use for refrigerated and frozen products use.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a container in which the disadvantages of the prior art no longer occur or only to a lesser extent.
  • the invention relates to a container for the transport of refrigerated and / or frozen products with at least two separate cooling chambers for holding refrigerated or frozen products, wherein the access openings of the individual cooling chambers are arranged in a common plane and selectively closed by a common cover, wherein the cover has at least one coolant chamber for receiving coolant and, starting from each of the at least one coolant chamber, at least one fluid line to the side of the cover facing the cooling chambers when closing, and the cover for closing can be arranged in at least two different positions on the container the fluid lines terminating in the first position in a first single cooling chamber in the second position do not all terminate in the first or a second individual cooling chamber.
  • the invention further relates to a use of the container according to the invention, wherein the lid is arranged in the second position on the container.
  • the assignment of the fluid lines between the at least one coolant chamber and the at least two cooling chambers can be changed by selectively disposing the cover on the container in one of the at least two different positions. It is essential that not all fluid lines, all of which end in a specific single cooling chamber in the first position, all in a second (in the same or another) specific individual cooling chamber in the second position again. For example, in a container having two cooling chambers, not all fluid lines terminating in the first position in the first chamber may end up in the second position all in the first or the second chamber; Rather, a part of said fluid lines in the first, another part in the second chamber to end. It is irrelevant whether the affected fluid lines emanate from a single or several different coolant chambers.
  • the assignment of the fluid lines to the individual cooling chambers when closing the container with the lid can be changed by the choice of the position with which the lid is placed on the container, an increased flexibility with respect to the prior art in terms of temperature achieved the individual cooling chambers and in particular the temperature difference between the individual cooling chambers.
  • all fluid lines emanating from a coolant chamber can end in the first position of the cover in a single first cooling chamber, while the fluid lines in a second position each half in the first cooling chamber and a second cooling chamber end. In the first position, it is then possible, for example, to achieve a sufficiently low temperature for deep-freezing (for example from -24 ° C.
  • both cooling chambers can be cooled to a sufficient temperature for cooling (eg. 5 ° C to 7 ° C) (a possibly existing second coolant chamber can remain free of coolant).
  • a sufficient temperature for cooling eg. 5 ° C to 7 ° C
  • a possibly existing second coolant chamber can remain free of coolant.
  • a removable partition as provided in the prior art, is not required for this purpose. Rather, it is preferred if the configuration of the cooling chambers is immutable, that is, in particular no optionally removable configuration elements, such as, for example, partitions, are provided.
  • At least two fluid lines are provided and all of the at least one coolant chamber outgoing fluid lines in the first position of the lid when closing in the same coolant chamber and terminate in the second position of the lid when closing the outgoing from a coolant chamber Fluid lines), preferably in equal parts, in at least two different cooling chambers end.
  • the number of fluid lines ending in the second position in the different cooling chambers is the same in each case.
  • Two of the at least two positions of the lid are preferably angularly different positions by 180 °.
  • the angle is thereby formed about an axis perpendicular to the common plane of the access openings. More preferably, the angle between the two positions is an integer multiple of an integer part of 180 ° ( i ⁇ 180 ° / j with i . j ⁇ N > 0 ). More preferably, the angle between the two positions is 90 °.
  • the outer contour of the lid is preferably symmetrical about at least one plane perpendicular to the common plane of the access openings.
  • a corresponding symmetry - which relates to the lid in the arranged state on the container - can be easily ensured that the lid can be fastened in at least two different angular positions on the container.
  • the angular position of the plane of symmetry changes between the two positions according to the angle between the angle-different positions.
  • the inner structure of the lid - in particular the design of the coolant chambers and the fluid lines - is, however, usually not symmetrical about the plane of symmetry for the outer contour.
  • the lid has the shape of a regular polygon, preferably a square, or a circle.
  • a corresponding shape meets the requirements described above for the surface symmetry and is easy to manufacture.
  • the cover has two or more coolant chambers, preferably a number of coolant chambers corresponding to the number of cooling chambers, wherein preferably at least immediately adjacent coolant chambers are fluidly connected to one another.
  • a coolant chamber is assigned directly such that all emanating from a coolant chamber fluid lines each end in a specific cooling chamber.
  • the coolant chamber assigned to the second cooling chamber can also remain free of coolant.
  • the second cooling chamber is then indirectly "co-cooled” due to the fluid communication between the coolant chambers via the coolant in the cooling chamber associated with the first cooling chamber.
  • means for selectively closing at least one of the fluid lines and / or one of the fluid connections between two coolant chambers are provided.
  • the heat exchange between the individual chambers can be influenced.
  • the means for selectively closing may be formed as a plug. But it is also possible that as a means for selectively closing the fluid lines or fluid connections and gate valves are provided in at least a portion of the fluid lines or fluid connections.
  • the container and / or the lid are preferably made of thermally insulating material, preferably foam polystyrene.
  • the coolant chambers are designed to accommodate solid and sublimable coolant, in particular dry ice. Dry ice sublimates at -78.48 ° C. It therefore provides sufficient cooling properties and does not leave behind a molten liquid product which would have to be collected or kept separate from the products to be cooled or deep-frozen.
  • FIG. 1 schematically an embodiment of a container 1 according to the invention for the transport of refrigerated and / or frozen products is shown.
  • the container 1 comprises two cooling chambers 3.1, 3.2 separated from one another by a fixed and, in particular, non-removable partition wall 2, for receiving cooled and / or frozen products.
  • the products can be introduced via access openings 4.1, 4.2 in the cooling chambers 3.1, 3.2 or removed from these.
  • the access openings 4.1, 4.2 are arranged in a common plane at the top of the container 1.
  • the container 1 or the two cooling chambers 3.1, 3.2 can be closed by the common cover 10 optional.
  • the lid 10 is arranged in a suitable position on the container 1.
  • the outer contour of the lid 10 corresponds to a square.
  • Both lid 10 and container 1 are made of foam polystyrene.
  • the cover 10 includes two coolant chambers 11.1, 11.2 for selectively receiving dry ice as a coolant (not shown).
  • the accessibility of the coolant chambers 11.1, 11.2 for filling the coolant is ensured by the removable cover 12 of the lid 10.
  • the two coolant chambers 11.1, 11.2 are interconnected by a fluid connection 13.
  • fluid lines 14.1.1, 14.1.2, 14.2.1, 14.2.2 leading to the container 1 side facing the lid 10 so that they end in one of the cooling chambers 3.1, 3.2, when the lid 10 is disposed on the container.
  • the latter is illustrated by the dashed and dotted lines in FIGS. 1a, b.
  • the lid 10 can be arranged in two 90 ° about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the access openings 4.1, 4.2 angularly different positions on the container 1. The angle between the two positions is 90 °.
  • FIG. 1a the first position of the lid 10 is shown in FIG. 1b the second.
  • cooling of the other cooling chamber 3.2 takes place only indirectly via the one coolant chamber 11.1 through the fluid connection 13, the other coolant chamber 11.2 and the fluid lines 14.2.1, 14.2.2 another cooling chamber 3.2 sets a suitable temperature for cooling, but not for freezing.
  • cooling chamber 3.1, 3.2 In the in FIG. 1a illustrated first position of the lid 10, it is thus possible either to cool either cooling chamber 3.1, 3.2 to a temperature suitable for freezing or one of the two cooling chambers 3.1 to a temperature suitable for freezing, the other cooling chamber 3.2 but only to a suitable temperature for cooling cool. Cooling of both cooling chambers 3.1, 3.2 to a suitable for cooling, but not for freezing temperature is in the first position according to FIG. 1a - Not least due to the non-removable partition 2 - certainly not possible with reasonable effort.
