Abstract

The invention relates to a device making it possible to transport, autonomously and at a regulated temperature, tubes for specimens or medicaments already cooled to 4 DEG C, maintained electrically by the Peltier effect. It consists of a case 1 made in two parts, hinged together, and of a face forming a cover 2 enclosing an isothermal bell made in two parts 7 and 8. Sealing is performed by a diaphragm 10 defining cavities 9 for receiving the products to be transported. Refrigeration is obtained by a Peltier-effect module 5, the cold inner face of which is in contact with a heat exchanger 6. The hot face is in contact with a static radiator 4. The said module is supplied by batteries 12 regulated by a thermostat with probe 11. The device according to the invention is particularly intended for transporting medical products.

Description

Le présente invention concerne un conteneur réfrigéré autonome. The present invention relates to an autonomous refrigerated container.

Dans le domaine de la recherche médicale : maladies tropicales dans le tiers monde, grands fléaux modernes comme le cancer ou le rida, les échanges de connaissances et de découvertes prennent une dimension internationnele. Les chercheurs du monda entier, les médecins sans frontière et le corps médical de tous les pays du monde su mobilisent pour sauver des vies humaines. In the field of medical research: tropical diseases in the Third World, major modern scourges such as cancer and rida, the exchange of knowledge and discoveries take on an international dimension. Researchers from all over the world, doctors without borders and the medical profession from all over the world are mobilizing to save human lives.

Le transport du sang, de bactéries, de sérums, dc médicaments ou d'organes (multiplicetion des greffes) devient primordial dans cette lutte pour la vie. La réussite des interventions et de la rechercha dépend de la rapidité et de le qualité du transport. I1 s'agit donc de concerver des produite dans de bonnes conditions. The transport of blood, bacteria, serums, drugs or organs (multiplication of grafts) becomes essential in this fight for life. The success of interventions and research depends on the speed and quality of transport. It is therefore a question of keeping products under good conditions.

Il apparait apras divers entretiens, que la majorité dee produits transportés doit impérativement être réfrigérés. It appears after various interviews, that the majority of the products transported must imperatively be refrigerated.

Il apparait aussi que parmi le peu de conteneurs existants, aucun n'supporte une solution efficace au problème soulevé. It also appears that among the few existing containers, none supports an effective solution to the problem raised.

Les méthodes employées jusqu'à présent du type glace pilée, ou la traditionnelle glacière ne permettent aucun contrôle de la température et sont d'une courte autonomie, entraînant le perte du produit. The methods used until now of the crushed ice type, or the traditional cooler do not allow any temperature control and are of a short autonomy, causing the loss of the product.

Le conteneur, selon l'invention permet de remédier å cet incon véniant.  The container according to the invention overcomes this venial inconvenience.

Le conteneur est destiné à transporter à température régulée et de façon autonome, 3 tubes à échantillons, tubes déjà froids (4 C) entretenus électriquement par effet PELTIER. The container is intended to transport at a regulated temperature and autonomously, 3 sample tubes, already cold tubes (4 C) maintained electrically by PELTIER effect.

L'énergie électrique est suffisante pour concerver les produits transportés à 40 C par 30 C extérieur en moyenne, pendant 70 heures. The electrical energy is sufficient to preserve the products transported at 40 C by 30 C outside on average, for 70 hours.

L'isolation thermique est un vase DEWAR. The thermal insulation is a DEWAR vase.

Le refroidissement de la race chaude du modula PELTIER est sans élément un mouvement, ni fluide. Radiateur statique en matériaux conducteurs de chaleur. The cooling of the hot race of the PELTIER module is without movement, nor fluid element. Static radiator in heat conducting materials.

Le fonctionnement est possible dans toutes les positions, dans un volume restreint, type sac de facteur, de manière empliée. Operation is possible in all positions, in a limited volume, postman bag type, in a packed manner.

La régulation est faite par thermostat avec sonde. The regulation is made by thermostat with probe.

L'inversion automatique des polarités du module PELTIER est obtenue en cas de température inférieure d 40 C. Le source chaude étant intérieure, la source froide étant extérieure.  The PELTIER module's polarities are automatically inverted in the event of a temperature below 40 C. The hot source being internal, the cold source being external.

I1 comporte un système de contrdle de la température inférieure du typc " bon ou mauvais ".  It has a lower temperature control system of the "good or bad" type.

La forme extérieure du conteneur comporte un logement destiné à recevoir la marque d'identification pour l'expédition postale. The outer shape of the container includes a housing for receiving the identification mark for mailing.

Longueur maximum 60 cm.Maximum length 60 cm.

Une face d'au moins 10 X 7 cm.One side of at least 10 X 7 cm.

L'alimentation du module thermoélectrique peut etre obtenue par des piles, un voyant de contrbleextérieur au boîtier donne le degrés d'usure de celles-ci ou par batteries rechargeables à d'un bloc de charge incorporé, relié à des moyens de liaisons et une alimentation extérieure. The thermoelectric module can be supplied by batteries, a control lamp outside the housing gives the degree of wear thereof or by rechargeable batteries with an incorporated charging block, connected to connection means and a external power supply.

Il comporte en effet, un boîtier articulé d'une porte permettant l'accès au remplissage du conteneur, d'une clôche is@therme vase DEWAR, d'une plaque d'aluminium permettant l'échange de température, d'un module thermoélectrique et d'un radiateur statique extérieur en profilé d'aluminium, pour la dissipation de la chalcur produite par le module thermoélectrique. It comprises, in fact, a hinged box with a door allowing access to the filling of the container, a bell is @ therm DEWAR vase, an aluminum plate allowing the exchange of temperature, a thermoelectric module and an external static radiator in aluminum profile, for the dissipation of the heat produced by the thermoelectric module.

Il comporte également une réserve pour batteries et un thermostat de régulation thermique. It also has a battery reserve and a thermal regulation thermostat.

Le boitier extéricur peut être réalisé en matière plastique en une seule opération de moulage par injection. The outer casing can be made of plastic in a single injection molding operation.

Selon une variante, le conteneur peut etre muni de deux modules thermoélectriques entraînant deux radiateurs et deux plaques de réfrigération permettant d'augmenter lu volume intérieur de réfrigéretion. According to a variant, the container can be provided with two thermoelectric modules driving two radiators and two refrigeration plates making it possible to increase the internal volume of refrigeration.
