Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a delivery case for bundling various goods and delivering the same to a normal vehicle.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when an item is delivered to each home or the like, the item is housed in a delivery case corresponding to the item to be delivered, and the delivery case is delivered by a predetermined vehicle. Like that.

[0003] For example, in the case of articles that need to be kept cool, such as meat and fish and shellfish, it is presumed that the articles are pre-cooled and packed in a normal delivery case to control the temperature using a cold storage vehicle (for example, 4). C), or is shipped together with a cold insulator in a heat-insulating delivery case such as Styrofoam, and is usually delivered by vehicle.

[0004] Frozen meat, fish and shellfish are delivered using a vehicle equipped with a freezer while controlling the temperature, or are shipped together with dry ice or the like in a heat-insulating delivery case and delivered using a normal vehicle. I am trying to do it.

[0005] Furthermore, vegetables, bread, snacks and the like that do not need to be kept cool or frozen are placed in a delivery case made of cardboard or the like and delivered without particular temperature control.

[0006] However, with the spread of communication means such as facsimile and the Internet in recent years and the increase of elderly people living alone, the purchasing form of consumers is also changing, and consumers have placed orders for daily necessities while staying at home. Carriers are also increasingly purchasing them to deliver them.

[0007]

However, if such an order is accommodated and delivered in a delivery case corresponding to each item as in the prior art, the transportation cost for each delivery case is reduced. Is charged, and the ratio of the transportation cost to the goods becomes enormous. Therefore, it is desirable to bundle and deliver in a single delivery case for a batch order.

[0008] However, if various items are bundled in a single delivery case and delivered by an insulated vehicle, there is no problem in the case of items that need to be kept cool, but in the case of items that must not be kept cool. May have other problems. For example, in the case of bread, snacks, and the like in foods, when cooled, moisture is generated in the packaging and the taste is reduced.

In addition, when various items are packaged in a single delivery case and delivered by a normal vehicle, if the temperature control is adjusted to meat and fish, the frozen food will be spoiled, and the frozen food will be lost. If combined, there was a problem that meat and fish would not lose their freshness. Also, if the vegetables get cold, they will be spoiled or withered, and will be returned.

[0010] The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and it is possible to inexpensively deliver a variety of items together with a normal vehicle and to reduce transportation costs. The purpose is to provide a case.

[0011]

In order to achieve the above object, in the delivery case according to the first aspect of the present invention, a first room for refrigerated goods in which a cooling material is stored, and a refrigeration product in which a freezing material is stored. A second chamber for articles and a third chamber for storing articles not to be kept cool, each of these chambers being isolated from each other; a heat-insulating integral case body; and a heat-insulating lid for covering the case body. And characterized in that:

In the invention according to claim 2, claim 1 is
