An internal space 13 that is a space surrounded by the plate-like portion 19 is formed inside. The plate-like portion 19 is fixed to the frame member 30.

  The shapes of the top plate portion 10 and the bottom plate portion 11 are substantially the same, and the long side 15 that is a pair of opposing sides is longer than the short side 16 that is the other two sides, and has an elongated rectangular shape. Moreover, the side-plate part 12 arrange | positioned at the short side 16 side becomes the door part 17 which can be opened and closed, and can be opened and closed as needed. When loading / unloading cargo into / from the internal space 13, the door portion 17 is opened, and when transporting, the door portion 17 is closed. And in the state which closed the door part 17, the internal space 13 becomes substantially sealed shape.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a temperature adjusting device 18 is provided in the internal space 13 of the heat insulating box 1. The temperature control device 18 can maintain the temperature in the internal space 13 at a predetermined temperature, and is specifically a refrigerator. And when transporting using the heat insulation box 1, the temperature control apparatus 18 can be operated as needed and the temperature of the internal space 13 can be maintained at predetermined | prescribed temperature.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the structure of the side plate portion 12 includes a double metal plate 20 constituted by an inner plate 22 and an outer plate 23, and a heat insulating layer 21 constituted by a vacuum heat insulating material 25 and a foamed resin portion 26. It is made up of. The heat insulating layer 21 is arranged in a heat insulating layer arrangement space 27 formed between the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23.

  The inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23 are flat steel plates. As the material of the steel plate, a material having excellent corrosion resistance such as aluminum or stainless steel can be used.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23 are formed with deformed portions 28 extending in the vertical direction. The deformation part 28 is a part formed by bending, is formed so that the heat insulation layer arrangement space 27 side protrudes, and has a shape in which the outside is recessed. And the part other than the deformation | transformation part 28 becomes the plane part 29 which is planar shape, and the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is adhere | attached on the plane part 29 so that it may mention later. The deformation portion 28 can be formed by pressing or the like.

  In addition, the deformation | transformation part 28 can also be formed by a curve other than the method of bending.

  A plurality of the deforming portions 28 are formed so as to have a predetermined interval, and are arranged throughout. Therefore, when a compressive force is applied to the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23 in the direction (vertical direction) along the deformed portion 28, or when a bending stress is applied in the direction in which the deformed portion 28 is curved, higher strength is obtained. Become.

  The deformation portions 28 of the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23 are formed so as to extend in the vertical direction, and these directions are in a parallel relationship.

  Further, the deforming portion 28 extends in the entire vertical direction, and is in a state of dividing the left and right plane portions 29.

  As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the vacuum heat insulating material 25 covers a core material 43 formed by compression molding a fiber material with outer covering materials 41 and 42 having gas barrier properties. The covered interior is decompressed.

  The jacket materials 41 and 42 are rectangular sheets having a gas barrier layer, a heat-welded layer, and a protective layer. The gas barrier layer is a metal foil such as aluminum or a metal or non-oxide deposited film. The heat-welded layer is formed by laminating a film such as unstretched polypropylene as a heat-welded layer on the inner surface side of the gas barrier layer. The protective layer is a laminate film in which a film such as nylon or polyethylene terephthalate is laminated on the outer surface side of the gas barrier layer.

  The core material 43 can maintain a void even when compressed, and is formed using a fiber material or the like. When the core material 43 is formed using a fiber material, inorganic fibers such as glass wool and glass fiber are preferable.

  And the vacuum heat insulating material 25 overlaps the jacket materials 41 and 42, heat-welds the circumference so that a part becomes an opening, and further inserts the core material 43 into the bag, The opening is heated and welded in a state where the inside of the bag is decompressed from the opening.

  As shown in FIG. 4A, the manufactured vacuum heat insulating material 25 has four fins that are portions that are heated and welded on the sides of the jacket materials 41 and 42 as shown in FIG. Portions 25c, 25d, 25e, and 25f are formed.

  The core material 43 is divided into a plurality of regions 43 a, and a partition 46 is formed between adjacent regions 43 a of the core material 43. The partition portion 46 is a portion where the covering materials 41 and 42 are overlapped and closely adhered to each other, and is heat-welded in the same manner as the fin portions 25c, 25d, 25e, and 25f around the covering materials 41 and 42. And it will be in the state which does not flow through the partition part 46 and between the area | regions 43a which the core material 43 adjoins, and each area | region 43a is the airtight state independently.

  The partition 46 is easy to deform because there is no core material 43. Therefore, when a force that causes the whole to bend acts, even if the core material 43 that is difficult to bend does not bend, the bend is caused by the partition portion 46, so that the entire shape can be curved. Therefore, it is easy to work when producing the plate-like portion 19, and even when the metal plate 20 is deformed when the heat insulating box 1 is used, it is difficult to form a gap between the vacuum heat insulating material 25. .

  In the vacuum heat insulating material 25 of this Embodiment, the area | region 43a of the core material 43 is in the state located in a line. Then, as will be described later, the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is arranged so as to be in the horizontal direction so as to cross the direction in which the regions 43 a of the core material 43 are arranged with respect to the direction in which the deformable portion 28 extends. In addition, it is also possible to use a state in which the regions 43a of the core material 43 are arranged in a lattice shape with two or more rows of the regions 43a of the core material 43 being arranged.

  Further, the interval between the partition portions 46 is formed in accordance with the interval between the deformed portions 28 of the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23. When the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is fixed, as shown in FIG. Is arranged in the deformed portion 28 of the inner plate 22 or the outer plate 23.

  The vacuum heat insulating material 25 is arrange | positioned at both the inner side board 22 and the outer side board 23, and is being fixed with the adhesive agent as FIG. 5 shows. Specifically, each region 43 a of the core material 43 is disposed on the flat plate portion 29 of the inner side plate 22 and the outer side plate 23, and is not disposed on the deformation portion 28.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the partition 46 of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is located in the deformed portion 28 of the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23, and the vacuum heat insulating material 25 has the deformed portion 28. It is arranged to cross.

  The foamed resin portion 26 is formed using a material that can be foamed and cured while filling a fluid resin, and can be shaped to fit the space that can be filled. As a material used for the foamed resin portion 26, a urethane resin material is used, but other materials may be used.

  The method of forming the side plate portion 12 is as follows.

  First, an adhesive is applied to both the front surface 25 a and the back surface 25 b of the vacuum heat insulating material 25. The type of this adhesive is not limited, but when a urethane resin material is used for the foamed resin portion 26, a urethane-based adhesive layer 50a on the adhesive surface between the surface 25a of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 and the foamed resin portion 26 is used. When an adhesive is used, the adhesion between the surface 25a of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 and the foamed resin portion 26 is good.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the vacuum heat insulating material 25 having an adhesive applied to both the front surface 25 a and the back surface 25 b is attached to the heat insulating layer arrangement space 27 side of the inner plate 22. At this time, the arrangement direction of the regions 43a of the core material 43 of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is set to be the direction in which the deformable portions 28 are arranged.

  In addition, the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is attached such that each region 43a of the core material 43 is disposed on the flat surface portion 29 and the partition portion 46 is the deformed portion 28, and the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23 are Provided on both sides.

  It should be noted that an adhesive is applied in advance to the inner surface of the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23 (the surface on the heat insulation layer arrangement space 27 side), so that the space between the foamed resin portion 26 and the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23 is reduced. The strength of can be made high.

  After attaching the vacuum heat insulating material 25, the inner side board 22 and the outer side board 23 are fixed in the state which becomes a predetermined space | interval. This fixing is performed by welding to the frame member 30 or the like. The foamed resin portion 26 is formed by foaming and curing the heat insulating layer arrangement space 27 formed between the inner plate 22 and the outer plate 23 while filling the fluid resin. When the fluidized resin is filled in the heat insulating layer arrangement space 27, it is injected from an injection hole (not shown) provided in the inner plate 22 or the outer plate 23, and the state shown in FIG. 6 is obtained. . Then, the injected resin is cured while foaming and is shaped to fit the heat insulation layer arrangement space 27, so that no gap is formed in the heat insulation layer arrangement space 27.

  At this time, as shown in FIG. 5, even if the gap 46a is formed between the partition 46 and the metal plate 20, as shown in FIG. When pushed, the space of the gap 46a is almost gone.

  The structure of the top plate part 10, the bottom plate part 11 and the other side plate part 12 of the heat insulation box 1 of the present embodiment is also the same as that of the side plate part 12 described above, and is manufactured by the same method. Then, the plate-like portion 19 is used to form a box shape, and the internal space 13 is formed. In addition, the deformation | transformation part 28 of the top-plate part 10 or the baseplate part 11 is formed so that it may extend in the direction parallel to the short side 16. FIG.

  Furthermore, the heat regulation box 1 is completed by disposing the temperature control device 18 in the internal space 13 near the side opposite to the side plate portion 12 where the door portion 17 is provided.

  In the vacuum heat insulating material 25 of said heat insulation box 1, since it arrange | positions in the heat insulation layer arrangement | positioning space 27 formed between the inner side board 22 and the outer side board 23, heat insulation can be improved. Moreover, since the core material 43 of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is divided into a plurality of regions 43a and provided with the partition portions 46, the entire shape can be easily bent. Further, by disposing the vacuum heat insulating material 25 so that the partition 46 becomes the deformed portion 28, a large area can be covered using the large vacuum heat insulating material 25, and the heat insulating box can be formed with a small number of vacuum heat insulating materials 25. The body 1 can be manufactured.

  Moreover, in the said heat insulation box 1, since the core material 43 of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is divided | segmented into the some area | region 43a and each area | region 43a is the airtight state independently, it is a part of jacket material 41,42. Since the vacuum can be maintained in the other part region 43a even in the case of damage, the deterioration of the heat insulating property can be minimized in such a case. In addition, when the plate member 19 is repaired, a part of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 may be damaged, and in such a case, a decrease in heat insulation can be minimized.

  Further, like the side plate portion 12 shown in FIG. 7, the interval between the partition portions 46 of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is shortened to be about half of the interval between the deformation portions 28, and the core material disposed between the deformation portions 28. 43 of the core 43 disposed between the deforming portions 28 by arranging two regions 43a in two locations, disposing some partition portions 46 in the deformable portion 28 and disposing other partition portions 46 in the flat portion 29. There can be two regions 43a. Furthermore, it is good also considering the area | region 43a of the core material 43 arrange | positioned between the deformation | transformation parts 28 as three or more places.

  The arrangement direction of the region 43a of the core member 43 of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 according to the above-described embodiment is the direction in which the deformable portion 28 is arranged and is perpendicular to the direction in which the deformable portion 28 extends, and the vacuum heat insulating material. 25 is arranged so as to cross the deformed portion 28, but as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the deformable portion 28 extends in the arrangement direction of the region 43 a of the core member 43. They can be arranged along the direction and arranged in the vertical direction. In this case, the vacuum heat insulating material 25 can be disposed between the deforming portions 28 such that the width of the vacuum heat insulating material 25 is adjusted to the size of the flat portion 29 between the deforming portions 28. Furthermore, what arrange | positioned the area | region 43a of the core material 43 in the grid | lattice form made into two or more rows can be used.
