BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cold storage box for food products such as fresh food and fruits and vegetables that require refrigeration.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, although there has been a large-scale specialized or expensive cold-keeping box (case) for transporting foodstuffs such as fresh foods that require refrigeration, a cold-keeping box that can be easily and inexpensively transported by cold storage. There was no.

Therefore, as a method usually used, a regenerator member filled with a chemical substance is housed in a heat insulation box made of an independent foaming resin, and a food item is directly placed above the regenerator member and hermetically sealed. In many cases, they are kept cold.

[0004]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional technique, regardless of the type of food product, the food product is directly cooled. Therefore, there is a problem that some food products are too cold. There was also a problem that the merchandise value of the groceries was reduced due to the movement and scratches of the people.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems of the prior art, and its object is to effectively divide a food storage refrigerating chamber and a food storage cold storage chamber with a simple structure. It is to provide a cold box for food products so that cold transportation of fresh foods and fruits and vegetables can be achieved easily and reliably.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems] To achieve the above object, the technical means of the present invention is to provide a cold-insulating box main body, and a cold storage box and a cold-storage room in which the internal space is disposed inside the cold-insulating box main body. And a food storage member that is divided into two upper and lower parts, a cool storage member that is disposed in the cool storage chamber, and a dew condensation absorbing member that is disposed above the cool storage member to absorb dew condensation. The top plate is provided with a holding recess for food and a ventilation hole is provided to connect the two chambers.

[0007]

[Operation] The food product held in the holding recess of the food product receiving member by the above-mentioned technical means is separated from the cool storage member in the food product refrigerating chamber, and the cool air from the cool storage member passes through the dew condensation absorbing member. The food reaches the lower part of the receiving member, cools the lower part of the receiving member, flows into the food refrigerating chamber through the ventilation holes, and circulates in the refrigerating chamber to cool the food, so that the food is indirectly kept cold.

[0008]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG.
Is not particularly limited in terms of shape and material, but is preferably a material having excellent airtightness and watertightness for keeping cold, for example, well-known independent foamed resin or paper-made material is airtight (processing),
It is preferably watertight (processed), that is, made of waterproof corrugated cardboard (water-repellent corrugated cardboard, water-resistant corrugated cardboard, water-blocking corrugated cardboard, etc.), and the food product receiving member 2 is disposed in the internal space thereof.

The food product receiving member 2 is formed into a shape that fits the cold-insulating box main body 1 and is formed into a low height, and has a substantially box-like shape with an open bottom. Retaining recess 3 for holding foodstuffs f such as fruits and vegetables
, And a desired number of ventilation holes 4 are provided in the top plate 2a, and the lower end portion of the peripheral wall 2b of the ceiling plate 2a is provided at the upper end edge of the cold storage member receiver 5 arranged on the inner bottom of the cold insulation box body 1. Is placed at a substantially intermediate position in the internal height direction of the cold-insulating box main body 1, and the internal space of the cold-insulating box main body is divided into upper and lower parts, the upper part serving as the food refrigerating chamber 8 and the lower part serving as the cold storage chamber 9. To do.

The shape of the holding concave portion 3 of the receiving member 2 is merely an example of a semi-circle, and may be a long groove shape, a rectangular shape, or the like, and the shape, size, and opening of the vent holes 4. The number of holes and the like are also arbitrary.

The cool storage member receiver 5 is a member for arranging the cool storage member 6 and the dew condensation absorbing member 7 therein, and is constructed in a shallow bottom such as a pan. The cold storage member 6 is a well-known one in which the main body 6a is filled with the chemical substance 6b, and it is preferable that the thawing speed is slow, but it is not limited and can be arbitrarily selected.

The dew condensation absorbing member 7 absorbs dew condensation caused by the temperature difference between the food refrigerating chamber 8 and the cold accumulating chamber 9, and is a plate-like member made of, for example, continuous foam synthetic resin, and has an upper surface of the cold accumulating member 6. It is formed to have a size to cover the above, and, for example, continuous foam urethane can be used, but it is optional.

Therefore, the holding recesses 3 of the food receiving member 2 ...
The food items f held by the above are immovably held in the food item refrigerating chamber 8 by the holding recesses 3 and separated from the cool storage member 6.

The cool air from the cool storage member 6 reaches the inside of the peripheral wall 2b of the food receiving member 2 through the dew condensation absorbing member 7,
While cooling the inside of the peripheral wall, the food flows into the food refrigerating chamber 8 through the ventilation holes 4, and circulates in the refrigerating chamber to cool the food, so that the foods f are indirectly kept cold.

[0015]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION Since the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, food is stored in the food refrigerating chamber on the food receiving member.
The cold storage member is immovably held in the holding recess of the receiving member, while the cool storage member is placed in a cool storage chamber below the receiving member in a state of being separated from the food product, and the cool air from the cool storage member is fed through the dew condensation absorbing member to the food. It reaches the lower portion (inside the peripheral wall) of the food receiving member, cools the receiving member, and circulates in the food refrigerating chamber through the ventilation hole to indirectly cool the food.

[0016] Therefore, the overcooling of food by direct cooling, which has been apt to occur when keeping foods such as fresh foods and fruits and vegetables cold, and the scratches and damages caused by rattling during transportation are eliminated. The decrease is suppressed, and as a result,
Easy and reliable cold transportation of goods can be achieved.
