MKI B65D 88/74, publication date 2007.08.27), which is the body of a large-capacity refrigerated container or an isolated universal forty-foot container, in the internal volume of which are located:

- power supply system;

- power management system for refrigeration and heating installations;

- batteries, fuel tanks, compressor.

The specified container is a prototype of the claimed transport thermal container.

The disadvantages of the specified thermal container prototype can also be attributed to the lack of electric winch and additional equipment to ensure quick loading and unloading of cargo.

The proposed transport thermal container (hereinafter the thermal container) is devoid of this drawback.

The thermal container is designed to move and store cargo, for example, an in-line flaw detector, designed for non-destructive testing of trunk pipelines. An electric winch and additional equipment included in the package of this thermal container provide quick loading, unloading and transshipment of cargo to another vehicle. The load inside the thermal container is placed and secured to the wheeled trolley, and the wheeled trolley is fixed to the thermal container by fastening elements. Transportation and storage of the specified cargo (in-line flaw detector) is carried out in all weather conditions. The heating system and thermal insulation of the thermocontainer ensure the temperature of the in-line flaw detector from plus 5 to plus 20 ° С both in the parking lot and when transporting it at any distance and negative outside temperature to minus 45 ° С.

The thermal container is made on the basis of a sea container (any length from 6 to 12 m), which can be transported by road, rail and other vehicles transporting sea containers. This thermal container is a stand-alone product with the ability to quickly mount on a vehicle.

Maintenance of the components of the thermal container is minimized.

The technical result achieved when using this thermocontainer is to provide quick loading, unloading and transshipment of cargo, preferably an in-line flaw detector located on a wheeled trolley, using an electric winch and additional equipment. In-tube trolley

A flaw detector (hereinafter referred to as a flaw detector) is a transportation and storage device (TZU) specially designed for moving and storing a flaw detector.

The design features of the proposed thermal container include:

- thermal insulation from the inside of the walls, doors, floor and roof of the container with multilayer isothermal panels, the structure of which includes extruded polystyrene foam;

- fasteners for the TZU, on which the flaw detector is located, for fixing the TZU during its transportation. The fastening elements include the fixed stops of the front wheels of the TZU, the wheel chocks of the rear wheels of the TZU and the lanyards fastening the TZU.

In addition, the thermal container is equipped with power supply, heating and electrical control panels for the operation of these systems.

Unlike the prototype, the specified thermal container is additionally equipped with an electric winch mounted on a power frame, which is located inside the front wall of the thermal container, an electric winch control panel, a removable unit, a ramp and a ramp for loading, unloading and reloading cargo to another car.

By insulating the thermal container 1 (Fig. 1) with isothermal panels with low heat loss (insulating layer - extruded polystyrene foam) and a high-efficiency heating system (a Webasto autonomous air heater 2 (Fig. 6) with automatic maintenance of the set temperature) is ensured the optimum temperature of the flaw detector 3 (figure 2) in all weather conditions. The heater 2 (Fig.6) is mounted with the direction of the heated air outlet along the long side of the thermal container 1, which provides quick heating of the entire internal air volume. The fuel supply for the heater 2 "Webasto" is carried out from a separate fuel tank located inside the thermal container 1 and closed by a durable casing 4 (Fig.9). The heater 2 (Fig.6) is equipped with highways for exhaust gas from the thermal container 1 and for the intake of external air. The heater 2 is controlled both from the thermal container 1 and from the cab of the towing vehicle. To do this, on the front wall 5 (Fig.7) of the thermocontainer 1 there is an electrical connector 6, to which the heater controller is connected with a special cable.

The heating system of the thermal container also includes two fan heaters with a supply of ~ 220 V from a network with an adjustable power of 3 kW each. These fan heaters can be used in stationary parking as additional heat sources.

In the parking lot, the thermal container 1 (Fig. 1) provides electricity to consumers with a voltage of 220 V at a frequency of 50 Hz from an autonomous gas generator 7 (Fig. 1) or from an external AC network using a cable through an external electrical connector located on the front wall of the thermal container. The cable is designed for a load for power supply of fan heaters, a winch rectifier, a charger, a computer, a flaw detector uninterruptible power supply, etc. The gas generator 7 operates outside the thermal container 1, so there is no need for a line for exhaust gas. All electrical circuits ~ 220 V are protected by circuit breakers and residual current circuit breakers (RCDs) with a trip current of 0.03 A.

The lighting of the thermal container is carried out by fluorescent lamps with a safe supply voltage of 24 V. The lamp is supplied with power from the rechargeable battery 8 (Fig. 9). Nine lamps are divided into three groups, which can be switched selectively in any order from the electrical panel 9 (Fig. 1). Several outlet blocks with protective covers for connecting ~ 220 V electrical appliances are located on the side walls of the thermal container.

Management of the electric winch 10 (Fig. 8) during loading, unloading and overloading of the flaw detector 3 is performed from the remote control panel 11 (Fig. 10), which is connected

cable to the electrical panel 9. The power supply of the winch 10 (Fig. 8) mounted on the power frame 12 (Fig. 9) is supplied from an external network of ~ 220 V or from a gas generator 7 (Fig. 1) through a step-down transformer 13 (Fig. 6) and diode bridge 14. The ripple of the rectified voltage from the diode bridge 14 is smoothed by the battery 8 (Fig.9). If necessary, the winch 10 can be turned on from the battery 8 without connecting ~ 220 V. The capacity of the battery 8 is sufficient to perform one operation of loading, unloading or overloading the flaw detector 3.

The ventilation window 15 (Fig.7) on the front wall 5 is designed to ventilate the thermal container 1 in the summer. Inside the thermal container 1, all walls to a height of 1.7 m are made of corrugated aluminum, and the ceiling and walls above the duralumin sheets are made of white plastic. The floor is covered with steel corrugated sheet. A door can be installed on the side of the thermal container, which can be used if there is no need to open the swing gates. Before transportation of the TZU 16 (Figure 5), in which the load is located (flaw detector 3), it is fixed in the thermal container 1 by the attachment points - turnbuckles 17 and wheel chocks 18. The front wheels of the TZU 16 thus touch the fixed stops 19.

In the thermal container 1, the guides for the wheels of the TZU 16, made of a channel, are fixed to the floor. The thermal container 1 is equipped with a ramp 20 (Fig. 4) to compensate for the difference in height of the floor of the thermal container 1 and the unloading platform, as well as with a ladder 21 for overloading the loading device 16 with a flaw detector 3 from one car to another car.

The loading scheme TZU 16 with a flaw detector 3 in the thermal container 1 from the discharge site is shown in figure 2. To load TZU 16 with a flaw detector 3 into the thermal container 1, the rope 22 of the electric winch 10 is passed through the block 23. The exit 20 is installed and fixed to compensate for the difference in the height of the floor of the thermal container and the unloading platform. The hook 24 of the electric winch 10 is fixed to the TZU 16. The winch 10 is turned on from the control panel 11 (Fig. 10) and the TZU 16 with a flaw detector 3 is loaded into the thermal container 1 (Fig. 2) at a speed of about 3 m / min.

The discharge scheme TZU 16 with a flaw detector 3 from the thermal container 1 to the discharge platform is shown in figure 3. To unload TZU 16 with a flaw detector 3 from the thermal container 1, the rope 22 of the electric winch 10 is passed through the removable block 25. The exit 20 is installed and fixed to compensate for the difference in height of the floor of the thermal container 1 and the unloading platform. The hook 24 of the electric winch 10 is fixed to the TZU 16. The electric winch 10 is turned on from the control panel 11 (figure 10) and the TZU 16 with the flaw detector 3 is unloaded

from the thermal container 1 (figure 3).

In the case when there is no large-capacity truck crane at the place of work (in the field) to unload the thermocontainer 1 with the flaw detector 3 in it from the car or vice versa to load it onto the car, the flaw detector 3 is reloaded from one car to another using electric winch 10. This option is also used with a small size of the site at the place of loading and unloading for the simultaneous placement of the thermal container 1 and TZU 16. Figure 4 shows the location of the first and second cars (26 and 27) when performing reloading TZU 16 with a flaw detector 3 from the car 26 to the thermocontainer 1 located on the car 27. Figure 11 shows the position of the flaw detector 3 in the thermocontainer 1 after overloading from the first car 26 to the second car 27. Reloading the flaw detector 3 from the thermocontainer 1 to the car 26 performed similarly to the circuit shown in figure 3.

With this scheme of reloading from automobile to automobile using electric winch and additional equipment, the time of loading and unloading is reduced.

When connecting the thermal container 1 to the vehicle’s on-board network with a power cable through the electric connector 28 (Fig. 7), the lighting and heating systems work for an unlimited time with the vehicle engine running and refueling.

The thermocontainer 1 in stand-alone mode (without a car and outside settlements) provides the flaw detector 3 with heat and electricity for at least two days without charging the battery 8 and refueling.

From known sources of information the applicant does not know the containers with the proposed combination of distinctive features of the claimed object.

When transporting cargo (flaw detector) in July 2008, this thermal container fully ensured its safety and performance.
