Abstract

A thermally insulating apparatus (100) operatively configured to thermally insulate therein for a period of time, comprising, an outer shell (10); and an internal thermal assembly (40), positionable within the outer shell. The internal thermal assembly comprises a frame sub-assembly cooperating with the outer shell to define a plurality of outer cavities and at least one internal cavity (11); and, a plurality of insulating members (60), at least one of the plurality of insulating members (60) being positionable within each of the plurality of outer cavities.
