Definitions

  • the transportation sector has a great need for methods and means for the transportation of products in an guaranteed and stable temperature environment. Important conditions for such products are: no increase of mass or volume, self-supporting (i.e. no mains needed), reliable, self regulating and without combustible, toxic or ecotoxic media.
  • a container for storing articles at a predetermined temperature comprising heat insulated walls
  • the container comprising a Peltier element which, under control of a control module, can be energized by a battery in order to collect or emit heat from/to the inside of the container; the Peltier element being connected, via a heat spreader, to one or more heat pipes extending through at least one of said insulating walls which is connected to outside means for emitting or collecting heat to/from the outside environment of the container.
  • the outside means may comprise an outside container frame or a part of such frame and/or a heat conducting foil or coating, applied on the outside of at least one of said insulating walls.
  • the container may comprise photovoltaic means outside the container, arranged for converting light into electric energy which can be fed to said Peltier element.
  • the container for storing articles at a predetermined temperature shown in figure 1 comprises heat insulated walls 9, surrounding the container's inside room 10, which can be filled -via a lid (not shown) with articles to be transported.
  • the container comprises a Peltier element 1 which, under control of a control module 2, connected to a thermometer 11, can be energized by a battery 3 in order to collect or emit heat from/to the inside of the container, depending of the actual and the desired inside temperature and the outside temperature.
  • the Peltier element is connected, via a heat spreader 4, to one or more heat pipes 5 which extend through at least one of the insulating walls 9 and which are connected to outside means for emitting or collecting heat to/from (again, depending of the actual and the desired inside temperature and the outside temperature) the outside environment of the container.
  • said outside means for emitting or collecting heat may be formed by an outside container frame 6 or a part of such frame.
  • those outside means may comprise a heat conducting foil or coating 7, applied on the outside of at least one of said insulating walls.
  • the electric power supply of the (self-supporting) container may be supplemented by the electrical output of a photovoltaic layer 8 which is provided outside the container, and which is arranged for converting incident light into electric energy which can be fed, under control of control module 2 to the Peltier element.
  • control/display unit 12 is provided outside the container, which is arranged to switch ON/OFF the circuitry and to set/adjust the container's inside temperature; moreover, unit 12 can display the actual inside temperature, the remaining battery charge, etc.
