Definitions

  • This invention relates to a portable container for items for which thermal control is required.
  • the invention relates to a container for food, beverages, medical products or similar consumables which may need to be either chilled, kept frozen or kept warm or hot.
  • Containers of this type typically utilise reflecting surfaces to avoid radiant heat transfer through the container walls, or utilise padding, either with or without inner air pockets, to reduce the efficiency of heat transfer through the container walls.
  • Another approach is to provide removable layers of a material which can be cooled in a freezer and placed inside the container walls as required. Similar such devices can also be heated and used to keep container contents warm for a period of time. Whi le this method does permit a chosen temperature to be initially provided in a container, there is the disadvantage that components have to be separately heated or cooled before being reassembled in the container walls which is a time consuming process.
  • Australian Patent no. 200197223 discloses a collapsible container having a number of walls which are movable relative to one another between a collapsed configuration in which at least a major surface of at least two of the walls are in contact with each other, and an expanded configuration in which the walls define a cavity adapted to receive an article to be kept cool.
  • the walls contain a casing containing saline water as a coolant, but neither the base nor the top flap contains a coolant.
  • the container in its collapsed configuration is adapted to be placed in a freezer or refrigerator, and then removed when the coolant has been cooled to a desirable temperature, and the container erected into its expanded configuration.
  • US patent application no. 2005/0132741 discloses a thermal energy storage container in which thermal energy storage material is located in the walls and base in a space between two panels, the container having a separate thermal energy storage lid.
  • the invention provides a thermally controlled container for holding consumable products, said container including: a body having one or more soft or flexible layers, the body configured to define a cavity for receiving said consumable products; a lid having one or more soft or flexible layers, the lid configured to cooperate with said body to close the cavity; and at least one packet member having thermally sensitive material retained therein.
  • a thermally controlled container for holding consumable products, said container including: a body having one or more soft or flexible layers, the body configured to define a cavity for receiving said consumable products; a lid having one or more soft or flexible layers, the lid configured to cooperate with said body to close the cavity; and at least one packet member having thermally sensitive material retained therein.
  • at least one of the body or lid includes an outer layer of soft sheet material, an intermediate layer of flexible insulative material and an inner layer of soft sheet material.
  • a pocket is formed between the inner layer of soft sheet material and the intermediate layer of flexible insulative material, the pocket defining an enclosed space into which the at least one packet member is received.
  • the enclosed space is sufficient to accommodate the at least one packet member such that the intermediate layer of flexible insulative material and the inner layer of soft sheet material act to retain the packet member in position during use.
  • the intermediate layer of flexible insulative material includes or comprises a layer of foil material.
  • the intermediate layer of flexible insulative material further includes or comprises a foam material.
  • the intermediate layer of flexible insulative material includes a layer of foil material bonded to a foam material.
  • a layer of foil material faces the at least one packet member.
  • insulative effects may be provided by the reflection of energy (e.g. radiant energy from the packet member, inner layer or consumable product) towards the at least one packet member and/or the interior of the container.
  • a layer of foil material faces the outer layer of soft sheet material.
  • insulative effects may be provided by the reflection of energy (e.g. radiant energy from sunlight or heat energy from the outer layer) away from the at least one packet member and/or the container.
  • the intermediate layer may comprise a single layer of foil, or the intermediate layer may include a layer of foam material with a layer of foil bonded to each side of the foam material, such that foil material faces both the at least one packet member and the outer layer of the soft sheet material.
  • insulative effects are provided by the reflection of energy towards the at least one packet member and/or the interior of the container, and by the reflection of energy away from the at least one packet member and/or the container.
  • the body is configured to have a base and at least one side wall extending from the base to define said cavity.
  • the lid is attachable to the or each side wall.
  • the base includes one or more layers of a soft or flexible material.
  • the pocket is formed in the base, the at least one side wall and the lid such that the cavity is substantially enclosed by said at least one packet member.
  • the inner layer of soft sheet material is bonded to the intermediate layer of flexible insulative material by stitching to form the pocket.
  • the border of the at least one packet member is able to be sewn or attached to the layer(s) of material to ensure that the at least one packet member does not sink, slide or significantly move around inside the pocket during use.
  • the border is an extension of, and is made from the same material as, the at least one packet member.
