Abstract
A temperature controlled container comprises exterior wall structure, interior wall structure positioned within the exterior wall structure, the interior wall structure at least partially defining an interior space configured to hold one or more products for shipping, and a chamber defined between the interior and exterior wall structure, the chamber configured to retain thermal storage medium to provide a thermally insulative layer at least partially protecting the interior space.
Claims21
A temperature controlled container, comprising:
- exterior wall structure;
- interior wall structure positioned within the exterior wall structure, the interior wall structure at least partially defining an interior space configured to hold one or more products for shipping;
- and
- a chamber defined between the interior and exterior wall structure, the chamber configured to retain thermal storage medium to provide a thermally insulative layer at least partially protecting the interior space.
A method of retro-fitting a conventional container having exterior wall structure, the method comprising:
- installing interior wall structure within the conventional container, the interior wall structure positioned such that at least a portion of the interior wall structure is in a generally parallel-spaced relationship with at least a portion of the exterior wall structure, thereby defining a chamber;
- and
