For charging a refrigerant-receiving compartment of a cooling container with dry ice, a reservoir vessel has a dispensing opening and a dispensing unit which cooperates therewith and by means of which dry ice blocks stored in stacks in a magazine of the reservoir vessel are ejected one after the other from the reservoir vessel and are respectively inserted into a refrigerant-receiving compartment of a respectively provided cooling container. This makes it possible to provide cooling containers in rapid succession with a precisely metered quantity of dry ice as refrigerant.
A device for charging a refrigerant-receiving compartment of a cooling container with dry ice, the device comprising a storage container comprising a feed opening for stackable dry ice slices, a hopper area for storing a stack of dry ice slices, and a dispensing opening arranged in a lower region of the storage container, and having a dispensing unit for the sequential unloading of dry ice slices located in the hopper area through the dispensing opening.
