Abstract
A transport container formed of insulated board such as corrugated or laminated plastics and treated paper and treated card that can provide a high degree of thermal insulation. A pallet shipper storage container that can operate at ultra-low temperatures akin to those at which solids such as carbon dioxide sublimate and method of use of such shippers and containers.
Claims16
A thermally insulating transport container comprising:
- a cuboid body comprising six insulating panels;
- and a coolant support member;
- wherein the coolant comprises a solid that sublimates;
- wherein the cuboid panels comprise a base panel, first and second end-wall panels and first and second sidewall panels and a cover panel;
- wherein the insulation panels are fastened such that they provide a substantially gas-tight seal along mutually orthogonal edges;
- wherein the coolant support member comprises at least a support tray spaced, in use, from an inside face of the cover panel, the support tray being provided with upstanding support members;
- wherein a payload volume is defined below the coolant support tray, which payload volume provides sufficient space for a palletized good;
- wherein, in use, once assembled and provided with coolant, the coolant gases emanating from the coolant are operable to cool the payload volume by sublimation;
- and
- wherein a gas valve is provided to enable gaseous pressure control within the cuboid volume due to the sublimation gases arising from the coolant.
