Abstract
A container arrangement has a container with a flexible wall. The container may be a disposable container and is insertable into a supporting container so that an inner supporting surface of the supporting container surrounds and supports a lateral wall of the container. At least one baffle that has a temperature-regulating system is disposed in proximity to the lateral wall of the container and/or the supporting surface of the supporting container.

A container arrangement comprising:
- a container with a flexible lateral wall, the container being insertable into a supporting container so that an inner supporting surface of the supporting container is in supporting and surrounding relationship with the lateral wall of the container, a plurality of circumferentially spaced baffles between the inner supporting surface of the supporting container and the flexible lateral wall of the container so that the baffles shape the flexible lateral wall of the container, the baffles having a temperature-regulating system that comprises parallel tubes through which a temperature-regulating liquid flows, the tubes being interconnected to one another to form a replaceable insert, the tubes of each of the baffles are arranged so that three tubes are in a first row toward the supporting container, two tubes are arranged in a second row toward the lateral container wall and one tube is arranged in a third row toward the lateral container wall.
An arrangement comprising:
- a supporting container comprising a lateral supporting container wall with an inner supporting surface;
- an inner flexible container comprising a flexible lateral container wall;
- an array of spaced apart baffles between the flexible lateral container wall and said supporting container so that the baffles shape the flexible lateral container wall, the baffles being connected to one another to form a replaceable insert that is insertable into the supporting container from above;
- and a temperature-regulating system incorporated into the baffles of the replaceable insert, the temperature regulating system comprises parallel tubes through which a temperature-regulating liquid flows, the tubes of the baffles are arranged so that three tubes are in a first row toward the supporting container, two tubes are arranged in a second row toward the lateral container wall and one tube is arranged in a third row toward the lateral container wall.
