Abstract
The present invention provides a top frame made from a thermoset foam material. The top frame includes a pair of substantially parallel sides and a pair of substantially parallel ends connected to the sides to form a generally rectangular frame structure. The frame structure has an inner layer and outer surface defining a thickness. The thermoset foam material varies in density along the frame structure thickness such that the density of the thermoset foam material is greatest near the frame structure outer surface to form a hard outer shell.
Claims11
An insulated container assembly comprising:
- an outer, thin walled tote having a first plurality of integrally formed walls each having an outer surface including a bottom wall, a first side wall, a second side wall opposing the first side wall, a first end wall and a second end wall opposing the first end wall;
- a liner having a second plurality of integrally formed walls, one of each of the second plurality of walls corresponding to one of each of the first plurality of walls, the liner is positioned in the outer tote with one of each inner surface of the second plurality of walls entirely in face-to-face contact with one of each exterior surface of the first plurality of walls to form the container, the liner being formed from a thermoset foam material, the thermoset foam material varying in density along the thickness such that the density of the thermoset foam material is greatest nearest the outer surface to form a hard outer shell, each of the second plurality of integrally formed walls having a thickness greater than a thickness of one of each of the first plurality of integrally formed walls.
