A delivery robot loading box state management system includes a loading box provided in a delivery robot such that a delivery product is loaded therein; a sensing unit capable of detecting the state of the inside of the loading box; a temperature control unit capable of adjusting the temperature inside the loading box; a deodorizing unit for removing odors inside the loading box; and a control unit for controlling the operation of at least one of the temperature control unit or the deodorizing unit according to the detection result of the sensing unit.

An automated order fulfillment system is disclosed having different temperature zones and robots and containers capable of and/or configured to work in these different temperature zones. Containers include insulated wall panels and a thermal insert which may be chilled to maintain a temperature within the container below ambient temperature. Structure within a storage location for the containers may be used to open and close the containers to facilitate cooling of the thermal insert.

An implement for storage at a constant temperature has two housings (21 and 22) that accommodate heat storage agents. One heat storage agent (41) is irremovably accommodated in one housing (21), and a hook-and-loop fastener (30) for installation in a storage container is provided on the outer surface of the other housing (22).

A beverage container packing assembly includes a bottom tray defining a plurality of first compartments. The first compartments receive a first portion of a beverage container. The bottom tray includes first support columns. The beverage container packing assembly includes a center support defining through holes. The through holes receive a second portion of a beverage container therethrough. The center support includes second support columns configured to stack on the first support columns. The center support is configured to accommodate a thermo pack between a first row and a second row of the through holes. The beverage container packing assembly includes a top tray defining second compartments. The second compartments to receive a third portion of a beverage container therein.

A combination container and latch is provided. The container comprises a body, a lid hingedly attached to the body and a pivoting latch that minimizes the possibility of the latch becoming entangled in the lid or damaged. The latch is moveable between a locked position in which the latch is distended and extends vertically upward within a body recess and a lid recess to engage a locking post, and an open position in which the latch is relaxed and extends horizontally within the body recess. The container and latch are designed so that the latch never extends beyond the container footprint.

The present invention provides a waterless keep-alive apparatus and a refrigeration appliance having the same. The waterless keep-alive apparatus is provided in an inner tank of a refrigeration appliance, and comprises: a keep-alive box allowing pulling inward and outward; a temperature controlling module and a humidity controlling module which are connected with the keep-alive box; and an air controlling module having an air hole provided on a side wall of the keep-alive box and an air duct fixed on the inner tank of the refrigeration appliance. The air duct is hermetically connected with the air hole when the keep-alive box is pushed into the inner tank of the refrigeration appliance. The air duct is disconnected from the air hole when the keep-alive box is pulled out. The waterless keep-alive apparatus realizes convenient article fetching while the oxygen concentration in the keep-alive box can meet the survival needs of aquatic products.

A food storage container cooling system with a food storage container with walls, at least one wall defining an internal compartment with a top and a bottom, wherein the internal compartment is open at the top and closed at the bottom, and a reusable ice pack that is sized and shaped to fit into the compartment.

An insulating transport/storage container for transporting/storing temperature sensitive materials, with a generally tubular wall element defining a load volume between first and second apertures at either end thereof, the tubular wall element having an axis. First and second closures operate to close first and second apertures and fastening means operable to secure said first and second closures. The tubular wall element comprises a multiple-layer winding of single-sided corrugated sheet, with the layers coupled together whereby to define a high level of thermal resistance.

A configurable container includes a first divider and a container body. The divider has a divider body and a first projection extending from the divider body, wherein the first projection has a length having a first dimension and a width having a second dimension different than the first dimension. The container body includes a first wall that includes a first groove facing inward toward the internal cavity, wherein the first groove has a width configured to receive the width of the first projection of the first divider in a first orientation. At least one of the first wall and a second wall includes a second groove also facing inward toward the internal cavity, wherein the second groove has a width configured to receive the length of the first projection in a second orientation, wherein the width of the second groove is different than the width of the first groove.

An ergonomic cooler providing quick and easy access to ice through a side ice access. The exposure of the ice to debris is reduced. The interior compartments have modular configurations. Ice is accessed with a scoop or utensil with minimal wrist movement.
