The invention relates to a thermally insulated transport box and an arrangement in a thermally insulated transport box, wherein the box comprises a cover and a box body. The box body side walls, end walls, an opening and a bottom wall. The inner surfaces of the side walls comprise half columns projecting from the side wall, wherein the inner surfaces of the end walls further comprise half columns projecting from the end wall, and the half columns run vertically along the side walls and along the end walls. The box further comprises at least one partition wall comprising notches in its opposing edges, and as the partition wall is positioned to cover at least part of the opening the partition wall is supported by the half columns.

A temperature controlled container comprising:

an inner housing member defining a cavity, wherein at least a portion of the inner housing member comprises phase change material for regulating a temperature inside the cavity within a predetermined temperature range;

an outer housing member configured to accommodate and thermally insulate the inner housing member; and a content holding unit configured to be removably accommodated inside the cavity of the inner housing member, wherein the content holding unit is configured to hold an object to be stored or transported.

The subject invention provides an apparatus for cooling and/or freezing samples. In an exemplary embodiment, the apparatus is a stackable chilling plate used in a comet assay. In specific embodiments, the chilling plate can accommodate glass slides deposited with an agarose gel suspension, wherein the gel is cured by a refrigerant disposed underneath a thermally-conductive top plate. Advantageously, the cooling/freezing apparatus provided herein can easily accommodate the placement of multiple cellular sample slides in a compact configuration.

A beverage storage container is described. The beverage storage container includes a removable core containing a viscous temperature sensitive fluid and a containing vessel base configured to hold the temperature sensitive core. The beverage storage container also includes a containing vessel body configured to be in thermal connection with the removable core; and a thermoplastic insulator configured to prevent rapid transfer of temperature between the removable core and the containing vessel body.

A freezing device comprising a refrigeration base housing having a refrigeration system therein and a bottle receiver above the refrigeration base housing. The bottle receiver has a top opening for accepting a portion of a bottle of consumable beverage therein such that a top portion of the bottle is not encompassed by the bottle receiver. The bottle receiver has an air space between at least one sidewall of the bottle receiver and the bottle. The refrigeration system cools the space within the bottle receiver for freezing a bottom portion of the consumable beverage encompassed by the bottle receiver.

The present invention is directed to a thermally controlled container for holding consumable products, said container including: a body having one or more soft or flexible layers, the body configured to define a cavity for receiving said consumable products; a lid having one or more soft or flexible layers, the lid configured to co-operate with said body to close the cavity; and at least one packet member having thermally sensitive material retained therein; at least one of the body or lid including an outer layer of soft sheet material, an intermediate layer of flexible insulative material and an inner layer of soft sheet material; and a pocket formed between the inner layer of soft sheet material and the intermediate layer of flexible insulative material, the pocket defining an enclosed space into which the at least one packet member is received.

Carrier for carrying products, the carrier comprising: a plurality of thermally insulated walls (10); a thermally insulated base (20); a liner (30) defining at least part of an interior surface of the carrier; a cooling element (50), wherein the cooling element (50) is arranged to be located behind the liner (30).

The present disclosure relates to a portable cold storage box having at least six identical square cold storage pieces capable of being put together to form a cuboid or cubic box. A through-hole is provided in the middle of each square cold storage piece. The periphery of each through-hole has one surface formed with a recess and an opposite surface formed with a step-shaped protrusion which can be snapped in a corresponding recess. Engageable tooth-shaped teeth are formed on opposite sides of the square cold storage pieces. A refrigerant is stored inside the square cold storage pieces in a sealed manner. The portable cold storage box of the present disclosure is advantageous in that it does not require a power source. It is easy to assemble, and after disassembling, the disassembled pieces can be quickly stacked up without being scattered around.

This invention relates to a novel two-stage dry ice system for preserving perishable items during transport and methods thereof. The improved two-stage dry ice system includes dry ice and a phase change material specifically configured within a single and continuous holding volume with perishable items. Preservation of the perishable items for extended durations in comparison to other refrigeration techniques can be achieved as a result of the two-stage dry system having the ability to re-orient itself during transport.

A refrigeration bin is disclosed. The bin includes a product display area defined by four side walls, a floor, and an access opening. Also included are an air supply vent on each of a first opposing set of the side walls, and an air return vent near each of a second opposing set of the side walls, in which the second opposing set of the side walls are adjacent to the first opposing set of the side walls. There is a return air duct, a first end of the return air duct in air flow communication with the air return vent, and a supply air duct, the first end of the supply air duct in air flow communication with the air supply vent, allows air flow in the display area. A cooling device is included for cooling air before it enters the supply air duct. The refrigeration bin can be useful to showcase foodstuffs in grocery stores and the like.
