An apparatus for cooling a food processing grinder head with an integrated heatsink is captively retained between two halves of a cooling pack. The heatsink and cooling pack have a circumference that matches the circumference of the grinder head thereby attaching to and in direct thermal communication with the grinder head.

A transport container for transporting temperature-sensitive transport goods includes an interior for receiving the transport goods and an enclosure enclosing the interior and provided with a heat insulation, wherein at least one latent heat accumulator and at least one active temperature-control element are provided for controlling the temperature in the interior. The enclosure is preferably a multilayer enclosure, wherein a heat insulation, a latent heat accumulator, and optionally an active temperature-control element, are configured as mutually separate, superimposed layers of the enclosure.

Cooler beverage inserts may include an insert container having an insertion surface and a container retrieval surface opposite the insertion surface. A container interior may extend between the insertion surface and the container retrieval surface. The container interior may be configured to contain a cooling medium. At least one receptacle interior may extend from the insertion surface through the container interior to the container retrieval surface and open to the insertion surface and the container retrieval surface. The at least one receptacle interior may be sized and configured to accommodate a plurality of beverage containers. The at least one receptacle interior may have a uniform width or diameter from the insertion surface to the container retrieval surface. Accordingly, the plurality of beverage containers may be sequentially removable from the at least one receptacle interior without removal of the insert container from the cooler.

A pallet cover suitable for use in covering at least a portion of a payload on a pallet and a kit for use in making the pallet cover. In one embodiment, the pallet cover includes a top wall, a front wall, a rear wall, a left side wall, and a right side wall, wherein the walls are detachably joined to one another. Each of the top wall, the front wall, the rear wall, the left side wall, and the right side wall includes a first fabric sheet and a second fabric sheet, the first and second fabric sheets being joined together to form a plurality of pockets. Each pocket may removably receive a temperature-control member containing a phase-change material. At least one of the top wall, the front wall, the rear wall, the left side wall and the right side wall may include a plurality of detachably joined portions.

A livestock medication containment and administration container has a thermally insulated body defining an interior cavity and a top opening. A lid is movably attached to the thermally insulated body and has one or more apertures extending through the lid that are configured to receive a dispensing end of a livestock medication delivery device. Divider panels provide interior compartments for storage of livestock medication vials and associated administration supplies. Preferably, the lid is divided so that access to the medication and administration supplies may be accomplished through a first lid side while the medication delivery devices are carried in a second lid side.

Thermally insulated shipping system for use in transporting a pallet-sized payload. In one embodiment, the system includes a plurality of thermally insulating walls arranged to define an interior volume suitable for receiving a pallet-sized payload. The thermally insulating walls include a top wall, a bottom wall, a front wall, a rear wall, a left wall, and a right wall, of which all but the bottom wall include at least two slots facing towards the interior volume. One of the slots is an inner slot that is more proximal to the interior volume, and one of the slots is an outer slot that is more distal to the interior volume. The system also includes a plurality of inner cassettes disposed in at least some of the inner slots and a plurality of outer cassettes disposed in at least some of the outer slots. The inner and outer cassettes include phase-change materials.

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.

An air-treatment system comprises an air-intake chamber in fluid-flow communication with an air-treatment chamber and an air-exhaust chamber in fluid-flow communication with said air-treatment chamber. The air-intake chamber has an air-intake port placing said air-intake chamber in fluid-flow communication with an environment exteriorly of said air-intake chamber, said air-treatment chamber, and said air-exhaust chamber. The air-exhaust chamber has an exhaust-air port placing said air-exhaust chamber in fluid-flow communication with the environment exteriorly of said air-intake chamber, said air-treatment chamber, and said air-exhaust chamber. A canister assembly removably disposed within said air-intake chamber comprises a plurality of heat-conductable canisters each adapted for containing a heat-exchange substance. The canisters are disposed in spaced-apart arrangement permitting air flow between and around the canisters. A fan is disposed for drawing in air through said air-intake port, circulating said air between and around said canisters and exhausting said air through said exhaust-air port.

Shipping container systems are provided for shipping a temperature sensitive product or payload. The systems include at least one heat transfer element and a payload container configured to hold payload therein and configured to be positioned within a shipping container; the payload container being spaced from sidewalls of the shipping container. Also included are spacers that may space the payload container from one or more of the heat transfer elements, or the spacers may space the heat transfer elements from an inside surface of the shipping container, or the spacers space multiple heat transfer elements from one another. The spacers are configured to allow air to flow over surfaces of the payload container and heat transfer elements. Also included are kits that include components of the system and methods of packing a shipping container with the system and/or kit components. Further provided are products that include any one or more of the described elements, such as the unique shuttle horizontal spacers provided herein; and fully assembled shipping containers.
