This invention is directed to a kit of coolers that offers a number of improvements over the prior art. The coolers are modified to specifically accommodate frozen gel ice packs instead of ice cubes. Because there is no spill water, the coolers open with front-facing pull-out drawers. The coolers stack atop one another with interlocking parts. Easy transport is provided by a handle and wheels, which are attached to the bottom (main) bin. Internally, the cooler bins are compartmentalized horizontally or vertically with dividers. Hollow spaces within the walls and dividers of the bins accommodate frozen gel ice packs. Overall, the coolers are easier to pack and unpack, stack, load into a car, and transport on the ground than conventional ice chest coolers.

Provided are container assemblies, including at least two containers detachably attached to one another by locking arrangements.

A storage and shipping container system for a set of specific related components, such as multiple blood products, which conveys the components in pre-determined ratios, having a thermally-insulated main container with a plurality of internal chambers, and at least one attached auxiliary container which is thermally-insulated. Optionally, the system is provided with wheels and a collapsible handle for easy movement of one system, and configured for stacking of multiple similar systems for bulk transportation.

A container for holding and transporting goods is provided. The container includes a base and a plurality of walls connected to and extending upwardly from the base to a brim to define an opening for receiving the goods. A pair of lock-lugs extend from the brim. The container also includes a handle defining a pair of lock-keys for receiving the lock-lugs and pivotally connecting the handle to the brim for pivoting between a storage position and a raised position. The lock-keys interact with the lock-lugs to establish a locked condition of the handle when the handle is in the raised position and pulled upwardly away from the base for allowing a user to pull the container across the floor with the handle and an unlocked condition where the handle is pushed downwardly when in the raised position to allow the handle to be rotated to the storage position.

An interlocking or mating container and container system are presented herein. In particular, the system includes a plurality of adjacently disposed (side-by-side, end-to-end and stacked) containers that are dimensioned to maximize the available space on a pallet or in a shipping unit. The containers are configured to include a plurality of interlocking or mating portions such as one or more side flanges, teeth or projections, a handle engaging portion or channel, one or more wheel assembly receiving portions, or one or more foot receiving portions. The Interlocking or mating portions are configured to matingly engage or abut corresponding portions of an adjacent container and at least partially restrict movement there between.

The invention relates to a container having a base and a peripheral lateral wall which adjoins the base. The base and the lateral wall delimit an inner region of the container, and the container is designed in a rollable manner. The container additionally has a pull handle with a guide rail and a handle, and a guide tunnel is provided in a region of the lateral wall for guiding and at least partly receiving the guide rail of the pull handle. The guide rail has at least one latching element which is lifted out of an outer surface of the guide rail and prevents the guide rail from being completely pulled out of the guide tunnel in the assembled state of the pull handle.

A travel cooler includes a base and an insulated container with interior space for perishable foods. In an aspect, the travel cooler includes an air pump, and an exterior of the cooler defines a receiving area for retaining the pump. In other aspects, the cooler includes a detachable handle; the base includes a portion that extends beyond the container to define a cargo receiving area; and a retaining member is mounted to the base and configured to move between a retracted position defining the cargo receiving area and a protracted position substantially eliminating the cargo receiving area. Alternatively, the travel cooler includes a bracket removably mounted to the insulated container that defines the cargo receiving area. In more aspects, the container includes an inflatable wall and a valve; and the base is part of a wheeled platform and the container is configured to be selectively coupled to the wheeled platform.

Provided are container assemblies, including at least two containers detachably attached to one another by locking arrangements.
