TRAILER WITH MODULAR CLIMATE CONDITIONED ZONES
A refrigeration body to be mounted to a chassis to obtain a climatized vehicle. The refrigeration body has an enclosure delimited by external surfaces; internal and walls dividing the enclosure into a plurality of sub-cargo volumes accessible through dedicated doors. The refrigeration body has a plurality of conditioning units mounted to at least one of the external surface, with at a first one of the plurality of conditioning units that is fluidly coupled to a first one of the sub-cargo volumes, and a second one of the plurality of conditioning units that is fluidly coupled to a second one of the sub-cargo volumes.
Temperature-regulating storage system
A storage system includes a storage surface for storing a container thereon. The storage surface defines a storage surface ridge. The storage surface ridge defines a cavity. The storage surface further defines a storage surface valley. The storage surface ridge and the storage surface valley interlock with a bottom surface of the container. The storage system also includes a temperature-regulating medium housed in the cavity. The temperature-regulating medium regulates a temperature of one or more contents of the container when the container is stored on the storage surface.
Bulkheads for enclosed cargo transporters
Example bulkheads for enclosed cargo transporters (e.g., trailers, trucks, reefers, and containers) are disclosed. An example bulkhead includes a first panel and a second panel adjoining the first panel to define a partition that includes a first lateral edge along the first panel and a second lateral edge along the second panel. The partition has a partition width extending from the first lateral edge to the second lateral edge. A harness is structured to extend beyond the partition width. The harness includes a breakaway fastener assembly that renders the bulkhead in an operative configuration and a restorable breakaway configuration. The breakaway fastener assembly is to couple to the partition when the bulkhead is in the operative configuration, and the breakaway fastener assembly to decouple from the partition when the bulkhead is in the restorable breakaway configuration.

STRAP BRACKET
An improved accessory bracket for composite panels and the like is disclosed. In one embodiment, the accessory bracket comprises two flanges, each having two posts that protrude inwards into a panel in through holes. During assembly, the flanges are inserted into two through holes from opposite sides of the panel such that the posts (which are male and female) engage with each other. The male posts have an interior longitudinal channel adapted, e.g., to engage with a screw inserted from the outer face of the flange having a female post. The head of the screw rests against the face of the flange it is inserted into, and the threads pull the opposing flange towards it. When fully tightened, the flanges provide a compression force on a relatively wide area of the panel, providing a secure accessory attachment point on the panel.
