A thermal storage system includes a thermally insulated storage container and a payload container adapted to retrievably house a temperature sensitive payload. The system includes layers of first and second phase change materials arranged in a stack with the payload container. The first phase change material has a phase change temperature within a target temperature range of the payload, and the second phase change material has a phase change temperature outside the target temperature range. The layers are arranged to isolate the payload from the second phase change material. In the case of biological materials that must not freeze while stored in the container, this arrangement enables a cold pack containing the layers of phase change materials to be placed in direct contact with the contents container even with a cold pack starting temperature well below the freezing point of the contents.

A device for conditioning products intended to maintain the products within a determined temperature range, including a first box of parallelepiped shape; a second box of parallelepiped shape. The second box having overall dimensions less than the first box is intended to be positioned inside the first box in a removable manner. At least one thermal stabilisation element is intended to be positioned in a space formed between the first box and the second box. A temperature monitoring system includes a data monitoring unit and at least one temperature probe coupled to the monitoring unit. The monitoring unit is intended to be fixed onto the first box and the temperature probe is intended to be inserted into the second box. The second box includes a slot for positioning the temperature probe. The positioning slot maintains the temperature probe in position by compression.

The invention discloses an airtight thermal insulation package with physical sucker structure at the convex edge of the opening thereof, comprising a package body and a side flip cover connected with it; the body upper adopts convex-edge structure, the body and cover comprise thermal insulation inner and connecting outer layers; the structure upper has sucker rubber ribbon connected with cover; the body has a placing tray guided by the guide block; between the block and tray is an elastic piece providing stretching force for block; the connecting end of body and cover is a snap groove, the cover has a snap block fitting the groove; the outer side of body and cover is a connecting piece for closing them; the tray upper has a concave groove, hinged with two handles. It has following advantages: good sealing, long service life, no food sprinkling, and good thermal insulation effect.

A temperature-controlled container that includes an outer box structure that defines an inner cavity; an inner box structure that is constructed and arranged for engagement into the cavity that is formed in the outer box structure; said inner box structure having an open passage for accommodating an item the temperature of which is to be controlled, and a wheat straw material that is disposed in the outer box structure between respective sidewalls of the outer box structure and the inner box structure, and that is disposed in the open space between a bottom of the inner box structure and a bottom of the outer box structure. The inner box structure has a height that is less than a height of the outer box structure so as to define an open space between a bottom of the inner box structure and a bottom of the outer box structure. An insert that is constructed and arranged for insertion into the open passage and over the item the temperature of which is to be controlled.

A thermally insulating package comprises an outer shell (6) formed from a foam insulating material, a plurality of vacuum insulated panels (12) removably received on the walls of the outer shell (6) and a plurality of phase change material panels (18) arranged within the vacuum insulated panels (12) to define a payload space.

A shipping container includes a plurality of thermally insulating pads positioned in a cavity in a box. Each pad of the plurality of thermally insulating pads includes a solid compostable panel formed primarily of extruded milled sorghum, the panel providing a rectangular plate, and a recyclable film formed primarily of paper. The recyclable film forms a pocket enclosing the panel. The panel is loose within the pocket. At least one of the plurality of thermally insulating pads includes a multi-section panel including a score across its width in at least one location. The score extends partially, but not entirely through the thickness of the multi-section panel. The multi-section panel is folded at a right angle at the score such that the panel provides a plurality of rectangular plates dimensioned to substantially span whichever of the floor, plurality of side walls or cover that the plurality of plates is adjacent.

An insulating container having a base and a lid is provided. The lid may be rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration and may be secured, via one or more latching devices, in the closed configuration. In some examples, the insulating container further includes a pull handle assembly with a telescopic three-stage arm configuration defined by a stowed configuration, a partially extended configuration, and a fully extended configuration. In other examples, the insulating container further includes a wheel assembly with a pair of wheels mounted with one or two axles, and further including a wheel grommet for absorbing shock and cushioning the axle. In still other examples, the insulating container further includes a drain plug assembly on the rear sidewall adjacent to the bottom portion of the base, the drain plug assembly comprising a main tube that cooperatively engages with an outer tube with a plurality of ratchet teeth that engage one or more ratchet keys on the main tube.

Product transport containers are disclosed. Such containers can provide one or more advantages compared to existing containers. For example, product transport containers described herein can maintain a product at a desired temperature for an extended period of time, including without the use of an active heating or cooling component. Such product transport containers described herein may also provide improved breathability, thermal insulation, and/or mechanical strength or dimensional stability. Such containers can include a plurality of walls defining an interior volume and a selectively openable side permitting movement of the product into and out of the interior volume of the container. The walls can be formed from a thermoformed non-woven fabric.
