Title:
FOLDABLE HEAT INSULATING CONTAINER AND DISTRIBUTION METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/073648
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A frozen commodity distribution method reduced in labor and cost while holding the quality of frozen commodities and a cold insulation container unfoldable and foldable in a short time while providing high cold insulation performance. In the distribution method, the frozen commodities requiring cold insulation are stored in the cold insulation container formed of a vacuum thermal insulation material, and the cold insulation container is distributed by a refrigerator car, cold insulation car, or a room temperature car other than a chill car. In the foldable cold insulation container, each of peripheral wall parts, cover parts, and bottom face parts is formed by including the vacuum thermal insulation material in a sheet material, and the peripheral wall parts of the cover parts adjacent to the continuously arranged peripheral wall parts are foldable since the vacuum thermal insulation material is divided along pleat lines. When the container is used, the cover parts and the bottom face parts are rotated in closed attitudes to form into a box. When the container is not used, the bottom face parts are bent to the inside or outside of the peripheral wall parts, the cover parts are bent in the reverse direction of the bottom face parts, and the peripheral wall parts are allowed to approach each other while bending the peripheral wall parts inward along the pleat lines, stacked on each other, and folded.
