Abstract: A transportable enclosure can include a housing, a power source, a container, an evaporator, a condenser, a compressor, and a controller. The container can be configured to receive a temperature sensitive item therein. The evaporator can be disposed at least partially around the container. The condenser can be positioned near a wall of the housing and can be configured to reject heat from the evaporator to an ambient environment through the wall of the housing.

Abstract: A medical fluid storage and transportation enclosure can include a housing, a chamber, an exhaust duct, an inlet duct, and a valve. The housing can include walls defining a cavity, where the cavity can be configured to receive a medical product therein. The chamber can be adjacent to the cavity and can be configured to exchange heat with the cavity. The valve can be located in the inlet duct, where the valve can be movable in response to an air.
Abstract: A pump mount for a product transportation and storage enclosure can include a stationary bracket secured to one or more of the walls of the housing, a rotating bracket configured to support the pump, a pump manifold, and a rotating manifold.

Abstract: A portable fluid transportation enclosure can include a specimen carrier within a portable container that can be transported portably by a user. The carrier can define one or more specimen bores therein, where each specimen bore can be configured to receive a specimen therein. Such a gyroid shaped carrier within a container can improve heat transfer between specimen supported by the carrier and can help to limit shock transferred to the specimen within the carrier, such as from an impact to the container in which the gyroid carrier is located.
