  • Patent number: 6131404
    Abstract: A method and a container for storing or transporting goods, in particular food products in a frozen and/or chilled state, include a conditioned room where the goods are placed. The room is conditioned by means of a refrigerating medium, for instance solid carbon dioxide, arranged above the room, the refrigerating medium and the room being divided by an insulated panel. A variety of insulated panels can be provided between the refrigerating medium and the room so as to maintain a required amount of cold transfer between the refrigerant and the room. The amount of refrigerating medium can be varied in accordance with specifications such as the assumed duration of the transport/storage, the required storage temperature and a predicted average of the ambient temperature.

  • Patent number: 5899535
    Abstract: There is disclosed a rock crushing apparatus having a frame, an anvil mounted therein and a mounting for a rotor. The rotor has hammer elements disposed thereon for cooperation with the anvil. The rotor includes an outside surface, a plurality of recesses in spaced relation about the outside surface and a plurality of rotor protection members for protecting the rotor. The rotor protection members are releasably mounted in the recesses and extend outwardly of the outside surface of the rotor means for preventing wear of the outside surface. The hammer elements are releasably mounted in the recesses and in alternation with the rotor protection elements and extend outwardly of the rotor protection members. The hammer elements lift and pulverize the rock material. This arrangement has been found to be more effective than any of the prior art arrangements due to the configuration of the hammer elements and their disposition on the rotor.

  • Patent number: 4907423
    Abstract: An insulated refrigerated storage container apparatus comprises a plurality of wall members defining a generally rectilinear enclosure and including respective top, bottom, front, rear and opposing side wall members. An access opening is provided in the front wall and an access door mounted to the access opening for selectively closing the same. A refrigerant compartment is located interiorly of the enclosure adjacent the top wall thereof. Channels are provided for directing a flow of refrigerated fluid from the refrigerant compartment over and around top, rear and bottom portions of the interior of the enclosure so as to substantially surround an interior volume defined within the enclosure with refrigerated fluid. An exhaust vent is located at a lower portion of the container for exhausting excess air and spent refrigerated fluid from the enclosure.
