Abstract: A climate-controlled freight container (10) comprises a casing (12), enclosing a cargo compartment (20) and a control compartment (26). The container further comprises a climate system (30) that has at least two climate modules (40) and an air distribution arrangement (21), configured to distribute air from the climate system into the cargo compartment and. A central climate-control unit (52) is configured for collection of measurements associated with climate conditions of the cargo compartment and for controlling the climate system. Each of the climate modules is configured for adapting climate properties of air flowing through the climate modules from a return air plenum (36) to a supply air plenum (34). Each of the at least two climate modules comprises a local climate-control unit (46), configured for controlling an operation of the climate module. The central climate-control unit is configured for providing operational instructions to the local climate-control units.

Abstract: A frame structure for a container or box includes panels with frame bars with flanges that overlap with the panels, a corner piece at each corner and bolts connecting the corner pieces to the ends of the frame bars, each corner piece including sections extending in planes that are angled to each other, each section positioned flush with a frame bar end and having a through-hole, with a bolt through each through-hole, perpendicularly to a plane of a respective section, in a longitudinal direction along a respective frame bar and into a respective hole facing an end of the frame bar, and fastened in a hole of a cross-dowel located in a seat in the interior of the respective frame bar, each cross-dowel being cylindrical and having a groove in at least one end, the hole of the cross-dowel being aligned with the hole facing a frame bar end.
