摘要： The invention relates to a lockable temperature controlled storage apparatus comprising;
a) two or more lockable storage spaces, wherein each of two or more lockable storage spaces comprises at least one compartment; each of said compartments comprising a first temperature sensing device and a second temperature device;
b) at least one common distribution system comprising a heat transfer fluid that is arranged to be in cooperation with a refrigeration system, said at least one common distribution system distributing the heat transfer fluid at a supplied pressure to exchange heat with the at least one compartment;
c) a controller arranged to:-
i) interrupt the flow of heat transfer fluid to at least one compartment when the temperature from the second temperature device reaches a lower limit and reestablish the flow of heat transfer fluid to exchange heat with said at least one compartment when the temperature from the second temperature device reaches an upper limit;
ii) repeat step (i) until the temperature from the first temperature sensing device reaches a predetermined set point temperature.

摘要： The invention relates to a lockable temperature controlled storage apparatus, comprising:
a) a group of compartments;
b) at least one common distribution system comprising a heat transfer fluid that is arranged to be in cooperation with a refrigeration system having a defined maximum refrigeration capacity, said at least one common distribution system comprising at least one valve for distributing the heat transfer fluid at a supplied pressure to exchange heat with the group of compartments;
c) a controller for controlling actuation of the at least one valve; and
characterised in that the controller is configured to assign a cooling sequence to a sub-group of the compartments whereby the heat transfer fluid is periodically switched to each of the compartments in the sub-group by actuating the at least one valve to vary the quantity of heat transfer fluid to each of the compartments in the sub-group; said sub-group of compartments comprises two or more compartments allocated from the group of compartments.

摘要： The invention relates to an assembly of storage spaces, comprising:
a) three or more storage spaces, each of the three or more storage spaces comprising one or more compartments; wherein each of the three or more storage spaces comprises a remotely programmable insulated lockable door; and
b) at least one common distribution system comprising a refrigerant that is arranged to be in cooperation with a refrigeration system, said at least one common distribution system distributing the refrigerant to exchange heat with the one or more compartments in the each of the three or more storage spaces;
c) a heating system for providing heat to each of the compartments; and
wherein the one or more compartments is independently controllable to any of:-
i) ambient storage temperature having a temperature range between 4°C to 21°C; or
ii) chilled temperature; or
iii) frozen temperature.
