Abstract:
A heat-insulation box, includes: a heat-insulation-box main body that has a space; a door that seals the space; and a partition plate that partitions the space, wherein the partition plate includes (i) a design plate that is placed at a side of the door, (ii) a first plate part and a second plate part that are each provided at both edges of the design plate, (iii) a heat-insulation material that is located in a region surrounded by the design plate, the first plate part, and the second plate part, and (iv) a heat-insulation member that is placed in at least one of a gap between the design plate and the first plate part, and a gap between the design plate and the second plate part.
Abstract:
An insulated cabinet structure includes an inner liner having a plurality of walls defining a refrigerator compartment, and an external wrapper having a plurality of walls defining a refrigerator compartment receiving area. An insulation gap is formed between the walls of the inner liner and the walls of the external wrapper. A first insulation material is positioned on a wall of the external wrapper and extends outwardly into the insulation gap to partially fill the insulation gap. The first insulation material includes a renewable resource component having a particle size in a range from about 10 microns to about 25 microns. A second insulation material is disposed in the insulation gap, such that the first insulation material and the second insulation material together substantially fill the insulation gap.

Abstract:
A vacuum heat insulating panel comprises outer wrapping material and core material. A getter is provided in the core material. The outer wrapping material is made by compounding wrapped material without aluminum foil on one side or both sides. The core material is made of an aggregate of glass fiber with uniform laminated structure, and the diameter of the glass fiber is 1-3 μm. A method for manufacturing the vacuum heat insulating panel is also disclosed. Due to very high vacuum degree in the vacuum heat insulating panel, the heat transferring speed is reduced. And, because of the outer wrapping material without aluminum foil layer, the edge thermal bridge effect is eliminated and the heat insulation effect is very good.
Abstract:
A method and system for forming an insulation package for use in a vacuum insulated structure is provided. A slurry containing a liquid and an insulation material is formed. The slurry can be supplied to an envelope under vacuum, wherein the envelope is gas-permeable and permeable to the liquid. At least a portion of the liquid is drawn through the envelope and at least a portion of the insulation material is retained within the envelope to form an insulation package. One or more insulation packages can be disposed within an insulating cavity and the insulating cavity can be evacuated to decrease a pressure therein to form a vacuum insulated structure.
Abstract:
A vacuum heat insulator includes core material (203), first member (201) having a box shape with opening (204), core material (203) being disposed in first member (201), and second member (202) that tightly closes opening (204). First member (201) includes first resin layer (21), second resin layer (22), and gas barrier layer (23), first resin layer (21) and second resin layer (22) being made of thermoplastic resin, gas barrier layer (23) being disposed between first resin layer (21) and second resin layer (22) and containing organic resin and scaly inorganic material. A content of the scaly inorganic material in gas barrier layer (23) is equal to or less than 14% by weight relative to a gross weight of gas barrier layer (23).
Abstract:
A robust, durable, easy to use, reusable shipping container is disclosed that is capable of protecting contents from surrounding high temperatures up to 1000 degrees Fahrenheit for a minimum of at least three and a half hours. The container includes an inner chamber surrounded by an outer chamber. A phase change liquid (PCL) is sequestered in a porous support matrix contained in the inner chamber, while the outer chamber is filled with high temperature insulation, forming an outer barrier layer that is designed to reduce heat flux into the inner chamber.
