US Patent:

60282932, Feb 22, 2000

Filed:

Apr 20, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/062400

Inventors:

Robert J. Nagle - Morganville NJ
Edward J. Beldowicz - Edison NJ

Assignee:

TCP Reliable Inc. - Edison NJ

International Classification:

F27D 1102
A61F 700
B65D 8118
B65D 8138

US Classification:

219432

Abstract:

A temperature-controlled container for transporting biologic tissue and human skin is set out wherein an outer insulated container houses a power source, a thermostat means, a heating means, a power source and interior container along with a retention means for holding the sample in place and a lid that interlocks with the open annular area by a T-shaped friction plug. The thermostat means may be a microchip and heating element so that the sample and interior temperature does not vary from a given temperature parameter.

US Classification:

Abstract:

A temperature-controlled container for transporting biologic tissue and human skin is set out wherein an outer insulated container houses a power source, a thermostat means, a heating means, a power source and interior container along with a retention means for holding the sample in place and a lid that interlocks with the open elongated chamber area by a T-shaped friction plug. The thermostat means may be a microchip and heating element so that the sample and interior temperature does not vary from a given temperature parameter. A eutectic pack which is a solid at room temperature and experiences a phase change to the liquid state at temperatures exceeding room temperature is provided to insure that a minimal super-ambient temperature is maintained.
