John Abrahams, Sachin Chauhan, Benjamin Smith and Richard Toften. This design looks at the need to make the most of space in delivery vehicles for frozen and cold food. Present vehicle designs have separate compartments for frozen, chilled and ambient temperatures, which means all the space is full from load to load. This design uses insulated boxes, which means the whole volume can be used for every trip. This design addresses the same issues and again uses the insulated box approach.
Boxes are colour-coded to differentiate the temperature requirements of their contents.
The frozen box incorporates an active temperature control system that enable their contents to be stored at the correct temperature while waiting to be loaded onto the vehicle. This approach removes the need for refrigerated rooms.
