Patent ID: 7240513

Claim:
A portable thermally-controlled system comprising: an outer case providing a first inner chamber and configured to have an open position and a closed position, when in the open position the outer case is configured to receive items into the first inner chamber and when in the closed position the outer case is configured to inhibit heat transfer between the first inner chamber and a region external to the outer case; an inner case configured to be removable and configured with a thermally reflective layer of material, an insulation layer or material and an opening configured to receive temperature sensitive materials within a second inner chamber, the inner case is further configured to substantially fill the inside inner chamber provided by the outer case with a cooling element, the inner case sized relatively smaller but approximately equal to the geometric shape of the said side wall panels of the outer case dimension; the inner case insulation layer configured to prevent thermal cooling elements and the temperature sensitive materials to be in contact; including a thermally-reflective layer and an insulation layer disposed and; a cooling element configured to be disposed in the first inner chamber with the inner case and wherein the inner case and the cooling element are configured to substantially fill the first inner chamber with the outer case in the closed position, the system configured to maintain a desired temperature inside the inner case for transport of temperature sensitive materials.
