圖4a展示安裝至絕緣容器之外部側之熱電模組。絕緣容器之頂部由諸如鋁之一金屬材料組成以促成良好地傳導熱電模組之冷卻效應。總成之此部分被稱為冷板,此係因為其處於自熱電模組接收冷之側上。圖4b展示熱交換器總成及其伴隨部件。透過使用一模組安裝框、模組安裝柱、及模組安裝支架使熱電模組、或TE模組直接接觸絕緣容器之冷板以用於抵靠絕緣容器之頂部上之冷板穩固地壓縮TE模組。TE模組之此總成通常提供有一熱膠以更佳地協助熱能之傳導遠離冷板且將其傳導至與TE模組接觸而安置且安置於TE模組之頂部上之熱板之側。 圖4b亦展示直接接觸熱板之經由具有高導電材料之熱管所連接而直接接觸系統之頂部處之熱交換器之TE模組之頂部側。此熱交換器總成具有一設計,該設計尤其適於依一有效且固態方式傳導大量熱遠離一相對較小區域,藉此熱板或熱管在正常操作期間不存在移動,藉此挽救組件歸因於溫度之迅速增加之大小之可能變化。熱管透過總成之頂部處之熱交換器延伸,使得所傳導之遠離熱板之熱經排出至熱交換器中,該熱交換器繼而由一頂部安裝之排風扇使其冷卻,該排風扇吸收熱交換器外之熱且將其傳送遠離可攜式冷凍單元。 圖5a至圖5e繪示絕緣容器之內部空間或腔室可具有一或多個擱架。可相對於彼此平行且水平地定向該等擱架。可滑動地延伸該等擱架,且可自內部空間滑動地移除該等擱架。該等擱架可經鎖定至內部空間內之適當位置中。 冰箱單元可具有附接至絕緣容器之外表面之冷箱。該等冷箱可各具有填充有350 g相變材料(例如,來自NC之Arden之RGEES LLC之PCM-OM06P)之一貯器。該相變材料可在5.5

圖6展示系統之電子組件及其等在表示其等連接及相關功能性之一示意性佈局中之功能。方塊圖展示導向AC-DC電力供應器及轉換器之AC主入口。此組件可透過一中繼器將DC電力提供至系統。AC主電源亦可經連接至對電池組充電之一電池充電器。接著,電池繼而可透過該中繼器將DC電力提供至系統。當光伏打太陽能面板經連接且產生電時,其可將DC電力饋送至太陽能充電控制器中,該太陽能充電控制器繼而可對電池充電。接著,電池可透過中繼器將DC電力運轉至系統,此與當自AC主電源充電時相同。 微控制器中央處理單元(CPU)可控制系統之邏輯且將DC電力分散至包含熱電模組、電阻加熱器、及排風扇之系統級組件。該微控制器亦將較小DC電壓發送至讀取絕緣容器之內部溫度及外部環境溫度之熱敏電阻器。該微控制器亦經連接至通信模組,該通信模組包含一GPS接收器以經由衛星及GPRS/GSM數據機判定全域位置,該GPRS/GSM數據機提供至網際網路及支援裝置功能性之資料擷取態樣之基於雲端之伺服器之連接。 設計用於可攜式冷凍單元之電子系統係基於可具有含觸控面板之一320×240 TFT彩色顯示器之一PIC24EP處理器。此為單元提供使用者介面,且亦監測並控制冷凍腔室之加熱或冷卻。TE模組之存在容許絕緣容器之冷卻。絕緣容器中之一較小電阻加熱器之可能加入亦意謂系統可用於加熱內容物,其足以避免冷凍內容物之任何風險。 連接至處理器上之IO接腳之電力MOSFET提供對熱電模組、一電阻式加熱器、及風扇之控制。 使用連接至類比輸入之處理器上之NTC熱敏電阻器監測冷凍腔室及TE模組散熱器之溫度。使用板載類比轉數位轉換器(ADC)轉換所得電壓,且使用標準Steinhart-Hart演算法計算實際溫度並顯示該等實際溫度。 常規地對溫度取樣,且作為一實例,依每秒一次之速率對溫度取樣,且在可係8秒之一時間範圍內由韌體對該等溫度求平均。 韌體係基於在每秒1至100次之範圍內之一週期性中斷。作為一實例,在其中每秒20次之情況中,此將各秒劃分成20個時隙。將各種處理器任務分配至不同時隙以使處理器上之負載均等且容許更佳電力管理。在各中斷上,觸控面板經取樣以判定使用者是否已向系統輸入任何事物。 可使用具有一0.1 C滯後之一簡單接通/斷開恆溫類型演算法完成溫度控制。使用者經由一選單選擇控制設定點。預設可係任一溫度但很可能係5 C。當溫度高於設定點減去滯後時,TE模組接通。當溫度下降至低於彼點時,TE模組斷開。當溫度上升至高於設定點加滯後時,TE模組再次接通。此循環可能耗費自30秒至10分鐘,且作為一實例,此循環可將腔室溫度保持於+0.3 C與-0.1 C內。 亦可經由風扇控制TE模組熱交換器溫度。若熱交換器溫度上升至高於一設定最大值,例如40C,則可開啟風扇直至溫度下降至一安全位準,可能低於35C。此循環可取決於環境溫度耗費自數10秒至數分鐘之一段時間。 CPU可具有支援一GSM (行動電話類型)數據機及一GPS接收器之特徵。此等兩個介面之組合將容許可攜式冷凍系統經由GPS接收器判定其位置,且接著使用GSM電話介面以向一伺服器報告系統之位置及狀態。此將容許在領域中經由網際網路及經雲端連接之電腦伺服器對任何數目個可攜式冷凍系統之遠端管理。 冰箱可將腔室內保持為低於10℃而無需下降至低於0℃、或另一所要溫度目標或範圍。舉例來說,使用者可選擇約6℃ (例如,2℃至8℃)之一所要溫度範圍。由冰箱中之一恆溫器進行之溫度量測可具有大於+/-1℃之一公差。 CPU可控制溫度之設定點。CPU可取決於冰箱之電源及所要溫度範圍改變腔室中溫度之設定點。舉例而言,若冰箱正以主電源運作,則CPU可將腔室溫度設定點設定成接近所選擇之溫度範圍之下端(例如,在來自範圍之底部之25%處)或底部。接著,腔室內容物可盡可能多地經冷凍使得當主電源斷開時,冰箱之內容物必須進一步增溫以退出所要範圍之頂部。此可導致一更長總運作時間。 若冰箱正以電池電力運作,則CPU可將腔室溫度設定點設定成接近所選擇之溫度範圍之上端(例如,來自範圍之底部之75%)之一溫度。電池電力使用可與裝置之內部溫度與外部溫度之間之差值成比例,故容許內部溫度上升可減小自電池汲取之電力,從而延長電池壽命。 當冰箱由主電源供電時,可依一較高速率對內部電池充電,可在約4小時內對該電池再充電。若唯一可用之外部電源係太陽能,則CPU可藉由將其自主電源連接期間之速率減小至太陽能面板可支援之一位準來控制電池充電速率。此可取決於由將前述資料遞送至CPU之感測器或僅由量測來自太陽能面板之輸入電壓之CPU直接偵測之面板相對於態樣之定向以及季節、時間及大氣透明度。在此情況中,該腔室溫度設定點可由CPU設定,儘管該CPU係以電池電力運作。 可由CPU每秒至少一次檢查電力條件,且可據此調整內部設定。 圖7係用於冰箱之例示性效能規格之一表。 圖8繪示一冷凍單元管理系統可具有可攜式冷凍單元、一遠端電腦、一運作者電腦、或其等之組合。遠端電腦及/或運作者電腦可各自係一或多個伺服器、桌上型電腦或膝上型電腦、諸如智慧型電話之行動裝置、平板電腦、PDA、條形碼掃描器、或其等之組合。

[0002] This application is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety in its entirety in its entirety in the the the the the the the the the the the the Figure 1a, Figure 1a' and Figure 1a'' show a portable freezer unit (also referred to herein as a refrigerator) of about 30 inches high, 10 inches wide, and 14 inches deep, or having a smaller size. ). The portable refrigeration unit can contain an insulated container within the assembly that can have a cold or internal space of about 4 to 12 liters capacity (e.g., an 8 liter capacity). The insulative container can be retained within a housing assembly and has an insulated door to permit access to the contents of the insulative container. The insulated door is rotatable about a door hinge at both the top and bottom of the door. When the insulating door is pressed against the housing assembly, a seal can be created which maintains the internal cold temperature to a relatively high ambient temperature. The refrigerator unit may have a detachable photovoltaic panel assembly consisting of a photovoltaic battery. The photovoltaic panel assembly is for generating electricity from incident sunlight that falls on the photovoltaic cells. The photovoltaic panel assembly can be retained on the side of the portable refrigerator during transport by using panel mounting tabs that capture the top and bottom edges of the photovoltaic panel. The unit may have an AC outlet and/or plug and wires, for example for unit operation and grid charging. Attached to the top of the assembly is a baffle that provides a location for the graphical user interface screen to be placed and accessed. As shown in Figure 1a', the unit can have a touch screen user interface screen. The unit may have an inlet passage, such as a cooling inlet. The interior space of the chamber may have a shelf (as shown in Figures 5a to 5e) and/or a custom section. The unit can have a carrying handle (hidden by the shell in Figure 1a') that can be folded to be placed flush with the top surface of the unit when the handle is not in use. The housing of the unit can have a photovoltaic panel assembly or solar panel that is, for example, hingedly attached to the remainder of the housing such that the solar panel can be rotated upwards for a stronger charge when desired More directly facing the sun. The unit can have a power plug (eg, for attachment to one of the AC mains power AC plugs). The plug can be on an extendable power line and can be retracted and hidden by the solar panel when not extended. Fig. 1a'' illustrates that the insulated door of the unit is rotatably opened to access the insulated container or interior space of the unit. Figure 1b shows the front of a portable refrigeration unit having an air inlet or cooling inlet slot for a heat exchanger discharge circuit visible near the top of the system. The system shown in Figure 1b has a closed insulated door and a door lock shown in the locked position, thus keeping the door closed under compression for delivery. Figure 1c shows the right side of the outer casing of the portable refrigeration unit, wherein the side material of the outer casing is made of sheet metal. This material can be aluminum, steel or another lightweight alloy suitable for long-lasting external use. Figure 1d shows the back of a portable refrigeration unit having an air inlet slot disposed proximate the top of the assembly. An AC power inlet for the connection of a power line can also be found on the back panel of the unit. The inlet close to the power line can be a fuse holder and one of the power switches for the safety and operation of the unit during energization. Figure 1e shows the top of a portable refrigeration unit with a venting vent in the top of the baffle. This discharge region allows hot gas to be released from the heat exchanger assembly during operation and, more specifically, for the exhaust fan to vent the thermal system during its operation. Above the heat removal area is a carrying handle that is integrated into the baffle at the top of the unit. The handle allows the portable unit to be lifted in a manner similar to one of the suitcases. The portable freezer unit can weigh less than about 22 kg, for example, depending on component selection, battery size, and insulated container capacity from about 6 kg to about 22 kg. This unit can be used in the field of delivery of cool items. Figure 2 shows a photovoltaic panel that is not mounted from the side of the unit assembly, thus allowing the panel to be placed at a distance from the unit to collect sunlight and generate electricity to charge the onboard battery system. The length of the hook cable used between the photovoltaic panel and the unit determines the distance that the panel can be separated from the unit. A typical hook cable length can be from 5 meters to 15 meters, thus allowing the panel to be placed outside of the clinic area of one of the portable refrigeration units through an open window. An unattached baffle is also shown, as it is required for initial assembly and may be used for servo exhaust fans or for access to the microcontroller printed circuit board hidden behind the user interface screen. The baffle should be removed to allow access to the wiring, or to switch one of the subscriber identification cards attached to the communication printed circuit board of the microcontroller PCB. Figure 3a shows the internal components of a portable refrigeration system. Show insulated containers that do not have a surrounding vacuum insulated panel insulation assembly. A heat exchanger assembly is placed on top of the insulated container assembly. A power pack assembly disposed below the insulated container assembly of the assembly. The power pack contains a rechargeable battery that can have a lithium ion type (LiON) or a lithium ion (LiFE) material or a more conventional variety of lead acid. The batteries are located proximate to the charge controller and system power supply, which determines the appropriate battery charge level and converts the incoming AC power to the appropriate DC power for use in the system. Figure 3b shows a vacuum insulated panel assembly having a flat panel and an individual panel in a curved configuration. The panels may be made of expanded foam, metallized film and/or aluminum foil that have been joined and then sealed under vacuum, thus creating a highly efficient insulating sheet material. The vacuum insulated panel assembly can be used as a set of insulated container portions of the device, and the assembly maintains the interior portion of the system as cold as needed to provide the appropriate cooling level to the contents of the portable refrigeration system. . Figure 3c shows the insulated door separated from the portable refrigeration system and demonstrates how the door can be mounted on the hinge and swayed into the correct position and abutted as shown in the previous figures. The user interface screen located in the bezel member of the device has both touch screen capability and soft key functionality, and the software functionality allows the input screen to be changed depending on the user's intention and stage of use. A printed circuit board (PCB) is provided behind the user interface screen, which contains a microcontroller for system level operation, monitoring, power adjustment, and feedback to the onboard communication module in the form of temperature readings, which can be used for the unit The tracking algorithm (which includes receiving satellite location data) and communicates with the Internet cloud. Figure 4a shows a thermoelectric module mounted to the outer side of an insulated container. The top of the insulating container is composed of a metallic material such as aluminum to promote a good cooling effect of the thermoelectric module. This portion of the assembly is referred to as the cold plate because it is on the cold side of the self-heating module. Figure 4b shows the heat exchanger assembly and its accompanying components. By using a module mounting frame, a module mounting post, and a module mounting bracket, the thermoelectric module or the TE module directly contacts the cold plate of the insulating container for stable compression against the cold plate on the top of the insulating container. TE module. The assembly of the TE module typically provides a thermal glue to better assist in the conduction of thermal energy away from the cold plate and conduct it to the side of the hot plate placed in contact with the TE module and placed on top of the TE module. Figure 4b also shows the top side of the TE module that is in direct contact with the hot plate via a heat pipe with a highly conductive material that directly contacts the heat exchanger at the top of the system. The heat exchanger assembly has a design that is particularly adapted to conduct a large amount of heat away from a relatively small area in an efficient and solid state manner, whereby the hot plate or heat pipe does not move during normal operation, thereby saving the component Possible changes due to the rapid increase in temperature. The heat pipe extends through the heat exchanger at the top of the assembly such that heat conducted away from the hot plate is discharged to the heat exchanger, which in turn is cooled by a top mounted exhaust fan that absorbs heat exchange The heat outside the unit is transmitted away from the portable freezing unit. 5a to 5e illustrate that the interior space or chamber of the insulated container may have one or more shelves. The shelves can be oriented parallel and horizontally relative to one another. The shelves are slidably extendable and are slidably removed from the interior space. The shelves can be locked into position within the interior space. The refrigerator unit may have a cold box attached to an outer surface of the insulated container. The cold boxes can each have a reservoir filled with 350 g of phase change material (eg, PCM-OM06P from RGEES LLC of Arden, NC). The phase change material can change phase at 5.5 C. The cold boxes can have high latent heat storage and can safely contact temperature sensitive loads. The cold box can be rectangular and can be attached to the side, top, bottom, back, or the like of the insulated container. The cold boxes can be attached to the insulated doors. The cold boxes can be slidably removed from the refrigerator unit. For example, warmer cold boxes can be exchanged for cooler cold boxes. Figure 6 shows the functionality of the electronic components of the system and their like in an exemplary layout representing their connections and related functionality. The block diagram shows the AC main inlet to the AC-DC power supply and converter. This component provides DC power to the system through a repeater. The AC main power source can also be connected to one of the battery chargers that charge the battery pack. The battery can then provide DC power to the system through the repeater. When the photovoltaic solar panels are connected and generate electricity, they can feed DC power into a solar charge controller, which in turn can charge the battery. Next, the battery can run DC power to the system through the repeater, which is the same as when charging from the AC mains. The microcontroller central processing unit (CPU) controls the logic of the system and distributes the DC power to system-level components that include thermoelectric modules, resistive heaters, and exhaust fans. The microcontroller also sends a small DC voltage to the thermistor that reads the internal temperature of the insulated container and the external ambient temperature. The microcontroller is also coupled to a communication module that includes a GPS receiver for determining global location via satellite and GPRS/GSM modems, the GPRS/GSM modem providing Internet and support device functionality The data is taken from the connection of the cloud-based server. The electronic system designed for the portable freezing unit is based on a PIC24EP processor that can have one of the 320 x 240 TFT color displays with a touch panel. This provides a user interface for the unit and also monitors and controls the heating or cooling of the freezing chamber. The presence of the TE module allows for cooling of the insulated container. The possible addition of one of the smaller insulated heaters in the insulated container also means that the system can be used to heat the contents, which is sufficient to avoid any risk of freezing the contents. A power MOSFET connected to the IO pin on the processor provides control of the thermoelectric module, a resistive heater, and a fan. The temperature of the freezer compartment and the TE module heatsink is monitored using an NTC thermistor on the processor connected to the analog input. The resulting voltage was converted using an on-board analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and the actual temperature was calculated using the standard Steinhart-Hart algorithm and displayed. The temperature is conventionally sampled, and as an example, the temperature is sampled at a rate of once per second, and the temperatures are averaged by the firmware within one of the time periods of 8 seconds. The tough system is based on one of the periodic interruptions in the range of 1 to 100 times per second. As an example, in the case where 20 times per second, this divides each second into 20 time slots. Various processor tasks are assigned to different time slots to equalize the load on the processor and allow for better power management. At each break, the touch panel is sampled to determine if the user has entered anything into the system. Temperature control can be accomplished using a simple on/off thermostat type algorithm with a 0.1 C hysteresis. The user selects a control set point via a menu. The preset can be any temperature but is likely to be 5 C. When the temperature is higher than the set point minus the hysteresis, the TE module is turned on. When the temperature drops below the point, the TE module is disconnected. When the temperature rises above the set point plus hysteresis, the TE module is turned back on. This cycle can take from 30 seconds to 10 minutes, and as an example, this cycle maintains the chamber temperature within +0.3 C and -0.1 C. The temperature of the TE module heat exchanger can also be controlled via a fan. If the heat exchanger temperature rises above a set maximum, such as 40C, the fan can be turned on until the temperature drops to a safe level, possibly below 35C. This cycle can take anywhere from 10 seconds to several minutes depending on the ambient temperature. The CPU may have features that support a GSM (Mobile Phone Type) modem and a GPS receiver. The combination of these two interfaces will allow the portable refrigeration system to determine its location via the GPS receiver and then use the GSM telephone interface to report the location and status of the system to a server. This will allow remote management of any number of portable freeze systems in the field via the Internet and cloud-connected computer servers. The refrigerator can maintain the chamber below 10 ° C without dropping to below 0 ° C, or another desired temperature target or range. For example, the user can select one of the desired temperature ranges of about 6 ° C (eg, 2 ° C to 8 ° C). The temperature measurement by one of the thermostats in the refrigerator may have a tolerance greater than +/- 1 °C. The CPU can control the set point of the temperature. The CPU can change the set point of the temperature in the chamber depending on the power source of the refrigerator and the desired temperature range. For example, if the refrigerator is operating at primary power, the CPU can set the chamber temperature set point to be near the lower end of the selected temperature range (eg, at 25% from the bottom of the range) or the bottom. The chamber contents can then be frozen as much as possible so that when the main power source is disconnected, the contents of the refrigerator must be further warmed to exit the top of the desired range. This can result in a longer total operating time. If the refrigerator is operating on battery power, the CPU can set the chamber temperature set point to a temperature near one of the upper ends of the selected temperature range (eg, 75% from the bottom of the range). Battery power usage can be proportional to the difference between the internal and external temperatures of the device, so allowing the internal temperature to rise can reduce the power drawn from the battery, thereby extending battery life. When the refrigerator is powered by the main power source, the internal battery can be charged at a higher rate and the battery can be recharged in about 4 hours. If the only external power source available is solar, the CPU can control the battery charging rate by reducing the rate during its autonomous power connection to one level supported by the solar panel. This may depend on the orientation of the panel relative to the aspect and the seasonality, time and atmospheric transparency of the panel directly detected by the sensor that delivers the aforementioned data to the CPU or only by the CPU that measures the input voltage from the solar panel. In this case, the chamber temperature set point can be set by the CPU, although the CPU operates on battery power. The power condition can be checked by the CPU at least once per second, and the internal settings can be adjusted accordingly. Figure 7 is a table of exemplary performance specifications for a refrigerator. 8 illustrates a freezing unit management system that can have a portable freezing unit, a remote computer, a carrier computer, or a combination thereof. The remote computer and/or the carrier computer can each be one or more servers, a desktop or laptop, a mobile device such as a smart phone, a tablet, a PDA, a barcode scanner, or the like. combination. The portable freezing unit can communicate with the remote computer through a remote to refrigerator connection. The operator's computer can be carried by a carrier or carried in a vehicle carrying a portable refrigeration unit. The carrier computer can communicate with the remote computer through a remote to carrier connection. The portable freezing unit can communicate with the carrier computer through a carrier to the refrigerator. Any connection may be through a regional network, a wide area network, a wireless fidelity, a Bluetooth, a mobile phone type connection (eg, GSM), infrared, optical (eg, barcode scanning), or combinations thereof. The remote computer and/or the carrier computer can receive and/or request information from the portable freezing unit that includes the current and/or historical temperature of the interior space of the unit and/or the ambient temperature outside the unit (eg, the unit can The digital thermometer inside and/or outside the unit communicates with the CPU in the unit, which can send the temperature to the remote and/or carrier computer), the location of the unit, the item stored in the unit, and the like. (For example, this can be manually typed into the memory of the unit and/or this can be used to scan the internal space in the internal space and use the image recognition software, and/or only the image itself can be sent as one of the contents of the internal space. An optical scanner to determine), or a combination thereof. The remote computer and/or the carrier computer can send the data to the freezing unit to adjust the unit settings (for example, by increasing the temperature in the internal space and/or reducing the operating cycle frequency of the unit to extend battery life). The freezing unit and/or the remote computer can, for example, be based on current electrical load, unit travel speed (based on GPS readings), and travel to destination when the remaining power in the battery is below one level required to reach the intended destination The remaining length of the ground, a message is sent to the operator's computer to request the operator to stop, the plug in the unit is delivered to a power source or the solar panel is exposed to the sun or another light source, and also when there is a fault in the unit , alert the operator computer (for example, based on an unexpectedly higher internal space temperature or lower internal space temperature). Figure 9 illustrates a portable refrigerator unit that can be in a network-connected refrigeration system. The system can have a node (such as a remote node, such as a server (eg, a cloud server)), a provisioning manager terminal, a medical technician terminal, and a local end node (such as a refrigerator unit), or a combination thereof . These nodes can communicate directly or indirectly with each other, for example, via the Internet through a cloud server. The terminals can be desktop computers, laptop computers, handheld devices (eg, tablets, smart phones), or combinations thereof. The refrigerator unit can communicate with the cloud server (e.g., via a satellite and/or GPRS/GSM modem, and/or a direct-wired Ethernet connection). This unit can upload unit upload data to the cloud server. The unit upload data may include, for example, location data (which includes current location and previous location) or path, battery charging level, internal temperature, external temperature, desired route, serial number for identification unit and/or driver/messenger Information, manual typing of nodes (eg, information about local environmental conditions entered by the drive), desired/pre-set maximum, minimum internal temperature, and/or temperature range, or combinations thereof. An algorithm executed on one of the units of the processor and/or another node in the cloud server and/or system may be based on location, desired route, battery charging, internal temperature, external temperature, and desired maximum and minimum internal temperatures , and / or temperature range, or a combination thereof, to calculate the remaining distance range of the unit. (This calculation can also be performed by the algorithm on the unit itself.) The algorithm will calculate the estimated remaining battery charge to maintain the internal temperature of the unit within the desired temperature range (eg, it contains below or above the maximum temperature) The time within, and then one of the unit distance ranges can be estimated based on the projected unit velocity. The cloud server can download the unit download data to the unit, the data includes a range of distances, and whether the unit is expected to reach a desired target position or endpoint before the internal temperature of the unit is no longer within the desired range, maximum, or minimum. The cloud server (or other node) can use an email interface, text or SMS message (such as displayed for the medical technician interface), automatic audio message (such as the attachment of the aforementioned method) or audio line, or the like. Combine to disperse any of the materials disclosed herein to any node. 10, FIG. 11a to FIG. 11c, and FIG. 12a to FIG. 12c illustrate a user interface screen, a remote computer, a carrier computer, or the like, which can display information provided by the unit and/or calculated by any node. . The user interface screen can be accessed and viewed on the unit and/or any interface. Figure 10 illustrates a display that can be a summary display, screen or page or has a summary display, screen or page. This summary page shows the internal unit temperature relative to time. This summary page shows the expected battery remaining operational time. The operable time may be that the battery may power the unit based on remaining charge of the battery to maintain the internal space for a remaining time below a desired temperature. The summary page can show one of the expected remaining times to the destination of the delivery unit. Figure 11a illustrates that the display can be a map display, screen or page or have a map display, screen or page. The map display may depict a map showing the current location of the unit, the starting location of the containing unit, the path of the desired destination of the unit, the estimated allowable unit range, to a desired destination (eg, at A projected path that is estimated to allow one of the desired destinations within the range of cells. The allowable range may be the distance that the system can travel based on battery charging, desired internal temperature, external temperature, projected speed, and combinations thereof. Figure 11b illustrates that the map display can display various estimated allowable ranges based on different battery charging levels. For example, if the battery has five hours of remaining charge, a first allowable range can be displayed based on other available materials. If the battery has eight hours of remaining charge, a second allowable range can be displayed based on other available materials. If the battery has twelve hours of remaining charge, a third allowable range can be displayed based on other available materials. The projected range may be communicated to the operator or other user to extend the range to a particular desired destination based on the potential need for additional charging of the battery. Figures 11a and 11b illustrate a circle that can estimate the allowable range as a constant radius defining the current position of the unit. Figure 11c illustrates that the system can calculate an allowable range based on expected speeds and distances along a particular route rather than as a constant radius. The system can calculate which desired destinations are within an allowable range (eg, with inspection indicia) and which desired destinations are not within an allowable range (eg, have a cross or "X") based on current battery charging data and other data. Figure 12a illustrates that the display can be a first temperature controlled display, screen or page or has a first temperature controlled display, screen or page. The first temperature control page can display the current internal temperature of the unit (internal space) and/or ambient temperature (outside), the desired temperature range of the internal space, the strength of the network communication connection, the percentage of battery charge remaining, or the like.

Figure 12b illustrates that the display can be a second temperature controlled display, screen or page or have a second temperature controlled display, screen or page. The second temperature control page can display the operating time of the unit so far in the trip (for example, "HRS OPS") (the operation time can be manually or automatically reset before each trip starts), the current set temperature range, and Controlling the temperature range (eg, "+" and "-" for increasing and decreasing the temperature, respectively, the latest set temperature range, the strength of the network communication connection, the percentage of battery charge remaining, or A combination of the same. In the second temperature control page, the user can modify the desired temperature range of the interior space. The second temperature control page can have a button (eg, "continue") to be promoted to a third temperature control page. Figure 12c illustrates that the display can be a third temperature controlled display, screen or page or has a third temperature controlled display, screen or page.
