Interchangeable container for storage and transportation of e.g. temperature-sensitive goods in trailer, has power generator to supply electrical power to electrical load which is not component of cooling device

摘要

The container (1) has a cooling device for keeping a thermally insulated chamber (11) at moderate temperature with respect to the environment. A power generator (6) is permanently fastened in a retainer for supplying electrical power to an electrical load e.g. socket (10), that is connectable to a terminal of an electrical appliance e.g. refrigerator. A controller controls the power generator such that the socket and/or the cooling device are optionally supplyable with electrical power. The electrical load is not provided as a component of the cooling device. The electrical load is selected from a group comprising a lamp, headlight, machine tool, loading aid and/or medical apparatus.
