<p>PURPOSE:To reduce the heat loss and increase the heat-transfer efficiency so as to cool or heat two containers evenly and efficiently. CONSTITUTION:The inside of the case of an apparatus, which is set inside a vehicle and on which a front cover 6 is fitted, is divided by a partition 15 into a container-holding part 13 and a holder space 14. In the container-holding part 13 a heat-transfer member 4 is provided for the transfer of the heat of an electronic cooling/heating element 3 to a container (containers) 2 in the performance of cooling and heating. In the holding space 14 a heat- exchange member 5 consisting of a heat-radiating base board 51 and a fan mechanism 52 is provided for the heat exchange of the electronic cooling/heating element 3. The heat-transfer member 4 has a pair of container holders 43 and a heat-storage part 44 and is fitted with the electronic cooling/heating element 3: the container holders 43 consist of a side wall 41 which covers roughly half of the side wall 21 of each container 2 and a bottom wall part 42 on which roughly half of the bottom of each container 2 is laid and transfer heat to containers 2 by contact with them; the heat-storage part 44 transfers the heat of the electronic cooling/heating element 3 to the container holders 43 simultaneously with storing of the heat. In the container-holding part 13 an elastic member 9 is provided, by means of which the containers 2 are held in a manner of each allowing itself to be put in place and taken out as a presser part 92 presses the side wall 21 of the container 2 against the side wall 41 of the heat-transfer member 4.</p> |
