Shockproof/heat insulated container

Abstract From the Canadian patent

The improved double-walled transport container for transporting liquids and gases which have to be protected against heating or cooling and against mechanical shock, has a fully insulated inner vessel and an outer vessel comprising an upper shell, a lower shell and two arched floors. A shock-absorbing and thermally insulating layer is provided between the outer and the inner vessel and support flanges extend over the entire length of the outer vessel. The sum of the distances between the floors of the inner and the outer vessel is at least equal to the distance of the crest of the arch from the margin of a bottom of the outer vessel.
