Abstract (en)

A portable heat-insulating container comprises two half-boxes (1,2) of hollow shape, hinged to each other and provided with snaps shutting by means of tongues (8), snapping into suitable seats (8a). The lower half-box or base member (1) contains an insulating spongy body (3) as a resin foam pad with recesses (11, 11a, 11b) for housing at least one vial of injectable product and possibly napkins or cotton compresses. The pad (3) is separated from one side of the container by a rib (10a) defining a space (10) for housing a syringe. Also the upper half-box or cover (2) is filled with a spongy body (4) formed with a cavity (12) for housing a dry-ice accumulator cell (13) of known type. Such a container is particularly but not exclusively useful for insulin vials and all what may be necessary for injections to diabetics.
