Benefits of technology

[0020] An advantage of the present invention is that it will keep the worry out of shipping pharmaceutical products from being damaged or stolen due to the double sealing with the outer bubble wrap mailer sealed envelope and sealed inner thermal container.
[0021] A related advantage of the present invention is that it is light weight but still sturdy enough of to survive an impact from other packages many times bigger and heavier in their size.
[0022] One more advantage of the present invention is that it exceeds all prior thermal and package security mailing solutions in the pharmaceutical industry intended to cut down the cost of cold temperature packaging.

Problems solved by technology

The current packaging being used today isn't the most cost effective packaging due to the lack of package sizes for small shipments, such as individual medical supply shipments and a lack of available packaging alternatives outside of packaging for large shipments of supplies from a manufacturer.
Due to having only oversized packaging available, the packaging for small medical shipments for individual use is often a large percentage of the cost of the actual products being shipped.

Embodiment Construction

[0037] In FIGS. 1-4, a temperature insulated shock resistant mailer system 10 comprising in combination an outer bubble wrap mailer envelope 30 and an inner thermal container 20.

[0038] In FIGS. 1 and 2, the outer bubble wrap mailer envelope 30 comprises a top sheet 31B and a bottom sheet 31A, each sheet 31 having bubble wrap material 33 with insulating and shock absorbing air bubbles 36 interconnected by plastic sheeting 34, as shown in FIG. 2. The two sheets 31A and 31B are heat sealed together to form a seam 32 around the periphery of the two sheets with an opening 35 at one end. The top and bottom sheets 31A and 31B of bubble wrap provide a shock resistant cushion for contents of the bubble wrap mailer envelope as well as thermal insulation for the contents.

[0039] In FIG. 2, a temperature insulating moisture barrier and puncture barrier, such as a combined layer of PERLITE 42 adhered to the bubble wrap 33 with a sealing MYLAR layer 41 to lock the layer of PERLITE in place, are ...

Abstract

An inner thermal container, molded from an expanded polystyrene, seals in temperature sensitive materials with a cooling means for maintaining a low temperature. Inner and outer coatings provide additional thermal, vapor, and moisture insulation. The inner thermal container is inserted and sealed in a bubble wrap mailer envelope with layers of vapor and moisture proof thermal insulation.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] The present utility patent application claims the benefit of provisional application No. 60 / 853,416 filed Oct. 23, 2006.STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0002] Not Applicable. THE NAMES OF THE PARTIES TO A JOINT RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0003] Not Applicable. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention [0004] The present invention relates to mailing packaging and in particular to a combination temperature insulated and shock resistant mailer system having an inner thermal container molded from an expanded polystyrene which seals in temperature sensitive materials with a cooling means for maintaining a low temperature, the inner thermal container being sealed in a bubble wrap mailer envelope with layers of vapor and moisture proof thermal insulation that is puncture resistant, together forming a temperature insulated, puncture resistant, and shock resistant mailer system for transporting a temperature...
