[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0025] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-5The present invention provides the following technical solution: a marine platform container with thermal insulation performance, including a support mechanism 1 and a thermal insulation mechanism 2, wherein the thermal insulation mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to the inside of the support mechanism 1.

[0026] The thermal insulation mechanism 2 includes a barrier unit and a forced ventilation unit. The barrier unit is fixedly connected to the inside of the support mechanism 1, and the forced ventilation unit is disposed on the surface of the support mechanism 1 and the thermal insulation mechanism 2.

[0027] The support mechanism 1 consists of a support frame 101, connectors 102, an outer plate 103, double-layer insulated windows 104, a door panel 105, and through holes 106 in the outer plate. The support frame 101 is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloy steel and is welded to form a stable frame structure, providing load-bearing and support for the entire container. The connectors 102 use a combination of specially designed high-strength bolts and nuts to fix the edges and corners of the support frame 101, further enhancing the connection strength and stability of the frame and ensuring that the container can maintain its structural integrity in harsh marine environments. The outer plate 103 is made of steel plate with excellent weather resistance and has a special anti-corrosion coating, which can effectively resist the corrosion of salt, moisture, and strong winds in the marine environment. It is fixedly connected to the surface of the support frame 101 to form the container. The outer protective layer of the container features double-layered insulated windows 104 on the surface of the outer panel 103. The frames are made of thermally broken aluminum, with thermal break strips separating the aluminum alloy profiles to prevent heat conduction. The windows use double-glazed Low-E glass, filled with argon gas to significantly reduce the thermal conductivity of the glass and minimize heat transfer through the windows. Door panels 105 are hinged to the surface of the outer panel 103. Door panels 105 also employ a double-layered structure, with internal insulation material and an external corrosion-resistant steel plate for support and protection. They are equipped with high-performance sealing strips and locking devices to ensure a tight seal when closed, preventing air leakage. Through-holes 106 in the outer panel are used to install forced ventilation units, the location and number of which are rationally determined based on the internal space layout and ventilation requirements of the container.

[0028] The insulation unit consists of an inner insulation board 201, inner board through-holes 202, and insulation cotton 203. The inner insulation board 201 is made of a lightweight material with excellent thermal insulation performance, such as silica aerogel board, and is fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer board 103 to form a thermal insulation interlayer between the inner and outer boards 103. The inner board through-holes 202 are opened on the surface of the inner insulation board 201, and their positions correspond to the outer board through-holes 106. They are used to install components of the forced ventilation unit. The insulation cotton 203 is made of high-efficiency thermal insulation glass fiber cotton or rock wool and is filled inside the inner insulation board 201. It can effectively block the conduction of heat and reduce the interference of external noise to the interior of the container. The forced ventilation unit consists of a sealed connecting shell 211, a ventilation grille 212, an opening and closing plate 213, a folding frame 214, a connecting frame 215, a drive motor 216, and an exhaust fan 217. The sealed connecting shell 211 is made of a material that is resistant to high and low temperatures and has good sealing performance. Its shape matches the through holes 106 of the outer plate and 202 of the inner plate, and it is fixedly connected inside the through holes to ensure a tight connection with the outer plate 103 and the inner heat insulation plate 201. The gaps between the sealed connecting shell 211 and the double-layer heat insulation window 104 and the door panel 105 are filled with heat-insulating sealant to further ensure a tight fit when the doors and windows are closed and prevent air leakage. The ventilation grille 212 is fixedly connected to the outside of the sealed connecting shell 211 and is made of corrosion-resistant metal, serving to protect and guide air circulation. The hinged plate 213 is movably connected to the inside of the sealed connecting shell 211 via a hinge. A sealing strip is provided at the joint between the hinged plate 213 and the sealed connecting shell 211 to ensure that no air leakage occurs when the hinged plate 213 is closed. A folding frame 214 is located between the sealed connecting shell 211 and the hinged plate 213, allowing the user to manually open or close the hinged plate 213. A connecting frame 215 is fixedly connected to the inside of the sealed connecting shell 211 and is used to install the drive motor 216 and the exhaust fan 217. The drive motor 216 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frame 215, and the exhaust fan 217 is rotatably connected to the other side of the connecting frame 215. It is driven by a high-efficiency and energy-saving motor and can provide forced ventilation as needed to ensure air circulation inside the container, reduce internal humidity, and prevent condensation caused by excessive humidity, which would affect the thermal insulation effect and the safety of material storage.

[0029] In use, the support frame 101 forms a stable structure using high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloy steel and welding technology. The outer layer 103 resists the marine environment with weather-resistant steel plates and anti-corrosion coatings. The double-layer insulated window 104 reduces heat conduction by using a thermally broken aluminum frame and argon-filled double-layer Low-E glass. The double-layer structure of the door panel 105 and the sealing strip ensure airtightness when closed, together forming an external protection and preliminary heat insulation system. In the barrier unit, the inner heat insulation board 201 and the outer layer 103 form an insulation sandwich layer, which is filled inside the inner heat insulation board 201. The insulation cotton 203 further blocks heat conduction and absorbs noise. In the forced ventilation unit, the sealed connecting shell 211 is fixed in the through hole 106 of the outer plate and the through hole 202 of the inner plate. The ventilation grille 212 guides air circulation. When forced ventilation is required, the drive motor 216 drives the folding frame 214 to unfold the opening and closing plate 213 through the transmission device. The exhaust fan 217 starts to accelerate air circulation to reduce internal humidity and prevent condensation. At the same time, the insulation sealant and sealing strip of each connection gap ensure the overall sealing performance and achieve efficient heat insulation of the container.

However, this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the claims of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
