Passive cold storage container systems with packaging tray and retention plate
First Claim
1. A storage rack assembly for holding medicinal carriers comprising:
- a first storage unit at least partially bounding a compartment and having an access opening that communicates with the compartment;
a first tray removably disposed within the compartment of the first storage unit, the first tray comprising;
a floor having a top surface; and
a plurality of spacers upstanding from the top surface of the floor and being spaced apart so that the medicinal carriers can be positioned between the spacers, the plurality of spacers comprising a plurality of spaced apart primary spacers and a plurality of spaced apart engagement spacers, the engagement spacers having a length greater than a length of the primary spacers; and
a first retention plate having a top surface and an opposing bottom surface with a plurality of openings extending therebetween, the first retention plate being at least partially disposed within the compartment of the first storage unit so that the first retention plate is disposed above the primary spacers and each engagement spacer projects through a corresponding one of the plurality of openings.

Abstract
A passive cold storage container system includes a container bounding a storage area with at least one heat sink module disposed therein. A first storage unit having a compartment is also disposed within the storage area. A first tray is removably disposed within the compartment of the first storage unit, the first tray having a floor with a top surface and a plurality of spacers upstanding from the top surface of the floor and being spaced apart. A plurality of medicinal carriers are disposed on the first tray between the spacers, each medicinal carrier housing a medicinal preparation. A first retention plate is disposed within the compartment of the first storage unit and is positioned over the plurality of medicinal carriers.
