Hardened reusable modular shipper

In general, one aspect of the subject matter described in this specification is embodied in a rack system. The rack system includes a first stackable rack and a second stackable rack. The first stackable rack includes a top ceiling, a bottom surface, a first sidewall and a second sidewall. The second stackable rack includes a top ceiling, a bottom surface, a first sidewall, a second sidewall and a shelf. The top ceiling, the bottom surface, the first sidewall, the second sidewall and the shelf of the second stackable rack define a first compartment and a second compartment. The bottom surface of the first stackable rack is slidably coupled with the top ceiling of the second stackable rack.

Stackable rack system

Method, system, apparatus, and/or device for monitoring a shipment. The vapor plug system includes a vapor plug. The vapor plug fits onto a shipper and partially seals contents within a payload area of a shipper. The vapor plug system includes a sensor that is configured to measure or determine a condition or location of the shipper. The vapor plug system includes an electronic device that has a display. The display is configured to provide the condition or the location to a user. The vapor plug system includes a vapor plug adapter. The vapor plug adapter includes a recessed pocket that is configured to receive the electronic device. The vapor plug adapter includes an opening within the recessed pocket and is configured to receive the sensor and allow the sensor to be inserted into the payload area of the shipper.

Dry vapor dewar temperature monitoring retrofit lid adapter

Method, system, apparatus, and/or device for drying a dewar. The dewar drying apparatus includes a heating element. The heating element is configured to produce heat that warms a payload area within the dewar. The dewar drying apparatus includes a controller. The controller is coupled to the heating element and configured to determine or detect a temperature within the payload area of the dewar. The controller is configured to control, using the heating element, the temperature within the payload area of the dewar to evaporate a liquid or a gas within the payload area.

Dewar drying device

Methods, systems, devices and/or apparatuses for a protective liner that protects products and/or commodities from cross-contamination during transport and/or storage using a cryogenic shipping container. The protective liner lines a shipping container, such as a dewar. The protective liner is positioned within the shipping container. The protective liner includes one or more tabs positioned on a perimeter of the protective liner. The one or more tabs are configured to interlock with a notch on an inside surface of the shipping container. The protective liner includes a clearance channel on a side of the protective barrier and configured to guide a temperature sensor lead wire.

Cryoliner

Methods, apparatus, and device, for a cryogenic storage system that stores and/or transports a liquid or gas at a temperature below ambient temperature. The cryogenic storage system has an enclosure assembly. The cryogenic storage system has a dewar that is positioned within the enclosure assembly. The enclosure assembly may comprise be configured to provide little to no friction between the dewar and the enclosure assembly. The enclosure assembly may be configured for shock absorption and/or vibration damping for the dewar during transferring of the cryogenic storage system.

Cryosphere

Hardened reusable shipping containers with a reversible label holder and methods of using the same are disclosed herein. A hardened reusable shipping container may have a base enclosure having a payload area that is configured to receive a payload and maintain a temperature of an environment surrounding the payload. The base enclosure may further have an exterior surrounding the payload area. The exterior may include multiple walls. One of the multiple walls may define a recess. The hardened reusable shipping container may have a plate having a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface. The plate may be configured to be removably inserted into the recess and display one or more visuals on at least one of the first surface and the second surface.

Hardened reusable shipper with reversible label holder

Methods, systems, devices and/or apparatuses for an electronic shipping label. The electronic shipping label includes a communication device that is configured to obtain from an electronic device multiple electronic image files. The electronic shipping label includes a touch-screen display that has one or more user interface elements that are configured to toggle among the multiple electronic image files and initiate access to the shipping container. The electronic shipping label includes a processor. The processor is configured to obtain a first electronic image file from the multiple electronic image files. The processor is configured to render the first electronic image file during a first leg of the plurality of legs of the shipping itinerary. The processor is configured to access a second electronic image file from the multiple electronic image files or the shipping container when the one or more user interface elements are selected.

Digital smart label for shipper with data logger

Method, system, apparatus, and/or device for determining when the dewar is filled with a medium. The fill gauge level apparatus includes a cylindrical body. The cylindrical body has a base on one end, a flange on an opposite open end and a cavity. The fill gauge level apparatus includes a fill gauge level device. The fill gauge level device is coupled to the cylindrical body and is positioned within the cavity. The fill gauge level devices includes a sensor for measuring a medium within a shipper. The fill gauge level devices includes an indicator. The indicator provides an indication when the medium has been filled to a threshold level within the shipper.

LN2 fill gauge level indicating device

Methods, apparatus, and device, for a cryogenic storage system that stores and/or transports a liquid or gas at a temperature below ambient temperature. The cryogenic storage system has an enclosure and a cavity. The cryogenic storage system has a dewar that is positioned within the cavity of the enclosure. The dewar has a payload area that is configured to hold a liquid below ambient temperature. The dewar is configured to hold a liquid below ambient temperature and passively stabilize in an upright position. The dewar is formed with an inner wall and an outer wall and has an opening that allows access to the payload area.

Methods, apparatus, and device, such as a vapor plug, which partially seals an opening of a dewar. The vapor plug includes a vapor plug cover. The vapor plug cover is configured to cover an opening of a dewar. The vapor plug includes a neck that is formed from multiple disks and multiple sheets. The vapor plug includes a fastener that connects the multiple disks, the multiple sheets and the vapor plug cover.
