Ventilated cargo container

Abstract

This invention relates generally to cargo containers, and more particularly to cargo containers that are ventilated to remove any heat that is generated by the cargo container's contents. A cargo container typically comprises first and second side walls, an end wall, an entry wall defining a door, and a floor and ceiling. In one embodiment, the cargo container has a ventilation system defining first and second air-flow pathways along respective side walls and flowing from the floor to about the ceiling. In a further embodiment, the container has a ventilation system defining a transverse air flow pathway through respective side walls and flowing between the floor and ceiling.

We claim: 
     
         1 . A ventilated cargo container comprising:
 first and second side walls, an end wall, an entry wall defining a door, a floor and a ceiling;   the cargo container having a ventilation system defining an air-flow pathway about along each side wall and flowing from the floor to about the ceiling.
