Abstract
A cooling system arrangement for allowing cooled storage and cooled transport of foodstuffs. Further, the cold storage device assembly may have a storage volume that includes at least one reservoir chamber formed by a liquid-tight reservoir wall and is at least partially filled with a cold storage medium. Additionally, heat insulation covers the reservoir chamber on the side facing away from the storage volume. The reservoir wall is an integral part of the cold storage device, and a coolant inlet and outlet are arranged thereon. In addition, a heat exchanger through which at least one coolant duct passes is arranged in or on the reservoir chamber so that coolants coming from the coolant inlet flow through the heat exchanger to the coolant outlet and can withdraw heat from the cold storage medium and/or can cause the cold storage medium to freeze in the process.
