A chilling container includes a chilling agent chamber and a chilled goods chamber. The chilling agent chamber is sealed shut to contain e.g. dry ice, is highly insulated from the outside, and is connected by a pressure passage system to the chilled goods chamber which has an opening to the outside and a door. The chilling agent is vaporized in the chilling agent chamber by removal of the heat. A pressure drop occurs and therewith a forced movement with a forced circulation of the vaporized gases into the chilled goods chamber. A wall containing the pressure passage system is cooler and is opposite the door causing convection circulation which reinforces the forced circulation. A wall separating the chambers is relatively highly heat conductive.

A container for chilling material received therein via a chilling agent, the combination comprising: a first closed chamber for receiving the material and having insulated walls including an insulated door; a second closed chamber for receiving the chilling agent therein, said second chamber being insulated and located above said first chamber; and means for creating a forced flow, via a pressure differential, of the chilling agent from said second chamber, down a first wall of said first chamber, and into and then out of said first chamber, and for creating convection currents of the chilling agent in said first chamber, said means comprising a continuous pressure passage extending along said first wall of said first chamber, an upper opening in said pressure passage located adjacent said second chamber and communicating with the interior of said second chamber, said upper opening being smaller in dimension relative to the interior of said second chamber, a lower opening in said pressure passage located adjacent the bottom of said first chamber and communicating with the interior of said first chamber, and a second upper opening located adjacent the top of said first chamber and leading to the atmosphere, said second upper opening being located in a wall of said first chamber other than said first wall, said continuous pressure passage having no openings therein between said upper and lower openings.
