METHOD OF TRANSPORTATION OF CRABS Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC B65D85/00 A01K61/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: prior to transportation the crab is brought into the state of anabiosis, and in this state is transported in sealed thermally insulated container, maintaining the temperature mode excluding output of the crab from the state of anabiosis. The crabs are placed in a container with their legs pressured to their bodies, at least in two layers. The lower layer is placed on the pad of porous elastic material wetted by sea water, after which each crab is closed on the top and crimped with the coating of a similar material, separating from each other. The cold source is used as small-sized cold accumulators, which are poured into the volume of the container not occupied by the crabs and the coating. After filling the container its joints are sealed. The containers, preferably not one by one, are hermetically packaged in a flexible thermally insulated material termofol, and then transported to the consumer.

EFFECT: invention provides transportation of compactly packed live crabs.
