MUMBAI, India, Aug. 10 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411102748 A) filed by Amity International School on December 24, 2024, for Solar-Powered Tiffin System With Integrated Heating And Cooling Using Peltier Module.
Inventors include Pranjal Kankan; and Suniti Gupta.
The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a solar-powered tiffin system incorporating an integrated thermoelectric heating and cooling mechanism using a Peltier module. The system is designed to maintain food at a desired temperature during transportation without reliance on conventional grid electricity. A solar panel is configured to capture solar energy and supply electrical power to the Peltier module, while a rechargeable 12V battery stores excess energy to ensure uninterrupted operation during low sunlight or nighttime conditions. The Peltier module operates in dual modes, wherein reversal of current direction enables selective heating or cooling of food contents. The system further includes a temperature display module for real-time monitoring of internal temperature and a thermally insulated housing to enhance energy efficiency. The invention provides a portable, cost-effective, and eco-friendly solution for food temperature management, particularly suitable for urban commuters, outdoor activities, and rural areas with limited access to electrical infrastructure.
