Secured delivery container

1. A secure delivery container, comprising:

a body sized to fit in an automobile trunk or passenger seat and having a chamber configured to receive one or more items for delivery to an end recipient;

a door or cover operable to open or close the chamber;

a heat transfer system comprising

one or more heat transfer elements having a surface in thermal communication with one or more surfaces of the body that define the chamber and configured to heat or cool said one or more surfaces to heat or cool the delivery items in the chamber, and

circuitry configured to control the operation of the one or more heat transfer elements to heat or cool the delivery items during transit of the container;

a transceiver configured to wirelessly receive information and communicate said information to the circuitry, the transceiver configured to wirelessly transmit operational information from the one or more heat transfer elements or circuitry; and

one or more partition walls configured to partition the chamber into a plurality of separate thermally isolated subchambers, at least one of the subchambers being in thermal communication with at least one of the one or more heat transfer elements, the one or more partition walls being movable within the chamber between opposite walls of the chamber without being removed from the chamber to adjust the respective sizes of the plurality of separate thermally isolated subchambers.

2. The delivery container of claim 1 , further comprising one or more batteries configured to deliver power to one or both of the circuitry and one or more heat transfer elements.

3. The delivery container of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the one or more heat transfer elements is disposed in the one or more partition walls.

4. The delivery container of claim 1 , wherein the one or more heat transfer elements are one or more heating elements.

5. The delivery container of claim 1 , further comprising a GPS sensor configured to track the location of the container.

6. The delivery container of claim 1 , wherein the door or cover is configured to lock to close the chamber once the delivery items are placed in the chamber, and wherein the door or cover is configured to be unlocked by the end recipient at the point of delivery.

7. The delivery container of claim 6 , wherein the door or cover is configured to receive a signal wirelessly from a mobile electronic device to unlock the door or cover and allow access to the delivery items.

8. The delivery container of claim 1 , further comprising an electrical connector configured to allow power delivery to the container from an automobile power connector.

9. The delivery container of claim 1 , wherein one of the subchambers is configured to be heated by at least one of the one or more heat transfer elements and another of the subchambers is configured to be cooled by at least one of the one or more heat transfer elements.

10. The delivery container of claim 9 , wherein the subchamber that is heated is configured to receive heated foodstuff and the subchamber that is cooled is configured to receive cooled foodstuff.

11. The delivery container of claim 1 , further comprising one or more sensors configured to sense a parameter in the chamber and to communicate the sensed information to the circuitry, the circuitry configured to control the operation of the one or more heat transfer elements based at least in part on the sensed information.

12. The delivery container of claim 11 , wherein the one or more sensors are chosen from a group consisting of a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, and a chemical sensor.
