摘要： A refrigerator appliance including a multi-capacity compressor and a refrigerant circuit with two conduits and pressure reducing devices arranged in parallel between an evaporator and a condenser. Refrigerant can flow through one, both or none of the conduits and pressure reducing devices. The appliance also has a heat exchanger in contact with either one pressure reducing device, or one conduit between the pressure reducing device and the valve system. The appliance also includes a controller for priming the compressor above a nominal capacity for a predetermined or calculated duration at the beginning of an ON-cycle.

摘要： An appliance system including an appliance and a turbo-chilling chamber is provided. The turbo-chilling chamber has a main body portion that typically includes: a rigid distal wall surrounding a foodstuff receiving space that accommodates variously sized foodstuffs (beverage containers); a rigid inner wall having at least one aperture along the length thereof and surrounding the foodstuff when the foodstuff is within the foodstuff receiving space; and a rigid intermediate wall between the rigid inner wall and the rigid distal wall that defines a coolant chamber between the rigid distal wall and the rigid intermediate wall and also defines an air cooling channel between the rigid intermediate wall and the rigid inner wall. A fan moves air through the air cooling channel and the at least one aperture and past the foodstuff. A method of turbo-chilling a foodstuff/beverage container/beverage within the turbo-chilling chamber is also provided.

摘要： An icemaker moisture removal and defrost assembly is provided in a refrigerator. Cooled refrigerant is provided to a refrigerant loop within an icemaker to cool an ice making cavity and a moisture removal portion of the icemaker. Moisture laden air from a refrigerator compartment is directed through airflow channels defined by a plurality of fins extending from the moisture removal portion of the icemaker, whereby moisture condenses on the fins in the form of ice. Dry air exiting the airflow channels is directed across an evaporator and back into the refrigerator compartment. During a defrost event, a heater within the icemaker is used to melt the ice formed on the fins. Alternatively, hot gas from a compressor is used to heat a refrigerant line flowing through the evaporator and/or the icemaker to melt ice formed on the evaporator and/or the icemaker during a defrost event.

摘要翻译： 在冰箱中提供制冰机除湿和除霜组件。 冷却的制冷剂被提供到制冰机内的制冷剂回路以冷却制冰腔和制冰机的除湿部分。 来自冷藏室的充满水分的空气被引导通过由从制冰机的湿气去除部分延伸的多个翅片限定的气流通道，由此湿气以冰的形式在散热片上冷凝。 离开气流通道的干燥空气被引导通过蒸发器并返回到冷藏室。 在除霜事件期间，制冰机内的加热器用于熔化翅片上形成的冰。 或者，来自压缩机的热气体用于加热流经蒸发器和/或制冰机的制冷剂管线，以在除霜事件期间熔化在蒸发器和/或制冰机上形成的冰。

摘要： A moisture removal device for reducing the moisture content of air associated with an appliance including a body of moisture removing material, apparatus for moving air associated with the appliance into contact with the body, a heat sink for the body for the dissipating heat of condensation of moisture condensing on the body from air associated with the appliance, and an apparatus for deforming the body to regenerate the moisture capacity of the moisture removing material. The apparatus for deforming the body can compress, stretch, or twist the body of moisture removing material to mechanically remove liquid from the body. The moisture removal device can be part of a refrigerator, cooker hood, room air conditioner, dehumidifier, dishwasher, clothes dryer and a drying cabinet.

摘要： A refrigerator includes a freezer compartment provided with an automatic icemaker incorporating a mold configured to produce truncated, crescent-shaped ice cubes. With this arrangement, the icemaker produces cubes that are shorter than full, standard crescent-shaped cubes. The reduced mold size advantageously enables the icemaker to take less space in a freezer compartment, without a significant reduction in ice cube volume.
