摘要: A beverage dispenser includes an outer housing having a water bath tank therein and a refrigeration retaining component area therein positioned directly adjacent and next to the water bath tank. A refrigeration chassis provides for retention and carrying of a refrigeration system including a compressor, a condenser and powered cooling fan and an evaporator. The chassis and refrigeration components form a U-shape wherein one "leg" thereof consists of a rectangular sheet metal frame for retaining the compressor and condenser and the other leg consists of the evaporator. The bridge or end portion of the U-shape consists of a horizontal top plate portion of the chassis and the fluid connection between the evaporator and the condenser. The evaporator is suspended from the horizontal top plate. The U-shape of the chassis and refrigeration components facilitates a method of manufacture. In particular, a carbonator, syrup cooling coils and a water cooling coil are first positioned in the water bath tank at an end thereof adjacent the end of the housing on which a plurality of beverage dispensing valves are secured. The assembled chassis with refrigeration components secured thereto is then lifted and lowered into the dispenser housing wherein the evaporator is placed into the water bath tank along an end thereof opposite from the carbonator and cooling coils, and where the compressor and condenser are placed into the refrigeration component retaining area.
