摘要:
A condensing unit which includes a base plate having first and second oppositely disposed major surfaces. The base plate may include flanges disposed along the outer periphery of the base plate. A compressor mechanism and a condensing coil are mounted to the first major surface which faces a first direction. The flanges may also extend in the first direction. The second major surface may be substantially free of projections and define a bearing surface for the condensing unit. The motor of the compressor may have a main shaft which extends substantially parallel to the first major surface. The compressor may be a rotary compressor. There may be a conduit in fluid communication with the compressor and condensing coil and define together therewith a fluid circuit. Valves rotatably mounted on brackets and in fluid communication with the fluid circuit and operably couplable to an evaporator circuit may also be provided.

Techniques are described for improved line and clarity of sight for a freezer bank having multiple individual freezers. By selective angling of walls of the freezers, individual doors and the products behind those doors for two or more freezers can be more clearly seen with reduced glare. With this arrangement, more freezer doors can be as clearly seen as typical for product doors at an end of a row or an end of an aisle thereby improving the overall merchantability of a store's freezer section. Applications to a warehousing store environment are described in detail.
摘要:
A refrigerator shelf having a plate surrounded by a frame. A guide is connected to the frame for slidable guiding of a closure member. The closure member is formed from an assembly of hinged-together bar elements which are able to pass between an extended position in which the closure member closes a chamber formed between the shelf and an underlying shelf, and a retracted position into the guide.

Device to distribute air for glass-fronted cabinets, counters, or in general containers which are refrigerated, heated or otherwise climatically conditioned, said containers (10) comprising a compartment (15) defining a volume containing the foodstuffs to be conserved, and possibly one or more overlying levels to contain the products facing the customer's side, said containers (10) also comprising a technical compartment (16) inside which the ventilation unit (22) and the thermal conditioning unit (30) are housed, said containers (10) comprising at least a transparent front element (20) facing the customer's side, the device comprising a conveyor element (25) transparent and substantially invisible arranged inside the compartment (15) and able to define, together with said transparent front element (20), an air-conveyor channel (26) which affects at least part of said transparent front element (20).
摘要:
A point-of-sale display for selling containers of chilled food items includes a quadrilateral vessel having a bottom and end and side walls, the walls containing thermally insulating material. At least seven removable panels each of which contains a material that is liquid at room temperature and has a freezing point of about 32 degrees Fahrenheit or colder are configured to fit together to form vertical walls about at least one interior chamber in the vessel and sized to be placed into the vessel with two panels on opposed vessel ends, two panels each on opposed vessel sides and one panel extending between the vessel sides spaced from each vessel end, the panel extending between the vessel sides extending fully between the vessel sides and the panels on each vessel side together not extending fully along the side. The panels can be placed in a freezer below the freezing point of the liquid until the liquid freezes and then placed in the vessel to form an interior chamber in the vessel. Containers of food items to be sold may be loaded into the interior chamber and kept cold by their proximity to the panels.
摘要:
An air cooling and control system for a refrigerated food merchandiser having an insulated cabinet with a product area having adjacent product zones, plural modular evaporator coil sections of substantially equal heat exchange potential and being of predetermined length and arranged in horizontal, spaced, end-to-end predetermined disposition and separate air moving means associated with each coil section and a corresponding product zone for circulating separate air flows through the coil sections and to the product area for cooling. The system further includes a first refrigerant metering valve for controlling liquid refrigerant flow on the high side of the evaporator sections, and a second refrigerant metering valve for controlling suction pressure and refrigerant vapor flow on the low side of the evaporator sections. An electronic control senses exit air temperatures downstream of the evaporator sections and operates the second metering valve in response thereto. In another aspect, a method of operating an electronic evaporator pressure regulating (EEPR) valve during the refrigeration and defrost modes of the controlled evaporator and in response to sensed air temperatures .

摘要:
A refrigerated merchandiser (12) includes a display case (30) defining a product display region having an open-front isolated from the ambient air of the store by means of a downwardly directed inner air curtain (55) of relatively cold refrigerated air. The amount of airflow forming the air curtain is selectively increased in response to a signal from a controller (80) whenever a sensor (70) detects a disturbance in the integrity of the air curtain or from movement in front of the display case.
摘要:
A refrigerated merchandizer includes a display case defining a product display region having an open-front isolated from the ambient air of the store by means of a downwardly directed inner air curtain of relatively cold refrigerated air and a downwardly directed outer air curtain of relatively warmer air. The outer curtain of relatively warmer air is directed downwardly and outwardly away from the inner air curtain of relatively cold air at a divergent angle with respect to the inner air curtain.

A cooler with an insulated shell and a product loading system. The insulated shell has an access portion and a loading portion. The product loading system has a gravity-feed loading element and a dispensing cup.
摘要:
An improved ice cream dipping cabinet which readily permits visualization of frozen food product stored therein. The dipping cabinet has an inner box that is at least partially surrounded by an outer box. Cold, refrigerating air is circulated between the inner and outer boxes, cooling the inner box walls and the food product stored therein. The inner and outer boxes have an upper, transparent portion to permit visualization of food products stored within the inner box. The inner box has a door that is hermetically sealed to a top wall thereof to prevent moisture migration from the inner box. The outer box has an open top to permit access to the inner box door.
