Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an improved refrigerated exhibitor, such as those used in particular for exhibiting beverages or the like.
  • the art further provides for refrigerated exhibitors with sliding doors connected to a mechanical closing system comprising a vertically sliding counterweight in a guide which is typically provided along exhibitor opening risers, such counterweight being suitably connected and transmitted to the door so that, when the door is opened, the counterweight rises, while, when the open sliding door is free from constraints, the fall movement of the counterweight due to gravity makes it close;
  • a mechanical closing system comprising a vertically sliding counterweight in a guide which is typically provided along exhibitor opening risers, such counterweight being suitably connected and transmitted to the door so that, when the door is opened, the counterweight rises, while, when the open sliding door is free from constraints, the fall movement of the counterweight due to gravity makes it close;
  • such mechanical system compels the user who wishes to take foodstuff from inside the exhibitor, to take care, during such operation, to impair the door closure, for example with his hand, arm or shoulder, the door otherwise being closed by itself due to the counterweight fall, thereby being uncomfortable and scarcely useful.
  • a counterweight-type mechanical system is typically used only in refrigerated exhibitors with linearly sliding doors, due to the easiness with which it is possible to arrange the transmission cable along the rectilinar opening lintel; in fact, no refrigerated exhibitors are known with arc-shaped sliding doors equipped with a mechanical closing system as previously described.
  • Patent applications JP 2005 009698 A and GB 1 287 916 A disclose refrigerator exhibitors according to the above prior art and the preamble of Claim 1.
  • object of the present invention is solving the above prior art problems, by providing an improved refrigerated exhibitor comprising at least one door assembly with arc-shaped sliding door equipped with a mechanical automatic closing system.
  • Another object of the present invention is providing an improved refrigerated exhibitor equipped with a mechanical automatic closing system and a sliding door blocking device.
  • an object of the present invention is providing an improved refrigerated exhibitor comprising at least one arc-shaped sliding door equipped with an improved thermal sealing member.
  • the improved refrigerated exhibitor 1 has a configuration having a substantially circular or partially arc-shaped plan at least in its front part; obviously, the improved refrigerated exhibitor 1 comprises a refrigerating cell 5 contained in a support structure substantially composed of arc-shaped lateral walls 7 defining, above and below the refrigerating cell 5, room 9 for housing the refrigerating system components which, since they are known, will not be described below.
  • the support structure is then covered by arc-shaped external covering panels 3 and an upper cover 4.
  • the refrigerating cell 5 interior containing a plurality of shelves 6 aimed to support the exposed goods, is accessible through a door assembly 10 comprising an arc-shaped sliding door 11, whose radius of curvature is substantially complying with the one of arc-shaped side walls 7, equipped with a mechanical automatic closing system and a blocking device.
  • the door assembly 10 comprises:
  • a vertical rib 28 is provided, placed under the lower frame section 12b, which by sliding almost in contact with or skimming the arc-shaped rail 17, very highly reduces thermal exchanges and air passage between outside and inside the cell 5, consequently increasing the global thermal efficiency of the improved refrigerated exhibitor 1 according to the present invention.
  • the upper frame section 12a is equipped with the vertical rib 28.
  • the upper frame section 12a and possibly the upper 12b and lateral 12c, 12d frame sections are equipped with an internal net-shaped or honeycomb-shaped structure for structural reinforcement.
  • the door assembly 10 members like the sections composing the sliding door 11 frame, the upper 15 and lower 16 guides, the small supporting blocks 19 and the support structure of the improved refrigerated exhibitor 1 can be easily manufactured in plastic material through molding, injection or extrusion, thereby resulting in an inexpensive realisation and an easy assembling, though they keep a high use practicality and a high operating efficiency.
