Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigerated display chest comprising a display platform supporting the goods to be refrigerated and displayed, a cooler and means for venting an air flow.
  • the cooler may be an evaporator.
  • Refrigerated display chests comprise means for cooling air and means for venting an air flow.
  • the cooled air flow is directed into the display area where the goods to be refrigerated are supported by a display platform.
  • the space above the display platform supporting the goods to be refrigerated is called the display area.
  • Two operational principles are known for directing the flow of the cooling air. According to the first principle, an inlet for cooled air into the display area is provided at one side of the refrigerated display chest and an outlet is provided at the opposite side. According to the second principle, an inlet for cooled air into the display area is provided in the middle of the refrigerated display chest and outlets are provided at two sides located opposite to each other. Both principles have in common that the flow direction of the cooled air remains the same for the whole operation time of the refrigerated display case, i. e. as long as goods are refrigerated.
  • the present invention is provoked by the cognition that the temperature distribution in such a refrigerated display chest is to a certain extent inhomogeneous, because of the cooling air is becoming warmer on its way from the inlet to the outlet.
  • the average difference in the temperature of goods between the coldest area at the air inlet side and the warmest area at the air outlet side in the display area is about 6 °K.
  • US 4 723 414 A there is disclosed a low-temperature showcase wherein evaporators are installed in the vent ports located at both sides of a storage chamber, respectively associated therewith, and a blast fan which can rotate reversibly is installed in the air passage, and thereby the two evaporators are put in cooling operation alternatively.
  • a cooling operation by one of the evaporators is performed alternately every time by a timer, that is, every two hours. Then, for example, when one evaporator is put in cooling operation, the other evaporator is defrosted by a corresponding electric heater.
  • EP 0 862 878 A1 discloses a refrigerator display cabinet for furnishing refrigerated goods has a vertical duct, which is surrounded by a magazine which is filled with the goods from above, and at its lower part is surrounded by a bottom, on which the goods rest and which at its periphery has an opening for taking the goods out.
  • a fan is arranged to bring air which is refrigerated by a cooling element to flow upwards through the duct and then between goods located in the upper part of the magazine, from where the air flows downwards between goods located in the lower part of the magazine and out through holes in the bottom and then back to the fan.
  • Means are arranged to reverse the circulation direction of the air from time to time so that the air periodically will flow in opposite direction through the display cabinet.
  • the invention provides a refrigerated display chest according to claim 1.
  • At least one of the means for cooling and the means for venting an air flow are located underneath the display platform. This is especially useful to create a balanced flow of the cooled air along the sides of the refrigerated display case.
  • the whole length and width of the refrigerated display chest can be used as display area without any cooling means obstructing.
  • the means for venting comprise at least two fans being operated alternately, with the blowing direction of one of the fans being opposite to the blowing direction of the other one of the fans.
  • the cooling means or cooler comprises at least two cooling elements.
  • evaporators are used as cooling elements, e.g. evaporators, which may have fins the air to be cooled flows through.
  • cooling elements In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention there are provided two cooling elements, one cooling element is arranged on one side and the other cooling element is arranged on the other side of the means for venting.
  • This arrangement is especially useful to make sure there is no snow build up at the outlet of the cooling air, where the cooling air leaves the display area.
  • devices like air baffles or air flow distributors are used at the blowing side of the fan to improve the distribution of the cooled air.
  • the same devices are not useful at the suction side of the fan where the cooling air is sucked in again after having cooled the displayed goods, because of the possibility of the aforementioned build up of snow which could occur due to the cooling air being almost saturated with moisture at this point.
  • both sides have to be able to function as blowing side and as suction side.
  • a cooling element is provided at each side of the means for venting.
  • Each cooling element for example comprises an evaporator with fins suitable to be located at either side. The fins improve the distribution of the cooled air at the blowing side, but do not cause any build up of snow at the suction side.
  • Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a refrigerated display chest 1 not according to the invention, comprising a display platform 2 supporting the goods to be refrigerated, cooling means (3a, 3b) and means for venting (4) an air flow which is a fan 4 in the embodiment shown in the Figure.
  • the cooling means are embodied as two cooling elements 3a, 3b each being located at a different side of the fan 4.
  • the means for venting (4) are designed to be able to change the air flow direction during operation of the refrigerated display chest 1.
  • the fan 4 changes its direction of rotation every few minutes, for example. This means that the blowing side and the suction side alternate. With the air flow direction alternating every few minutes a quite homogeneous temperature distribution over the display area is achieved.
  • Fig. 1 one air flow direction is indicated by black arrows, the other air flow direction is indicated by white arrows.
  • Fig. 2 shows the refrigerated display chest of the invention having venting means in the form of two fans 4b each arranged in a different air flow channel 10a and 10b, respectively.
  • each of the fans 4a and 4b is associated one cooler 3a and 3b, respectively, arranged in the same channel as the associated fan 4a and 4b, respectively.
  • the fans 4a and 4b are operated alternately so that only one of the fans 4a and 4b is operated at a time.
  • the fans 4a and 4b have different blowing directions so that there result alternating air flows through channel 10a and channel 10b resulting in alternating air flow direction above the display platform 2.
  • Fig. 3 shows a second embodiment of a refrigerated display chest not according to the invention having a single cooler 3 and at least one fan 4.
  • the fan or fans 4 is/are operated with alternating blowing direction.
