Definitions

  • the invention relates to a frigorific sales furniture comprising a lower refrigerating or freezing chest, an upper refrigerating or freezing chest and a refrigerating or freezing cabinet.
  • a conventional frigorific sales furniture comprises a freezer having a goods access portion in its upper side and a freezing cabinet disposed above the freezer and having a goods access portion in its front.
  • a customer has to bend down deeply into the freezer, especially when the goods filling height in the freezer is low and there are not many goods to be sold left. Therefore such frigorific sales furnitures are ergonomically disadvantageous, and short and elderly people cannot grasp goods at the bottom of the freezer. Furthermore, there are no goods accessible at middle height of the frigorific sales furniture, especially when the goods filling height in the freezer is low.
  • EP 0 439 815 A1 shows a refrigerated vending cabinet which has a lower, chest-type merchandise space and, above it, an upper cabinet-type merchandise space.
  • Exemplary embodiments of the invention include a frigorific sales furniture comprising a lower refrigerating or freezing chest, an upper refrigerating or freezing chest being disposed above the lower refrigerating or freezing chest and having substantially the same shape and size as the lower refrigerating or freezing chest, and a refrigerating or freezing cabinet disposed at a higher level than the upper refrigerating or freezing chest.
  • Both of the refrigerating or freezing chests comprise a goods access portion in their upper side
  • the refrigerating or freezing cabinet comprises a goods access portion in its front.
  • the upper refrigerating or freezing chest has a set back position in relation to the lower refrigerating or freezing chest
  • the front of the refrigerating or freezing cabinet has a set back position in relation to the front of the upper refrigerating or freezing chest.
  • finorific is to be understood as an umbrella term comprising cooling/refrigerating temperatures above zero degrees Celsius and/or freezing/deep-freezing temperatures below zero degrees Celsius.
  • Figure 1 shows a first frigorific sales furniture 2 comprising, from bottom to top, a lower freezing chest 4, an upper freezing chest 20, and a first freezing cabinet 36.
  • the lower and the upper freezing chests 4 and 20 have approximately the same shape and size. They comprise a respective bottom 6, 22, the front portion of which extends upwardly from back to front including an angle of approximately 30° with respect to a horizontal plane, a respective vertical rear side 10, 26, a respective transparent front side 8, 24 extending backwardly from top to bottom including an angle of approximately 15° with respect to a vertical plane, and a respective upper side having a sliding glass door 14, 30 being slanted downwardly from rear to front including an angle of approximately 10° with respect to a horizontal plane, and a rear portion 12, 28 being slanted downwardly from front to back including an angle of approximately 20° with respect to a horizontal plane.
  • respective cages 19, 35 for receiving and carrying goods to be sold.
  • respective evaporators 16, 32 and respective fans 18, 34 of a vapor compression cycle are arranged in the rear portion of the interiors of the freezing chests 4 and 20, there are arranged respective evaporators 16, 32 and respective fans 18, 34 of a vapor compression cycle.
  • the cages 19 and 35 are spaced apart from the respective bottom 6, 22 and the respective transparent front side 8, 24.
  • the air circulation in the interiors of the freezing chests 4, 20 is illustrated in Figure 1 by means of arrows.
  • the first freezing cabinet 36 comprises a vertical rear wall 42, a horizontal upper side 44, and a bottom 38, the rear portion of which is horizontal and the front portion of which extends upwardly from back to front including an angle of approximately 30° with respect to a horizontal plane.
  • the first freezing cabinet 36 comprises a pivotable glass door 40 having a handle providing access to its interior.
  • the interior of the first freezing cabinet 36 there are arranged three decks 46 approximately equidistantly over the height of the pivotable glass door 40.
  • Below the lowest deck 46 there are disposed an evaporator 48 and a fan 50 of a vapor compression cycle.
  • the evaporator 48 is arranged above the vertical portion of the bottom 38 and the fan 50 is arranged adjacent thereto and before it.
  • a vertical intermediate wall 45 and a horizontal intermediate ceiling 47 spaced apart from the rear wall 42 and the upper side 44, respectively.
  • a vertical intermediate wall 45 and a horizontal intermediate ceiling 47 spaced apart from the rear wall 42 and the upper side 44, respectively.
  • Cooling air circulates through the gap between the intermediate wall 45 and the rear wall 42, through the gap between the intermediate ceiling 47 and the upper side 44 and through the openings in the intermediate ceiling 47 and the lower deck 46, and thus sufficient air circulation for cooling the whole interior of the first freezing cabinet 36 is provided.
  • the lower freezing chest 4 is positioned on a base and extends partly into the sales room.
  • the upper freezing chest 20 is disposed above the lower freezing chest 4 in a setback position in regard to the lower freezing chest 4 such that the front portion of the bottom 22 rests on the rear portion 12 of the upper side of the lower freezing chest 4.

  • a machinery space 52 is formed behind the freezing chests 4 and 20, the larger portion of which is situated behind the lower freezing chest 4.
  • a compressor, a condenser, a throttle valve, and electrical equipment of the vapor compression cycle can be disposed (not shown).
  • FIG 2 shows a second frigorific sales furniture 54 comprising, from bottom to top, the lower freezing chest 4 and the upper freezing chest 20, as described with reference to Figure 1 , as well as a second freezing cabinet 56.
  • an evaporator 58 and a fan 60 are disposed differently than the evaporator 48 and the fan 50 of the first freezing cabinet 36 of Figure 1 .
  • the evaporator 58 is placed in an upper corner region opposite to the goods acces portion, and the fan 60 is placed on the bottom 38, in particular on the horizontal portion thereof.
  • the remaining elements of the second freezing cabinet 56 correspond to those of the first freezing cabinet 36 of Figure 1 and are designated with the same reference numerals.
  • Figure 3 shows a third frigorific sales furniture 62 comprising, from bottom to top, a lower freezing chest 64, an upper freezing chest 72, and the first freezing cabinet 36, that has already been described with reference to Figure 1 .
  • the shape of the reference chests 64 and 72 substantially corresponds to the shape of the freezing chests 4 and 20, wherein the rear portions 68 and 76 of the upper side thereof are mainly horizontal and the rear walls 66, 74 extend further upwardly. Thereby a larger upper corner extending farther to the back and thus a larger interior are obtained. In said upper corner regions, a respective evaporator 70, 78 is positioned. In the interiors of the freezing chests 64 and 72 there is also inserted a respective cage 71, 79 which is, however, not spaced apart from the bottom 6, 22 of the freezing chests 64, 72.
  • the refrigeration is effected via silent refrigeration. Therefore small tubes (not shown) are arranged in at least one of the respective bottoms 6, 22, the respective rear walls 66, 74 and the respective rear portions 68 and 76 of the upper sides.
  • the machinery space 80 substantially corresponds to the machinery space 52, wherein due to the horizontal formation of the rear portions 68 and 76 and due to the greater height of the rear walls 66 and 74 there is no intermediate space between the upper side rear portions 68, 76 and the bottoms 22 and 38.
  • the bottom 22 of the upper freezing chest 72 rests on the rear portion 68 of the upper side of the lower freezing chest 64, and thus on a greater surface that is partly horizontal. The same holds for the bottom 38 of the first freezing cabinet 36 and the rear portion 76 of the upper side of the upper freezing chest 72.
  • the remaining elements of the freezing chests 64, 72 correspond to those of the freezing chests 4, 20 of Figures 1 and 2 and are designated with the same reference numerals.
  • Figure 4 shows a cross sectional view of a fourth frigorific sales furniture 82.
  • the fourth frigorific sales furniture 82 corresponds to the second frigorific sales furniture 54 with the exception that its third freezing cabinet 84 comprises an evaporator 86 on the vertical portion of the bottom 38 and a fan 88 arranged behind the evaporator 86 on the bottom 38 in a rear corner portion.
  • a sucking air flow is effected in the third freezing cabinet 84, since the fan 88 sucks air sinking down to the bottom 38 in the front of the third freezing cabinet 84 through the evaporator 86.
  • Figure 5 shows a cross sectional view of a fifth frigorific sales furniture 90.
  • the fifth frigorific sales furniture 90 corresponds to the second frigorific sales furniture 54 with the exception that its fourth freezing cabinet 92 comprises an evaporator 94 above the vertical portion of the bottom 38 and a fan 88 arranged on the bottom 38 before the evaporator 86.
  • a pressing air flow is effected in the fourth freezing cabinet 92, since the fan 94 sucks air sinking down to the bottom 38 in the front of the third freezing cabinet 92 and presses it through the evaporator 94.
  • Figure 6 shows a cross sectional view of a sixth frigorific sales furniture 98.
  • the sixth frigorific sales furniture 98 corresponds to the second frigorific sales furniture 54 with the exception that its fifth freezing cabinet 100 comprises an evaporator 102 above the vertical portion of the bottom 38 and a fan 104 arranged in an upper rear corner of the fifth freezing cabinet 100.
  • a sucking air flow is effected in the fifth freezing cabinet 100, since the fan 104 sucks air from the outlet of the evaporator 102 and directs it to the front of the fifth freezing cabinet 100, where it sinks down to the bottom 38, where it enters the fifth freezing cabinet 100 again.
  • All the freezing chests 4, 20; 64, 72 and all the freezing cabinets 36, 56, 84, 92, 100 comprise side walls (not shown in the Figures).
  • the production costs for the frigorific sales furniture 2, 54, 62, 84, 90 and 98 according to the invention can be reduced since the two freezing chests 4, 20 and 64, 72 have approximately the same shape and size and can therefore be produced in the same production line.
  • the described frigorific sales furnitures comprise refrigerating chests instead of freezing chests, the refrigerating chests working at cooling/refrigerating temperatures above 0°C.
  • the described frigorific sales furnitures comprise a combination of freezing and refrigerating chests.
  • the chests 4, 20 or 64, 72 can be freezing chests, whereas the cabinets 36, 56, 84, 92 and 100 can be refrigerating cabinets working at a cooling/refrigerating temperature above 0°C.
