Definitions

  • the invention relates to installations for diffusing a mist of nebulized liquid droplets onto products.

  • the installation includes diffusers that project a mist of micro-droplets of water above the products, which preserves their freshness, improves their appearance and promotes their sale.
  • the installation includes a mast fed with fog and carrying a cap at the top.
  • the plug has internal conduits coinciding with the holes of the mast to allow the diffusion of fog outside. If we turn the cap, we remove this coincidence so that the broadcast is interrupted.
  • the cap also includes an internal baffle that changes the orientation of the fog so that it emerges from the mast with correct speed and direction.
  • An object of the invention is to regulate the diffusion of the fog on the products in a more flexible way and to reduce the cost of the installation.
  • a fog diffusion head for a nebulization installation which comprises:
  • At least one shutter capable of closing the orifice
  • a deflector connected to the wall independently of the shutter and having opposite the mouth a main face having at least a portion oriented in a direction other than the direction of the mouth, a larger part of the orifice or at least one of the orifices extending opposite the deflector.
  • the fog jet leaves the head with an appropriate direction and speed.
  • the deflector reduces turbulence and recirculation inside the head and therefore the pressure losses and water losses. This largely preserves the speed of the mist passing through the head. In this way, the fog comes out with a relatively high speed, which allows the droplets to reach products. distant from the head.
  • the deflector being made separately from or shutters, it can easily adapt the baffle, or the orifices and the shutter or shutters, for example depending on the particularities of the installation.

  • the head is devoid of means for closing the mouth of supply of the head in fog.
  • it comprises at least one fastening element extending right through the deflector along a main axis of the latter. In another embodiment, it comprises at least one fastening element extending in a blind housing of the baffle.
  • the deflector has a lower end extending above the mouth.
  • the shutter or at least one of the shutters is movably mounted relative to the orifice being guided between the baffle and a cover of the head.
  • the orifices are at least two in number and each able to put the mouth in communication with the outside of the head, the shutters being at least two in number and able to close the respective orifices, each shutter being suitable closing one of the orifices, the shutters being movably mounted relative to the wall independently of one another.
  • each of the orifices independently of the other.
  • the choice of the number of open orifices makes it possible to regulate the quantity of fog diffused on the products.
  • the possibility of opening one orifice rather than another makes it possible to direct the diffusion of the mist in the desired direction, for example towards certain products and not towards others.
  • This setting can be easily changed at any time by closing some of the holes and opening others.
  • the head therefore offers great flexibility for adjusting the intensity and orientation of the fog or jets.
  • the deflector comprises a plastic material, for example polytetrafluoroethylene.
  • a fog diffusion head is also provided for a nebulization installation, which comprises:

  • This is a piece of furniture forming in this case a table. In this example, this piece of furniture is used in a place of sale of products.
  • the products here are fresh products consisting of vegetables 4, 6.
  • the invention is also used for other fresh food products such as fruit, meat or fish. It is also applicable to food products such as cheese and more generally to any product sensitive to drying, for example flowers.

In the present example, the two diffusers are separated from each other by a distance of one meter. It is advantageous that the orifices are located at height, for example at about 0.3 m from the top of the products to be moistened, ie about 0.5 m from the bottom of the display, but this depends on the proper height of the products. It is advantageous in this respect that the diffusers are adjustable in height.

  • Figure 3 shows the furniture in operation, the products have been removed to better visualize the diffusion of fog. All the diffusers simultaneously diffuse jets of fogs 37, 39 through their orifices, above the wall 12 and the products. The diffusers 16 diffuse their jets 37 through their orifices 24. The fog is produced all around the diffuser 16 downwards towards the wall 12 and the products 4, 6.

  • the head has a general shape with symmetry of revolution around the axis 19 of the mast. It comprises a body 21 formed in this case by a bowl whose wall has a section in a radial plane to the axis 19 in an arcuate shape whose center of curvature is inside the bowl.
  • the bowl has a flared and curved shape, its diameter widening from the base of the bowl to its upper edge. This shape makes it possible to orient the orifices 24 downwards.
  • the bowl 21 has at its lower end a rim 23 through which it is threaded onto the upper end of the mast with the head coaxial with the mast. This rim delimits a lower entry mouth into the fog head from the mast.

In this example, they are identical to each other and located at the same height, being regularly distributed around the vertical axis of symmetry of the diffuser.

This is the shutter position occupied by the shutter when it abuts against one of the circumferential ends of the aperture 32. Conversely, when it abuts against the other end of the aperture opening, the cap leaves the hole completely free. The shutter is then in the open position.

  • the presence of the deflector can have different effects that can accumulate. It makes it possible to raise the fog jet by reducing its inclination with respect to the horizontal direction, which causes an increase in its range, which is the case for the three embodiments of the invention. It can increase the fog outlet velocity of the head, as is the case in Figures 23 and 24.
  • each orifice gives rise to two separate fog jets differing in different inclinations relative to the horizontal direction. This can be useful for refreshing products arranged respectively at short and long distances from the diffuser.
