Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cooling device wherein the arrangement of the components in the machine room is improved.
  • the thermal energy drawn from the cooling cabinet is discharged by means of forced convection provided by the air blown by a fan onto the condenser.
  • a defrost process is performed to remove the frost formed on the refrigeration system.
  • the water thawed during the defrost process is collected in a receptacle to be evaporated by heat. In order to perform evaporation, a sufficient amount of heat must be transferred to the receptacle.
  • the fan and the condenser are fixed to the base of the machine room so as to be close to each other, and the receptacle is disposed close to the components of the refrigerant line which heats up so as to benefit from the waste heat.
  • a problem encountered in the state of the art embodiments is that the evaporation rate remains low as a result of failing to efficiently transfer the waste heat of the components of the refrigerant line to the receptacle.
  • Another problem is that the arrangement of the components of the refrigerant line and the receptacle is limited due to the volume of the machine room.
  • a cooling device wherein the structural relation between the heat exchanger and the defrost water collection receptacle is improved.
  • DE102017213972A1 is disclosing a cooling apparatus comprising a related defrost water collection receptacle.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of a cooling device wherein the amount of heat transferred to the receptacle is increased.
  • the cooling device realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof, comprises an air duct which is in the form of a tunnel provided on a receptacle wherein the defrost water fills, and which receives the condenser and the fan.
  • the waste heat is efficiently used to evaporate the defrost water and ease of arrangement is provided.
  • the air duct and the receptacle are separated from each other by means of a curved wall which protrudes into the receptacle.
  • the volume of the receptacle wherein the water is collected surrounds the air duct and the amount of heat transferred to the water in the receptacle is increased.
  • the air duct has a structure which at least partially narrows down in the flow direction of the air.
  • the air flow in the air duct is regulated so as to increase the amount of heat transferred to the receptacle.
  • At least one step against which the condenser bears at the sides thereof is provided on the inner side of the air duct.
  • the step determines the position of the condenser in the air duct and supports the condenser.
  • a plurality of steps each having a different width are provided on the inner side of the air duct.
  • the air duct is made suitable for the placement of condensers in different sizes depending on the capacity of the cooling device.
  • the fan is attached to the air duct by means of a movable connection which allows the adjustment of the distance between the condenser and the fan.
  • the position of the fan is adjusted depending on the position of the condenser placed into the body, and the air flow delivered onto the condenser can be adjusted.
  • the cooling device (1) comprises at least one cabinet (2) wherein the foodstuffs to be cooled are placed; a compressor (3) which compresses a refrigerant fluid; at least one evaporator (4) which provides the heat transfer between the refrigerant fluid and the cabinet (2) which is cooled; a condenser (5) which condenses the refrigerant fluid; a fan (6) which blows air onto the condenser (5) so as to provide forced thermal convection; and a receptacle (7) wherein the defrost water coming from the evaporator (4) is collected so as to be evaporated.
  • the receptacle (7) is disposed into a machine room (11) of the cooling device (1).
  • the defrost water coming from the evaporator (4) fills into the receptacle (7).
  • the cooling device (1) of the present invention comprises an air duct (8) which is in the form of a cut-out provided on the receptacle (7) and wherein the fan (6) and the condenser (5) are placed.
  • the receptacle (7) is in the form of a container with open top.
  • the water coming from the evaporator (4) is collected in the receptacle (7).
  • the air duct (8) is configured in the form of a cut-out extending along the receptacle (7) from one end of the receptacle (7) to the other end thereof.
  • the fan (6) and the condenser (5) are fixed into the air duct (8).
  • the amount of heat transferred is increased, providing an advantage of arrangement.
  • the air duct (8) recesses into the receptacle (7).
  • the air duct (8) is positioned at the lower side of the receptacle (7) and recesses into the receptacle (7) wherein the water is collected.
  • a wall (9) which at least partially surrounds the air duct (8) recesses into the receptacle (7).
  • the wall (9) has a U-shaped cross-section so as to surround the top and the sides of the air duct (8).
  • the part of the air duct (8) after the condenser (5) in the flow direction of the air has a narrowing form.
  • the part of the air duct (8) after the condenser has a conical form which narrows down.
  • the air flow is regulated, and the amount of noise which may be generated during the operation of the fan (6) is decreased.
  • At least one step (10) against which the condenser (5) bears at the sides thereof is provided on the inner wall of the air duct (8).
  • the step (10) is in the form of a protrusion on the inner surface of the air duct (8), which decreases the diameter of the air duct (8).
  • the condenser (5) is placed into the air duct (8) so as to bear against the step (10).
  • the step (10) ensures the easy placement of the condenser (5).
  • a plurality of steps (10) are arranged one after the other.
  • the steps (10) are in the form of protrusions which are arranged one after the other so as to create passages with different widths in the air duct (8) and to decrease the diameter of the air duct (8).
  • each step (10) enables a condenser (5) in different size to be attached into the air duct (8) so as to bear against the step (10).
  • the condensers (5) in different sizes are allowed to be placed into the air duct (8).
  • the fan (6) is movably attached onto the air duct (8) so as to allow the adjustment of the air flow sent onto the condenser (5).
  • the fan (6) is attached to the air duct (8) so as to move forwards/backwards in the air duct (8) so as to enable the distance between the condenser (5) and the fan (6) to be changed or in a pivoting manner so as to enable the angle of the air sent onto the condenser (5) to be changed.
  • the air flow is regulated by adjusting the distance between the fan (6) and the condenser (5) and the angle of the air reaching the condenser (5).
