Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a frozen showcase, and more specifically, to a frozen showcase that allows easy selection and removal of foods to be frozen stored in the case.

In the case of conventional frozen showcases In small frozen showcases for selling frozen foods, especially frozen confectionery such as ice cream, frozen foods are generally put in and taken out by opening the sliding door at the top and stacking them in the freezer. Frozen foods that are stored or neatly stacked in a freezer are taken out in order from the top.

However, if popular frozen foods and less popular products are stored together, the balance of frozen foods in the freezer becomes unbalanced, and the frozen foods become confused inside, making it difficult to freeze the desired frozen foods. If it becomes difficult to take out the food and it takes time to take out the food, and if the opening area of the sliding door is large compared to the space to be frozen and it takes time to take out the frozen food as mentioned above, the refrigeration efficiency will drop significantly. At the same time, there was a drawback that a large amount of frost formed inside the freezer.

This invention aims to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and its characteristics are that multiple openings are arranged in parallel on the front or side of the freezer case, and the size is large enough to block each of these openings. In addition to providing front doors with handles that can be opened and closed, breathable trays are provided in the case corresponding to each of these front doors, and frozen foods are placed in each of these trays. It provides a frozen showcase with special features.

An embodiment of this invention shown in the drawings will be described in detail below.

As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the refrigerating showcase of this invention is composed of a compressor 3, a condenser 4, an evaporator 5, a cold air delivery fan 6, a cold air duct 7, etc. necessary for the refrigerating showcase. A sample display shelf 1A for displaying samples of frozen foods stored in the freezer is attached to the top surface of a freezer showcase body 1 containing a built-in machine 2.

Further, a plurality of openings 8 are provided on the front surface of the case body, and a front door 9 with a handle 9A is pivotally connected to the front side of each opening so that it can be opened and closed by a hinge 9B.

Furthermore, support frames 10 are provided at the lower sides and at the rear of each opening 8 for trays containing frozen foods to be fixed in the openings.

FIG. 3 shows a tray 11 for storing frozen foods, and this tray 11 is constructed by extending a mesh member 13 to a framework member 12 except for the lower and front surfaces, and this tray 11 is placed inside the case body 1. 1 through the support frame 10 as shown in FIG.

The contents are displayed on the front door 9 so that the contents can be clearly identified without having to pull out the tray from the freezer showcase body 1 and look at it.

The refrigerating showcase of this invention has the above-mentioned configuration, and examples of use of this refrigerating showcase will be described below.

First, put samples (imitation products) 14 of frozen foods to be sold in this frozen showcase into the sample display shelf 1A, and put the names of the frozen foods in the trays (for example, vanilla ice cream) into the front door 9 corresponding to each tray. etc.) can be written directly or displayed using a changeable display means such as a label insert, and the frozen food according to this display can be placed on tray 1.
1 and operate refrigerator 2.

As shown in FIG. 1, the cold air is discharged into the freezer 18 from above through the cold air duct 7 by the rotation of the cold air delivery fan 6.

As shown by the arrow, this cold air passes between the frozen foods in the uppermost tray, reaches the lowermost tray, is cooled again by the evaporator 5, and then circulates inside the case.

When the tray 11 is completely inserted into the freezer showcase main body 1, this cold air does not leak out due to the backing attached to the outer periphery of the back surface of the front door 9.

To take out the frozen food, open the front door 9 corresponding to the tray containing the frozen food to be taken out by pulling it forward using the handle 9A, then take out the required amount of food in the tray 11, After taking out the food, the front door 9 only needs to be sealed against the freezer 18 again, and even when the front door is opened, the opening area is small, so leakage of cold air is small and efficiency is high.

As mentioned above, this idea has multiple openings arranged side by side on the front or side of the freezer case, a front door with a handle that is large enough to block each of these openings, and which can be opened and closed. Trays with ventilation are arranged in the case in correspondence with each door, and frozen foods are placed in each of these trays, so frozen foods can be stored separately depending on the type, making it easier to take out and stock items. This makes management extremely easy, and since the opening area required for taking out is small, the rise in temperature inside the refrigerator is small, resulting in energy savings.
