(01. 62-126) This invention relates generally to refrigeratnected by suitable tubing 11 to the compressor C ing apparatus, particularly to the cooling units and condenser D. Thus in this construction the thereof, and consists of certain novel features of expansion coils 10 carry the'pressure of the reconstruction, combinations and arrangements frigerant, and the corrugations 8 provide the of parts that will be hereinafter more fully derequired amount of heat absorption surface in a 60 scribed and particularly pointed out in the aprelatively small space. Y pended claims From the foregoing it will be apparent that the In the accompanying drawings: bodies 1 and 1f respectively of the units A and Figure l is a diagrammatic view of a refrig- A are identical and may be made by the same erating apparatus of the high side flooded type set of tools. When used in 'the expansion valve 65 and showing a cooling unit embodying my invensystem the corrugated shells of the body provide tion as a part thereof; the proper heat absorption surface in a small Figure 2 is a front elevation of the cooling space, and when used in the flooded type system unit illustrated in Figure 1; such corrugations also provide the proper strength Figure 3 is a vertical sectional view through and rigidity to resist deformation due to the pres- 70 the cooling unit; sure of the refrigerant. In both constructions the Figure 4 is a diagrammatic view of refrigeratinner shell constitutes a support and housing for ing apparatus of the expansion valve type; the ice trays or receptacles containing fluids to Figure 5 is a front elevation of the cooling be frozen. It will be noted that the material unit illustrated in Figure 4; of the inner shell is relatively wide between the 75 Figure 6 is a vertical sectional view through corrugations, wider than the corrugations, so as the'cooling unit illustrated in Figure-5. to provide a large flat heat absorbing surface for Referring to Figures 1 to 3 inclusive wherein the ice tray or trays supported thereon.

5. In a refrigerating system, an evaporator providing a largeheat absorbing surface for supporting an ice tray and outwardly extending heat absorbing surface for cooling circulating air, comprising in combination, a pair of concentric shells joined at either ends with the intermediate portions thereof spaced from one another to provide a closed chamber for a refrigerating medium, the intermediate portions of said shells having aligned outwardly projecting heat absorbing corrugations and refrigerant conveying tubes in intimate metallic contact with the material between the corrugation of the inner shell.
6. In a refrigerating system, an evaporator providing a large heat absorbing surface for supporting an ice tray and outwardly extending heat absorbing surface for cooling circulating air, comprising in combination, a pair of concentric shells joined at either ends with the intermediate portions thereof spaced from one another to provide a closed chamber for a refrigerating medium, the intermediate portions of said shells having sharp outwardly projecting fin like heat absorbing corrugations and having flat ice tray supporting portions intermediate said corrugations, said shells having upwardly extending side walls and the corrugations of said side, walls extending upwardly.
