20 Claims. (Cl. 62-126) My invention relates to ooded evaporators for refrigerating systems having an arrangement for inducing circulation of the liquid vrefrigerant therein.
In evaporators of the flooded type having a header and a depending body provided with passages or tubes wherein liquid refrigerant is circulated, itis the 'practice to depend upon the difference in temperature between various parts of the evaporator and evaporation of refrigerant -therein to effect circulation of the liquid refrigerant. The circulation produced in this manner is often not suiiicient and is also not uniform,y and for this reason it is desirable to provide some means for directing and increasing the circula tion of refrigerant in the evaporator.
It is an object of' my invention to provide an evaporator of the flooded type having a header and a depending circulartory passage for liquid refrigerant wherein circulation is induced in these passages by injecting liquid refrigerant.
Another object of my invention is to provide a simple and economical construction for evaporators of the iioodedv type having a device for injecting refrigerant into the evaporator to induce circulation of liquid refrigerant therein. y
Further objects and advantages ofv my invention will become apparent as the following description proceeds and the features of novelty which'characterize my invention will be pointedl out with particularlty in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this specification.I
For a better understanding of my invention, reference may be had to the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a perspective rear view of a sheet metal evaporator embodying my invention; Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view of the injector shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the evaporator shown in Fig. 1 lalong the line 3-3 of Fig. 2; and Fig. 4 is a front elevation view of a household refrigerator employing an evaporator constructed in accordance with my invention.
Referring now to the drawing, in Fig. 1 I have shown a iiooded evaporator comprising a cylindrical header or evaporatlng chamber I0 and a depending body `Il forming al freezing zone box shaped to receive and support articles such as freezing trays. The depending body Il comprises an inner shell I2 and an oter corrugated shell I3 secured together to form a plurality of circuitous refrigerant circulating passages, ducts or conduits I4. These passages or tubes communicate at the opposite ends thereof with the header below the liquid level therein, which is 1 the orifices.
maintained approximately as indicated by the line Illa in Fig. 1. This evaporator is of the same general construction as the sheet metal evaporator disclosed and claimed in my copending application, Serial No. 389,050, filed August 28, 1929, and assigned to the same' assignee as the 'present invention.
The inner shell or wall I2 of the depending body I I is also provided with a transverseiiute or corrugation I5 on one side and above the bot- 10 tom or lowermost portion thereof, which constitutes a refrigerant entry chamber. I supply liquid refrigerant to the evaporator through a tube or liquid return duct I6 closed at one end by a plug I1 and arranged in the transverse iiute 15 I5 out of the path of the liquid circulating in the passages I4. As can be seen in Fig. 3, the tube I6 enters the iiute I5 at `I8 where a sleeve I9 is fitted over the tube and spaces it from the side of the iiute. The tube, sleeve, and evaporator shell 20 are secured together by welding, brazing, or any other suitable method which provides fluid. tightA joints. 'Ihe tube I6 is provided with a plurality of orifices 20, one opposite each of the passages I4 for supplying refrigerant equably to the pas- 25 lsages I4 which are connected in parallel or mul- 1y through the passages I4 from the header about the bottom of the evaporator and upwardly past passages' is carried with the liquid refrigerant to the header where the vapor separates from the circulating liquid and accumulates in the headl er above the level of liquid refrigerant therein.
This refrigerant, which is converted to vapor 45 inet 24 vwithin which is arranged an evaporator 55 The refrigerant vaporized in the 40 constructed in accordance with my invention. In the operation of the refrigerating system shown in Fig. 4, gaseous refrigerant is converted to liquid refrigerant by being compressed and condense-d in the compressor and condenser unit 23, and then the condensed liquid refrigerant flows through a flow-control device and partially vaporizes, from which the liquid and vapor flows through the conduit 26 to an injector within the flute I5 in the depending body Il of the evaporator within the refrigerator cabinet. Liquid and vaporized refrigerant enters the evaporator through the orifices 20 shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3, and induces an upward ow of refrigerant on the left-hand side of the evaporator, as viewed in Fig. 4. The refrigerant will circulate in a clockwise direction through the evaporator, as viewed in Fig. 4, and as it circulates, will absorb heat from the ice trays 21 and air circulated in. the refrigerator cabinet. 'Ihis evaporates a portion of the refrigerant and the vapor collects in the header I0. The vapor will then be drawn back into the compressor and condenser unit through a conduit 28. 'Ihis cycle will be repeated throughout the operation of the refrigerating system. The forced circulation of the liquid refrigerant induced by the injection of refrigerant e through the tube I 6 results in increased efficiency in the operation of the evaporator.
It is apparent that I have provided a simple and effective means for inducing circulation of refrigerant in evaporators of the flooded type which comprise a header and depending refrigerant circulating passages opening into the header.
While I have shown and described my invention in connection with a sheet metal evaporator of a specific type, it will be understood that it is applicable to other types of evaporators, and I do not desire my invention to be limited to the specic construction shown and described, and I intend in the appended claims to cover all modifications thereof which do not depart from the spirit and scope of my invention.
