REFRIGERATING MACHINE Filed Jilly 7 1942 mg. l.
Inventor: Carl H. Steensmup,
His Attorney Patented Mar. .30, 1943 a Carl H. 'Steenstrup, Schenectady, N. Y., assignor toGeneral Electric Company, a corporation of New York Application July7, 1942,'S'er ial No. 449,979
' 8 Claims. (01. 62125) Myinvention relates to refrigerating machines and particularly to such machines which employ evaporators of the so-called secondary type..
It is an object of my invention tofprovide a refrigertaing machine including an improved arrangement for utilizing an evaporator of the secondary type.
It is another object of my invention to provide a refrigerating machine including a. primary evaporator and'a secondary evaporator and. an improved arrangement for controlling the operation of the secondary evaporator.
Further objects and advantages of my invention will become apparent as the following description proceeds, and the features of novelty which characterize my invention will be pointedv out with particularity in the claims annexed to I and forming a part .of-this specification.
For a better understandingof my invention, referencemay be had to theaccompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a view of .a portion of :a refrigerator cabinetincluding the cooling compartment and provided with a refrigerating machine embodying my invention; Fig. 2 is antenlarged sectional view onthe line 2-2 of Fig. 1; and Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional view of another portion of the evaporator shown in Fig. 1.
Briefly; the refrigerating machine shown on the'drawing comprises an insulated refrigerator cabinet provided with an inner metal liner defining a compartment to be cooled and a suitable insulated door for closing the compartment. The compartment is cooled by a primary evaporator of the flooded type arranged in the upper portion thereof, and it is further cooled by a secondary evaporator arranged on the outside of thelinen and secured in heat conducting relationship with the liner. Heat from the secondary evaporator is transferred to the primary evaporator by-an intermediate evaporator of the secondary type' which is removably secured both to the primary evaporator and to the liner in heat exchange with the condenser portion of the secondary evaporator. The primary evaporator is controlled by a temperature responsive device including a thermal element secured to the primary evaporator in the usual manner. A portion of the intermediate evaporator is also secured to the primary evaporator adjacent the thermal element of the control so that upon a sudden load demand on the secondary evaporator system warm vapor will flow to the vicinity of the control element and cause the refrigerating machine to operate the primary evaporator even though the temperature of the primary evaporator is-sufiiciently low to satisfy the control.
Referring now;to the drawing in Fig. 1, I have shown a portion of a domestic refrigerator in which the cooling compartment is located, the base portion in which the machinery compart- .ment is located being omittedas it forms no part of the present invention. The refrigerator comprises a thermallyinsulated cabinet l0 provided with a metal liner ll forminga cooling compartment and a door l2 for closing the cooling compartment. In the upp r Portion ofthe' cooling compartment and suspended from the top wall of the liner is arranged an evaporator l3. In order to provide additional cooling capacity in the lower portion of the compartment an evaptorator M of the secondary type is secured to the outside of. the liner ll within the insulated wall of the cabinet. In the form illustrated the evaporator l4 comprises a continuous conduit or duct, extending back and forth across the wallo'f the cooling compartment; the upper portion of the'conduit comprises the condensing section of the secondary evaporator; the lower ,portions comprise the evaporating section. Within the evaporator l4 there is provided a quantity of vaporizable liquid which partially fills the evaporator, the remaining space in the evaporator being .filled with vaporized refrigerant. During theoperation of the evaporator [4 liquid refrigerant in the evaporating sectionis vaporized by the absorption of heat; the vapor rises to the condensing section and is condensed and then returns to the evaporating section by, gravity.
The evaporator I3 is a-primary evaporator and is supplied with refrigerant from a suitable refrigerating machine in accordance withthe usual practice; this primary evaporator is of the flooded type and includes a liquid and vapor separating header l5 formed by indentations inthe sheet metal walls of the evaporator and a plurality of ducts or louvers I 6 communicating with the lower portion of the header l5 and maintained I! in the usual manner by operationv of the refrigerating machine, and the periods of operation are determined by a control [8 vhaving an adjusting knob I9. This control starts and stops the refrigerating machine in response to the tem'- perature of the evaporator as determined by a thermal bulb or element 20 clamped to. the upper' portion of the header l5 above the normal level of liquid refrigerant. The control l8 operates normally to maintain the evaporator ii! at temperatures suitable for the freezing of ice in the space defined by the evaporator walls. A suitable shelf 2|, only a portion of which is shown, may be arranged in the evaporator to provide additional freezing surface. In order to operate the secondary evaporator H by removing heat therefrom, an auxiliary or intermediate evaporator, also of the secondary type, indicated at 22 is secured in heat exchange relation with the upper or condensing portion of the evaporator H and. with a side wall of the evaporator 13 adjacent the liquid refrigerant containing louvers. A plurality of clamps 23 are provided on the liner to hold the evaporator 22 tightly against the lineradjacent the evaporator l4 as clearly indicated in Fig. 2 so that heat may readily be transferred through the metal liner from one of the conduits to the other, and a plurality of similar clamps 24 are provided on the side wall of the evaporator l3 to hold the upper or condenser portion of the evaporator 22 in heat exchange relation therewith. The intermediate evaporator 22 thus serves to conduct heat from ing the temperature throughout the primary evaporator.
The arrangement described above is particularly useful when the shelves or other obstructions are placed in the cooling compartment so that the lower portion of the compartment or cabinet is not cooled sufficiently by the normal operation vof the primary evaporator, in which case the secondary evaporator is relied on to carry a substantial portion of the load. This system will operate to provide adequate capacity of the secondary evaporator even though the the secondary evaporator It to the primary evaporator I3 without the necessity of having the secondary evaporator l4 extend through the liner H into contact with theevaporator'IS. Furthermore, by making the intermediate evaporator readily removable the'primary evaporator may be taken out for inspection or repair without in any way interfering with the secondary evaporator.
During the operation of the refrigerating machine it may happen that food or'other articles placed within the lower portion of the cooling compartment produce a sudden load demand requiring increased capacity of the evaporator I4 and it is desirable that the primary evaporator l3 be maintained in operation even though its temperature may be such thatit would not require operation of the refrigerating machine to maintain the primary evaporator within its required range of temperatures. Thereis, therefore, provided an arrangement responsive to the load demand of the secondary evaporator for causing the control [8 to operate and satisfy the load demand of the secondary evaporator even though it is not in operation .at the time to satisfy a load demand on'the primary evaporator. In the arrangement illustrated and shown in detail in Fig. 3, a vapor riser or conduit 25 is connected in communication with the topmost coil of the intermediate evaporator 22 and extends upwardly into thermal contact with the control element or bulb 2D. Whenever there is an increased load demand on the secondary evaporator the refrigerant within the intermediate evaporator 22 which is vaporized rises and increases the temperature within the riser 25. This increase in temperature is immediately felt by the control bulb 20 which responds to start operation or to insure continued operation of the evaporator I3 to satisfy the demand on the secondary evaporator. The primary evaporator is, therefore, conditioned to operate at a sufficiently low temperature to transfer the heat from the secondary evaporator through the intermediate evaporator to the refrigerating machine as rapidly as possible. The operation of the riser 25 makes the increased load demand immediately effective in modifying the operation of the control without the necessity of increas food compartm nt should be divided in two separate compartments by a solid shelf or by the placing of articles on a grille shelf.
It will readily'be apparent from the foregoing that I have provided a simple and effective arrangement for transferring heat from a secondary evaporator to the primary evaporator and for insuring adequate cooling capacity of the secondary evaporator, and that the arrangement makes these advantages possible without the necessity of carrying the secondary evaporator through the metal liner of the cooling compartment.
While I have described my invention in connection with a household refrigerator, other applications will readily be apparent to those skilled in the art. I do not, therefore, desire my invention to be limited to the particular construction described and illustrated, and I intend in the appended claims to cover all modifications within the spirit and scope of my invention.
