Patented Dec. 22, 1953 Georges Trpaud, Paris, France, assignor to The Society Refroidisseur Trepaud S. A. R. L., Paris, France, a corporation of France Application February 28, 1951, Serial No. 213,203 7 Claims priority, application France March 1, 1950 The invention relates to an apparatus for the manufacture of ice'in cylindrical moulds of a small diameter, bathing externally in arefrig The tubular ice-machine, according to the present invention, is characterized in that it is provided with a cylindrical elongated casing comprising two watertight cross partitions by means of which said casing is separated in three compartments, in the central compartment, a large central tube and 'a plurality of freezing pipes, the lower and upper ends of which are fitted in the two partitions, connecting thereby the two extreme compartments, a driving shaft, the axis of which coincides with the axis of the central tube, a screw fastened on said shaft to secure a continuous flow of the water to be congealed in the closed circuit constituted by the central tube, the two extreme compartments and the freezing pipes, a piping for the refrigerating' fluid, a piping for the defrosting fluid,
means to connect at least partially the ,annular space provided between the casing, the central tube and the two cross partitions successively with said two pipings.
As examples, two' embodiments of the invention are described hereafter and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, using cold'br ine as a; refrigerating fluid.
The Figure 1 is a vertical section along the axis of the first embodiment.
The Fig. 2 is a vertical section along the axis of the second embodiment.
The Figs. 3 and 4 show diagrammatically the circuits for the cold brine and for the tepid respectively. I
The first embodiment (Fig. 1) includes a verbrine, in the first and the second embodiments;
tical-cylindric'al casing .l' and an opened central tubev 2, having preferably an insulating wall, between which is formed an annular space, lim ited at the upper and lower, ends'by plates 3, 4, in which the cold brine enters through the lower duct 5 and comes out through the upper duct 6. This annular space is equipped with small freezing. pipes 1 opening over. the plate 3 and underneath the plate 4 andwith 'baflIes-B of the type described in' the French Patent- No. 797,552, granted to the same inventor, said 5 Claims. (Cl. 62-106) baffles forming an helical circuit'around the central tube 2. Theiextreme 'plates' of' this system of baflles are not cut to allow the flow of the brine and form two watertight walls or false baffles 3' and 4' limiting at the top and bottom of the annular space two intervals in which the cold brinewill not flow, but which communicate'through the ducts 5', 6' with .a tepid brine circuit and through theducts 5" and B" with the portion of the annular space within'the false baffles 3', 4.
I The vertical cylinder I bears a cover 12 having a duct I3 for the water inlet and a duct .14 for the flowing out of the water when the freez ing takes place whilst, at the lower portionbf the cylinder I, the small pipes 1 open, likethe central tube 2, in a removable connection bottom 15 hearing a. discharge valve I6. In addition, the central tube 2 is equipped, at its base, with a check valve l1 made of a flat and very light disc, whilst a screw l8, fast, axially with the central tube 2, on a shaft I9, is driven by a motor 2| disposed over the cover l2, equipped with a stuffing box 2!: the revolving direction of the screw is such that a forced ascending flow in the central tube 2 and a forced descending flow in the freezing pipes l are created, in countercurrent with the brine flow.
The apparatus works as follows: 'the pipes l are filled with water. As the'surfaces of the bafiles are very close to'each other, the brine will flow upwards, with a great speed but a small output, in directions substantially perpendicularto the small freezing pipes I, thus collecting the best conditions for a fast freezing of the water, with a small difference of temperature between the brineand the Water, and without any danger of bursting the pipes. A core freezing; giving compact ice cylinders becomes possible. i It is,'of course, possible to stop the freezing process'a' little soonerto obtain hol-' low cylinders of ice. As the cold brine cannot enter in the ext'remefpartitions, the freezing of the'waterat' the ends of the pipes 1 is'notcomplete", no ice is deposited onthe' plates 3 and ternal face of the freezing pipes 1, during. the
cooling of the water, or in contact with the ice layer in formation, when. the freezin has begun U v I 7 h.
When all the pipes are choked by me plugs.
3 the screw keeps on to stir the water of the central tube 2 or, in an alternate embodiment, the engine is automatically stopped, through a device of a known type.
The removal of the ice is carried on by opening the discharge valve l6, dismounting the removable bottom l5 and sending tepid brine in contact with the crest of pipes through the ducts 5, 6', and the ducts 5", 6", in the whole annular space between the plates 3 and 4.
The check valve l'l keeps in the central tube 2 I the water which it contains. The water of the upper part of the apparatus "and 'theice melting water can be collected to fill, through a, pump, the freezing pipes I.
In Fig. 3, the evaporator 22" produces :cold
brine by means of a primary refrigeratingfluid such as ammonia. The cold brine circuit is connected to the tubular ice-machine through thepipes 5 and '6. This cold brine circuit comprises two valves 23,. 24'anda pump 3! circulating the cold brine throughitheaiceimachine. Tl'lecir-v cult of: tepid brine, used for thawingztheice bars produced intheice-m'achine to allow same to be=discharged therefrom; is connected to the icemachine through i ducts 5; 6* and comprises valves 25; Zt and a. tank 21,: preferably under head. and freelyropening" in the. atmosphere hrough lani-expansion container 28, the same pump 3|-=:serving 'totcirculate'the tepid brine as I well as the cold brine as .will'betexplained hereafter. In :the tank 2'l'are1arranged two coils 29, .the first2-coil..29,-- -in which flows the filling water. of th'erice-machine, .isconnected at one handxto a water supplvandat theother hand,
to this latter through duct (I 3 .feeding .the water tobeifrozen to the iuppercompartment of the casing -.l, the filling watenbeing thus precooled due :to .thecontact between the J coil v2!; and the brine 'initank 21,. which'in its turn isheated to a temperature sufficient for thawing 1 purpose, for-"instance +5'i C. The reheating-of the brine for thawing purposeib'ecomes thereby costless :as it'allows theheat lost due to the melting of .icebars during the discharging thereof to-'be recovered forprecooling the filling water;
The second .coil;:30 l arrangedinrthetank- 21 is connected at oneshandizo the'compressor 'cone denserxdlliof :the'evap'oratorl2,-v i. e. to the-liquid: circuit :ofi the primary' refrigerating fluid;
an'dzat the other handtothe evaporator 22; said.
condensed: refrigerating: fluidflowing through the coil 30 also contributing to reheatthebrine. The operation of: the 1 device is 'as follows During :the freezing :ph'ase in the ice-machine I, the :valves 13;; 24 iare-:;opened-.. and the valves 25.26 closed, sothatithepump 3| circulates through the ice-machine I the cold brine com-'. ing from the evaporator 22. Inversely, during the thawing and discharging-phase, the valves 23 and 24 areiclosedxth'e valves25 and 526 opened, and
the pump?! circulates through thence-machine l thetepid brine coming-from the tankizln The second embodiment (Fig. 2) j'includesalso a vertical cylindrical. casing I, a central tube'2 and small. freezing p-ipesset in watertight plates 3 and 4. Bailles Barearranged roundthe central tube. [to supplying for. the cold brine,
entering through 5 land 'flowing out through -6, a substantially helical path.v Two watertight plates 3, 4' limit'twmeXtreme intervals corn.- municating. through the .ducts5, 5'. with-.a.-cir-. cuit of tepid brine .andthroughthe ducts 5 '6 with the main median part included between the plates 3' and if bodiment, the valve 11 must be'suppressedz. The water contained in the central tube -2 iisJsimply;
4 On the other hand, the upper cover l2 has no stuffing box: the shaft I9 of the screw I8 is just surrounded with a plunger tube 32 equipped with small blades 33 and integral with the cover [2. This arrangement is possible since the screw I8 turns in such a direction that it creates a descending flow in the central tube 2 .and an ascending flow in the freezingpipes I.- The pressure of the circulating water is in fact much higher at the inlet of the freezing pipes I as at the'exhaust, whilst the loss of head in the central tube 2 is practically negligible. The pressure at theinlet in'the pipes can even reach 2 meters of 'water'when the pipes are closed by the ice. In the first embodiment (Fig. 1), said pressure'isappliedfat the top of the apparatus and ...a stuffing box becomes necessary. In the second'embodiment (Fig. 2), the said pressure is-- applied at the basis of the apparatus: the pressure at the top is very small and a stufiing box is not essential.
As the direction-of thefiow of the wate1-.to-

The circulating direction of the brines-has not been inverted as the direction ofthe-water tc be congealed, since this apparatus provides forsuch:
a speed of the flow of'water in the pipes-:1 that the difierenoe of-the temperatures .of-=the :water at both ends of the-pipes .-.can .be negleetedeand the advantage of-acounterfiow becomes neg-j ligible.
