Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for supercooling, and more particularly, to an apparatus for supercooling which stores water in supercooled state in a water container provided in the supercooling apparatus so that a user can take the water in the supercooled state.
  • This technology uses supercooling.
  • Supercooling means that a molten object or a solid cooled below a phase transition temperature in a balanced state is not changed.
  • FIG. 1 is a view illustrating an embodiment of a conventional apparatus for thawing and freshness keeping.
  • a cooling box 1 includes an insulation 2 and an outer wall 5.
  • a temperature control device (not shown) is installed in the cooling box 1.
  • a metal shelf 7 installed in the cooling box 1 has a two layer structure. Vegetables, meats or marine products are mounted on each layer for thawing, freshness keeping or ripening.
  • the metal shelf 7 is isolated from the bottom of the cooling box 1 by insulators 9.
  • a high voltage generating device 3 can generate 0 to 5000V of DC and AC voltages.
  • the inner surface of the insulation 2 is covered with an insulating plate 2a such as vinyl chloride.
  • a high voltage cable 4 for outputting the voltage of the high voltage generating device 3 accesses the metal shelf 7 through the outer wall 5 and the insulation 2.
  • a safety switch 13 (refer to Fig. 2) is turned off to block the output of the high voltage generating device 3.
  • Fig. 2 is a circuit view illustrating the circuit configuration of the high voltage generating device 3.
  • 100V of AC is supplied to a primary side of a voltage adjusting transformer 15.
  • Reference numeral 11 denotes a power lamp and 19 denotes an operation state lamp.
  • a relay 14 is operated.
  • the operation of the relay 14 is displayed by a relay operation lamp 12.
  • Relay contact points 14a, 14b, and 14c are closed by the operation of the relay 14, and 100V of AC is applied to the primary side of the voltage adjusting transformer 15.
  • the applied voltage is adjusted by an adjusting knob 15a at a secondary side of the voltage adjusting transformer 15.
  • the adjusted voltage is displayed on a voltmeter.
  • the adjusting knob 15a is connected to a primary side of a boosting transformer 17 at the secondary side of the voltage adjusting transformer 15.
  • the boosting transformer 17 boosts a voltage at a rate of 1 :50. For example, when 60V of voltage is applied, it is boosted to 3000V.
  • One end O of the secondary side output of the boosting transformer 17 is connected to the metal shelf 7 isolated from the cooling box 1 through the high voltage cable 4, and the other end O of the output is earthed. Since the outer wall 5 is earthed, if the user contacts the outer wall 5 of the cooling box 1 , he/she does not receive an electric shock. In Fig. 1, the metal shelf 7 exposed in the cooling box 1 mist be maintained in an insulated state. It is thus necessary to separate the metal shelf 7 from the walls of the cooling box 1 (the air performs insulation). If the contents 8 mounted on the metal shelf 7 contact the walls of the cooling box 1, the current flows to the ground through the walls of the cooling box 1. Drop of the applied voltage is prevented by adhering the insulating plate 2a to the inner walls. When the metal shelf 7 is not exposed but covered with vinyl chloride, an electric field atmosphere is made in the whole cooling box 1.
