The present inventions relates to a refrigeration apparatus.
In particular, the present invention is used for refrigerating beverage containers.
It is common practice for products to be bottled and sold commercially on a large scale. These products can include the likes of alcohol, soft drinks, juice, dairy products, food, medicine and other consumable products.
In many instances, it is desired for the product to be stored and sold cold. There are many reasons for this, such as health and safety reasons for the likes of milk, or some products simply tastes better when cold, like beer or soft drinks.
For products that are more desirable when it is cold, it is common practice for the merchandisers to store these products in a refrigerator until the consumer purchases the product.
With this common practice, the general problem exists that the product, after it has been purchased and taken out of the refrigerator, does not stay cold for very long due to the product's heat transfer according to the atmospheric conditions.
The most trivial solution to the above problem is to freeze the product before removing it for consumption. This is usually conducted at home and not in the retail situation. While it is useful in keeping the products cool for a longer period of time, it has a number of obvious disadvantages.
Firstly, the frozen product will need to melt first before it can be consumed, so a thirsty person may need to wait for a considerable time before they can start consuming the product within the container, which is not desirable.
There have been attempts to solve the problem. U.S. Pat. No. 5,284,028 issued to Wilco R. Stuhmer describes a beverage container having a main beverage chamber and an ice chamber consisting of a polymeric film pouch located within the main chamber. By filling the ice chamber with ice, a beverage in the beverage chamber can be kept cold by virtue of the heat transfer from the beverage to the ice through the polymeric film. This configuration prevents dilution of the beverage just prior to consumption.
Wilco R. Stuhmer further developed a refrigerator which will allow the storage of such beverage bottles and this is described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,311,499. This patent describes a dual-temperature refrigerating device for partially freezing beverage inside a sealed beverage container. One compartment within the device is held at a temperature below freezing and another compartment is kept at a temperature above freezing. An opening between the two compartments allows a beverage container to be placed so that it is simultaneously exposed to below-freezing temperatures and above-freezing temperatures.
Although such a refrigerator works effectively in terms of keeping a part of the bottle's contents frozen, it is not very commercially useful. The refrigerator as described in Stuhmer's patent has a number of disadvantages.
First of all, it is very expensive to manufacture. The refrigerator needs to have two separate compartments, at different temperatures. This means that the structure of the refrigerator will need to meet certain standards in terms of thermal insulation, as well as a costly set up in terms of having two separate coolers (or coolers with dual control) in order to provide the different temperature compartments.
Secondly, the way the bottle sits for such a refrigerator is not viable commercially. The opening between the two compartments is where the bottle is placed. This means that only a limited amount of bottles can be placed in the refrigerator at any one time.
Thirdly, again, with the way the bottle sits in this refrigerator, it makes it difficult for the user to load and unload bottles out of the refrigerator. Furthermore, it will be prone to breaking if unloaded incorrectly. Therefore, it is not practical for everyday use to an average consumer.
Fourthly, there are some reasonably high maintenance costs in relation to this refrigerator. The two compartments means two separate cooling systems, as well as the actual structure of the refrigerator itself makes it hard to maintain.
Lastly the two separate cooling systems in this refrigerator will require a large amount of energy in order for the freezer to work effectively.
In light of the above, it is advantageous to provide a refrigerator which allows the contents of the bottle to be partially frozen, but at the same time being commercially viable, relatively cheap to manufacture and maintain, easy to operate and load/unload and energy efficient.

It is an object of the present invention to address the foregoing problems or at least to provide the public with a useful choice.
Further aspects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the ensuing description which is given by way of example only.
According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a freezing receptacle for use within a cooling apparatus:
wherein the freezing receptacle is configured to hold part of a beverage container to be contained within the receptacle, and
the freezing receptacle includes a mechanism to assist cooling of the beverage container
According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a cooling apparatus including:
a refrigeration compartment; and
a freezing receptacle as described above.
According to another aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of cooling using a cooling apparatus wherein the cooling apparatus includes
a refrigeration compartment; and
a freezing receptacle as described above;
characterised by the steps of
The term cooling apparatus should be understood to be any apparatus, device or system which is used to artificially remove heat via any heat transfer mechanisms or systems.
In preferred embodiments, the mechanism that assists the cooling of the beverage container is in the form of a thermal conduction plate.
Heat can be transferred between physical systems via three main mechanisms. Thermal conduction, thermal convection and thermal radiation.
Thermal conduction can be broadly described as the transfer of energy between objects that are in physical contact.
Thermal convection can be broadly described as the transfer of energy between an object and its environment, due to fluid motion.
Thermal radiation can be broadly described as the transfer of energy to or from a body by means of the emission or absorption of electromagnetic radiation.
Typical heat transfer of cooling systems can include non-cyclic, cyclic, vapour-compression cycle, vapour absorption cycle (use of refrigerants), gas cycle, thermoelectric and magnetic and the like.
The term refrigeration compartment should be understood to mean any compartment, space or receptacle which is artificially kept cool via any heat transfer mechanisms or systems.
Preferably the refrigeration compartment has an entry configured to allow a user to load and unload items into/from the refrigeration compartment.
In some embodiments the entry can be closed via a door or gate. Such doors or gates include any standard refrigerator or vending machine doors and the like.
In these embodiments the doors or gates may be lockable in situations when the entry is not desirable to be opened. For example, if the cooling apparatus is used in a vending machine application, then the entry to the cooling apparatus needs to be secured. However, for these embodiments there will be an access to obtain the beverage which is purchased, much like a conventional vending machine.
In other embodiments, the entry is a permanent opening accessible by the user. This particular embodiment is especially useful for supermarkets or shops and the like.
Preferably the atmosphere within the refrigeration compartment is at a temperature which cools the contents stored within, but does not freeze the contents.
Preferably the atmosphere within the refrigeration compartment is above 0° C., so that the contents of the beverage container exposed in the refrigeration compartment does not freeze.
In one embodiment, the atmosphere within the refrigeration compartment is −1 to +5° C. as this is a standard commercial range—particularly for water based products. The ideal temperature will depend on the composition of the fluid. However, it should be appreciated that some fluids such as alcohol freeze at lower temperatures may be held at a colder temperature range than other fluids such as water.
The term freezing receptacle should be understood to be any, structure, apparatus or device which is configured to contain at least a part of a beverage container, while artificially cooling the contents of the beverage container via thermal conduction
Preferably the freezing receptacle incorporates at least one thermal conduction plate.
The freezing receptacle is preferably designed to sit substantially horizontally and level within the cabinet.
In some embodiments the freezing receptacle is configured to contain only a part of the structure of the beverage container so that the rest of the structure of the beverage container is exposed to the atmosphere of the refrigeration compartment so that different parts of the beverage container is cooled at different rates or to different temperatures.
Preferably, the thermal conduction plate freezes the contents of the portion of the beverage container contained adjacent to it.
Preferably the freezing receptacle incorporating at least one thermal conduction plate operates at a temperature (at contact point with the beverage containers) of between −40 to −10° C. This temperature range is relevant as for instance using a lower temperature to aid more rapid freezing may be more suitable with some fluids to freeze the fluid in the bottom section of the beverage container in the optimum time. These temperatures can be varied to meet different performance criteria. It should be noted that below −40° C. may be uneconomical to achieve.
Preferably, the freezing receptacle is in physical contact with the outer surfaces of the structure of the beverage container in order to provide cooling via thermal conduction.
Preferably, the freezing receptacle is of a structure configured so that a number of beverage containers can be contained within the structure of the freezing receptacle in a row or multiple rows, much like a shelving system for a vending machine. This is to allow a large number of drinks to be stored within the freezing receptacle.
In one embodiment, the freezing receptacle is configured to allow the beverage containers to slide forward to the front of the receptacle. This can be achieved by an angled construction where the beverage containers can slide forward under its own weight, as the beverage container in front is removed.
The freezing receptacle may be configured to be substantially complementary to a part of the dimensions of the beverage container so the beverage container can be fitted into the freezing receptacle while maintaining physical contact between at least a part of the container and the receptacle.
In one embodiment, the freezing receptacle is a channel or channels that substantially matches the cross section of the part of the beverage containers to be stored. So that the beverage containers can be recessed into the structure of the freezing receptacle and maintain maximum contact with the freezing thermal conduction plate to ensure maximum thermal transfer.
In this embodiment, there is a small gap between the side structures of the freezing receptacle and the beverage container. The gap is approximately 1 mm. This is to allow fitment of variations of the beverage container and allow some movement.
In some embodiments of the present invention the freezing receptacle is in the form of a shelf which can be fitted in to and removed from a cooling apparatus as this allows existing cooling apparatus such as fridge cabinets to have these freezing receptacles retro-fitted into them. Further, this allows freezing receptacles to be removed for the purposes of cleaning and or maintenance.
However, in preferred embodiments the receptacles are fixed in a predetermined location which would be defined by the size/height of beverage containers to be used. This could vary and therefore merchandisers could have different shelf configurations.
Some freezing receptacles may include a biasing means which allows the receptacle to be temporarily expanded to receive a beverage container under a force, but will bias back to its original position once the container is within the receptacle. This is to ensure that the fit between container and the receptacle is always snug, and to ensure there is always physical contact between the container and thermal conduction plate.
The surface area of the freezing receptacle that is in contact with the beverage container has a direct relationship to the rate of cooling/freezing and the like. In a preferred embodiment, the contact surface area between the base of the beverage container and the freezing thermal conduction plate is maximised.
Preferably, the freezing receptacle is of a structure that is robust enough to support the weight of the beverage containers and their contents within its structure without significant deflection to maintain the physical contact between the freezing thermal conduction plate and the beverage container.
Preferably, the freezing receptacle will have insulation to the base and sides and incorporate thermal breaks where required to reduce condensation forming on the outside surfaces.
Preferably, the freezing receptacle will contain a cooling mechanism in the form of a specially designed circuit or pipes to reticulate the refrigerant gas on the side of the freezing receptacle structure that is not in contact with the beverage containers. This cools the freezing receptacle to the desired temperate which in turn removes heat from the beverage containers via thermal conduction.
In some embodiments, there may be more than one freezing receptacle in the refrigerating apparatus. This allows a larger volume of beverage containers to be stored.
In these embodiments, the freezing receptacles can be configured as an assembly to be installed into the refrigerating apparatus.
In an alternative embodiment, the freezing receptacles are separate modules that can be retrofitted into existing refrigerating apparatuses.
As an example only, each freezing receptacle may have a nominal refrigerating capacity of 50 watts/hr at −15° C. saturated suction temperature and +35° C. saturated condensing temperature. The first figure −15° C. relates to the evaporating temperature of the refrigerant in the receptacle, the second +35° C. relates to the condensing temperature of the refrigerant which is affected by the ambient temperature the system is operating in.
There could be various operating parameters dictated by variables such as volume and desired time to complete the cycle, and the above is one example. The cooling system design may need to be adjusted to accommodate different ambient temperatures and operating conditions with components selected accordingly to perform under these conditions.
The total refrigerating capacity of the refrigeration system will vary with the size and internal volume of the refrigerating compartment and the volume of product to be refrigerated within it. The design rating of the refrigeration system for the cabinet will remain reasonably linear with the freezing receptacle design if the refrigerating compartment is up or down scaled. However, the option to vary system capacity is available to reduce freezing times and or accommodate more beverage containers if required.
In one embodiment, there may be provided a feeding channel into which the beverage containers can be loaded. The feeding channel will then be connected to a number of substantially parallel rows which act to align the beverage containers so that they can be readily accessible from the cooling apparatus.
In some embodiments, the cooling apparatus may have one way barriers (say gates) at the end of each channel. This feature allows the beverage containers to be removed from the cooling apparatus and not readily placed back therein—except via the feeding channel.
This feature also ensures that the coldest beverage containers (that is the ones that have been in the cooling apparatus for the longest) are the ones which are the most accessible.
In some embodiments there are a number of display channels which depend from the feeding channel.
An option is to provide contact cooling at the base of the beverage container with the bottle inverted, so as to set up convection in the beverage container. Tests have shown this method can reduce the time taken to lower the beverage temperature from ambient temperature to 0 deg C. once it is placed in the refrigeration apparatus.
Bottles are loaded into the fridge shelving system with the base of the bottle facing upwards. Shelving may be arranged so that each shelf supports the top of the bottle (inserted into it upside down) and holds it firmly into the shelf above it where the contact freezing occurs.
This method invokes “convection” within the bottle which compared to “heat transfer” with the conduction method results in a faster freezing time. Heater plates are located between each shelf or alternatively heat can be introduced into the fridge compartment via other methods to maintain the desired temperature in the ambient space to control the ice growth within the bottle to the desired level.
Freezing the bottle when it is positioned within the specially designed refrigerated shelf in the horizontal plane can further reduce the freezing time due to a higher convection heat transfer coefficient.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the beverage containers are in the form of a waisted bottle with a passage that is closed by application of force such as that described in the Applicant's PCT application number PCT/NZ2013/000190. This beverage container is designed to separate beverage in a compartment on one side of the closed passage that can be frozen while beverage on the other side of the closed passage can be maintained in its liquid form.
In another preferred embodiment the beverage container does not have a closed passageway but incorporates structures that influence the thermal convection liquid flow within a single complex compartment of the container.
In some embodiments the mass volume of the contents in closest contact with the thermal conduction plate should be minimized to encourage freezing.
In operation, the user places a beverage container in the cooling apparatus via the feeding channel of the cooling apparatus.
The beverage container is placed within the freezing receptacle in the refrigeration compartment so that the container fits snugly into the freezing receptacle, while maintaining maximum physical contact between the surface areas of the receptacle and container.
Only a part of the beverage container sits in the freezing receptacle, while the other part of the container is exposed to the refrigeration compartment's atmosphere of 3 to 5° C. or a temperature more suitable for any specific product.
The refrigerant contained in the refrigeration system contacts the side and base of the freezing thermal conduction plate that is not in contact with the beverage container, cooling the thermal conduction plate to its desired temperature range of −40 to −10° C. (as desired). The thermal conduction plate thus removes heat from the contents of the beverage container and freezing the contents that are contained within the receptacle, while the contents that are not contained within the receptacle will be cooled and maintained at the desired temperature usually between 3 to 5° C. in the atmosphere compartment of the cooling apparatus, and stay in its liquid state.
In some embodiments, the beverage container sits on top of the freezing receptacle which supports and can also cool the beverage container from below (and/or the side).
In other embodiments, the beverage container may be held from its top by the freezing receptacle or by its side.
It is envisaged that in some embodiments the user would push the beverage container into a feeding channel which forms a part of the freezing receptacle. This causes other beverage containers already within the receptacle to move to the ends of a channel or channels depending from the feeding channel.
In some embodiments the present invention may be used with beverage containers containing carbonated fluids. It should be appreciated that bottles made from plastics material often need strengthening in various parts of the bottle including the base if they are to hold carbonated fluids. Often the strengthening is in the form of corrugations, spokes or channels.
However, bottles having this design may not have the ideal surface contact with the freezing receptacle to freeze with the required efficiency. Thus, in some embodiments the freezing receptacle may have a complimentary shape to the beverage containers to optimise the surface contact. For example, if the base of the beverage container has an indent, there may be a correspondingly shaped protrusion on the base of the freezing receptacle. The protrusion could also act as a guide further stabilising the bottles within the freezing receptacle.
Someone requiring a chilled beverage container in accordance with the present invention can then access the container from the ends of those channels. Access may or may not be governed by gates on the channels.
The invention can be used to merchandise and retail the drink products in a refrigerated cabinet (merchandiser) that may have a glass door and be accessed by the public and staff for both purchasing and loading requirements. This invention can be used by a self-service or vending style of merchandiser of the type that is used widely by the beverage industry to retail its products.
Additional features of the present invention may include:
It can be seen that the present invention has a number of advantages over the prior art. They are:
Further aspects of the present invention will become apparent from the following description which is given by way of example only and with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
The cooling apparatus (1) has the outside structure of a conventional refrigerator, including a door (6) which allows access to the interior of the cooling apparatus (1).
The interior of the cooling apparatus is defined as the refrigerator compartment (2). In this refrigeration compartment (2), a number of freezing receptacles incorporating thermal conduction plates (3) are adapted to be installed, and act as shelving to contain the beverage containers (4).
The freezing receptacles (3) contain the bottom portion of the beverage container (4) within their structures, freezing the contents of the portion of the beverage container (4), while leaving the rest of the beverage container (4) and its content exposed to the atmosphere of the refrigerator compartment (2).
In this embodiment, the freezing receptacles (3) are cooled by a refrigeration system (5) providing refrigerants to the thermal conduction plates (3), bringing them to between −40 to −10 degrees Celsius and preferably to about −15° C. to −18° C. in temperature. As the thermal conduction plates (3) are in physical contact with the beverage container (4) via thermal conduction, this in turn freezes the beverage. The contents of the portion of this beverage containers (4) that is not in physical contact with the freezing receptacles (3) are left in its liquid form and are prevented from freezing via the refrigeration compartment atmosphere.
In the base (8) of the freezing receptacle (3) are a number of refrigerant pipes (9) which carry refrigerant through the receptacle. A range of refrigerants could be used and prove suitable for this application from HFC, HFO or natural refrigerants. New refrigerants are being developed to meet international requirements to reduce global warming potential therefore actual refrigerant chosen could be determined by commercial or environmental considerations.
It can be seen that when the beverage containers (4) are in position, only the portion of the beverage containers below their waist (10) is in contact with the freezing receptacle (3).
In this configuration, there is provided a feeding channel (11) into which the beverage containers (4) are inserted. The beverage containers (4) are pushed along into the display channels (7) until they meet the ends thereof. At the ends of the display channels (7) are gates (12) which prevent the beverage containers (4) from falling off the receptacle (3) until being removed by a user.
It can be seen that the configuration of the freezing receptacle (3) is such that the beverage containers (4) are oriented and presented well with and being kept upright and stable.
In this configuration, the feeding channel (11b) is on the left hand side of the receptacle (3). Beverage containers (4b) are inserted into the feeding channels (11b). Beverage containers (4b) are then pushed along into the display channels (7b) until they meet the ends thereof. Rail guides (100) guide and locate the containers (4b) into the channels (7b). At the back of the channels (7b) are shelf bumps (101) which act to prevent the beverage containers (4b) from jamming in the display channels (7b).
It should be noted that the display channels (7b) are also freezing channels and it is possible for the beverage containers (4b) to be loaded or returned to any freezing channel.
High pressure hot discharge vapour is pumped from the compressor (20) to an external condenser (21). Heat is removed from the vapour by the condenser fan (21) and the refrigerant changes state from vapour to liquid when cooled below the saturated condensing temperature of the refrigerant. Liquid then flows from the condenser (21) to a liquid receiver (22). Liquid then passes from the liquid receiver (22) to the expansion device (23).
As liquid flows through the expansion device (23) it undergoes a pressure drop. Liquid refrigerant begins to boil at the corresponding saturation temperature in relation to the pressure. A refrigerant is now in a state of liquid/vapour mixture. As the refrigerant moves through the evaporator (24) it continues to boil as heat energy is transferred from the refrigerated space (50) to the refrigerant. By the time the refrigerant exits the evaporator (24), all of the liquid refrigerant has boiled and the refrigerant is now in a superheated vapour state.
Superheated suction vapour is then drawn from the evaporator (24) to the compressor (20) and the cycle begins again.
A separate line (27) is also taken from the discharge line (25). This line (27) passes through a solenoid valve (28) which is controlled by the ambient temperature within the refrigerated space (50). When the valve opens hot discharge vapour is allowed to pass to the internal condenser plates (26). As the discharge vapour passes through the condenser plates (26), heat energy is removed from the refrigerant and it changes state to a liquid.
Liquid then flows back from the internal condenser plates (26) and rejoins the liquid line after the external condenser (21). This allows a portion of the heat energy absorbed by the evaporator (24) to be reintroduced into the ambient air of the refrigerated space (50). This allows for the ambient temperature to be maintained above the freezing point of the product while having no effect on the evaporator temperature. So the portion of the product in contact with the evaporator (24) is allowed to freeze while the portion of the product not in contact will remain in the liquid state.
When the defrost begins the solenoid valve (30) in the suction line closes. There is a line (31) taken from the discharge line (25) through another solenoid valve (32), and into the line feeding the evaporators (24) after the expansion device (23). This solenoid (32) opens as the suction line solenoid closes (30).
Hot discharge vapour will now flow directly into the evaporators (24) and they will defrost. As the vapour passes through the evaporators (24) heat is transferred from the refrigerant to the refrigerated space (50). The refrigerant changes state to a liquid when it reaches its saturated condensing temperature. The liquid refrigerant then passes through an expansion device (33) and into a fan assisted evaporator (34) inside the refrigerated space (50). The pressure drop through the expansion device (33) allows the liquid refrigerant to begin boiling as described in
Superheated suction vapour is then drawn back to the compressor (20). When the defrost time period has elapsed the hot gas solenoid valve (32) will shut, the system will be allowed to run for a predetermined amount of time to clear most of the liquid refrigerant from the evaporators freezer plates (24). After this period has elapsed the solenoid valve (30) in the suction line will open and normal operation will resume.
There is also a liquid line sightglass (41) which is a visual check to ensure there is enough refrigerant in the system for operation. Liquid flow and level can be seen through the sightglass (41). The drawing also shows a solenoid valve (55) in the liquid line after the liquid sightglass (41). At times it may be desirable to shut off liquid flow to the evaporators (24) by closing this solenoid valve (55).
The other function of the liquid to suction heat exchanger (43) is to ensure no liquid refrigerant is present in the suction line before the vapour enters the compressor (20) which can be detrimental to the compressor's operation. By absorbing additional heat from the liquid through the heat exchanger (43) it is less likely liquid will pass through to the compressor (20) as any remaining liquid in the suction line will likely boil in the heat exchanger (43).
The high pressure side encompasses the piping and parts between the compressor discharge connection and the expansion device (23) feeding the evaporators (24). The low pressure side of the system encompasses all the piping and parts from the expansion valve outlet (33) to the compressor (20) suction connection. The lines and parts feeding the internal condensers (26) would be considered as part of the high pressure side of the system. During Hot gas defrost the evaporators (24) would also be considered part of the high pressure side of the system up to the inlet of the expansion device (33) feeding the defrost evaporator. The defrost evaporator (34) would be considered part of the low pressure side of the system.
It can also be seen that the sides (124) of the receptacle (122) are also complimentary in shape to the lower part of the bottle (120).
The thermal convective flows (138, 139) in the container contents are guided by the angles (Angle A, Angle B) of the sidewall from the longitudinal axis, which are both preferably within the range of 20° to 65° but more preferably within the range of 30° to 60°. Shown are two angles of 40° (Angle A, Angle B). These angles redirect the warmer container contents (138) back toward the warmer top part of the container and redirect the cooler container contents (139) back toward the cooler bottom part of the container. This reduces the mixing of the warm and cold internal convective flows and decreases the time to freeze the lower contents of the container.
The height of the narrow passage (Height A) is variable, but preferably in the range of 10% to 60% of the total height of the container (Total Height). And more preferably between the range of 20% to 40% of the total height of the container (Total Height).
The thermal convective flows (158, 159) in the container contents are guided by the angle (Angle C) of the sidewall from the longitudinal axis, which is preferably within the range of 20° to 75° but more preferably within the range of 30° to 60°. Shown is an angle of 70° (Angle C). These angles redirect the warmer container contents (158) back toward the warmer top part of the container and redirect the cooler container contents (159) back toward the cooler bottom part of the container. This reduces the mixing of the warm and cold internal convective flows and decreases the time to freeze the containers lower contents.
The height of the narrow passage (Height B) is variable, but preferably in the range of 10% to 60% of the total height of the container (Total Height). And more preferably between the range of 20% to 40% of the total height of the container (Total Height).
Aspects of the present invention have been described by way of example only and it should be appreciated that modifications and additions may be made thereto without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
