An equipment body of an ultrasonic rapid freezing equipment is provided with a placement cavity, and the placement cavity is provided with a first electric telescopic rod. The bottom end of the first electric telescopic rod is provided with a receiving plate connected to a movable plate, and the movable plate is driven by a motor to rotate. The equipment body is provided with a first conveyor belt, and the inner end of the first conveyor belt is equipped with a second conveyor belt. The second conveyor belt is located on a mounting frame, and the bottom of the mounting frame is connected to a second electric telescopic rod. The bottom end of the second electric telescopic rod is connected to a moving block, the roller at the bottom of the moving block is located in the track on the top surface of the supporting block.

Disclosed herein is a multi-temperature-region ice-temperature fresh keeping storehouse and a fresh keeping method for bergamot pears that includes a precooling region, a feeding and discharging channel, a cooling region, an ice temperature detection device, a grading device, a conveyer belt control device, an automatic storage device, and a temperature rise and fall buffering channel. The cooling region includes four freezers, with temperatures ranging from 0° C.-−3° C. The four freezers are connected level by level according to a temperature reduction rule. The present disclosure implements multi-temperature-region graded storage of bergamot pears according to the value of an ice point temperature of the bergamot pears, so that they are always stored close to the ice point temperature without freezing, thereby preventing freeze injury, and prolonging shelf life.

Automated blast gel pack conditioning equipment is provided and includes a housing with an evaporator and heater and defining a void space for containing a set of gel packs, at least one fan for circulating air within the housing such that a path of air flow extends through an air insufflation end to an air return end within the housing, at least one temperature sensor located within the housing, and a controller for receiving temperature measurements from the at least one temperature sensor and for automatically controlling operation of the evaporator, heater, and fans during phase change processing and conditioning of gel packs. A method of phase change processing and conditioning gel packs and a temperature sensor assembly are also provided.

A food freezing apparatus according to the present invention comprises: a transport unit having multiple vertically spaced levels provided so as to continuously transport food; a cooling unit for cooling the food transported by the multiple levels of the transport unit; a pre-freezing unit for pre-freezing the food transported by the multiple levels of the transport unit after having been cooled; a freezing unit for freezing the food transported by the multiple levels of the transport unit after having been pre-frozen; and a defrosting unit connected to the freezing unit so as to remove frost that forms inside the freezing unit.

A spirally ascending/descending cryogenic storage apparatus, comprising a cryogenic storage tank, the temperature in the cryogenic storage tank being continuously maintained at a certain deep cryogenic range. A driving component and a rotating storage rack are provided within the cryogenic storage tank. Multiple shelf boxes can be stored in the circumferential direction of the rotating storage rack. The driving component can drive the rotating storage rack to spirally ascent or spirally descent in the cryogenic storage tank. An access opening is provided on the cryogenic storage tank. The multiple shelf boxes can rotate to a position corresponding to the access opening with the movement of the rotating storage rack. The cryogenic storage tank is a liquid nitrogen tank. Liquid nitrogen is provided at the bottom part within the liquid nitrogen tank.

A system for cooling and/or heating one or more articles such as a tumble chiller is disclosed. The system comprises a reservoir 20 configured to contain a cooling and/or heating liquid 22, and a belt conveyor system. The belt conveyor system is configured in a first mode of operation to cause one or more articles to be tumbled within the reservoir 20, and in a second mode of operation to cause the one or more articles to be removed from the reservoir 20.

Automated cold storage unit and systems for storing, monitoring, and maintaining a supply of temperature sensitive pharmaceutical and/or other products in compliance with regulatory requirements are provided. Such units contain an array of independently addressable holding locations for containers with product in one or more controlled temperature zones fitted with temperature sensors. The units include a reader to track product information and status. Product movement within the unit is performed by a computer-controlled robot. A user interface device, preferably in communication with an application service provider to provide remotely managed inventory management and other services, provides users with secure access to the contents of the unit and associated product data and information.

This document generally describes warehousing systems that can, in certain instances, improve the efficiency of warehousing operations and improve utilization of available space in a warehousing facility. The warehousing system may be implemented in an automated warehouse, such as an automated cold-storage facility, that uses programmable equipment to automate tasks associated with warehousing operations, such as transporting inbound storage items to specified storage positions of storage racks in the warehouse and removing outbound storage items from storage so that they may be loaded onto trucks for delivery away from the warehouse.
