A food bar, such as a salad bar, has a cooling system with a refrigerating arrangement, and a cabinet in which pans are arranged. The cooling system is adapted for cooling the food bar such that at least two different climate zones are provided, the cooling of which is separately controllable. The cooling system has one evaporator, a cooling arrangement arranged close to, and above, pan back walls and adjacent a rear section of a covering arrangement adapted to cover pans and so that cooled air flows from a lower edge outward above the pans, and upward in toward an upper edge due to self-convection, forming a first climate zone. Pan holder elements are disposed in the cabinet so disposed that between the pan holder elements and the bottom and lateral walls of the pans, a second climate zone is formed.

The apertures have a constant diameter D, chosen to be a fixed dimension in the range 9 mm-11 mm, that are arranged in a vertical and a horizontal grid. The spacing between the aperture centres in the vertical direction y of the grid is 3D and the spacing between aperture centres in the horizontal direction x of the grid is in the range 2D to 4D, preferably 3D. The specific dimensions of the first section and of the apertures and their grid arrangement is arranged to eliminate hotspots and improve the efficiency of the refrigeration system.

The shelves each comprise an upper placing side 32, and define an individual storage spaces 34, 36, 38, 40. The air duct 18 extends from an inlet 42, 44 to multiple outlets 46 which are in communication with the storage spaces. The display unit further comprises a transparent wall 48, 50, which is positioned in the main chamber 26 between the first open front side and the second open front side, and divides the main chamber in a first chamber 52 and a second chamber 54.

A refrigerated display case (20) having at least one unit composed of a plurality of wall assemblies, namely a bottom assembly (22.3), a rear wall assembly, and a top assembly (22.1), which delimit a cooling space at the bottom, the rear, and the top, and having a cooling unit (1) whose components include at least one evaporator (11), one condenser (13, 13), and one electric control unit (15). An environmentally friendly refrigerated display case (20) is achieved in that the cooling unit (1) includes at least two closed refrigerant circuits (10, 10), which convey propane as a refrigerant and are each provided with a compressor (12, 12), and in order to variably control the cooling output, at least one compressor (12, 12) is embodied with a speed regulation and at least one compressor (12, 12) is embodied for operation at a constant speed.

A refrigerated display case comprising framework having four sides, each side including a C-shaped frame with a rear vertical side strut, a top side strut, and a bottom side strut; the C-shaped side frames are constructed separately and support cover panels of a bottom assembly, a rear wall assembly, and a top assembly, the cover panels being fastened by mounting elements and delimit a cooling chamber, the cooling chamber including at least one C-shaped intermediate frame between the C-shaped side frames, the at least one C-shaped intermediate frame is spaced laterally apart from the C-shaped side frames, the C-shaped intermediate frames each include a horizontal bottom intermediate strut, a vertical intermediate strut and a top intermediate strut.

A showcase includes: a box-shaped case main body sectioned into a storage room and a machine room by a heat insulating bottom plate; article mounting shelves arranged in a plurality of stages in an up-and-down direction in the storage room; a circulating fan configured to circulate air from inside the storage room between the storage room and the machine room; and a cooler arranged in the machine room and configured to cool the air circulated by the circulating fan. The heat insulating bottom plate includes a first air inlet formed in a face facing the storage room, a second air inlet formed at a position that is in a face facing the machine room and does not overlap with the first air inlet in the up-and-down direction, and an inlet flow channel formed so as to cause the first and the second air inlets to communicate with each other.

A refrigerated sales furniture (2) comprises a base (4) provided at the bottom of the refrigerated sales furniture (2); a goods presentation space (10) comprising a front portion allowing access to the goods presentation space (10) and an opposing rear portion; wherein the goods presentation space (10) includes a bottom area (12) located next to the base (4); and a cold air channel (48) located next to the rear portion of the goods presentation space (10) comprising a lower portion (54) arranged next to the bottom area (12) of the goods presentation space (10) and having an opening (18) fluidly connecting the cold air channel (48) with the bottom area (12) of the goods presentation space (10) for allowing cold air to flow from the lower portion (54) of the cold air channel (48) into the bottom area (12) of the goods presentation space (10). The opening (18) is provided as a single opening (18) extending substantially over the whole height and width of the bottom area (12), respectively.

A refrigerated merchandiser includes a case having a lower wall, an upper wall, a rear wall, and a rear panel. A product support area is at least partially defined by the lower wall, the upper wall, and the rear panel. A first air passageway is formed in the case for supplying refrigerated air to the product support area. A fan is positioned in the first air passageway for creating airflow. An evaporator coil is disposed in the air passageway to condition the airflow. A duct is coupled to the rear panel to create a second air passageway.

A cabinet to hold and display a plurality of food items is provided. The cabinet includes a plurality of shelves that each include holding volumes that are accessible via an open front of the cabinet. The cabinet establishes a separate and dedicated air curtain across the opening into each holding volume and the temperature of the air forming each holding volume is separately controlled.
