An evaporator includes a refrigerant conduit sandwiched between front a rear plates. The front and rear plates have inner flat portions, each inner flat portion of the front plate faces, but is spaced from, a respective inner flat portion of the rear plate to define a respective spaced portion. The front and rear plates further include a set of first protrusions. Each first protrusion on the front plate faces a respective first protrusion on the rear plate to define a respective active cavity. The refrigerant conduit extends through each of the active cavities. The front and rear plates also include a set of second protrusions. Each second protrusion on the front plate faces a respective second protrusion on the rear plate to define a respective passive cavity. The refrigerant conduit does not extend through any of the passive cavities. The location of the active and passive cavities are interspersed and separated by respective inner flat portions so as to define a plurality of ice forming sites.

A device for the application of a liquid fluid to a peripheral area of a lid using pistols for injecting said liquid fluid. The device includes an articulated mechanical device combined with at least two coaxial tubular shafts: a main supply shaft and a lower shaft, where a lower end of the main supply shaft connects to a first part of the articulated mechanical device, while a second part of the articulated mechanical device connects to a lower end of the lower shaft. The two coaxial tubular shafts rotate independently by means of transmission devices. The main supply shaft is arranged in glean inner hole of the lower shaft, which is arranged coaxially around at least one section of the main supply shaft.

The invention relates to a polymer compound for a sealing insert for a container closure, in particular for fat-containing filling materials, which has a composition such that the migration of constituents of the compound into the filling material is reduced, characterized in that the Shore A hardness of the polymer compound is between 45 and 95 and in the compressive deformation test analogous to ASTM D395-97 Method B at 70 DEG C the polymer compound exhibits a compression set of 30-90%.

A sealing machine and method for controlling a sealing machine Includes the following steps: placing capped containers provided with a seal on plates, rotating the plates, pressing the seal against the cap of the container and fastening said seal using a sealing head. The step of rotating the plates is performed by rotating each plate independently of the other plates. The method further includes: detecting at least one parameter associated with the rotation of a plate and/or with a compression load between each sealing head and the seal, and comparing the value of the detected parameter with a reference range.
