VERTICAL EVAPORATION DEVICE

Abstract

A vertical evaporation device comprising an evaporator made of a vertical panel with a grid of dividers and flanges folded on the four sides thereof joined to a refrigeration tube coil on the rear portion thereof and both being embedded in a support framework, which in turn has a water distributor by means of a hydraulic system with three inlet channels which is joined by means of clipping to the upper side of the device.

Claims

1. A vertical evaporation device comprising: an evaporator made of a vertical panel with a grid of dividers and flanges folded on the four sides thereof joined to a refrigeration tube coil on the rear portion thereof, wherein the evaporator and the refrigeration lube coil both being embedded in a support framework, and the support framework has a water distributor by means of a hydraulic system with three inlet channels which is joined by means of clipping to the upper side of the vertical evaporation device

2. The vertical evaporation device according to claim 1, wherein the water distributor includes: a channel intended for the inlet of water into the vertical evaporation device, lower flaps intended to slow down the water speed, a second channel intended to distribute the water in the grid of dividers, and a third channel intended for the inlet of new water for the next cycle.

3. The vertical evaporation device according to claim 1, wherein the refrigeration tube coil is pressed beforehand in order to favour thermal transmission.

4. The vertical evaporation device according to claim 1, wherein the grid of dividers is tilted in order to favour the sliding of the plate when performing the demoulding.

5. The vertical evaporation device according to claim 1, wherein the support framework is made of a series of plastic ends which are screwed to the evaporator by means of bolts.

6. The vertical evaporation device according to claim 1, wherein the panel of the evaporator is made of copper coated with chemical nickel.

DESCRIPTION OF A DETAILED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

[0013] The attached figures show a preferred embodiment of the invention. More specifically, the vertical evaporation device is characterised in that it comprises an evaporator (1) made by means of a vertical panel with a grid of dividers (1a) and flanges folded on the four sides (1b) thereof joined to a refrigeration tube coil (2) on the rear portion thereof and both being embedded in a support framework (3), which in turn incorporates a water distributor (4) with three inlet channels (4a) which is joined by means of clipping to the upper side (1b) of the device.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the evaporator (1) recommended herein will be made of copper coated with chemical nickel.

[0015] Likewise, in a preferred embodiment, the grid of dividers (1a) will determine the size of the ice cubes.

[0016] The support framework (3), will be made of a series of plastic ends which are screwed to the evaporator (1) by means of bolts, and the function of which will be to fasten the evaporator (1) to the frame of the machine in a robust manner and in position; acting as a thermal barrier in the edge of the evaporator (1), anchoring the water distributor (4), and finally, ensuring a uniform flow of water in the inlet of the evaporator (1), in the outlet to the tank and in the rear portion towards the coil (2).

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the water distributor (4) has a channel intended for the inlet of the water into the device (4b), lower flaps intended to slow down the water speed, a second channel intended to distribute the water in the grid of dividers (1a), and a third channel intended for the inlet of new water for the next cycle.

[0018] In a practical embodiment, the refrigeration tube coil (2) will be pressed beforehand, flattening the exposed face thereof, in order to favour thermal transmission.

[0019] In a particular embodiment, the grid of dividers (1a) is tilted in order to favour the sliding of the plate when performing the demoulding.
