- The present invention relates-to improvements in evaporators for refrigerating apparatus of the compression type. U
Evaporators for refrigerating apparatus of the compressionv type are frequently made of two metal sheets secured face on' facetogether by welding and provided with indentations servin as conduits and as a collecting tankor header for the refrigerant. The welded sheets are as arule so bent that they form aconipartment for J0 freezing purposes, for instance for the reception of ice trays. A suction conduit leading to the compressor of the refrigerator is connected to.
the refrigerant collecting tank orheader formed by the metal sheets. An object of the present invention is to improve the operation and reliability of evaporatois of the above-mentioned titude of parallelqarrangedbranches does not take place at thelowest point of the evaporator.
Consequently, the refrigerant vapors developed to a relatively slight extent at the lowest point of the evaporator pass through all conduits of the evaporator, since, when using only two or a few parallel evaporator'branches, the failure'of one conduit reduces the eflective' evaporaton surface to such an extent that the pressure of evaporation is considerably reduced, thus causing the noneifective evaporator branch to'come again into operation.- This effect does not occur in evap-.
. orators with a large number oi parallel-arranged evaporator conduits, because the failure of one branch to operate does not influence the piessure of evaporation to such an extent as to reestablish the proper operation of the evaporator.
type without incurring difliculties, or additional costs-when manufacturing the evaporator structure. Other objects will become apparent from: the following description.
According to the invention, the indentations and corrugations of the two welded metal sheets 1 which form the main structure ofthe evaporator, are so arranged inthe bent structure that the refrigerant supplied to the lower part of the evaporator is conveyed to the collecting header along a path not extending in the downward direction. This arrangement prevents the .for-
mation of vapor pockets in the refrigerant pas- An evaporator according to the invention may contain a single. sinu'ous'conduit as above described as the only connection between the lowest point of the evaporator to the collecting tank. Another form of the invention is so designed .that
sages formed in the metal sheets. 'As compared with such known types of evaporators in which a single helical evaporator coil is employed, the
evaporator according to the invention presents the advantage that the vaporous refrigerant developed in the evaporator can always easily rise to the collecting header unimpeded'by vapor pockets which may occur inthe said 'coil evaporators.
Another known construction contains a manifold arranged at the lowest pointof the evaporator, which is supplied with refrigerant and j from whence it passes into a header through a number of conduits extending in parallel relation in the upward direction and forming the two side walls of the evaporator. This construction prevents the formation of vapor pockets. However, its parallel conduits are liable tb clog up so that. it may happenthat only some of the parallel conduits are effective in producing cold.
In contradistinction thereto, the evaporator" structure according to the invention is so de-. signed that, the refrigerant passes from the low-' est point of the evaporator to the collecting tank through only one or a fewsinuous conduits so the refrigerant .passes from the bottom portion ofthe' evaporator at first through a single sinuous refrigerant conduit to a manifold and thence through two or more parallel'conduits to the collecting header.
' Another form of the invention employs two evaporator sections each having a horizontal surface for the reception of ice trays. Each of the two sections has a sinuous refrigerant conduit. leading to a common header. The two surfaces serving for the reception of ice trays are preferably so. arranged that they lie at different heights. The liquid refrigerant is supplied from a control valve, for instance a float valve, to the lower part of the evaporator preferably through a short. conduit.
The vaporous refrigerant carried off fro the header through asuction' conduit may stil contain liquid refrigerant together with the entrained lubricant. It therefore is preferable not to extend this conduit directly to the suction 'side of the compressor, butto'interpose. an additional evaporator in which the residual liquid refrigeraiit may evaporate. This additional evaporator is preferably designed according to the invention as a sinuous conduit formed by the abovementionedcorrugations of the sheet metal strucmatic form.

In the accomp nying drawings are shown severai embodiments of the invention in diagram- Fig. 1 represents a front view an evaporator according to the invention, while 'II. is provided in metal'sheets I and l of structionin front view and one of the sheet metal I elements used for its manufacture, respectively.
Figs. '7 and 8 show a front view of a third type ofconstruction as well'as one of its'sheet metal elements, respectively.
Fig. 9 exemplifies a fourth way the invention, also by showing a front view of the complete evaporator structure, and I of embodying Figs. IQ and 11 show the two indented'metal sheets used in this embodiment The evaporator shown in Fig. 1 is made of two metal sheets I and Isecured, face on facetogether, by welding. In the metal sheet i, shown developed in Fig. 2, are formed sinuous corrugations and indentations forming a conduit 3 and a collecting tank or header 4 for the refrigerant. A supply conduit 6 is connected to the lowest point of the evaporatorfor supplying liquid refrigerant from the float valve (not shown). a-a, b-b and c-c denote the lines. of the evaporator about which the two metal sheets are to be bent in order to form the box-like structure of Fig. l. A conduit I leading to the suction side of the compressor is connected to the collecting tank 4. As will be.readi1y apparant, the
refrigerant conduit 3 forms a passage in which the vaporous refrigerant may at all times easily rise into the collecting tank 4 without permitting the formation of vapor pockets. In Fig...1 the collecting tank 4 is. for instance, bent in the upward direction in such a manner, as indicated at 0-0, that the liquid refrigerant entrained into the header] bythe rising gas bubbles may completely flow back into the evaporator winding 3.

The twoembodiments shown in Figs. Ho 11 .are of a type in which two evaporator sections, each consisting of a sinuous refrigerant conduit.
are connected to a common collecting tank 4. each of the evaporator sections having a horizontal surface serving for the reception of ice trays. In the case of the evaporator shown in Figs.-7'=and 8. the refrigerant is conveyed through a conduit 34' to a manifold II, and thence through a straight supply duct 32 to the lowest point It of'the surface for the reception of the upper ice tray.
