    Freezer insert with forced convection
    Field of the invention
    The present invention pertains to a freezer insert with forced convection, for use in chilling foods or beverages, for example, as well as an application for a freezer insert with forced convection
    Prior art
    From US9080807 it is known to have a permanently integrated section for quick cool down in a refrigerator/freezer, where the cooler is placed in the refrigerator, from which it takes in air from the freezer, and at the same time it vibrates the products, where the products can be up to 2 cans or a bottle of wine. Since the cooler is an integrated part of the refrigerator, it always takes up room in the refrigerator, which limits the usable space in the refrigerator. The system between freezer and refrigerator results in a significant pressure drop.
    From US7343748 it is also known to have a permanently mounted cooler for use in cooling down round objects in a refrigerator, where the cooler has a fan and a pipe with holes and a rotor function. The cooler takes in air directly from the refrigerator and has a high pressure drop across the air distribution holes.
    From US5207762 furthermore there is known a mobile cooler, which can cool down round objects, where the cooler has a housing with a fan and a centering unit. The cooler can be placed in a freezer or a refrigerator and cools down the products with the help of the high air speed.
    The cooler is limited to only cooling down one object at a time.
    Purpose of the invention
    The purpose of the invention is to indicate a freezer insert for placement in a freezer, where the freezer insert includes forced convection for use in rapid cooling of foods or beverages, for example, where a high air speed around the objects ensures a faster cool down than without forced convection. Rapid freezing of foods furthermore ensures a higher quality than slow freezing in a conventional freezer.
    DK 2016 70679 A1
    Likewise, one purpose of the invention is to indicate a freezer insert which can be used for various purposes and not just for cool down of beverages, but also for example for cool down of foods and ice, and where the same freezer insert can be adapted to these objects by means of partitions in the freezer insert.
    It is furthermore a purpose of the invention to indicate a freezer insert which fills and takes up the least possible space in a refrigerator/freezer, an upright freezer or a chest freezer or in the home in general, since this freezer insert can be used for keeping other frozen goods when it is not in use.
    Specification of the invention
    According to a first aspect of the invention, the above indicated purpose is achieved with a freezer insert with forced convection as described in the introduction, and as specified in the preamble of claim 1, where the freezer insert comprises at least one compartment, which is rectangular with a length direction, a top and a bottom, a first end and a second end, a wall with an outside and an inside, and where the first end of the compartment comprises a blower and-or blowers and a power supply connection and where the second end of the compartment is open and where the inside of the wall comprises at least one spacer.
    This makes it possible to connect the blower and-or blowers to an internal power supply, for example in the form of a battery, or to connect the blower to an outside power supply, for example in the form of the power supply of the freezer or in the form of the mains supply.
    The freezer insert works like a wind tunnel for the objects, where the air circulation is produced by means of axial and/or centrifugal ventilation, and where the air passes underneath, along and around an object. Thus, it is a forced convection, where a liquid for example changes its density as a result of cooling.
    The spacers furthermore make it possible to maintain a certain distance between a can or cans and the wall of the compartment, so that air can pass underneath, along and around such a can or cans. A spacer can be, for example, in the form of a rib, a projection, a cam or a guide. The freezer insert in a preferred embodiment has several spacDK 2016 70679 A1 ers for optimal placement of several products for the best possible air circulation around the products. The object or objects and the compartment are stationary in regard to each other during the cool down.
    The compartment in one embodiment can be made as a single piece, but it is also possible for the compartment to consist of several elements, where one element can constitute the door of the chest freezer, for example, and/or a part of the top side in an upright freezer or a freezer drawer situated on top.
    The invention thus makes possible both rapid cool down of beverages, but also rapid freezing of foods and ice. In the case of ice, ice cubes can thus be made quickly, and also popsicles can be made quickly by rapid freezing.
    In a preferred embodiment, the freezer insert comprises at least one compartment which is substantially rectangular in a cross section perpendicular to the length direction of the compartment.
    The present invention in a second aspect also involves a freezer insert with forced convection, where the at least one spacer is situated in the length direction of the compartment.
    This makes it furthermore possible to ensure that the air can circulate around the object or objects, and where the spacers in one embodiment can moreover be made antislip with a high friction coating in the form of, for example, a film lining or other surface treatment. In a preferred embodiment, the spacers will be placed substantially in the bottom of the compartment in order to make possible the passage of air, but in other preferred embodiments the spacers can likewise be placed in other areas of the wall, so that objects cannot come into direct contact with the wall of the compartment at any place in the compartment. Thus, with the spacers situated in the length direction of the compartment, a more linear concentrated air flow along the walls of the compartment, and thus a less turbulent air flow is assured.
    In an alternative embodiment, the spacers can be placed in such a way in the compartment that in fact turbulent air flows are achieved, when this should prove to be
    DK 2016 70679 A1 desirable.
    In an alternative embodiment one or more milled grooves in the spacers to enable round objects to be centered in these milled grooves by placing the objects laying across or standing vertically in the compartment to keep the objects maintained in position when the freezer drawer is pulled back and forth in longitudinal direction, and when the objects are affected by the air pressure from the blower and-or blowers.
    The present invention also involves in a third aspect that the freezer insert furthermore contains at least one compartment partition situated in the length direction of the compartment, where the compartment furthermore comprises holding devices for partitioning of the compartment, and where mounting and demounting of the compartment partitions are done manually by placing it on top of the holding devices.
    This makes it possible to partition the compartment into several parts and thus ensure that there can be several objects in the compartment, several objects in a layer, without the objects being in contact with each other, yet ensuring an air space around the objects so that forced convection is possible under all circumstances, regardless of the number of objects and regardless of the number of partitions in the compartment. Because the partition of the compartment is situated in the length direction of the compartment, it is assured that the surrounding medium, preferably atmospheric air, can pass through the objects and thus can pass through the compartment.
    The compartment partitions in a preferred embodiment can likewise contain spacers.
    In this way, several objects can be cooled down at the same time and with the ribs the objects and the at least one wall of the compartment can be held at a fixed distance in relation to each other. The compartment partition furthermore makes it possible to have both standing and lying objects in the freezer insert at the same time.
    In a preferred embodiment, the compartment partition is likewise provided with spacers, so that one can maintain a certain distance between for example a can and the wall of the compartment, such that air can pass underneath, along and around such a can. With the compartment partition situated in the compartment’s length direction a more
    DK 2016 70679 A1 linear concentrated air flow is thus assured through the compartment and so also a less turbulent air flow.
    In an alternative embodiment, the compartment partition can likewise be placed in such a way in the compartment that a turbulent air flow is obtained, if this should be desired. The holding devices can in a preferred embodiment also be created so that the compartment partition closest to the blower and-or blowers can be placed in an angled position. This will enable the entire flow of air from the blower and-or blowers to be directed to the bottom of the freezer insert compartment, which thereby will give the fastest cooling time in the event that there are only placed objects in the lower part of the compartment.
    In a preferred embodiment, the side of the compartment partition is uninterrupted and thus preferably in the form of a sheet, but in an alternative embodiment the sides of the compartment partition can be outfitted with through holes in an arbitrary pattern.
    The present invention also involves in a fourth aspect a freezer insert with forced convection, where the freezer insert furthermore comprises at least one compartment extension, where the freezer insert and the compartment extension have interconnection means.
    The compartment extension likewise comprises a compartment partition in the compartment’s length direction with spacers.
    This makes it possible in a preferred embodiment to place up to 8 standard 33 cl. cans in the freezer insert on which a compartment extension has been mounted, whereas for example it is only possible to place 4 standard 33 cl. cans without the compartment extension mounted. With the compartment extension, it is possible to combine several objects of the same or different size, objects with a greater width/length than other objects, and thus for example ice cubes in bags or trays can be cooled down at the same time as meat trays. Likewise, objects can be combined, such as where popsicles are being frozen and wine bottles chilled. However, this means that the cool down procedure will be interrupted when the wine has been chilled, after which the cool down procedure will continue until the ice is frozen.
    DK 2016 70679 A1
    For example, the interconnection means can be a snap lock, a click lock, tongue and groove, or other type of male and female lock which assures a coupling together.
    The present invention also involves in a fifth aspect a freezer insert with forced convection, where the compartment comprises at least one removable wall part and a sealing edge along at least parts of the periphery of the removable wall part.
    This makes it possible to achieve a freezer insert which is open and easily accessible along the entire compartment, but preferably from the top. The removable wall part can be, for example, a part loosely placed on the wall or an attached wall part.
    When placed in a freezer, it is possible to do entirely without the removable wall part, insofar as the wall part is at the top of the freezer insert, since the missing part of the compartment can be formed instead by a freezer door, gate, or shelf. Regardless of how the removable wall part is placed in relation to the compartment, a sealing edge along at least parts of the removable wall part is a means of creating and providing a compartment where an outflow of air does not occur until the air has passed through the products, thus minimizing air leakage.
    In a preferred embodiment one side of the sidewall can be removable with the possibility of changing the width of the freezer insert compartment which makes it possible for the freezer insert to fit larger objects than in with the normal width.
    The present invention also involves in a sixth aspect a freezer insert with forced convection, where the at least one end of the compartment comprises at least one part of a freezer fastening device.
    This makes it possible to secure the freezer insert at least temporarily to a placement in a freezer or in a drawer in a freezer. The freezer insert can furthermore be lifted by the fastening device, so that the freezer insert can be transported with all its contents for quick catering.
    In one embodiment, the freezer insert can be integrated in the freezer, not taking up needless space in the freezer, since it can be used only for keeping of goods not in use
    DK 2016 70679 A1 for rapid cool down. The area is therefore used for general products, and when a rapid cool down is desired the section can be organized optimally for this by means of compartment partitions, among other things.
    The present invention also involves in a seventh aspect a freezer insert with forced convection, where the power supply comprises at least one battery.
    This makes it possible to operate the blower during the time when the freezer insert is present in the freezer. In a preferred embodiment, the battery is rechargeable and in another preferred embodiment the recharging occurs with the help of a USB charger or a USB cable, or another type of charger.
    There is a risk of the batteries losing their service life when placed in the freezer, but this can be solved in a preferred embodiment by packing the batteries in insulation or drawing on their own power supply, thereby using some of the battery’s own energy to keep them warm and thereby assure a longer service life.
    In one embodiment, where the freezer insert can be integrated in the freezer, the battery can be omitted, for example, and the power supply connection of the blower can come, for example, via the freezer’s own wiring or plug-in in the freezer itself.
    The present invention also involves in an eighth aspect a freezer insert with forced convection, where the freezer insert furthermore comprises at least one of the following: a timer function, an alarm function, a control panel, Wi-Fi, bluetooth.
    In an alternative embodiment, the freezer insert could have in pace of Wi-Fi or bluetooth communication to a smartphone a different unit for control of the freezer insert’s functions.
    This makes it possible to control the cooling time, depending on which products are being cooled, for example, by having a control panel with timer and alarm function. The freezer insert can alternatively also be provided with acoustic alarm or be able to send signals to telephone via an app for use after the cooling time is over.
    DK 2016 70679 A1
    With a control panel, a timer and/or an alarm function it is thus possible to combine and control the objects more easily, for example when popsicles are being frozen and wine bottles are being chilled. Therefore, this means that the cooling procedure will be interrupted when the wine has been chilled, which a timer and an alarm can assure, after which the cooling procedure can continue until the popsicles are frozen.
    In a preferred embodiment, the functions can be controlled from a panel on the freezer insert, but in the embodiment where the freezer insert can be integrated in the freezer this can alternatively be done from a control panel on the freezer itself, or via the aforementioned signal to an outside unit such as a smartphone.
    The present invention also involves in a ninth aspect the use of a freezer insert with forced convection for loose placement in a freezer for use in the cooling of foods or beverages, for example.
    This makes it possible to place the freezer insert loosely in both a chest freezer and the drawers of an upright freezer and to place the freezer insert where it best fits and by possible dismounting of the compartment extension to adapt the size to the available room. The freezer insert can of course also be placed in a kitchen cupboard or the like, when it is not in use.
    The present invention also involves in a tenth aspect the use of a freezer insert with forced convection for direct or indirect fastening in a freezer for use in the cooling of foods or beverages, for example.
    This makes possible direct fastening of the freezer insert to means prepared for this in the freezer. Alternatively, this makes possible the indirect fastening of the freezer insert to the freezer, for example, fastening the freezer unit to a drawer in the freezer, which could be in the middle of the freezer drawer or in one side of the freezer drawer. This will create a freezer drawer which comprises of two or more compartments with easy access from above.
    In a special alternative application, the freezer insert can also be used for warming up of cold products to a higher temperature. For example, this can be done by placing
    DK 2016 70679 A1 frozen objects in the insert and placing the insert in a setting where the temperature is higher than the temperature of the objects, in which case the frozen objects will thaw out even more quickly as a result of the passage of the warmer surrounding air through the frozen objects, i.e., likewise as a result of forced convection. The freezer insert can thus be used both for cooling of liquids and meat or freezing of ice cubes/meat products, and for thawing of objects when placed in surroundings at room temperature, for example.
    It is thus possible to use the freezer insert for thawing of food products and other products, where the freezer insert is used as a fan and where frozen elements are placed in the compartment and where the freezer insert is then placed in warm surroundings.
    In a special alternative application, the freezer insert can also be used as a cooling fan for the placement of already chilled products, such as chilling elements, in warmer surroundings when it is desired to cool down the surrounding air.
    In a special alternative application, the invention can be used for pharmaceutical purposes, for example, for cool down of medicine.

    Figure 15 shows three freezer drawers for the freezer section 30 seen from the first end 6, the freezer insert 1 is placed in the middle freezer drawer 26 in the right side. The freezer insert 1 comprises, in this embodiment, of two blowers 11 which makes the freezer insert 1 bigger and with the possibility of housing larger objects or more objects. The upper freezer drawer 32 is fitted with a number of exhaust holes 23 and intake holes 36.
    Figure 16 shows the freezer drawer 26 seen from the side where the freezer insert 1, as shown on figure 15, comprises two blowers 11 placed in the right hand side of the freezer drawer 26. The spacers 13 is in this embodiment equipped with a number of milled grooves 37 so that round objects can be placed vertical or horizontal across the compartment 2 this will allow the objects to be centered in the milled grooves 37, like the vertical standing can 20. This will keep the objects in a fixed position when the freezer drawer 26 is pulled out and pushed in, in the length direction 3 on the drawer slides 35.
    Figure 17 shows the same freezer drawer 26 and freezer insert 1 as in figure 16 seen from the second end 7. In the compartment 2 is placed a bottle 27 across the compartment 2 and the bottle 27 is placed on top of the spacers 13 with the milled grooves 37.
    The compartment partitions 14 is here placed in an angle relative to the length direction 3, for optimal air flow around the bottle 27.
    Figure 18 shows another embodiment of a freezer insert 1 placed in a freezer drawer 26 with a blower 11, where one sidewall 8 is detachable so the width of the compartment 2 can be changed. The detachable side wall 8 consists of feet 39 which during the fitting is placed between the spacers 13. The detachable side wall 8 is also attached to the freezer drawer 26 in the drawer slides 38 and interconnections 17. This will enable the side wall 8 to be detachable and make it possible to attach it either across or along in the freezer drawer 26.
    The freezer insert, 1 which is shown in figure 17 consisting of two blowers 11, could also comprise a detachable side wall 8 and thereby make a numerous different variations which is not shown in this patent.

    Figure 19 and 20 shows the same freezer insert 1 and freezer drawer 26 which is shown on figure 18, where the detachable side wall 8 on figure 19 is placed in the outermost position in the drawer slide 38 and interconnections 17.
    Figure 21 shows an upright fridge-freezer 28 where the freezer section 30 is placed on top and where the freezer section 30 comprises shelves instead of drawers, and where the objects is placed from the freezer inserts 1 second end 7. The freezer insert 1 is integrated in the middle shelve. The freezer insert 1 comprises two blowers 11, and a detachable wall 8, but in a preferred embodiment, the freezer insert 1 can have three or more blowers to cover the full width of the freezer insert 1.
    In a preferred embodiment, to obtain a faster cooling time, evaporator coils 40 can be placed close to the intake holes 36. Figure 21 shows two evaporator coils 40, where the evaporator pressure can be reduced to extra low pressure and thereby obtain an evaporating temperature of -30°C / -22°F in the time where the blowers 11 are activated and the freezer insert 1 is in operation.
    Figure 22 shows the freezer insert 1 seen from the second end. This shows the differ20 ent parts which the integrated shelf consists of in figure 21. The extra evaporator coils 40, which is shown here, could be omitted so that the freezer section 30 only comprises the evaporator coils which is normally installed in the freezer.
