摘要:
A refrigeration system for an outdoor ice skating rink includes a first heat exchanger that has a first conduit therein and is located outdoors. The first conduit has a first inlet and a first outlet and is configured to discharge heat to the outdoor ambient air. The refrigeration system includes a second heat exchanger that has a second conduit therein, and is in thermal communication with water in the ice skating rink. The second conduit has a second inlet and a second outlet and is configured to absorb heat from the water. The second outlet is in fluid communication with the first inlet via a warm-side conduit. The first outlet is in fluid communication with the second inlet via a cold-side conduit. One or more conveying devices are located in a closed loop that includes the first and second conduits, the warm-side conduit, and the cold-side conduit.

A CO2 cooling system includes a compression stage in which CO2 refrigerant is compressed; a cooling stage in which the CO2 refrigerant releases heat; a CO2 liquid receiver in which the CO2 refrigerant is accumulated in liquid and gaseous states; an evaporation stage in which the CO2 refrigerant, having released heat in the cooling stage, absorbs heat. The evaporation stage has first and second evaporation sectors; a first metering device for feeding CO2 refrigerant into the first evaporation sector at a first pressure; and a second metering device for feeding CO2 refrigerant into the second evaporation sector at a second pressure. The first metering device and the second metering device are operated independently from one another. A plurality of CO2 transfer lines connects the compression stage, the cooling stage, the CO2 liquid receiver and the evaporation stage. The CO2 refrigerant is circulable in a closed-loop circuit.

Refrigeration equipment with a sleeve-type collection pipe for an artificial skating rink comprising at least a refrigerating system (3), a refrigeration liquid supplying collection-pipe (1) and a return-gas collection-pipe (2). The return-gas collection-pipe (2) sheathes the refrigeration liquid supplying collection-pipe (1) along length-wise direction. The refrigeration system (3) is provided with a liquid supplying main pipe (41) and a return-gas main pipe (42) sheathed on the liquid supplying main pipe (41). Both ends of the liquid supplying main pipe (41) are respectively connected with the refrigeration liquid supplying collection-pipe (1) and the output end of the refrigeration system (3), and both ends of the return-gas main pipe (42) are respectively connected with the return-gas collection-pipe (2) and the input end of the refrigeration system (3). Multiple groups of circulation pipes (6, 7) arranged in rows are juxtaposed at both sides of the return-gas collection-pipe (2) along the lateral direction.
摘要:
An ice maker for creating a layer of ice on a cooled surface, is disclosed. The ice maker has a source of de-gassed water, which may be de-gassed by being heated. A pump to pressurize the de-gassed water is provided and the water is passed to a sprayer hydraulically connected to the pump. The sprayer has nozzles sized and shaped to convert the pressurized water into a fine de-gassing droplet spray directed at the cooled surface. The droplets are sized to substantially freeze on contact with the cooled surface. In one embodiment a microprocessor is provided to change the volume sprayed according to the speed of the ice maker to ensure an even coat of ice is layed down.
摘要:
The invention relates to a mobile heat exchanger, comprising: at least one assembly of at least two generally rigid pipes for transport of a first medium, and a coupling element which interconnects the two pipes, and feed means and discharge means connected to the assembly for feeding and discharging of the first medium, respectively, the first medium being adapted for heating or cooling of a second medium surrounding the assembly. The invention also relates to an assembly for use in such a mobile heat exchanger. De invention furthermore relates to a system for providing a skating rink having such a mobile heat exchanger.

The invention is an insulation system that enables the ice sheet of a skating rink to be economically established and maintained outdoors even at relatively high ambient temperatures. A part of the insulation system is a removable cover member that can be raised and lowered. The cover is raised to allow access to the ice and can serve much as a patio cover in this position. In the lowered position the cover forms a surface similar to a deck attached to a domestic dwelling and enables the area occupied by the ice rink to be used for other purposes when it is not being used for ice-related activities. The embodiment described is directed to residential use outdoor. The invention can be adapted for commercial use and for indoor use.
