    Abstract: Systems and methods for deploying a defrost heater include a rod heater bracket including a body including a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge. The bracket includes at least one L-shaped slot formed in the body, the L-shaped slot including an opening along the first edge, and a groove located adjacent to the second edge and configured to retain at least a portion of a rod heater adjacent an evaporator of a refrigerated display case. The rod heater bracket includes a tab configured to adjust between an open position to allow access to the groove through the second edge and a closed position to block access to the opening between the second edge and the groove.

    Abstract: A refrigerated merchandiser including a case defining a product display area and including an air inlet and an air outlet in communication with the product display area to form an air curtain across a front of the product display area. The refrigerated merchandiser also includes a shelf that is coupled to the case within the product display area. The shelf includes insulation between a top and a bottom of the shelf, and a passive heat exchanger that has a heat pipe embedded in the shelf within the insulation and that extends from a front of the shelf to a back of the shelf. Ambient air infiltrating the air curtain initiates passive heat transfer within the plurality of heat tubes.

    Abstract: A product display is providing having a vertical support and a product basket configured to mount to the vertical support and display product in a front-facing manner in which product from a rear of the product basket is automatically biased toward a front of the product basket, wherein at least one of the vertical support and the product basket are configured to display a particular product in order to improve product pack out in at least one of a vertical and a horizontal direction within the product display. In one form, both the basket and vertical support are dimensioned or sized based on the specific product being displayed so that product pack out is improved, if not maximized, in both the vertical and horizontal direction.

    Abstract: A refrigerated case includes a case body including a top panel, a rear panel, and a bottom that cooperate to define a display space, a portion of a refrigeration system disposed in the case and operable to cool a flow of air, and a first air passage positioned to direct the flow of air near the top panel from the rear panel generally toward a front of the case. A one piece holder is positioned to receive the flow of air adjacent the front of the case, the one piece holder formed as a unitary component using a PVC foam material and arranged to accelerate and redirect the flow of air in a downward direction toward the bottom, and a filter member is at least partially supported by the holder and positioned to receive the flow of air in the downward direction and to redirect that flow into the display space.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a refrigerating shelving unit, particularly a refrigerating shelf (KR1) for cooling and displaying products to be refrigerated in a cooling chamber (KR1M), including an access region via which the products to be refrigerated are accessible, and a refrigerating device (KR1KE) which includes a condenser (VF) and a compressor (KOM). According to the invention, it is provided that the condenser (VF) is arranged at least partially within the refrigerating shelf (KR1) and in the upper region (HR1) thereof and that the compressor (KOM) is arranged within the refrigerating shelf (KRI) in the lower region (VR) thereof. As a result, interfering noise emissions are reduced and, simultaneously, the packaging of the refrigerating shelving unit at the manufacturing site and the transport to the site of use are simplified.

    Abstract: A preferred embodiment utilizes the waste heat from a refrigerant cycle to aid in the removal of condensate from a refrigerated case used primarily by grocery stores. Certain embodiments use a heating element to boil off condensate or a pump to remove the condensate. Another embodiment utilizes a wicking element and a shroud that directs hot air from the condenser through the wick thereby increasing the condensate evaporation rate. Yet another embodiment utilizes the hot gas tube from the refrigeration system routed through the bottom of the condensate tray to pre-heat the condensate to accelerate evaporation. Alternative embodiments combine certain features to create even more efficient system such as a heating element used with the wick system or the hot gas system used with the wick system. In some embodiments, a mold and mildew inhibitor is added to the condensate to maintain cleanliness.

    Abstract translation: 优选的实施例利用来自制冷剂循环的废热来帮助从主要由杂货店使用的冷藏箱中除去冷凝物。 某些实施例使用加热元件来蒸发冷凝物或泵以去除冷凝物。 另一个实施例使用芯吸元件和护罩,其引导来自冷凝器的热空气通过芯,由此增加冷凝物的蒸发速率。 另一个实施例利用来自冷凝系统底部的制冷系统的热气管预热冷凝物以加速蒸发。 替代实施例组合某些特征以创建甚至更有效的系统,例如与灯芯系统一起使用的加热元件或与灯芯系统一起使用的热气体系统。 在一些实施方案中,将模具和防霉剂添加到冷凝物中以保持清洁。
