Patent

CA 2471969

An ice-making machine which includes a plurality of heat exchangers disposed inside a housing, each heat exchanger having at least one inlet and outlet to permit circulation of refrigerant therethrough. Each heat exchanger includes a plurality of thin sections of material arranged between a pair of thin outer plates. Each of the thin pieces of material is comprised of parallel flow paths, allowing for the refrigerant to flow through the inlet, then from one section to the next, and finally out the outlet. The arrangement of the sections of parallel flow paths allows for the refrigerant to come into contact with the majority of the inside wall of the outer plates, allowing for maximum heat exchange. In use, the heat exchangers are arranged parallel within the frame, with each side being sprayed with a liquid material to be frozen. A rotating scraping device sweeps across the surface of the plates, removing any ice crystals that have formed.
