An improved ice chest and cold plate apparatus for use in beverage dispensers. The ice chest and cold plate apparatus includes an ice storage container having an open top, a bottom, and four sidewalls. A cold plate heat exchanger is affixed to the outer surface of the bottom of the ice storage container with a thermally conductive adhesive. The cold plate includes a plurality of cooling circuits comprising tubular coils extending in a serpentine path and die-cast in aluminum to form an aluminum block. The improved ice chest and cold plate apparatus is simpler, less expensive and easier to manufacture than prior art ice chests with cold plates.
L'invention concerne un dispositif (10) glacière et plaque froide amélioré pouvant être utilisé dans des distributeurs de boissons. Ce dispositif (10) comprend un contenant (12) de stockage de la glace pourvu d'une partie supérieure (14) ouverte, d'un fond (16), et de quatre parois latérales (18, 20, 22 et 24). Un échangeur thermique (26) à plaque froide est fixé à la surface extérieure du fond du contenant (12) au moyen d'un adhésif thermoconducteur (30). La plaque froide comprend une multitude de circuits (28) de refroidissement comprenant des serpentins (82) tubulaires s'étendant selon un tracé en serpentin et coulés dans de l'aluminium de manière à former un bloc aluminium. Ce dispositif (10) glacière et plaque froide amélioré est plus simple, moins cher et plus facile à fabriquer que les glacières à plaque froide selon l'état de la technique.
