MERCHANDISER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240016314 titled 'MERCHANDISER

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a refrigerated merchandiser that has two case sections. The first case section has a product display area and an air passageway with airflow inlets and outlets. The second case section has a glass panel through which a product display area is visible. The merchandiser also includes a fan positioned in the air passageway to generate airflow that is separated into two portions. The first portion flows through an evaporator and the first airflow outlet, while the second portion bypasses the evaporator and flows through the second airflow outlet, directed over the exterior of the glass panel.

  • The refrigerated merchandiser has two case sections, one with a product display area and the other with a glass panel for visibility.
  • A fan generates airflow that is divided into two portions.
  • The first portion flows through the evaporator and the first airflow outlet.
  • The second portion bypasses the evaporator and flows through the second airflow outlet, directed over the glass panel.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Refrigerated merchandisers in supermarkets or convenience stores.
  • Display cases for perishable products like food or beverages.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient cooling and display of products in a refrigerated merchandiser.
  • Separation of airflow to ensure proper cooling and visibility.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved visibility of products through the glass panel.
  • Efficient cooling of products with separate airflow portions.
  • Enhanced display and preservation of perishable items.


Original Abstract Submitted

a refrigerated merchandiser includes a case, a first case section defining a first product display area and a first air passageway having a first airflow inlet, a first airflow outlet, and a second airflow outlet, and a second case section having a glass panel through which a second product display area is visible. moreover, the refrigerated merchandiser includes a fan positioned in the first air passageway to generate an airflow that is separated into a first airflow portion and a second airflow portion at or upstream of an evaporator. the first airflow portion is configured to flow through the evaporator and through the first airflow outlet. the second airflow portion is configured to bypass the evaporator via a bypass channel and flow through the second airflow outlet. the second airflow outlet is oriented to direct the second airflow portion over an exterior of the glass panel.
