Embodiment Construction

[0031] Referring now to FIGS. 1 and 2 in particular, there is depicted a refrigerated cold beverage merchandiser, designated generally by the reference numeral 10, including an interior product display space 100 for holding product 110 to be purchased, such as for example bottled or canned soda, milk, water, juices, fruit drinks, beer and other beverages. Although the invention will be described herein with reference to the depicted embodiment of a refrigerated cold beverage merchandiser, it is to be understood that that invention may be applied to other refrigerated display merchandisers for displaying perishable and frozen comestibles and beverages, including for example meats, poultry, fish, diary products, prepackaged frozen foods, and other products that need to be maintained in a controlled environment.

[0032] The beverage merchandiser 10 includes a cabinet 20 housing a refrigerated interior product display space 100 and a separate equipment compartment 55 disposed separate fr...

Abstract

The interior space within a refrigeration unit cassette associated with a refrigerated merchandiser is divided by a division wall (68) into a first section in air flow communication with interior product display space, and a second section isolated from said first section and in fluid flow communication with the environment exterior of the cabinet. An evaporator module (160) is disposed within the first section, and a condenser module (170) is disposed within the second section. The division plate has a forward portion sloping downwardly from an upper forward region of the first section to an aft portion thereby forming a converging channel. The aft portion extends generally horizontally in spaced relationship above the base plate forming an exhaust channel. A condensate tray is disposed in the exhaust channel generally beneath the evaporator module to collect condensate draining from the evaporator module.
