AI Technical Summary
Existing methods for cooling canned beverages are inefficient and require significant energy and space, and there is a need for a more effective and space-saving cooling method.
Spraying mist onto rotating canned beverages to facilitate rapid cooling, utilizing the heat of evaporation caused by wind in low-humidity environments, and using a rotating mechanism with fixations to ensure even cooling.
Canned beverages are cooled quickly and efficiently, saving energy and space, with the method being adaptable to various cylindrical containers and capable of achieving low temperatures.
Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for rapidly cooling canned beverages. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0002] To quickly cool canned drinks.
[0003] The mist is sprayed onto the canned beverage while it is rotating in the freezer.
[0004] Canned drinks can be cooled quickly, saving energy and space compared to constant cooling.
[0005] It can also be used with other cylindrical drinks and paper cartons (firmly fixed).
[0006] The canned drinks are cooled by spraying mist onto them while rotating them. In low-temperature places, humidity is low, and room-temperature water quickly cools down due to the heat of evaporation caused by the wind.
[0007] The lowest temperature that can be prepared at the time will be used. In addition, the power cord of a household refrigerator (including the freezer) passes through the rubber part. It can also be battery-powered.
[0008] The reason for rotating it is to cool various parts of the surface and to stir the inside. If the axis is perfectly centered, it will not stir, so it may be better to fix it in a way that allows a little wobble.
[0009] Possible fixations include around three points on the turntable, grooves that allow multiple diameter rings to be attached and detached, or elastic Velcro. It is also possible to make the contact area like a mall, so that it can retain a certain amount of water.
[0010] This invention is the result of a comprehensive study of various methods used to cool canned drinks, including temporarily using a freezer, wrapping in wet tissue paper, blowing air on the can, circulating water inside, covering with ice, and rotating the can. These methods can be used as references for design and improvement.
[0011] For cylindrical beverages, the materials that cool the fastest appear to be aluminum cans, steel cans, plastic bottles, and glass bottles, in that order.
