HEAT-COOLING HYBRID UNIT FOR COOLING OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC A01J9/04 

FIELD: cooling; storage.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to cooling and storage of agricultural products, including milk, yoghurts, juices, etc., and can be used in agricultural production, food industry and in everyday life. In the device the sealed reservoir is made heat-insulated and is connected by means of the heat-insulated pipeline with the filter and the submersible pump located in the well below level of freezing of ground waters. In the lower part of the reservoir there is a safety valve and a pipe with a valve, which connects it to the cold accumulator through the float valve installed in it. Refrigerant machine evaporator is placed into cold accumulator. Cold accumulator through float valve and valve is connected via pipeline to heat insulated tank. In lower part of heat-insulated tank there installed is safety valve and distributing pipe of warm water with valve and pipe with valve, which connects reservoir with equipment for warm water warming. Float valve is installed on cover of heat-insulated container. In the upper part of the side wall of the heat-insulated container the warm water temperature sensor is installed. Temperature of cold carrier in cold accumulator is controlled by temperature sensor.

EFFECT: higher energy efficiency and significant reduction of power consumption for cooling of agricultural products, reduction of capital and operating costs for cooling and storage of agricultural products.
