Apparatus for frosting drinking glasses

A countertop disposed apparatus for frosting drinking glasses comprising:

• compressor means for compressing refrigerant gas;
• condenser means fluidly coupled to said compressor means for condensing said refrigerant gas into a liquid refrigerant;
• accumulating means fluidly coupled to said compressor means for accumulating said liquid refrigerant;
• metering means fluidly coupled to said accumulating means allowing the liquid refrigerant in said accumulating means to escape through said metering means;
• evaporating coil fluidly coupled to said metering means for receipt of said escaping liquid refrigerant for evaporation to produce a cooling effect, said evaporating coil fluidly coupled to said compressing means such that evaporated refrigerant can pass from said evaporating coil to said compressor means;
• a freezing chamber defined by an insulated upper wall adjoined to an insulated bottom wall by two insulated side walls and a first and second end wall, said evaporating coil disposed within said chamber juxtapositioned to said upper wall and made available to lower the temperature in said freezing chamber to a suitable temperature below the freezing temperature of water;
• means allowing insertion of drinking glasses through said first end wall;
• means for transferring drinking glasses through said freezing chamber for receipt through said second end wall;
• and
• means for preventing frosting along the bottom wall by use of tubing fluidly coupled to said compressor for the transfer of heated liquid refrigerant beneath said transferring means,
• whereby said apparatus is positioned on a countertop for receipt of drinking glasses through said first wall into said freezing chamber wherein said drinking glasses are frosted as they are transfer though said chamber for receipt through said second end wall.

A countertop apparatus for frosting drinking glasses comprising:

• a freezing chamber defined by an upper wall adjoined to a bottom wall by two side walls and a first and second end wall, said first end wall including a means for allowing insertion of drinking glasses into said chamber, said second end wall including a means for accessing said drinking glasses placed in said freezing chamber;
• means for transferring drinking glasses between said first end wall and said second end wall, said means for transferring including a plurality of spaced apart free wheeling rollers having free ends coupled to each side wall placing said rollers perpendicular to said end walls with an angular pitch setting the rollers closest to the first end wall at a higher position than the rollers disposed closest to the second end wall;
• and means for lowering the temperature in said freezing chamber to a suitable temperature below the freezing temperature of water,
• whereby said apparatus is positioned on a countertop for receipt of drinking glasses through said first wall and into said freezing chamber wherein said drinking glasses are frosted and made available for receipt through said second end wall.
