US12551818 - Forced air fog chiller

The patent describes a vapor chiller designed to store a cooled substance in a multi-chamber vessel, where each chamber concentrates the cooled substance at its bottom. A fan directs vapor through the vessel, facilitating a specific flow pattern that moves vapor upward in one chamber and downward in another before exiting near the bottom.

Claim 1

1 . A vapor chiller comprising: a chiller vessel configured to store a cooled substance, wherein the chiller vessel comprises a plurality of chambers, each chamber in the plurality of chambers is configured to concentrate the cooled substance at a bottom of the chamber; a fan coupled to the chiller vessel, and configured to direct vapor through the chiller vessel across the cooled substance in the bottoms of the chambers; and wherein the chiller vessel is configured to direct vapor in an upward direction in a first chamber, subsequently downward into a second chamber, and out of the chiller vessel more proximate a bottom of the chiller vessel than a top of the chiller vessel. a chiller vessel configured to store a cooled substance, wherein the chiller vessel comprises a plurality of chambers, each chamber in the plurality of chambers is configured to concentrate the cooled substance at a bottom of the chamber; a fan coupled to the chiller vessel, and configured to direct vapor through the chiller vessel across the cooled substance in the bottoms of the chambers; and wherein the chiller vessel is configured to direct vapor in an upward direction in a first chamber, subsequently downward into a second chamber, and out of the chiller vessel more proximate a bottom of the chiller vessel than a top of the chiller vessel.
