Abstract

A plant for continuous flow freezing of edible ice products is built up in a freezing section (100) with a tray conveyor (8), the drive chain of which leads trays carrying the items to be frozen from an entrance to the freezing section (100) and around a conveyor support frame (10), and where by means of at least one fan or blower (26), a flow of freezing air from at least one freezing aggregate (24) is brought to pass across the items to be frozen during passage along the conveyor support frame (10). With the view to achieving a maximum speed of the flow of freezing air in relation tot he average speed of the air flow across the items, and compact construction while still providing easy access for maintenance and cleaning, there is disclosed an embodiment comprising at least two conveyor support frames (10) placed at the side of each other, and where the frames (10) in all comprise at least one freezing aggregate (24) and at least one fan or blower (26) for driving the flow of freezing air.
