ABSTRACT:
A cooling disk member (12) for an evaporative refrigerant cooled flake ice machine (10) includes an axial aperture (44), a circumferential outer perimeter (25), and first and second side cooling surfaces (24). The disk member (12) includes two internal refrigerant now passages (20), each of which extends from an inlet port (40) which opens onto the axial aperture, then into the interior of the disk member to cool 180.degree. sector of the disk member, and then returns to the axial aperture through an outlet port (42). Each refrigerant flow passage (20) winds radially through a series of radial outflow passage segments (50) and radial return segments (54). A plurality of reinforcing spoke walls (58, 60) are defined between the radial passage segments to reinforce the disk in the radial direction, preventing bending and warpage of the disk cooling member.
