ABSTRACT:
A freezing apparatus capable of chilling articles to be chilled or frozen by chilling each article substantially from the entire surface thereof through contact freezing for quick chilling or freezing. The freezing apparatus comprises a rotary chilling plate disposed in a horizontal position for rotation about a vertical axis, an annular tube formed of a flexible sheet, placed over the rotary chilling plate so as to be in contact with the upper and lateral surfaces of each article placed on the rotary chilling plate, and adapted to be driven together with the rotary chilling plate about the same vertical axis, and a brine tank disposed under the rotary chilling plate so that chilly brine supplied therein flows along the lower surface of the rotary chilling plate as the same overflows the brine tank, and adapted to be rotated together with the rotary chilling plate. Chilly brine is circulated through the annular tube and the brine tank to chill each article substantially from the entire surface thereof for quick chilling or freezing without causing the article to dry and lose in weight.
