ABSTRACT:
A fruit refrigerating device includes a cylindrical hopper receiving fruits and provided with an axially disposed rotatable worm which moves the fruits through the hopper and a cooling unit for cooling a liquid which fills the hopper and cools the fruits. An automatic depitting machine is connected to the cylindrical hopper for receiving chilled fruits therefrom and depitting the fruits. The fruit receiving hopper has two spaced-apart nozzles, through one of which fruits are fed into the hopper, and the other of which serves to discharge the fruits from the hopper and is connected to a hopper of the automatic depitting machine. Control elements are provided in the fruit refrigerating device to control the level of fruits in the fruit feeding nozzle to prevent feeding of fruits into the cylindrical hopper when the fruit level in the feeding nozzle attains its maximal value.
