摘要

"APPARATUS FOR THE AUTOMATIC ESTIBA AND DESESTIBA OF ICE GROUND WITHOUT PRE-DRIED DRYING" which is characterized in that it comprises a tank of cylindrical shape, with vertical axis, duly heat-insulated and equipped with an upper cover that has a hopper for inlet of crushed ice as well as a cooling system to keep it inside at the right temperature, whose tank has housed inside a circular frame that has radially some blades, some of which have sharp protrusions that scratch the upper surface of the ice lodged inside of the tank, which alternate with other blades with inclined projections, which in the manner of blades pick up the loose ice and direct it towards the center of the frame when rotating this moved by the gear of a piººn run vertically arranged with an external toothed crown of the mentioned frame, so that by presenting this centrally a conduit that goes through the bottom of the tank and is susceptible of vertical displacement, the exit of the detached ice occurs through said conduit, which ends in a lower hopper from where it is transported by conventional mechanical means to the place of use.
