Stoppering tray vacuum freeze dryer

This vacuum freeze dryer relates generally to freeze drying equipment and, more particularly, to a freeze dryer which is provided with a mechanism for placing stoppers in vials subsequent to the drying step and before the vacuum conditions have been terminated

Freeze drying is a technique well known to those skilled in the art for preserving both plant and animal biological materials. For relatively small production or laboratory requirements, so-called “stoppering tray dryers” have long been in use. These units are normally relatively small and are designed to grain dryer and stopper a large number of small vials or other “laboratory size” vessels. It is known in the art to utilize movable shelves inside of a spray dryer along with an inflatable bladder which raises one or more shelves until the stoppers on the vials of the shelf being raised contact the horizontal shelf or frame section immediately above it thus forcing the stoppers into sealing relationship with the vial.

Stoppering tray dryers have heretofore encountered the problem that, when the shelves are raised, it is not always possible to keep the shelf in a horizontal plane. This may cause one or more vials to tip over or, if a vial is already tipped over, damage to the shelf or other vials may occur because of the unequal forces applied to the shelf when the inflatable bladder is actuated.

It is, therefore, a primary object of the present coffee processing equipment to provide a refrigeration unit which is particularly applicable, though not limited, to freeze dryers wherein the volume of refrigerant passing through the evaporator may be reduced when cooling requirements are less thereby reducing the load on the compressor so as to lengthen the life of the compressor and reduce energy requirements.

A further aim of the food drying equipment is to provide an improved door construction for a stoppering tray dryer wherein the door moves away from the adjacent sealing strip during opening so as to preclude damage to the seal by repeated opening and closing of the door.
