Abstract:
A liquid cooling accessory kit for dispensing cold water or flavored beverages from a storage container removably located on a shelf in the above-freezing storage compartment of a refrigerator. The storage container has a secondary cooling unit therein in the form of a roll bonded aluminum plate-type volatile fluid heat exchanger having continuous interconnected flow passages providing a lower evaporator section for heat exchange immersion in the stored water to be cooled, and an upper finned condenser section located in a longitudinally extending passage or tunnel in the lid of the container such that the tunnel inlet receives refrigerated air from adjacent outlet means in the refrigerator fresh food compartment cooling system whereby more efficient and rapid cooling of the liquid is achieved.
