It has been foui-icl that in the use of refri-erators of this type, there exists a tendeiic37 to pile and arrange the g6ods on the (lisl)la), shelves in such a manner that the 3 r) cir,,iilation of air throu(yh the show-case, an(-l ,@iai.-ticul,,trly@ tl-,e return passaue, of the Lir al.- tho top of the case, is seriously affected even to the extent, at times, of being entirely shut off. 4 40 This ilivention has aiiiong its objects, therefore, to effectuall@T proa,ide a-ainst intei-ference @vith the c . i rcul,,ttion a the ,tir througli the shoA-,v-case a,,id to iiistire a free i-etui-i-i passage oL the w,,trm ai-r above th(l, 45 goods to the refriyeraiit. A further object of the :invention is to, proa-ide against the formation of dead air sp,,Lces or pookelts, particularl3, at the ends ,@ind corners of the c@se, tlius to i@nstilre pi-op(@- t5o cir,.til,,ttion of the air and its freedlom froiyi ed.dy current. FLirther objects of the invention are to genera).I-,y improve and -siniplify the colastruetion aiid operation of a refrigerator of the ty queqtion. 55 W'iltnh the above and other objects i.n view. the invention col-.Iiprises the novel features of construction aiid combination of parts more full hereinafter described. ityis proposed to employ as a refrigerant, 60 lt mixture of cracked ice aiid salt, because of the l@:noNA,n properties of such a mixture to produce, Nvith a miiiimuiii quantity of ice, i niaxiii-iui-ii degree of refrigeration, that isi lowering of temperature, a iiiaxinium com- 65 par,@iti-ve with the an-IoLint of ice used, In the accompany,ing dra-wiiils Fl igtire I is a side elevation of a shoivetise refri(@erator emboclying the invention; Figure 2 is a vertical sectioii taken cen- 70 trally ailcl loiigitlidiiially therethroligh; Figtire 3 is a cross section talten o@ the line 3--3, of Fig. 2, and sho-wing parts on aii enlai,ged scale; and, Fiure 4 is a simil-,ir view taken on the 75 li.ne 4-1 of FiLr. 2. .
