Abstract: A cooling appliance (1) with circulated air cooling, comprising at least one cooling chamber (2) for reception of stock (3) to be cooled, at least one channel (4) for cooling air (5) and a coldness generator (12) for generating cooling air (5), wherein the channel (4) provides a fluid-conducting connection of the coldness generator (12) with the cooling chamber (2) and opens into the cooling chamber (2) by an outlet opening (6), wherein a jet forming means (7) is provided and wherein the jet forming means (7) is formed by a nozzle element (18) and/or by a spacer (10), by which the stock (3) to be cooled is kept at a spacing from the outlet opening (6), at the outlet opening (6). A precise, uniform and energy-saving temperature conditioning of the stock (3), which is to be cooled, in the cooling chamber (2) is made possible by the invention.
