Abstract: The invention relates to refrigeration apparatus such as freezers, refrigerators and bottle/can coolers/chillers. A condenser (5) is normally located on a rearmost side of a refrigeration apparatus. The condenser (5) comprises a pipe (10) for containing a refrigerant, one or more adjacent portions (15) of the pipe (10) being connected by a baffle (20, 25), characterised in that the baffle provides a plurality of wall portions, at least some wall portions (40, 45, 50, 55) being disposed in opposing directions relative to a plane extending between respective adjacent portions of the pipe.

Abstract: A temperature-controlled cabinets, particularly, refrigerators, freezers, fridge-freezers and drinks coolers (chillers) which, in order to overcome the problem of inferior insulative properties of alternative polyurethane foams used to reduce the emission of CFC's during injection and setting of foamed polyurethane, provides a cabinet within which a controllable stable temperature may be maintained. This cabinet includes an inner container (25a), an outer shell (10a), and a thermally insulating material (45a) sandwiched therebetween, wherein at least a portion of a front side (50a) of the outer shell (10a) has a panel (85a) which is displaced outwardly from the rest of the front side (50a) of the outer shell (10a). In a preferred embodiment, the cabinet forms a chest freezer (5a).
