  • Patent number: 8122737
    Abstract: A refrigerating device comprising a tubular evaporator which is connected to a compressor by means of a suction line. A coolant pipe of the tubular evaporator forms a plurality of serially connected tubular loops and one ascending outlet tube connecting the tubular loop that lies the furthest downstream to the suction pipe. The tubular loops have a course that ascends in the direction of the flow of the coolant for a distance that corresponds at least to the length of the outlet tube.
