Igloo began in 1947 as a metalworking shop that produced metal water coolers for blue-collar workers. In early 1960, Igloo merged with the Production Tooling Company, and the company name changed to Texas Tennessee Industries (TTI). The company's marketing arm was the John T. Everett Company, a company from Memphis, Tennessee. [1]
Thermoelectric cooling uses the Peltier effect to create a heat flux at the junction of two different types of materials. A Peltier cooler, heater, or thermoelectric heat pump is a solid-state active heat pump which transfers heat from one side of the device to the other, with consumption of electrical energy, depending on the direction of the current.
A ride-on cooler is a means of transportation that can store and cool beverages and other food products. It is a combination of a low-power engine with a go-cart frame which uses the cooler as a seat. The ride-on cooler can transport food and drinks short distances and can be used in a small backyard, a neighborhood, or at
Therefore, the compressor is uncoupled from the cooler. A system of valves (usually a rotating valve) alternately connects the high-pressure and the low-pressure side of the compressor to the hot end of the regenerator. As the high-temperature part of this type of PTR is the same as of GM-coolers, this type of PTR is called a GM-type PTR.
A water dispenser, sometimes referred to as a water cooler (if used for cooling only), is a machine that dispenses and often also cools or heats up water with a refrigeration unit. It is commonly located near the restroom due to closer access to plumbing. A drain line is also provided from the water cooler into the sewer system.
An evaporative cooler (also known as evaporative air conditioner, swamp cooler, swamp box, desert cooler and wet air cooler) is a device that cools air through the evaporation of water. Evaporative cooling differs from other air conditioning systems, which use vapor-compression or absorption refrigeration cycles.
Slabs of manufactured ice at the Grimsby Ice Factory prior to being crushed, 1990. An icemaker, ice generator, or ice machine may refer to either a consumer device for making ice, found inside a home freezer; a stand-alone appliance for making ice, or an industrial machine for making ice on a large scale.
White Mountain was often called a wine cooler but was more accurately labeled a "beer cooler" by many, as its base was an alcoholic malt beverage rather than wine. The beverage was very sweet and came in strong fruit flavors such as Wild Raspberry, Original Citrus, and Cranberry Splash [ 4 ] that obscured the taste of its alcoholic base.
