Beverage display cases, or beverage cabinets, are used in shopping malls or convenience stores to refrigerate and display beverages. In retail outlets like convenience stores, the display logic is adjusted, and smart freezer solutions are also applied to offline sales scenarios. A beverage cabinet consists of a refrigeration system, a lighting system, and the cabinet itself. The refrigeration system comprises a compressor, condenser, evaporator, expansion valve, or capillary copper tubing. The cabinet is made of color-coated steel sheet or painted sheet metal, with polyurethane foam forming the insulation layer. Beverage cabinets are generally divided into two categories: open-case refrigerators without doors and walk-in refrigerators with glass sliding doors. Common sizes include single-door, double-door, and triple-door models, and customization is also available upon request.
When using upright beverage cabinets, attention must be paid to their stability, as there have been reports of accidents resulting in injuries or fatalities due to cabinet tipping. With technological advancements, smart freezer solutions based on artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT) have emerged, enabling intelligent equipment management, automatic product display recognition, out-of-stock monitoring, and inventory alerts.
