The world-wide expansion and globalization of food producing entities has greatly increased the need for versatile production freezing equipment that can produce very high quality products, suitable for installation onboard fishing vessels, processing vessels and land based installations in remote areas of the world, as well as more conventional plant locations near industrial centers. Another desirable feature is for the freezing system to provide the refrigeration necessary for the frozen product storage area, thereby eliminating the need for a separate refrigeration system. Another desirable feature is for the freezing system to be containerized and or modular, suitable for manufacturing complete or near complete at the factory enabling easy shipment and commissioning at a remote site. Another desirable feature is for the freezing system to be portable, suitable for moving to new areas as individual fish run seasons are completed, or the harvest of one crop is completed and the freezing capacity is needed elsewhere. Production freezing equipment represents a major investment for most organizations and is therefore important for the equipment to be versatile and suitable for a wide variety of products.
The art has lacked a mobile (i.e., transportable), continuous production blast freezer with a high throughput that meets these needs. Some of the embodiments of present invention meet that need by making high quality continuous production freezing attainable, practical and economical in a wide field of applications, including ship-board freezing, freezing at remote sites, and in other areas where a mobile, high throughput continuous production blast freezer may be desirable.
While some of the features of the preferred embodiment are specifically designed and adapted for use in mobile, i.e., portable freezer application, others features of the disclosed embodiments are capable of employment in freezer systems generally, as will be apparent from the following discussion. For example, the novel evaporator configuration, insulated enclosure designs, trolley designs, and/or automated loading and unloading features can be used with existing freezing systems such as described above.
In one aspect, a freezing system for continuous production of frozen comestibles is provided. The system includes an insulated enclosure having an entrance for receiving comestibles to be frozen and an exit for delivering frozen comestibles. A heat exchanger comprising an evaporator is positioned along one side of said enclosure and extending along the length of the insulated enclosure. One or more fans are provided for blowing air in the insulated enclosure through said evaporator in a manner substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of said enclosure. In a preferred embodiment, the evaporator has a high capacity to depth ratio. This minimizes frost buildup and moisture removal from
and associated frost formation problems. 
 The world - broad expansion and globalization of food produce entities has greatly increased the need for versatile output freezing equipment that can produce very gamey timbre products, suitable for installation onboard fishing vessels, processing vessels and estate based installations in distant areas of the world, as well as more conventional plant locations near industrial centers. Another desirable feature of speech is for the freezing system to provide the refrigeration necessary for the flash-frozen product storage sphere, thereby eliminating the indigence for a separate refrigeration organization. Another desirable feature is for the freezing system to be containerize and or modular, suitable for manufacturing complete or near complete at the factory enabling easy cargo and commissioning at a remote site. Another desirable feature is for the freezing system to be portable, suitable for moving to new areas as individual pisces run seasons are dispatch, or the crop of one crop is completed and the freezing capacity is needed elsewhere. Production freezing equipment represents a major investing for most organizations and is therefore important for the equipment to be versatile and suitable for a wide variety of products. 
 The art has lacked a mobile (i.e., transportable), continuous production blast deep-freeze with a high throughput that suffer these motivation. Some of the embodiments of present invention meet that need by making high timbre continuous production freezing attainable, practical and economical in a wide field of applications, including ship - board freeze, freezing at remote sites, and in other areas where a fluid, high throughput continuous production blast freezer may be desirable. 
 While some of the feature of speech of the preferred shape are specifically designed and adapted for use in fluid, i.e., portable freezer application, others features of the disclosed embodiments are capable of employment in freezer systems generally, as will be apparent from the following discussion. For example, the fresh evaporator configuration, insulated enclosure purpose, trolley designs, and/or automated loading and unloading features can be used with existing freeze systems such as described above. 
 In one aspect, a freezing system for continuous production of frozen comestibles is provide. The arrangement includes an insulated enclosure having an entrance for receiving comestibles to be frozen and an exit for deliver frozen comestibles. A heat exchanger consist an evaporator is position along one side of said enclosure and extending along the distance of the insulated enclosure. One or more fans are provided for blowing air travel in the insulated enclosure through said evaporator in a manner well transverse to the longitudinal axis of said enclosure. In a preferred embodiment, the evaporator has a high capacity to depth ratio. This minimizes frost buildup and moisture removal from
