Fridge Freshener and Food Saver (3FS)

Abstract

Sodium Bi-carbonate, more commonly known as Baking Soda, is a chemical with varied uses in our homes. A few among these, are its use in killing odor or foul smell emanating from food kept in refrigerators and/or closed compartments and also as a preservative to extend the shelf life of food items. The invention titled Fridge Freshener and Food Saver (3FS) is about a gadget to sprinkle/disperse the baking soda in the environment where-in it is intended to be applied viz. refrigerators, freezers and cooling cabinets etc; there by facilitating its chemical reaction with the inside air and the resultant change in pH in turn helping in killing the odor and extending the shelf life of contents/food items stored there-in.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A gadget named here-in as Fridge Freshener and Food Saver (3FS) to sprinkle/disperse the powdered particles of baking soda in the environment inside a refrigerator/freezer/cooling cabinet; there by increasing the likelihood of air, contained there-in; to come in contact with the baking soda so dispersed. It is assembled from two basic components namely a Blower to create pressurized air, and a Bowl to hold the powder of Baking Soda. The two components are assembled with the help of appropriate fixtures in such a way that on its (3FS's) operation, while placed inside a refrigerator/freezer/cooling cabinet; the incoming air from the Blower impinges upon the top layer of Baking Soda and the resultant turbulence causes the Baking Soda particles to fly away from the Bowl and disperse in the environment contained by the refrigerator/freezer/cooling cabinet; thereby improving the possibility and resultant efficacy of the chemical reaction that assists in deodorizing and food preservation. 
     
     
         2 . This gadget can be fixed or just placed inside the refrigerator/freezer/cooling cabinet. 
     
     
         3 . The gadget can be operated Manually or Automatically at set interval and/or time or linked to operation of the equipment it has been attached to, like operation of the door, or as and when desired.
