Icy Ball

Icy Ball

The Crosley Icyball was an example of a gas-absorption refrigerator, as can be found today in recreational vehicles or campervans. Unlike most refrigerators, the Icyball had no moving parts and, instead of operating continuously, was manually cycled. Typically it would be charged in the morning and provide cooling throughout the heat of the day.
