To provide an absorbing device capable of attaining a higher absorbing capability than that of the prior art.
A plurality of cooling water pipes 2 extending in a horizontal direction are arranged in a chamber of an absorbing device of an absorption freezer. In addition, a plurality of heat transfer flat plates 1 are spaced apart from each other in a horizontal direction while being kept at their vertical posture and then the aforesaid plurality of cooling water pipes 2 pass through these heat transfer plates 1 in a vertical orientation. In this case, a pitch Pd of the heat transfer plates 1 is set to 3 to 15 mm. An absorbing liquid tank 10 having a V-shaped section extending along a longitudinal direction of the upper end surface of each of the heat transfer plates 1 is integrally formed with the heat transfer plates 1. The bottom part of each of the absorbing liquid tanks 10 is opened with two rows of a plurality of absorbing liquid flowing-down holes 11 spaced apart from each other in a longitudinal direction of each of the heat transfer plates 1 at upper positions of both surfaces of the heat transfer plates, wherein outlets of these absorbing liquid flowing-down holes 11 are contacted with the surfaces of the heat transfer plates 1. In this way, an absorbing liquid flowing-down mechanism is constituted by a plurality of absorbing liquid tanks 10 formed for every heat transfer plates.
