Who invented the mortuary refrigerator?

The mortuary refrigerator, designed to preserve deceased bodies, was invented by Dr. Frederick Ruysch in the 18th century, who is often regarded as a pioneer in the field of embalming and preservation techniques. However, the modern mortuary refrigerator, as we know it today, was developed later, with significant contributions from various inventors and improvements in refrigeration technology throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. The exact inventor of the contemporary model is not definitively attributed to a single individual.
