[0029] A cold drink machine with a feeding assembly mounting structure according to this solution. In this embodiment, the cold drink machine is an ice cream machine or a smoothie machine. As Figures 1 - 3 shown, when making cold drinks, the operator first feeds the cold drink raw materials into the freezing cylinder 4 through the feeding assembly 2, and then starts the driver 6. In this embodiment, the driver 6 is a motor. The driver 6 drives the stirrer 8 to rotate. At the same time, under the action of the refrigeration assembly, the temperature inside the freezing cylinder 4 is reduced to the required temperature for making the cold finished product. The rotation of the stirrer 8 ensures that the cold drink raw materials inside the freezing cylinder 4 are fully mixed and evenly cooled, and a cold finished product is formed. Finally, the cold finished product is sent out of the freezing cylinder 4 through the discharging assembly 3. Further explanation, the setting of the driver mounting bracket 7 is beneficial to the installation and fixation of the driver 6. The refrigeration assembly is a prior art structure, and the temperature inside the freezing cylinder 4 is reduced by the circulation of the refrigerant in the refrigeration assembly.
[0030] In this solution, by adhering the spiral fin 50 to the rear end of the freezing cylinder 4 and mounting the feeding assembly 2 on the spiral fin 50, the installation of the feeding assembly 2 and the freezing cylinder 4 is realized. Compared with the traditional installation method of the feeding assembly and the freezing cylinder, this solution does not require welding screw holes on the surface of the freezing cylinder. The spiral fin 50 is adhered to the rear end of the freezing cylinder 4, avoiding the welding gap on the freezing cylinder 4, resulting in the hiding of cold drink raw materials in the welding gap. During subsequent cleaning, the freezing cylinder 4 can be directly washed with water, which facilitates the staff to thoroughly clean the freezing cylinder and ensures the hygienic quality of the cold finished product. In addition, it can also avoid damaging the freezing cylinder, thereby increasing the service life of the freezing cylinder.
[0031] Preferably, it further includes a number of screws (not marked in the figure). The feeding assembly 2 includes a first mounting bracket 21; the first mounting bracket 21 is mounted on the spiral blade 50 by means of the number of screws. In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, since the first mounting bracket 21 is mounted on the spiral blade 50 by means of the number of screws, it is convenient for the entire feeding assembly 2 to be installed and disassembled on the freezing cylinder 4.

Since the first screw holes 500 correspond to the second screw holes 210 one by one, each screw accurately passes through the corresponding first screw hole 500 and second screw hole 210, making the installation of the feeding assembly 2 and the freezing cylinder 4 more stable.
[0033] Preferably, the freezing cylinder 4 is integrally formed. In this embodiment, since the freezing cylinder 4 is integrally formed, compared with the traditional freezing cylinder made by welding a plurality of components, the integrally formed freezing cylinder 4 can avoid the situation that welding gaps are left on the surface of the freezing cylinder due to welding, resulting in cold drink raw materials remaining in the welding gaps, and further facilitating the thorough cleaning of the freezing cylinder 4 during subsequent cleaning.
[0034] Preferably, the feeding assembly 2 further includes a delivery pipe 22 and a first sealing ring 23. The rear end of the freezing cylinder 4 is provided with a first opening 41, and the top of the machine shell 1 is provided with a feeding port 11. The delivery pipe 22 includes an input end 221 and an output end 222;
[0035] The first sealing ring 23 is arranged at the first opening 41. The delivery pipe 22 is fixed to the first mounting bracket 21. The input end 221 of the delivery pipe 22 communicates with the feeding port 11, and the output end 222 of the delivery pipe 22 communicates with the first opening 41.
[0036] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 、 Figures 3 - 4 shown, the setting of the first sealing ring 23 can ensure the sealing performance of the first opening 41, preventing cold drink raw materials from leaking to the outside of the freezing cylinder 4 or external impurities from entering the inside of the freezing cylinder 4. The setting of the first mounting bracket 21 plays a role in supporting and fixing the delivery pipe 22, enabling the delivery pipe 22 to be stably installed on the freezing cylinder 4. Further explanation, the setting of the delivery pipe 31 can convey cold drink raw materials from the feeding port 11 to the inside of the freezing cylinder 4.
[0037] Preferably, the feeding assembly 2 further includes a second sealing ring 24, and a second opening 42 is further formed at the rear end of the freezing cylinder 4; the second sealing ring 24 is disposed in the second opening 42, the driver mounting bracket 7 is mounted on the first mounting bracket 21, and the driving end of the driver 6 penetrates through the second opening 42. In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the setting of the second sealing ring 24 can ensure the sealing performance at the connection between the driving end of the driver 6 and the freezing cylinder 4, preventing the leakage of cold drink raw materials. Further, since the driver mounting bracket 7 is mounted on the first mounting bracket 21, the first mounting bracket 21 also plays a supporting role for the driver mounting bracket 5.
[0038] Preferably, the discharging assembly 3 includes a discharging tray 31, a second mounting bracket 32, an operating handle 33, a rotating shaft 34, a linkage arm 35, a torsion spring 36 and a stopper 37.

[0040] When the operating handle 33 swings upward, the stopper 37 can block the second discharging port 310; when the operating handle 33 swings downward, the stopper 37 can move away from the second discharging port 310.
[0041] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 、 Figures 4 - 5As shown, since the discharge tray 31 is arranged at the first discharge port 12, the arrangement of the discharge tray 31 can ensure the airtightness of the freezing cylinder 4. In the initial state, the stopper 37 completely blocks the second discharge port 310. When it is necessary to extrude the cold finished product, the staff can swing the operating handle 43 downward, thereby driving the linkage arm 35 to move upward, and at the same time, the torsion spring 36 can be given an upward elastic force, thereby driving the stopper 37 to move upward, so that the stopper 37 moves away from the second discharge port 310. At the same time, the driver 6 is started, and the driver 6 starts the stirrer 8 to stir the cold drink raw materials in the freezing cylinder 4. During the process of the stirrer 8 stirring the cold drink raw materials, the stirrer 8 can push the cold drink raw materials to move toward the second discharge port 310 of the discharge tray 31, so that the finally formed cold finished product can come out of the second discharge port 310.
[0042] The technical principle of the present invention is described above in combination with specific embodiments. These descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the present invention and cannot be interpreted as limiting the protection scope of the present invention in any way. Based on the explanations here, technicians in this field can think of other specific implementation methods of the present invention without creative work, and these methods will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
