Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cold drink machines, in particular to a discharging device of a cold drink machine with a sealing structure. Background Art

[0002] In summer, ice cream and smoothies are best-selling products. Besides buying them in the market, people also gradually like to make various ice creams at home according to their own preferences, and household cold drink machines have gradually entered families. The structure of a cold drink machine generally consists of a refrigerating ice bucket and an electric stirring device. When making ice cream, the refrigerating ice bucket needs to be placed in the refrigerator for freezing. After taking it out, various ice cream raw materials are added to the refrigerating ice bucket, and then the electric stirring device is started to stir the raw materials to finally form ice cream or smoothie.

[0003] Then, the ice cream or smoothie is conveyed to the discharging port of the cold drink machine through a series of mechanical transmission devices in the freezing cylinder. During this process, the ice cream or smoothie needs to maintain its frozen state to ensure the taste and texture. At the same time, as the interface where the ice cream or smoothie contacts the external environment, the sealing performance and hygiene condition of the discharging port directly affect the final quality of the ice cream or smoothie.

[0004] However, pollutants such as germs and dust may exist at the ice cream or smoothie production site. These pollutants penetrate reversely into the interior of the freezing cylinder from the material port. Once germs and dust enter the freezing cylinder, they will not only contaminate the remaining ice cream or smoothie raw materials, but also gradually accumulate in the freezing environment and are difficult to be completely removed, thus forming a continuous pollution source.

[0005] The ice cream or smoothie contaminated by germs and dust will not only be affected in taste and color, but more importantly, it may carry microorganisms harmful to the human body, causing food poisoning or other health problems to the consumers. Content of the Utility Model

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.

[0045] The following Figures 1 to 9 describes a cold drink machine discharging device with a sealing structure according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0046] A cold drink machine discharging device with a sealing structure includes a machine shell 1, a discharging tray 2, a discharging assembly 3 and a sealing assembly;

[0047] The machine shell 1 is provided with a first discharging port 11. The discharging tray 2 is detachably installed at the first discharging port 11 through a clamping assembly. The bottom of the discharging tray 2 is provided with a second discharging port 21. The discharging assembly 3 is installed above the second discharging port 21 on the discharging tray 2. The discharging assembly 3 is connected to the sealing assembly. The first discharging port 11 is communicated with the second discharging port 21;

[0048] The sealing assembly includes a first seal 41 and a second seal 4. The first seal 41 is used to seal the first discharging port 11. The discharging assembly 3 is connected to the second seal 4. The discharging assembly 3 is used to open or close the second discharging port 21. The second seal is used to seal the second discharging port 21 when the discharging assembly 3 closes the second discharging port 21.

[0049] A discharging device for a cold drink machine with a sealing structure according to this solution uses a detachable clamping component to connect the discharging tray 2 and the first discharging port 11 of the machine shell 1. This not only facilitates daily cleaning and maintenance, reduces corrosion and damage caused by residue accumulation, but also makes the replacement operation of the discharging tray 2 more convenient, extending the service life of the overall equipment.

[0050] In addition, when the ice cream or smoothie machine is discharging, the discharging component 3 can drive the sealing component to move, causing the second sealing member 4 to open the second discharging port 21, enabling the ice cream or smoothie to be discharged smoothly. Continuing the discharging operation causes the second sealing member 4 to close and seal the second discharging port 21, thereby reducing the entry of pollutants from the second discharging port 21 into the machine shell 1 and contaminating the internal ice cream.

[0051] The sealing component seals the first discharging port 11 and the second discharging port 21, enabling the cold drink discharging component 3 to have good sealing performance, reducing leakage problems during the discharging process, and avoiding waste of ice cream or smoothies. Moreover, the sealing component can prevent germs from entering the shell through the first discharging port 11 and the second discharging port 21, ensuring the freshness and taste of the ice cream or smoothie, and solving the problem in traditional cold drink machines where contaminants reverse osmose into the freezing cylinder from the material port.

[0052] The discharging component 3 includes a handle 311. The handle 311 is connected to the second sealing member 4. The second sealing member 4 is disposed opposite to the second discharging port 21. The handle 311 is used to drive the second sealing member 4 to move to open or close the second discharging port 21, and the second sealing member 4 is used to seal the second discharging port 21.

[0053] The user can directly swing the handle 311 outwards. The handle 311 drives the second sealing member 4 to move, enabling the user to easily control the opening and closing of the second discharging port 21 through the handle 311. The relative arrangement of the second sealing member 4 and the second discharging port 21 effectively prevents leakage of the ice cream or smoothie machine, ensuring the integrity and quality of the product.

[0054] The machine shell 1 is recessed inwardly at the first discharging port 11 to form an annular groove 12. A circular ring 22 is provided on one side of the discharging tray 2 close to the machine shell 1. The circular ring 22 is movably inserted into the annular groove 12.

[0055] The first sealing member 41 is disposed around the inner side of the annular groove 12. The first sealing member 41 is used to seal the gap between the first discharging port 11 and the discharging tray 2.

[0056] By designing an inwardly recessed annular groove 12 at the first discharge port 11 of the casing 1, which matches the circular ring 22 on the discharge tray 2, a tight docking in structure is achieved. Moreover, the design that the circular ring 22 extends into the annular groove 12 movably not only enhances the connection strength between the discharge tray 2 and the casing 1, but also enables the two to maintain good stability during relative movement (such as slight vibrations during the discharging process), reduces the failure rate caused by loosening or misalignment, and extends the service life of the equipment.

[0057] In addition, a first seal 41 is provided in the annular groove 12, which can effectively seal the tiny gap between the first discharge port 11 and the discharge tray 2, prevent the leakage of the cold drink machine, ensure the cleanliness of the production environment, reduce the waste of ice cream or smoothies at the same time, and improve the production efficiency.

[0058] The clamping assembly includes a first clamping block 51 and a second clamping block 52. A plurality of the first clamping blocks 51 are arranged in a ring outside the annular groove 12, and a plurality of the second clamping blocks 52 are arranged in a ring outside the circular ring 22;

[0059] The first clamping block 51 includes a first vertical portion 53 and a first horizontal portion 54 that are perpendicular to each other. The end of the first vertical portion 53 away from the first horizontal portion 54 is connected to the inner wall of the annular groove 12, and the first horizontal portion 54 is flush with the outer surface of the housing;

[0060] The second clamping block 52 includes a second vertical portion 55 and a second horizontal portion 56 that are perpendicular to each other. The end of the second vertical portion 55 away from the second horizontal portion 56 is connected to the inner wall of the discharge tray 2, and the first horizontal portion 54 is flush with the end of the circular ring 22;

[0061] The length directions of the first vertical portion 53 and the second vertical portion 55 are both consistent with the axial direction of the first discharge port 11.

[0062] The design of one-to-one correspondence between the first clamping block 51 and the second clamping block 52 makes the installation and disassembly process simple and fast. The user only needs to align the circular ring 22 on the discharge tray 2 with the annular groove 12, and then gently rotate or push to achieve the mutual locking or unlocking of the clamping blocks, which not only improves the work efficiency, but also reduces the operation difficulty and error rate.

[0063] Moreover, both the first clamping block 51 and the second clamping block 52 are L-shaped structures, which can increase the strength and hardness of the circular ring 22 and the annular groove 12. The first vertical portion 53 is firmly connected to the inner wall of the annular groove 12, and the second vertical portion 55 is firmly installed on the inner wall of the discharge tray 2, which can ensure that the first clamping block 51 and the second clamping block 52 are not easily loosened or detached when stressed. The first horizontal portion 54 is flush with the outer surface of the housing, and the second horizontal portion 56 is flush with the end of the circular ring 22, which can further enhance the strength and stability of the connection, making the connection between the casing 1 and the discharge tray 2 more stable and reliable, and capable of withstanding greater external forces and impacts.

[0064] Among them, the L-shaped structure design enables the first clamping block 51 and the second clamping block 52, when combined, to not only achieve preliminary fixation through the relative positioning of the first vertical portion 53 and the second vertical portion 55, but also form a more stable supporting surface through the mutual abutment of the first horizontal portion 54 and the second horizontal portion 56. This dual effect significantly enhances the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the connection, reducing the risk of loosening or deformation caused by external forces.

[0065] In addition, by rotating the discharge tray 2 in the reverse direction, the first clamping block 51 and the second clamping block 52 are moved away from each other, enabling the staff to quickly disassemble the discharge tray 2 when maintenance or replacement is needed, shortening the maintenance time, and improving the overall usability and operating efficiency of the equipment.

[0066] The discharge assembly 3 further includes a first transmission member 32 and a second transmission member 33. The first hinge point of the grip 311 is rotatably installed at the top of the U-shaped accommodating portion. The second hinge point of the grip 311 is rotatably connected to the top of the first transmission member 32. The bottom of the first transmission member 32 is connected to the top of the second transmission member 33. The bottom of the second transmission member 33 is fixedly connected to the second seal 4;

[0067] In the initial state, the connecting line direction between the first hinge point and the second hinge point is horizontal.

[0068] In this solution, by defining the connecting line direction of the first hinge point and the second hinge point of the grip 311, it can effectively ensure that when the grip 311 is swung outwards, the grip 311 can successively drive the first transmission member 32 and the second transmission member 33 to move, enabling the bottom of the second transmission member 33 to drive the second seal 4 to move, so that the second seal 4 can open the first discharge port 11, and the ice cream or smoothie is extruded from the first discharge port 11 into the second discharge port 21 to complete the discharge of the ice cream or smoothie.

[0069] The handle 311 is swung inward, and the handle 311 drives the first transmission member 32, the second transmission member 33 and the second sealing member 4 to move in sequence, so that the second sealing member 4 seals the second discharge port 21, thereby stopping the discharge of ice cream or smoothie.

[0070] A stable transmission chain is formed by the cascade design of the first transmission member 32 and the second transmission member 33. This design not only enhances the stability of the transmission, but also makes the movement of the second sealing member 4 during the opening and closing process more stable and accurate.

[0071] The transmission assembly also includes a reset torsion spring 34 , which includes a winding portion and a transmission portion from top to bottom. The winding portion is wound around the first hinge point of the handle 31 , and the transmission portion is fixedly connected to the front side of the second transmission member 33 .

[0072] When the handle 31 is swung outward, the rear end of the handle 31 tilts upward, which can make the first transmission member 32 move upward, thereby driving the rear side of the second transmission member 33 to move upward. At the same time, the reset torsion spring 34 is deformed under the action of the handle 31, and the transmission part drives the front side of the second transmission member 33 to move upward. At this time, the front and rear sides of the second transmission member 33 are both subjected to an upward force, so that the second transmission member 33 drives the sealing member 4 to move upward together, ensuring that the sealing member 4 opens the second discharge port.

[0073] When the staff releases the handle 31 and the handle 31 returns to its original position, the reset torsion spring 34 is reset, and the first transmission member 32 moves downward under the action of the handle 31, so that the second transmission member 33 moves downward under the action of the reset torsion spring 34 and the first transmission member 32, thereby driving the seal 4 to move downward and close the second discharge port. The bottom of the second transmission member 33 is provided with a sealing groove 331 opening downward, and the sealing groove 331 is slidably connected to the left and right sides of the seal 4, and the second seal 4 is made of food-grade rubber material;

[0074] The second transmission member 33 is provided with a first sealing clamping block 332 at the top rear side of the sealing groove 331 , and the second sealing member 4 is provided with a second sealing clamping block 42 at the top front side. The first sealing clamping block 332 and the second sealing clamping block 42 are clamped with each other.

[0075] The second transmission member 33 is provided with a first sealing clamping block 332, and the second sealing member 4 is provided with a second sealing clamping block 42, so that the second sealing member 4 can be detachably mounted on the second transmission member 33. When the user needs to clean the device, he only needs to separate the first sealing clamping block 332 and the second sealing clamping block 42 from each other, and the second sealing member 4 can be quickly removed to clean and replace the sealing member.

[0076] The first sealing clamping block 332 is a hook structure with an upwardly tilted end, and the second sealing clamping block 42 includes an elastic protrusion 43 and a hook portion 44, the bottom of the elastic protrusion 43 is connected to the second sealing member 43, the top of the elastic protrusion 43 is connected to the hook portion 44, and the hook portion 44 is clamped with the hook structure.

[0077] It is worth noting that by pressing the elastic protrusion 43, the elastic protrusion 43 is recessed inward, so that the elastic protrusion recess 42 drives the hook portion 44 away from the hook structure, and then the second seal 4 is pulled downward, so that the second seal 4 can be quickly removed. When installing the second seal 4, the second seal 4 is pushed upward so that the hook portion 44 abuts against the hook structure. At this time, the elastic protrusion 43 is pressed and the second seal 4 is pushed upward so that the hook portion 44 and the hook structure are close to each other and are engaged with each other, thereby completing the installation of the second seal 4.

[0078] Handle 31 Handle 31 The discharge tray 2 is provided with a discharge guide ring 211 on the outer side of the second discharge port 21 , and the second sealing member 4 abuts against the discharge guide ring 211 .

[0079] The discharge guide ring 211 effectively guides the flow direction of the ice cream or smoothie, ensuring that the ice cream or smoothie can flow out smoothly and orderly along a predetermined path, thereby reducing the splashing or scattering of the ice cream or smoothie.

[0080] In addition, the close contact between the second sealing member 4 and the discharge guide ring 211 effectively prevents ice cream or smoothie from leaking from the gap during transportation, reduces the intrusion of external impurities such as air and dust, and ensures the quality and purity of the ice cream or smoothie.

[0081] Both sides of the handle 311 are provided with inwardly concave arc grooves 311. The design of the arc grooves 311 can naturally fit the curvature of human fingers, so that the operator feels more comfortable and stable when holding. This ergonomic design reduces hand fatigue during long-term operation and improves work efficiency.

[0082] The second discharge port 21 is provided with a vertical grid. The vertical grid can effectively block large impurities or incompletely mixed raw materials that may be contained in the ice cream or smoothie, ensuring the purity and safety of the discharged material. At the same time, the design of the grid helps to control the outflow speed of the ice cream or smoothie, making it more stable and uniform, avoiding waste or blockage caused by too fast discharge. This not only improves the efficiency of ice cream or smoothie production, but also reduces the downtime for cleaning caused by improper operation, thereby improving the overall production efficiency.

[0083] Example 2

[0084] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: a second inclined sub-portion 59 and a recessed sub-portion 60 are provided on the side of the second horizontal portion 56 close to the first horizontal portion 54, and two ends of the recessed sub-portion 60 are respectively connected to two second inclined sub-portions 59;

[0085] A first inclined sub-portion 57 and a raised sub-portion 58 are provided on a side surface of the first horizontal portion 54 close to the second horizontal portion, and two ends of the raised sub-portion 58 are respectively connected to two of the first inclined sub-portions 57;

[0086] The recessed sub-portion 60 is engaged with the raised sub-portion 58 , and the first inclined sub-portion 57 and the second inclined sub-portion 59 are in contact with each other.

[0087] It is worth mentioning that the precise snap-fit design of the recessed sub-portion 60 and the raised sub-portion 58 enables the first snap-fit block 51 and the second snap-fit block 52 to form a tighter lock, effectively preventing relative displacement caused by vibration or external force, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the overall structure.

[0088] The mutual abutment between the first inclined sub-portion 57 and the second inclined sub-portion 59 not only increases the contact area, but also guides and disperses the stress generated during the clamping process through the design of the inclined angle, effectively reduces the local stress concentration phenomenon, and extends the service life of the clamping structure.

[0089] When the raised sub-portion 58 is completely embedded in the recessed sub-portion 60, a wedge-like locking effect is formed due to the presence of the inclined sub-portion. This self-locking mechanism enables the clamping structure to generate greater resistance when subjected to reverse pulling force, further enhancing the stability of the connection.

[0090] 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.
