Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of ice crushers, and more particularly to an aseptic ice crusher. Background Art

[0002] During cardiac surgery, to reduce organ metabolism and myocardial oxygen consumption, most surgeries require lowering body temperature with the assistance of systemic circulation. Currently, there are two main methods for lowering body temperature: indirect cooling through systemic circulation devices; and direct cooling by the surgeon placing sterile ice chips around the heart on the operating table. Currently, most hospitals produce ice chips for cardiac surgery using two main methods: freezing sterile saline solution, which is then shaved with a scalpel by a nurse who washes their hands during surgery; and using an ice machine. The former method is not only inefficient but also dangerous, posing a high risk of accidental injury. Furthermore, the manually shaved ice chips vary in size and often contain sharp, lumpy chunks, making them unsuitable for intraoperative use. The latter method takes a long time to produce, requiring the ice maker to constantly stir the ice, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and can easily contaminate the ice if not handled with care. To facilitate the rapid production of sterile ice chips that meet requirements during cardiac surgery, a device that can quickly produce sterile ice chips is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a sterile ice crushing machine.

[0004] The present invention aims to solve the problems existing in the existing ice making method.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention and its beneficial effects are as follows:

[0006] A sterile ice crusher includes a base, an ice crushing box, and a transmission mechanism. The base includes a power module; the ice crushing box includes a box body; a cover body that cooperates with the box body; and an ice crushing blade installed in the box body. The ice crushing blade includes a rotating shaft that is coaxially connected to a second transmission member; a connecting plate that is fixed to the top of the rotating shaft; a scraper that is fixed perpendicularly to the connecting plate, the distance between the end of the scraper away from the rotating shaft and the rotating shaft being greater than the distance between the end of the scraper closer to the rotating shaft, and the scraper is used to scrape ice cubes in the box body toward the axis of the rotating shaft; and a blade that is fixed to the rotating shaft at intervals and is provided with an ice-breaking blade. The transmission mechanism includes a first transmission member that is connected to the output end of the power module; and a second transmission member that cooperates with the first transmission member, is connected to the box body, and is connected to the ice crushing blade. The power device drives the ice crusher to rotate through the transmission mechanism and crushes the ice cubes in the ice crushing box.

[0007] As a further improvement, one end of the scraper away from the rotating shaft is close to the inner wall of the box body.

[0008] As a further improvement, the ice-breaking blade is a raised portion spaced apart on one side of the blade close to the scraper.

[0009] As a further improvement, the installation directions of adjacent blades are consistent.

[0010] As a further improvement, a fixing mechanism is further included, which includes: a first clamping portion, which is connected to the base; a second clamping portion, which cooperates with the first clamping portion and is connected to the box body.

[0011] As a further improvement, the fixing mechanism further includes a sensor, which is provided on the first clamping portion. When the first clamping portion cooperates with the second clamping portion, the second clamping portion triggers the sensor.

[0013] As a further improvement, the device further comprises an outer cover, which is connected to the base, and the outer cover and the base form a closed space, and the crushed ice box is located in the closed space.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0015] The ice crusher adopts a combination of a rotating shaft, a scraper and a blade. The rotating shaft drives the scraper to rotate, scraping the ice cubes in the box toward the rotating shaft, and the ice cubes are crushed by the blade. Since the side of the scraper away from the rotating shaft is close to the inner wall of the box, the step of manually stirring the ice cubes in the middle is eliminated, thereby realizing aseptic and safe production of crushed ice. The combination of the base, transmission mechanism and ice crushing box realizes automatic ice crushing and improves the ice crushing efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the invention for which protection is sought, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] In the description of the present invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance or implicitly specify the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an aseptic ice crusher includes a base 1, an ice crushing box 2, and a transmission mechanism 3. The base 1 includes a power module 11; the ice crushing box 2 includes a box body 21; a cover 22 that cooperates with the box body 21; and ice crushing blades 23 installed in the box body 21. The transmission mechanism 3 includes a first transmission member 31 connected to the output end of the power module 11; and a second transmission member 32 that cooperates with the first transmission member 31, is connected to the box body 21, and is also connected to the ice crushing blades 23. The power device drives the ice crushing blades 23 to rotate through the transmission mechanism 3, crushing the ice in the ice crushing box 2. The ice crushing knife 23 adopts a combination of a rotating shaft 231, a scraper 233 and a blade 234. The rotating shaft 231 drives the scraper 233 to rotate, scraping the ice cubes in the box body 21 toward the rotating shaft 231, and the ice cubes are crushed by the blade 234; because the side of the scraper 233 away from the rotating shaft 231 is close to the inner wall of the box body 21, the step of manually stirring the ice cubes in the middle is eliminated, thereby realizing aseptic and safe production of crushed ice; the combination of the base 1, the transmission mechanism 3 and the ice crushing box 2 is adopted to realize automatic ice crushing and improve the ice crushing efficiency.

[0033] Reference Figures 6 and 7As shown, the ice crushing blade 23 includes: a rotating shaft 231, which is coaxially connected to the second transmission member 32; a connecting plate 232, which is fixed to the top of the rotating shaft 231; a scraper 233, which is vertically fixed to the connecting plate 232, and the distance between the end of the scraper 233 away from the rotating shaft 231 and the rotating shaft 231 is greater than the distance between the end of the scraper 233 close to the rotating shaft 231 and the rotating shaft 231, and the scraper 233 is used to scrape the ice cubes in the box body 21 toward the axial direction of the rotating shaft 231; a blade 234, which is fixed to the rotating shaft 231 at intervals, and an ice-breaking blade 2341 is provided on the blade 234. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, when the ice crusher 23 rotates, the scraper 233 scrapes the ice cubes in the box body 21 toward the rotating shaft 231, and the blade 234 crushes the ice cubes. The directions of the ice-breaking blades 2341 distributed on both sides of the rotating shaft 231 are inconsistent, so that the ice-breaking blades 2341 contact the ice cubes, thereby improving the ice-breaking efficiency.

[0034] Reference Figure 7 As shown, the end of the scraper 233 away from the rotating shaft 231 is close to the inner wall of the box body 21, so that all ice cubes in the box body 21 can be scraped by the scraper 233, reducing the dead angle of ice breaking.

[0035] Reference Figure 6 As shown, the ice-breaking blade 2341 is a raised portion spaced apart on one side of the blade 234 close to the scraper 233 , which reduces the contact area between the ice cube and the raised portion when they come into instantaneous contact, thereby enhancing the ice-breaking effect.

[0036] Reference Figures 6 and 7 As shown, the installation directions of adjacent blades 234 are consistent, so that when breaking large blocks of ice, the blades 234 can share a certain amount of force more evenly, avoiding that some blades 234 are easily damaged due to the installation direction.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, an aseptic ice crusher also includes a fixing mechanism 4, which includes: a first clamping portion 41, which is connected to the base 1; a second clamping portion 42, which cooperates with the first clamping portion 41 and is connected to the box body 21.

[0038] Reference Figure 2As shown, the fixing mechanism 4 further includes a sensor 43, which is provided on the first clamping portion 41. When the first clamping portion 41 is engaged with the second clamping portion 42, the second clamping portion 42 triggers the sensor 43. The sensor 43 is a travel switch.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the aseptic ice crusher further includes an outer cover 5, which is connected to the base 1. The outer cover 5 and the base 1 form a closed space, and the ice crushing box 2 is located in the closed space. The outer cover 5 is made of sound-insulating material, and the arrangement of the outer cover 5 reduces the noise generated during the ice crushing process.

[0040] It should be noted that the crushed ice box 2 is made of a material that is resistant to high temperature and high pressure repeated sterilization. Before use, the crushed ice box 2 needs to be placed in a sterilization device for sterilization.

[0041] The working principle of the aseptic ice crusher provided by the present invention is:

[0042] After the ice crushing box 2 is disinfected, the first clamping portion 41 is matched with the second clamping portion 42 and the sensor 43 is triggered, and the ice crushing box 2 is fixed to the base 1 through the fixing mechanism 4; ice cubes are poured into the box body 21, the cover body 22 is covered on the box body 21, and the outer cover 5 is connected to the base 1 to turn on the ice crusher; the power module 11 drives the ice crushing knife 23 to rotate through the transmission mechanism 3, and the scraper 233 scrapes the ice cubes in the box body 21 toward the rotating shaft 231, and the blade 234 crushes the ice cubes. The size of the processed ice cubes is controlled by adjusting the rotation speed of the power module 11, and finally sterile crushed ice is obtained.

[0043] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that any modifications and equivalent substitutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
