[0033] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, a specific embodiment of the present invention provides a water receiving mechanism for a cold drink machine, including a motor assembly, a supporting seat 1 and a water receiving member 2, wherein the supporting seat 1 is installed on a box body 3 of the cold drink machine, and the supporting seat 1 is used to separate the cold drink machine into a stirring zone 7 and a refrigeration zone 8 arranged up and down, and the refrigeration zone 8 is arranged in the box body 3, that is, the refrigeration zone 8 is located below the supporting seat 1, and the stirring zone 7 is located above the supporting seat 1.

[0035] The stirring area 7 is provided with a horizontally placed cold drink stirring bin 5, and a stirring component is arranged in the cold drink stirring bin 5, and the motor component is connected to the stirring component in a transmission manner. The support seat 1 is provided with a water receiving part 2 on one side of the stirring area 7, and the water receiving part 2 is slidably connected to the support seat 1, and a water receiving trough 21 is arranged in the water receiving part 2, and the water receiving trough 21 is located below the cold drink stirring bin 5 to collect materials dropped from the upper cold drink stirring bin 5. An external water receiving channel 6 is formed between the cold drink stirring bin 5 and the support seat 1, and the external water receiving channel 6 is respectively located in the side edges of the support seat 1, and the external water receiving channel 6 is connected to the water receiving trough 21 to collect condensed water on the outer walls of both sides of the cold drink stirring bin 5.

[0036] Among them, the motor assembly includes a motor base 4 and a driving motor 41 arranged in the motor base, and the driving motor 41 is transmission-connected to the stirring assembly; one end of the cold drink stirring chamber 5 is installed on the motor base 4, and the orthographic projection of the connection between the cold drink stirring chamber 5 and the motor base 4 is located in the water receiving trough 21, so as to ensure that when the cold drink stirring chamber 5 is just detached, the residual liquid in the cold drink stirring chamber 5 can accurately fall from the connection to the water receiving trough 21 below.

[0037] The beneficial effects of implementing the embodiments of the present invention are as follows:

[0038] The present invention is provided with a water receiving member 2 below the cold drink mixing chamber 5, the orthographic projection of the connection between the cold drink mixing chamber 5 and the motor seat 4 is located in the water receiving groove 21, and an external water receiving channel 6 is enclosed between the cold drink mixing chamber 5 and the supporting seat 1, and the external water receiving channels 6 are respectively located on both sides of the supporting seat 1, and the external water receiving channels 6 are connected with the water receiving groove 21. When the cold drink mixing chamber 5 after work needs to be disassembled, the ice smoothie or liquid flowing out of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 will first flow from the connection between the cold drink mixing chamber 5 and the supporting seat 1 to the water receiving groove 21 below, and in the subsequent process of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 being pulled out, the material flowing out from one end port of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 will gradually fall into the water receiving groove 21 below in a stable manner along the pulling direction, so as to ensure that all the materials flowing out during disassembly fall into the water receiving groove 21, thereby realizing the ice smoothie or liquid collection function.

[0039] When the cold drink mixing bin 5 is in working condition, condensed water is formed on the outer wall of the cold drink mixing bin 5 due to the low internal temperature. The condensed water at the upper part will flow to the bottom of the cold drink mixing bin 5 through the external water receiving channel 6, and the condensed water at the bottom of the cold drink mixing bin 5 will fall into the water receiving trough 21 below to further realize the liquid collection function. The above method can effectively prevent the outflowing material from contaminating other positions of the box body 3, reduce the cleaning process, and improve the user's comfort and the safety of the use of electronic control components and circuits.

[0040] Secondly, when the collection capacity of the water receiving part 2 is too much, the water receiving part 2 can be removed from the chute part 11 to perform the discharge work, and the water receiving part 2 can be reinstalled into the chute part 11 to continue using it. The overall disassembly and installation is convenient, the practicality is high, and the user experience can be improved.

[0041] In addition, the present invention uses the supporting base 1 as the middle supporting structure of the cold drink machine, and the supporting base 1 is used to separate the cold drink machine into two upper and lower functional areas, such as the stirring area 7 and the refrigeration area 8, so that the overall structure is optimized in layout arrangement of the upper and lower functional areas, with a compact structure, small overall occupied space and volume, and low cost.

[0042] Specifically, Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the present invention arranges the supporting seat 1 in the middle of the cold drink machine, the motor assembly is arranged in the stirring area 7 above the supporting seat 1, and the motor assembly and the cold drink stirring chamber 5 are respectively arranged at opposite ends of the supporting seat 1 in the length direction; the motor seat 4 in the motor assembly is installed on the side of the supporting seat 1 away from the water receiving part 2, and the cold drink stirring chamber 5 is located on one side of the supporting seat 1, specifically, directly above the water receiving part 2 of the supporting seat 1, to ensure the collection effect of the material.

[0043] The stirring assembly in the cold drink stirring chamber 5 includes an evaporator 51 and a stirring member 52. One end of the evaporator 51 is mounted on the motor base 4. The stirring member 52 is sleeved on the evaporator 51. A stirring drive shaft (not shown in the figure) is provided in the evaporator 51. One end of the stirring drive shaft passes through the evaporator 51 and is transmission-connected to the drive motor 41 in the motor assembly. The other end of the stirring drive shaft is transmission-connected to the stirring member 52. The liquid raw material in the cold drink stirring chamber 5 is ice-made by the evaporator 51 to form ice material. The formed ice material is scraped by the drive motor 41 and the stirring member 52 to form the desired smoothie. Preferably, the stirring member 52 is a scraper, but this is not limited to it.

[0044] The refrigeration zone 8 located below the support seat 1 includes a compressor 31, a condenser 32 and a heat sink arranged in a box. The compressor 31 is connected to the input end of the condenser 32 through a pipeline, and the output end of the condenser 32 is connected to the input end of the evaporator 51 located above through a pipeline passing through the motor seat 4, so as to increase the refrigerant liquid for the evaporator 51, so that the evaporator 51 can realize the refrigeration function; the output end of the evaporator 51 is connected to the compressor 31 below through a pipeline passing through the motor seat 4, so as to return the high-temperature gas after heat exchange to the compressor 31, thereby realizing the circulating cooling work and ensuring the stable refrigeration work of the evaporator 51. Among them, the heat sink is a heat dissipation fan (not shown in the figure), which is used to discharge the heat in the refrigeration zone 8 to the outside to realize the heat exchange work of the refrigeration zone 8.

[0045] The present invention uses the supporting seat 1 as the middle supporting structure of the cold drink machine, which can optimize the layout of the upper and lower functional areas of the overall structure of the cold drink machine for assembly and application, making the structure of the cold drink machine more compact, the overall occupied space and volume are small, and the cost is low.

[0046] Preferably, the motor base 4 and the cold drink mixing chamber 5 are detachably connected to facilitate quick disassembly and installation of the cold drink mixing chamber 5, thereby improving disassembly and installation efficiency.

[0047] Furthermore, in order to prevent the condensed water formed on the outer walls of both sides of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 from falling from the bottom of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 to outside the area of ​​the water receiving tank 21, that is, falling to other positions of the box body 3, thereby increasing unnecessary cleaning steps. Figures 5 and 6 As shown, the cold drink mixing bin 5 is cylindrical, and the slot width of the water receiving trough 21 is greater than or equal to the width of the bottom of the cold drink mixing bin 5, so that the condensed water can stably fall into the water receiving trough 21 when falling from the bottom of any side of the cold drink mixing bin 5, thereby facilitating the collection of the condensed water to be collected, eliminating unnecessary cleaning procedures, and improving the user's comfort. In other embodiments, the slot width of the water receiving trough 21 can also be greater than or equal to the width of the cold drink mixing bin 5, so as to ensure that the materials dropped from the cold drink mixing bin 5 of different regular shapes can stably fall into the water receiving trough 21, thereby also realizing the material collection function.

[0048] Preferably, if Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, the cold drink mixing chamber 5 has a first guide portion 55 at least at the lower part, and the first guide portion 55 is formed by the two side walls of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 in the horizontal direction extending to the middle and obliquely downward, and the lowest part of the first guide portion 55 is projected in the water receiving groove. When condensed water is formed on the outer walls of the two sides of the cold drink mixing chamber 5, the formed condensed water can be guided to the bottom through its own first guide portion 55, and then fall into the water receiving groove 21 below, thereby improving the condensed water guiding and collecting effect.

[0049] The upper portion of the water receiving member 2 is adapted to the shape of the first guide portion 55, and both the upper portion of the water receiving member 2 and the first guide portion 55 are arc-shaped surfaces, so as to achieve a better guide effect on condensed water. The shapes of the upper portion of the water receiving member 2 and the first guide portion 55 are not limited to this, and can be adjusted according to actual needs as long as they can achieve a guide effect.

[0050] Preferably, if Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the two side edges of the water receiving member 2 are respectively provided with slide rail flanges 22, and the slide rail flanges 22 are respectively in contact with the two side inner walls of the slide groove portion 11. The slide rail flanges 22 can reduce the contact area with the slide groove portion 11, thereby reducing the contact friction, improving the sliding installation and sliding removal effect of the water receiving member 2, and thus facilitating the user to disassemble, install and use.

[0051] In order to limit the water connection part 2. Figures 3 to 4 As shown, the water receiving part 2 is provided with a first abutting portion 23 on both sides of one end away from the motor seat 4, and the upper sides of the through-port 12 are provided with a second abutting portion 13 adapted to the first abutting portion 23. When the water receiving part 2 slides into the chute portion 11, the first abutting portion 23 abuts against the second abutting portion 13, which can limit the water receiving part 2 horizontally inward and vertically upward. When the first abutting portion 23 abuts against the second abutting portion 13, it means that the water receiving part 2 is assembled and the material collection work can be carried out. Among them, the first abutting portion 23 is a first inclined portion, and the second abutting portion 13 is a second inclined portion, but it is not limited to this. In other embodiments, as long as the adaptation and abutment of the first abutting portion 23 and the second abutting portion 13 can achieve the above-mentioned limiting effect, such as mutually adapted stepped portions or semicircular portions, etc., there are no excessive restrictions here.

[0052] Preferably, the water connection part 2 is used to guide the installation. Figures 3 to 4As shown, the inner walls of both sides of the end of the chute portion 11 close to the through opening 12 are respectively provided with horizontal limiting parts 14, and the horizontal limiting parts 14 respectively cooperate and abut with the tops of both sides of the water receiving member 2 below it. When the water receiving member 2 is inserted from the through opening 12, the lower end surface of the water receiving member 2 abuts against the bottom inner wall of the chute portion 11, the slide rail flanges of the water receiving member 2 abut against the inner walls of both sides of the chute portion 11, and the tops of the left and right side panels of the water receiving member 2 abut against the horizontal limiting parts 14. Since the space in the vertical direction is limited by the horizontal limiting parts 14, the water receiving member 2 can only slide into the chute portion 11 along the slide rail direction of the chute portion 11, thereby realizing the guiding installation function of the water receiving member 2, and effectively improving the disassembly and installation efficiency of the water receiving member 2.

[0053] In order to realize the quick disassembly and installation function of the water receiving member 2 and the chute portion 11, as shown in FIG. Figures 3 to 4 As shown, the water receiving member 2 is fixedly connected to the chute portion 11 by a buckle. The buckle method is used to achieve fixed installation and disassembly between the two, which can improve the disassembly and installation efficiency of the water receiving member 2, facilitate user use, and improve the user experience.

[0054] Among them, the inner walls on both sides of the through hole 12 are respectively provided with elastic buckle parts 15, and the two ends of the water receiving member 2 are respectively provided with buckle grooves 24 adapted to the elastic buckle parts 15. When the water receiving member 2 is installed, the water receiving member 2 is slid into the slide groove part 11 along the slide rail direction of the slide groove part 11 until the first abutting part 23 of the water receiving member 2 abuts against the second abutting part 13, at which time the elastic buckle part 15 of the slide groove part 11 will be engaged with the buckle groove 24 of the water receiving member 2, thereby realizing a quick fixed connection between the two; when the water receiving member 2 is disassembled, it is only necessary to pull the water receiving member 2 to separate the buckle groove 24 from the elastic buckle part 15, so as to realize the quick disassembly of the water receiving member 2, thereby meeting the user's convenient use needs.

[0055] Preferably, if Figure 1 , Figure 3 and 5As shown, a mounting groove 16 is provided in one end of the supporting seat 1, the sliding groove portion 11 is provided in the mounting groove 16, and limiting abutment blocks 17 are respectively provided on the tops of both sides of one end of the mounting groove 16 close to the motor seat 4; positioning blocks 53 are respectively provided on both sides of the cold drink mixing chamber 5, and the positioning blocks 53 abut against the end of the limiting abutment block 17 away from the motor seat 4 and abut against the top of one side of the mounting groove 16. When the cold drink mixing chamber 5 is installed on the motor seat 4, the two side positioning blocks 53 on the cold drink mixing chamber 5 will abut against the two side tops of the installation groove 16 and slide along the direction of the motor seat; when the two side positioning blocks 53 on the cold drink mixing chamber 5 abut against the corresponding limit abutting blocks 17 on the supporting seat 1, they can play a horizontal inward limiting role. At this time, one end of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 has been installed on the motor seat 4. The above-mentioned horizontal inward limiting structure can avoid the problem of excessive pressure on the motor seat 4 by one end of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 during installation, causing damage to the equipment. At the same time, the two side positioning blocks 53 on the cold drink mixing chamber 5 also abut against the two side tops of the installation groove 16 to support the cold drink mixing chamber 5, thereby facilitating the disassembly and installation of the cold drink mixing chamber 5.

[0056] The tops of both sides of the installation groove 16 are also provided with raised guide rails 161, which are in contact with the positioning block 53. When the cold drink mixing chamber 5 is slid into the motor seat 4 along the sliding direction of the installation groove 16, the lower end surface of the positioning block 53 will be in contact with the upper end surface of the guide rail 161 to reduce the contact friction between the two, thereby improving the sliding effect and facilitating the user to disassemble and install. When the positioning block 53 is in contact with the limiting abutment block 17, the condensation mixing chamber 5 has slid into place, and the positioning block 53 is directly in contact with the guide rail 161 to support the cold drink mixing chamber 5.

[0057] Furthermore, the inner walls of both sides of the mounting groove 16 away from the motor seat are respectively provided with second guide parts 9, and the second guide part 9 is provided with an introduction limit groove 18, and the guide direction of the second guide part 9 extends to the water receiving groove 21, so as to guide the condensed water flowing on the second guide part 9 to the water receiving groove 21 below, so as to realize the condensed water collection function. The introduction limit groove 18 is located above the water receiving part 2, and the end of the introduction limit groove 18 close to the motor seat 4 is provided with a limit part 19; the bottom sides of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 are respectively provided with sliders 54 adapted to the introduction limit groove, and the slider 54 slides into the introduction limit groove 18 and abuts against the limit part 19. When the cold drink mixing chamber 5 is installed, the sliders 54 on both sides of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 will slide into the introduction limit groove 18 respectively, so that the cold drink mixing chamber 5 moves along the introduction limit groove 18 toward the motor seat 4. When moving to the required position, the sliders 54 all slide into the introduction limit groove 18 and abut against the limit part 19, so as to further limit the cold drink mixing chamber 5 horizontally inward, thereby avoiding the problem of damage to the equipment caused by excessive pressing of one end of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 on the motor seat 4 during installation.

[0058] At the same time, when condensation water is formed on the side wall of the cold drink mixing bin 5, a small portion of the condensation water will flow along the guide direction of the second guide part 9 to the slider 51 and the inlet limit groove 18, and the condensation water located at the slider 51 and the inlet limit groove 18 will flow along the guide surface of the second guide part 9 to the water receiving groove 21 below, thereby realizing a comprehensive condensation water collection function and improving the condensation water collection effect.

[0059] Among them, the width of the chute part 11 is greater than the width of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 and the water receiving trough 21. At least part of the structure of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 (such as the lower part or bottom of the cold drink mixing chamber 5) is located in the chute part 11, so that the liquid dropped from the cold drink mixing chamber 5 can fall into the water receiving trough 21 more stably, thereby improving the material collection effect; when the bottom of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 is located in the installation groove 16, the distance between it and the water receiving part 2 can be shortened, the splashing height when the material falls can be reduced, and the material can be prevented from splashing out of the water receiving trough 21, which is conducive to the smoothie or liquid flowing out of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 during disassembly to fall quickly from the bottom position into the water receiving part 2, and the condensed water formed in the cold drink mixing chamber 5 during operation can fall quickly into the water receiving part 2, thereby improving the access and collection effect of the water receiving part 2, thereby effectively preventing the outflowing material from falling into other positions of the box body 3, reducing the cleaning process, and improving the user's comfort and the safety of the use of electronic control components and circuits.

[0060] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, the present invention also provides a cold drink machine, including the above-mentioned water receiving mechanism. The water receiving mechanism is arranged in the middle of the cold drink machine, and a stirring area 7 is arranged above the supporting seat 1 in the water receiving mechanism, and the stirring area 7 includes a motor seat 4 and a cold drink stirring chamber 5, a driving motor 41 is fixed in the motor seat 4, and an evaporator 51 and a stirring element 52 are arranged in the cold drink stirring chamber 5, and the evaporator 51 is installed at one end of the motor seat 4; and a refrigeration area 8 is arranged below the supporting seat 1, and the refrigeration area 8 includes a compressor, a condenser and a heat sink, etc. The cold drink machine of the present invention uses the supporting seat 1 as the middle supporting structure of the cold drink machine, and optimizes the layout of the upper and lower functional areas of the supporting seat 1 to make the overall structure more compact, occupy less space and volume, and have low cost.

[0061] At the same time, if Figures 4 to 6 As described, the present invention arranges the water receiving member 2 in the slide groove portion 11 of the supporting seat 1 so that the water receiving groove 21 in the water receiving member 2 is located directly below the cold drink mixing chamber 5, and the orthographic projection of the connection between the cold drink mixing chamber 5 and the motor seat 4 is located in the water receiving groove 21, and an external water receiving channel 6 is formed between the cold drink mixing chamber 5 and the supporting seat 1, and the external water receiving channel 6 is respectively located on both sides of the supporting seat 1, and the external water receiving channel 6 is connected to the water receiving groove 21.

[0062] When the cold drink mixing chamber 5 needs to be disassembled after operation, the ice or liquid flowing out of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 will first flow from the connection between the cold drink mixing chamber 5 and the supporting seat 1 to the water receiving member 2 below. In the subsequent process of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 being pulled out, the material flowing out of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 will stably fall into the water receiving trough 21 below to ensure that all the materials flowing out during disassembly fall into the water receiving trough 21, thereby realizing the ice or liquid collection function. When the cold drink mixing chamber 5 is in the working state, the cold drink mixing chamber 5 forms condensed water on its outer wall due to the low internal temperature. The condensed water will flow along the external water receiving channel 6 to the bottom of the cold drink mixing chamber 5, and the condensed water at the bottom of the cold drink mixing chamber 5 will fall into the water receiving trough 21 below to further realize the liquid collection function; the above method can effectively prevent the outflowing material from contaminating other positions of the box body 3, reduce the cleaning process, and improve the user's comfort and the safety of the use of electronic control components and circuits.

[0063] Secondly, when the collection capacity of the water receiving part 2 is too much, the water receiving part 2 can be removed from the chute part 11 to perform the discharge work, and the water receiving part 2 can be reinstalled into the chute part 11 to continue using it. The overall disassembly and installation is convenient, the practicality is high, and the user experience can be improved.

[0064] Preferably, the cold beverage machine is a smoothie machine or an ice cream machine, but is not limited thereto.

[0065] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
