[0043] In this embodiment, the installation assembly includes a cup holder 61, a spring 62, a main frame buckle 63, and a cup buckle 64.

The safety interlock switch 7 is used to control the operation of the refrigeration system, the ice scraping system and the water pumping system in the machine; when the smoothie cup 45 is removed, the three functional systems of this embodiment cannot work.
[0046] In this embodiment, the ice making process is as follows: first, the compressor 31, the steam generator 23, the solenoid valve water pump 24, and the ice scraping motor 44 are respectively started, the steam generator 23 receives the liquid delivered by the water tank 21, and then the steam generator 23 converts the water into steam, and then the solenoid valve water pump 24 sucks the steam into the water pipe 22, and finally delivers it to the smoothie cup 45; The compressor 31 converts the high-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant into a high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant, and then transports the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant to the condenser 32. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant in the condenser 32 releases heat into the shell 1 and converts it into a low-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant. The heat released by the condenser 32 is sent away by the cooling fan and the heat dissipation fan 11 in the shell 1. The low-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant enters the throttle valve, and the throttle valve converts the low-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant into a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant, and then transports the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant to the refrigeration pipe 412 of the ice-making part 411. Finally, the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant in the refrigeration pipe 412 absorbs the heat in the smoothie cup 45 and the ice-making cup 41 to form a high-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant, so that the smoothie cup 45 and the ice-making cup 41 are cooled, the steam in the smoothie cup 45 and the ice-making cup 41 is cooled, and ice is formed on the outer wall and the inner wall of the ice-making part 411. The high-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant passes through the drying filter 33 and is transported back to the compressor 31.
[0047] When the outer wall and the inner wall of the ice-making part 411 form smoothies, the ice-scraping motor 44 drives the connecting shaft 421 to rotate, thereby driving the outer scraper 42 and the inner scraper 43 to rotate synchronously, so that the outer scraper 42 scrapes the smoothies on the outer wall of the ice-making part 411, and the inner scraper 42 scrapes the smoothies on the inner wall of the ice-making part 411. After being scraped off, the smoothies fall into the smoothie cup 45 for storage.
[0048] When it is necessary to output the iced smoothie, the container filled with ice is placed directly below the ice outlet cover 57, and the handle 51 is simply pulled to swing downward, so as to pull the swing rod 56 to swing upward, thereby pulling the pressing block 55 to swing upward, so that the blocking block 551 moves with the pressing block 55 to open the ice outlet 451, so that the iced smoothie is output from the ice outlet 451, and after being guided by the ice outlet cover 57, it falls from the ice outlet cover 57 to be collected in the container filled with ice.
[0049] In this embodiment, when the smoothie cup 45 needs to be removed, it is only necessary to push the smoothie cup 45 toward the inside of the shell 1 to drive the cup holder 51 to move toward the inside of the shell 1, compress the spring 52, and separate the cup buckle 64 from the main frame buckle 63. At this time, the smoothie cup 45 can be removed.
[0050] In this embodiment, a sensor is disposed in the ice-making cup 41 , and the sensor is used to detect the temperature in the ice-making cup 41 .
