Background Art

[0002] Unmanned beverages have increasingly appeared in real-life scenarios, with unmanned vending and robot vending increasingly replacing manual labor in coffee shops and tea shops. The presentation of beverages such as coffee and tea, including the presentation of iced beverages, ice-making efficiency, and ice storage, greatly affects the sales efficiency of unmanned vending scenarios and the user experience of beverage machine equipment.

[0003] At present, the ice-making machines used by unmanned vending robots to make drinks are usually desktop ice-making machines, with an ice storage capacity of 3.5 to 5 kg, which can only meet the output of 20 to 30 cups during peak hours.

[0004] However, as unmanned vending machines have been increasingly recognized and accepted by customers, the number of consumers during peak hours has also increased. At present, when there are many orders for ice drinks and ice drinks are ordered in batches within an hour, the ice-making efficiency and ice storage capacity of existing ice machines are obviously insufficient, and the ice-making time will be greatly extended, resulting in low customer experience in the efficiency of ice-making.

[0005] In addition, different customers require different types of ice drinks, and have different requirements for the shape and size of ice particles. However, existing unmanned beverage ice makers can usually only produce ice particles of a single shape, and cannot take into account the scene requirements of multiple ice particles at the same time, and the applicable scenarios are relatively monotonous. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to propose a large-volume ice-making mechanism and an implementation method suitable for unmanned scenes, adopt a large-volume, multi-shape ice particle design, increase the ice storage space, meet a large number of multi-shape ice making needs, and be suitable for a large number of ice cubes in a variety of scenes. Production efficiency and completion effect of ice drinks are improved, and customers' use experience of the efficiency and effect of ice drink production is enhanced; adopt high-efficiency refrigeration technology with fast refrigeration speed and high efficiency, and can produce a large number of ice particles in a short time, thereby increasing ice making efficiency; the control system is simple and convenient to operate, and the user only needs to set the parameters, and the ice-making mechanism can run automatically; the control system is equipped with complete safety protection measures to ensure the safe operation of the ice-making mechanism equipment; and adopts high-efficiency and energy-saving compressors and refrigerants to reduce energy consumption and reduce pollution to the environment.

[0049] The refrigeration system includes: a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve and an evaporator connected in sequence. The power of the compressor is 500W and the ice production capacity is 60kg / d.

[0050] When the refrigeration system is working, the refrigerant in the refrigeration system will circulate continuously. The compressor compresses the refrigerant into high-temperature and high-pressure gas, and then cools it through the condenser. After cooling through the condenser, it becomes a high-pressure liquid, and then it is reduced in pressure through the expansion valve to become a low-temperature and low-pressure liquid, and enters the evaporator to absorb heat.

At this time, the temperature inside the ice-making container gradually decreases and remains at the freezing temperature, so that the drinking water flowing into the ice-making container is cooled and frozen. The use of high-efficiency and energy-saving compressors and environmentally friendly refrigerants reduces energy consumption and reduces pollution to the environment.

[0051] The water supply system includes a water tank, a water pump, and a pipeline. The output end of the water tank is connected to a pipeline, which extends to the ice-making container, and the water pump is set in the middle of the pipeline. The water tank stores enough drinking water, and the water pump transports the drinking water to the ice-making container to ensure a stable water supply during the ice-making process.

[0052] The control system includes: a temperature sensor, a controller and a display screen; the temperature sensor is arranged in the ice-making container to monitor the temperature in the ice-making container in real time, the temperature sensor is connected to the controller signal, the controller is electrically connected to the refrigeration system, the controller controls the operation of the refrigeration system according to the temperature signal, the controller is connected to the display screen signal, and the display screen displays the working status and parameters of the ice-making mechanism.

[0053] The control system is simple and easy to operate. The user only needs to set the parameters and the ice-making mechanism will run automatically. The control system is equipped with complete safety protection measures such as overvoltage protection, overheating protection, and leakage protection to ensure the safe operation of the ice-making mechanism equipment.

[0054] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a large-volume ice making method suitable for unmanned scenes, which is applied to the large-volume ice making mechanism suitable for unmanned scenes as described above, see Figure 3 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0055] S1. Start the water supply system, inject drinking water into the ice-making container, and ensure the stable supply of drinking water by the water supply system;

[0056] S2, start the refrigeration system, the compressor compresses the refrigerant into high-temperature and high-pressure gas, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas is cooled by the condenser and becomes high-pressure liquid, the high-pressure liquid is reduced in pressure by the expansion valve and becomes low-temperature and low-pressure liquid, and the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid enters the evaporator to absorb heat;

[0057] S3, the evaporator contacts the ice-making container, so that the drinking water in the ice-making cube mold in the ice-making container is cooled and formed into ice particles; when the temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the ice-making container reaches the set value, the controller controls the refrigeration system to stop working;

[0058] S4, after the ice particles are completely frozen, start the ice-removing process, open the ice-making container, and let the ice particles fall out of the ice-making mold into the storage chamber, and take out the ice particles from the storage chamber; if ice-making needs to continue, repeat steps S1-S4.

[0059] The large-volume ice-making mechanism of this embodiment includes the following steps in an actual ice-making process: water intake, cooling, freezing, ice removal and ice storage.

[0060] 1. Water Inlet: The tank where drinking water enters the water supply system.

[0061] 2. Refrigeration: When drinking water enters the ice-making mechanism, the refrigeration system inside the ice-making mechanism starts to work. The ice-making mechanism uses environmentally friendly refrigerants to perform refrigeration through compressors, condensers and evaporators. The refrigerant is compressed into high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the compressor, and then dissipates heat through the condenser to become high-pressure liquid. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant is decompressed by the throttling device and enters the evaporator, where it absorbs heat and becomes low-temperature and low-pressure gas, thereby achieving the refrigeration effect.

[0062] 3. Freezing: When the refrigeration system is started, drinking water is directed into the ice cube mold of the ice making container. The surface temperature of the ice cube mold is very low, and the water freezes quickly after contacting the mold to form ice. The ice cube mold contains different ice cube mold shapes, which can produce ice particles of different shapes and sizes, including ice cubes, ice balls, and bullet ice.

[0063] 4. Deicing: When ice particles are formed, the ice-making mechanism starts the deicing process, which is achieved by heating or reverse cooling. Heating deicing is to heat the ice-making mold to melt the surface of the ice particles a little, and then the ice particles will fall off automatically. Reverse cooling is to change the flow direction of the refrigerant to slightly increase the temperature of the ice-making grid. Turn the ice-making grid mold upside down 180°, align the ice cube mold, ice ball mold, and bullet ice mold with the ice cube storage area, ice ball storage area, and bullet ice storage area respectively, press the top of the mold after it is turned upside down, and the ice cubes, ice balls, and bullet ice will fall into the ice cube storage area, ice ball storage area, and bullet ice storage area of ​​the ice storage room accordingly, and the ice cubes, ice balls, and bullet ice will not mix with each other.

[0064] 5. Ice storage: The fallen ice particles are collected in the ice storage room, where they can be kept at a low temperature for a certain period of time to prevent melting. The ice storage room has a heat preservation function, but does not have a re-refrigeration function, so the prepared ice particles need to be used as soon as possible.

[0065] The main advantages of the large-volume ice-making mechanism of the embodiment of the present invention include:

[0066] 1. It can produce more than 10kg of ice particles in a short time, and can produce ice particles of different shapes and sizes. It can provide sufficient supply of various styles of ice particles to meet the needs of various scenarios. For example, square ice cubes are suitable for ordinary drinks, spherical ice cubes (ice balls) are suitable for cocktails, and bullet-shaped ice cubes are suitable for rapid cooling, etc.

[0067] 2. The operation is simple, you only need to add drinking water and start refrigeration to complete the entire ice-making process.

[0068] 3. The interior of the ice-making mechanism is made of food-grade materials, which is clean and hygienic to prevent ice particles from being contaminated.

[0069] 4. Adopt high-efficiency and energy-saving refrigeration system with low energy consumption, good environmental performance, and environmentally friendly refrigerant to reduce the impact on the environment.
