[0037] The present invention is further described in detail below through specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0038] See also Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides an ice cream system with relative temperature regulation, including a compressor 100, a condenser 200, a material storage tank 300 and a freezing cylinder 400; the outlet of the compressor 100 is connected to the inlet of the condenser 200 through a first multi-way joint 510, and the inlets of the material storage tank 300 and the freezing cylinder 400 are respectively connected to the first multi-way joint 510 in parallel through a normally closed solenoid valve; the inlets of the material storage tank 300 and the freezing cylinder 400 are connected to the outlet of the condenser 200 through a second multi-way joint 520, and the inlets of the material storage tank 300 and the freezing cylinder 400 are respectively connected to the second multi-way joint 520 in parallel through a normally closed solenoid valve; the outlets of the material storage tank 300 and the freezing cylinder 400 are connected to the compressor 100 in parallel.

[0039] Specifically, the ice cream machine works according to the cooling and heating requirements. When the material storage tank 300 is required to be cooled, the ice cream machine works according to the compressor 100-condenser 200-normally closed solenoid valve-material storage tank 300-compressor 100 passage, so as to cool the material storage tank 300. When the freezing cylinder 400 is required to be cooled, the ice cream machine works according to the compressor 100-condenser 200-normally closed solenoid valve-freezing cylinder 400-compressor 100 passage, so as to cool the freezing cylinder 400. When the material storage tank 300 or the freezing cylinder 400 is required to be heated, the ice cream machine works according to the compressor 100-first multi-way connector 510-normally closed solenoid valve-material storage tank 300 or the freezing cylinder passage, so as to heat the material storage tank 300 or the freezing cylinder 400. One compressor 100 and one condenser 200 are used to cool or heat the material storage tank 300 and the freezing cylinder 400 at the same time, simplifying the piping system, thereby reducing the risk of leakage and reducing energy consumption.

[0040] It should be noted that the first multi-way connector 510 and the second multi-way connector 520 can be three-way or four-way, and those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs, which will not be described in detail here.

[0041] See also Figure 1 As shown, the inlet of the material storage tank 300 is connected to the first multi-way connector 510 through a first normally closed solenoid valve 610 ; the inlet of the freezing cylinder 400 is connected to the first multi-way connector 510 through a second normally closed solenoid valve 620 .

[0042] See also Figure 1 As shown, the first normally closed solenoid valve 610 and the second normally closed solenoid valve 620 are both connected to the first multi-way connector 510 through the first drying filter 110 .

[0043] See also Figure 1 As shown, an expansion valve 410 is provided between the freezing cylinder 400 and the condenser 200 , and the expansion valve 410 is connected to the second multi-way connector 520 via a third normally closed solenoid valve 630 .

[0044] See also Figure 1 As shown, a first capillary tube 310 is provided between the material storage tank 300 and the condenser 200 , and the first capillary tube 310 is connected to the second multi-way connector 520 via a fourth normally closed solenoid valve 640 .

[0045] See also Figure 1 As shown, the inlet of the compressor 100 is connected to the outlet of the condenser 200 through a second multi-way connector 520 .

[0046] See also Figure 1 As shown, a second capillary tube 120 is provided between the inlet of the compressor 100 and the second multi-way connector 520 , and the first capillary tube 310 is connected to the second multi-way connector 520 via a fifth normally closed solenoid valve 650 .

[0047] See also Figure 1 As shown, a second drying filter 210 is arranged between the condenser 200 and the second multi-way connector 520.

[0048] See also Figure 1 As shown, a high-pressure protector 700 is connected between the outlet of the compressor 100 and the first multi-way connector 510 via a multi-way connector.

[0049] Specifically, when the ice cream system with mutually adjustable temperature provided in this embodiment is working, when the material storage tank 300 is refrigerated, the passage of the compressor 100-first multi-way joint 510-condenser 200-second filter drier 210-second multi-way joint 520-normally closed electromagnetic valve-first capillary tube 310-material storage tank 300-compressor 100 is followed to complete the refrigeration of the material storage tank 300. When the freezing cylinder 400 is refrigerated, the passage of the compressor 100-first multi-way joint 510-condenser 200-second filter drier 210-second multi-way joint 520-third normally closed electromagnetic valve 630-expansion valve 410-freezing cylinder 400-compressor 100 is followed to complete the refrigeration of the freezing cylinder 400.

[0050] When heating the material storage tank 300 , the passage of compressor 100 - first multi-way connector 510 - first drying filter 110 - second normally closed solenoid valve 620 - material storage tank 300 - compressor 100 is operated to complete the heating of the material storage tank 300 .

[0051] When heating the freezing cylinder 400 , the heating circuit operates according to the path of the compressor 100 - the first multi-way connector 510 - the first drying filter 110 - the first normally closed electromagnetic valve 610 - the freezing cylinder 400 - the compressor 100 , thereby completing the heating of the freezing cylinder 400 .

[0052] When the compressor 100 is cooled, the compressor 100 - first multi-way connector 510 - condenser 200 - second drying filter 210 - second multi-way connector 520 - fifth normally closed solenoid valve 650 - second capillary tube 120 - compressor 100 are operated to complete the cooling of the compressor 100, thereby ensuring that the compressor 100 operates within a suitable temperature range.

[0053] It should be pointed out that during the cooling or heating process of the material storage trough 300 or the freezing cylinder 400, the fifth normally closed solenoid valve 650 can be opened according to the temperature of the compressor 100 itself, so as to cool down the compressor 100, ensure the normal operation of the compressor 100, and ensure the stable operation of the system, thereby realizing that one compressor 100 can complete the cooling or heating of both the material storage trough 300 and the freezing cylinder 400.

[0054] This embodiment provides an ice cream machine, including an ice cream system with mutually regulating temperatures.

[0055] Specifically, the ice cream machine provided in this embodiment has the advantages of the above-mentioned ice cream system with opposite temperature adjustment compared with the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0056] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
