[0026] In the present invention, during the process of the driving assembly 12 driving the push rod 13 to move, the unlocking or locking between the ice cream machine 1 and the ice cream storage mechanism 2 can be realized, and the disassembly and assembly operation between the ice cream machine 1 and the ice cream storage mechanism 2 is simple.

[0027] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a guide rod 1423 is provided on one of the locking parts 142, and a guide hole 1424 is provided on the other locking part 142. The guide rod 1423 is slidably inserted into the guide hole 1424; the first elastic member 141 is sleeved on the guide rod 1423.

[0028] Specifically, during the process of the trigger part 1421 moving into or out of the first side hole 132, the guide rod 1423 slides in the guide hole 1424, thereby ensuring the stability of the movement of the two locking parts 142 in the inner hole 131.

When the rocker arm 121 is released, the rebounding force of the second elastic member 127 will drive the pressing seat 125 to move along the second direction.

[0032] In this embodiment, the structure of the driving assembly 12 is simple, the manufacturing cost is low, and the operation is convenient.

[0033] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, another embodiment of the present invention further provides an ice cream device, including an ice cream storage mechanism 2 and the above-mentioned ice cream main unit 1; The ice cream storage mechanism 2 includes a container 21 and a piston assembly 22, the container 21 is provided with a storage space 211, the piston assembly 22 is slidably installed in the storage space 211, and the piston assembly 22 is provided with a locking groove 221; When the driving assembly 12 drives the push rod 13 to move in the first direction and the trigger portion 1421 moves into the first outlet hole 112, the cylindrical portion 113 squeezes the trigger portion 1421 into the first side hole 132, and the locking portion 1422 moves into the second side hole 133; The driving component 12 drives the push rod 13 to move in the first direction.

The driving component 12 drives the push rod 13 to move in the second direction. When the triggering part 1421 moves into the first outlet hole 112, the cylindrical part 113 squeezes the triggering part 1421 into the first side hole 132. The triggering part 1421 exits the locking groove 221 and moves into the second side hole 133.

[0034] Wherein, the accommodating body 21 includes but is not limited to a barrel body, etc. The storage space 211 is used for storing ice cream, and the locking groove 221 is arranged at the top of the piston assembly 22.

[0035] Specifically, when the driving component 12 drives the push rod 13 to move in the first direction and the push rod 13 drives the triggering part 1421 to move from the internal space 111 into the first outlet hole 112, the cylindrical part 113 squeezes the triggering part 1421 into the first side hole 132. The locking part 142 moves towards the middle of the inner hole 131 and presses the first elastic member 141, and the locking part 1422 moves into the second side hole 133.

[0036] The driving component 12 drives the push rod 13 to move in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The triggering part 1421 moves into the first outlet hole 112, and the cylinder part 113 squeezes the triggering part 1421 into the first side hole 132. The locking part 142 moves towards the middle of the inner hole 131 and squeezes the first elastic part 141. The locking connection part 1422 moves into the second side hole 133, so that the locking part 142 disengages from the locking groove 221.
