Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of refrigeration equipment, in particular to an ice maker with an automatic adding function. Background Art

[0002] A commercial ice machine is a device designed and manufactured specifically for commercial use. It is mainly used to produce ice cubes continuously and in large quantities to meet the high demand for ice cubes in various commercial scenarios such as catering services, hotels, supermarkets, hospitals, laboratories, etc. Commercial ice machines are more likely to breed bacteria than household ice machines. Adding silver ions when making ice is a common sterilization method.

[0003] When making ice, existing commercial ice machines need to add a solution containing silver ions into the water tank of the ice maker through an external silver ion adding device. However, since the silver ion adding device relies on manual operation, it is impossible to achieve automatic addition of silver ions, which can easily lead to insufficient addition of silver ions and affect the sterilization effect of the ice maker.

[0004] Therefore, an ice maker with an automatic adding function is now developed which can automatically add silver ions during the ice making process to avoid insufficient addition of silver ions and ensure complete sterilization of the ice maker. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing commercial ice machines that, when making ice, the silver ion adding equipment relies on manual operation and cannot realize automatic silver ion addition, which easily leads to insufficient silver ion addition, the utility model provides an ice maker with an automatic adding function which can automatically add silver ions during the ice making process, avoids insufficient silver ion addition, and ensures that the ice maker is completely sterilized.

[0006] The technical scheme of the utility model is: an ice maker with an automatic adding function, comprising a shell, a collection bucket and a baffle, the front of the shell is connected to the collection bucket, the upper rear of the shell is connected to the baffle, and the baffle is connected to the collection bucket.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a fixed frame, a motor, a crank, a water collecting trough and a rotating plate. The fixed frame is connected to the right part of the shell, the motor is connected to the fixed frame, the crank is connected to the motor output shaft, the crank is also connected to the upper left part of the shell, the water collecting trough is connected between the cranks, and the rotating plate is rotatably connected to the front side of the water collecting trough.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a copper tube and an ice-making tube. The upper part of the shell is connected to the copper tube, and the lower side of the copper tube is connected to multiple ice-making tubes, and the ice-making tubes are all located in the water collecting tank.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes an additive barrel and a feeding pipe. The upper left side of the shell is connected to the additive barrel, and the additive barrel is connected to the feeding pipe, and the feeding pipe passes through the shell.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a control valve, a float and a torsion spring. The feeding pipe is rotatably connected to multiple control valves, each control valve is rotatably connected to a float, and a torsion spring is connected between the float and the connected control valve.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a water inlet pipe, and the upper right part of the shell is connected with the water inlet pipe.

[0012] Beneficial effect: When the water collecting tank is rotated to a horizontal position, the float ball floats upward, causing the control valve to open and allow the silver ion solution to flow into the water collecting tank; when the water collecting tank is rotated to an inclined position, the control valve is closed, thereby achieving the effect of automatically adding silver ions during the ice-making process, avoiding insufficient addition of silver ions, and ensuring complete sterilization of the ice-making machine.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The above scheme is further described below in conjunction with specific examples. It should be understood that these examples are used to illustrate the present application and are not limited to the scope of the present application. The implementation conditions adopted in the examples can be further adjusted according to the conditions of the specific manufacturer, and the implementation conditions not specified are usually the conditions in conventional experiments.

[0018] An ice machine with automatic adding function, such as Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, it includes a shell 1, a collection barrel 2, a baffle 3, a fixing frame 4, a motor 5, a crank 6, a water collection tank 7 and a rotating plate 8, a copper tube 9 and an ice making tube 10, an additive barrel 11 and a feeding tube 12, a control valve 13, a float 14, a torsion spring 15 and a water inlet pipe 16. The front of the shell 1 is connected to the collection barrel 2, the upper rear part of the shell 1 is connected to the baffle 3, the baffle 3 is connected to the collection barrel 2, the right part of the shell 1 is connected to the fixing frame 4, the fixing frame 4 is connected to the motor 5, the output shaft of the motor 5 is connected to the crank 6, the upper left part of the shell 1 is also connected to the crank 6, and the cranks 6 are connected between them. A water collecting tank 7, a rotating plate 8 is rotatably connected to the front side of the water collecting tank 7, a copper tube 9 is connected to the upper part of the outer shell 1, and eight ice-making tubes 10 are connected to the lower side of the copper tube 9, and the ice-making tubes 10 are all located in the water collecting tank 7, an additive barrel 11 is connected to the upper left side of the outer shell 1, and a feeding tube 12 is connected to the additive barrel 11, and the feeding tube 12 passes through the outer shell 1, and three control valves 13 are rotatably connected to the feeding tube 12, and the control valves 13 are all rotatably connected to floats 14, and torsion springs 15 are connected between the floats 14 and the connected control valves 13, and a water inlet pipe 16 is connected to the upper right part of the outer shell 1.

[0019] When using the utility model, firstly, the housing 1 is placed in the use area of ​​the ice maker, and then the solution containing silver ions is poured into the additive barrel 11, and then the copper tube 9 is docked with the refrigeration equipment, and the water inlet pipe 16 is docked with the water pump. After the docking is completed, the motor 5 on the fixing frame 4 is started to rotate the crank 6, driving the water collecting tank 7 to reciprocate back and forth. When the water collecting tank 7 rotates to a horizontal position, the water pump is started to make water flow from the water inlet pipe 16 into the water collecting tank 7, so that the float 14 floats upward under the action of buoyancy, and the torsion spring 15 is deformed, so that the control valve 13 is opened, and the silver ion solution flows from the additive barrel 11 into the water collecting tank 7 through the feeding pipe 12. At the same time, the refrigeration equipment is started to make the cold air flow into the copper tube 9 and then into the ice-making tube 10 to cool the ice-making tube 10. The water in the water collecting tank 7 condenses into ice cubes near the ice-making tube 10. When the water collecting tank 7 rotates to be tilted, the baffle 3 and the rotating plate 8 are squeezed and matched, so that the rotating plate 8 rotates to fit with the baffle 3, so that the ice cubes are separated from the water collecting tank 7 from the rotating plate 8, and then slide along the baffle 3 into the collection bucket 2 for collection. At the same time, the water level in the water collecting tank 7 drops, the torsion spring 15 rebounds, and drives the float 14 to reset, so that the control valve 13 is closed, thereby playing the role of automatically adding silver ions during the ice-making process, avoiding insufficient addition of silver ions, and ensuring complete sterilization of the ice maker.

Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, which should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
