The heater is located at the center of the machine and is used to heat the syrup to melt it and turn it into a liquid state. The rotating nozzle 2 is a rotating part above or around the heater. The motor controls the rotating nozzle 2 to rotate, and the melted syrup is thrown out by centrifugal force to form fine sugar threads. Then, a stick or a wooden stick is used to start rolling up the sugar fibers at the edge of the cotton candy machine to gradually form cotton candy balls.

[0025] The existing cotton candy machine has some obvious defects in design and use, which affect its portability and convenience. First, the cotton candy machines currently on the market are usually bulky, which makes it inconvenient for users to carry and store them. Secondly, the space above the cotton candy machine housing 1 for placing items is limited and cannot be extended, which makes it difficult for users to temporarily store auxiliary items such as syrup and wooden sticks during operation.

[0026] In view of the above defects, the present invention makes the following technical improvements to the structure of the housing 1:

The positioning rod 9 is rotated clockwise until its top abuts against the positioning plate, and the abutment point is located at the top of the slide slot 10. The positioning plate is used to limit the position of the upper end of the positioning rod 9, so that it can be located just below the lower end of the hinge rod 8.

[0034] In this embodiment, a rod insertion component 13 is provided on the side wall of the main body 3, and the rod insertion component 13 includes a cylinder 14. The cylinder 14 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the main body 3. A locking piece 15 is threadedly connected to the side of the cylinder 14. A rod-shaped object is inserted into the cylinder 14, and the locking piece 15 is screwed inward to fix the rod-shaped object.

[0035] The side wall of the body 3 is provided with a rod insertion component 13, which includes a cylinder 14, and the cylinder 14 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the body 3. The side of the cylinder 14 is connected with a threaded locking member 15, and the locking member 15 is preferably a screw, and the locking member 15 is used to fix the rod-shaped object inserted into the cylinder 14, and the rod-shaped object can be an umbrella or a propaganda flag.

[0036] The specific operation process is that the user inserts the rod-shaped object into the cylinder 14, and then screws the locking member 15 inwardly to fix the rod-shaped object inside the cylinder 14 through threaded connection. This design can effectively fix the rod-shaped object to ensure that it will not accidentally loosen or fall off during use.
