[0034] See attached Figure 1-4 The utility model provides an injection molded cup holder bracket for a smoothie machine, comprising the following structure:
[0035] The housing 1 has a panel 11 and a cover plate 12 clamped on the front top and the rear side of the housing 1 respectively.
[0036] The cup holder 2 has a drain hole 21 fixedly disposed in the middle of the top surface of the cup holder 2 , and a drain pipe 3 is clamped below the drain hole 21 of the cup holder 2 .
[0037] In this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, a butt joint pipe 13 is fixedly provided on the inner side of the front end of the housing 1 , and the bottom opening of the butt joint pipe 13 extends to the top of the water discharge hole 21 .
[0038] The butt joint 13 of the housing 1 is used for laying out the ice smoothie delivery pipeline of the ice smoothie machine.
[0039] In this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a recessed area 22 is fixedly provided at the water outlet 21 of the cup holder 2 , and the outer side of the cup holder 2 is nested with the front bottom of the housing 1 .
[0040] The user places the cup in the recessed area 22 to collect smoothies, and the area where water accumulates on the cup holder 2 is concentrated in the recessed area 22. The design of the recessed area 22 and the drainage hole 21 cooperates to facilitate the accumulated water on the recessed area 22 to fall into the drain pipe 3 in time, thereby preventing the accumulated water from being unable to be drained away in time on the cup holder 2.
[0041] In this embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a water collecting box 4 is movably inserted into the bottom of the cup holder 2 , and guide holes 41 are fixedly provided on both left and right sides of the front of the water collecting box 4 . The bottom inner side of the water collecting box 4 is divided into a water storage area 42 .
[0042] The water collecting box 4 cooperates with the drain pipe 3 to collect the accumulated water on the recessed area 22 of the cup holder 2, wherein the water storage area 42 is used for storing the accumulated water.
[0043] In this embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the front end of the drain pipe 3 is movably connected to a float 5, and the float 5 is movably connected to the inner side of the top of the water collecting box 4. The bottom of the float 5 extends into the water storage area 42. Slide pins 51 are fixed on both sides of the front left and right sides of the float 5. The slide pin 51 cooperates with the guide hole 41. A water baffle 6 is fixed on the top of the front end of the float 5. The rear side of the water baffle 6 is in contact with the front end of the drain pipe 3. A plurality of drainage holes 61 are fixed on the outer side of the water baffle 6. The bottom of the drainage hole 61 is between 0.5cm and 1.2cm above the bottom of the drain pipe 3.
[0044] The float 5 is designed to float up and down according to the water level in the water storage area 42. When the accumulated water level in the water storage area 42 is close to the highest point, the float 5 is against the outer front end of the drain pipe 3. The design of the water retaining plate 6 and the drain hole 61 can block the accumulated water that may still flow out of the drain pipe 3. At this time, the slide pin 51 is in the upper area of the guide hole 41. The slide pin 51 needs to be colored during the actual production stage of the product. This indicating structure allows the staff to promptly discover that the amount of accumulated water collected in the water collection box 4 is close to the maximum capacity of the water storage area 42, and to pull the water collection box 4 out of the cup holder 2, pour out the accumulated water in the water collection box 4, and then reload it into the cup holder 2 to continue collecting the accumulated water.
[0045] In this embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the front end of the drain pipe 3 is movably plugged into the top rear side of the water collecting box 4 , and the front drain port of the drain pipe 3 extends to the top inner side of the water collecting box 4 .
[0046] The design of the water retaining plate 6 and the drainage hole 61 blocks the accumulated water that may still flow out of the drainage pipe 3. When the water collecting box 4 is pulled out from the cup holder 2, the float 5 moves on the inner side of the water collecting box 4, and the guide hole 41 and the sliding pin 51 cooperate to release the water retaining plate 6 from blocking the drainage pipe 3, and the accumulated water in the drainage pipe 3 directly flows into the water collecting box 4.
[0047] The guide hole 41 and the sliding pin 51 structure provided in this device provide floating guidance for the float 5 and water level indication in the water storage area 42. Therefore, the capacity design of the water storage area 42 of the water collecting box 4 needs to reserve a safety capacity to avoid the problem of excessive water accumulation in the drain pipe 3 and overflow when the water collecting box 4 is pulled out.
[0048] The above-described embodiments only express a certain implementation method of the utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the utility model shall be based on the attached claims.
