[0028] See also Figure 6 In this embodiment, the limiting structure includes a spring pin 701 and a pin hole 702; one end of the spring in the spring pin 701 is fixed to the inner wall of the fixing seat 606, and the other end is fixed with a pin. The outer wall of the container 607 is provided with a pin hole 702 that is compatible with the spring pin 701. The spring pin 701 is made of spring steel and has a certain elasticity and recovery ability. When the staff puts the container 607 into the fixing seat 606, the pin of the spring pin 701 will be inserted into the pin hole 702. At this time, the restoring force of the spring pin 701 will make it tightly fixed in the pin hole 702, ensuring the stability of the container 607.

[0029] During the ice crushing process, the staff first puts the ice to be crushed into the crushing refrigerator 2, and then closes the dust cover 4 to ensure the cleanliness of the operating environment. Next, the container 607 for receiving the crushed ice is placed in the fixing seat 606. At this time, the pin of the spring pin 701 is automatically inserted into the pin hole 702, and is tightly fixed in the pin hole 702 due to the restoring force of the spring pin 701, thereby ensuring the stability of the container 607.

[0030] Subsequently, the first rotating motor 501 and the second rotating motor 502 are started, and the two motors work together to drive the rotating rod 503 to rotate at a high speed. During this process, the ice-crushing blade 504 cuts and crushes the ice cubes while rotating at a high speed. Since the first rotating motor 501 and the second rotating motor 502 rotate in opposite directions, the shear forces generated by them act on the ice cubes together, thereby greatly improving the crushing efficiency.

[0031] The crushed ice cubes will fall on the inclined baffle 505, and at the same time guide the crushed ice to flow in the direction of the discharge pipe 3, ensuring that the crushed ice can be discharged smoothly through the discharge pipe 3. At this time, the staff can easily rotate the turntable 603 to quickly turn away the container 607 that has received the crushed ice, and at the same time let the empty container 607 turn to the bottom of the discharge pipe 3 to prepare for receiving new crushed ice;

[0032] During the rotation of the turntable 603, the ball 605 at the lower end of the turntable 603 significantly reduces the friction between the turntable 603 and the connecting plate 601, making the turntable 603 smoother and more labor-saving when rotating, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire ice crushing and cold drink making process and significantly shortening the waiting time of customers.

[0033] Through the above steps, the tacit cooperation of the ice crushing component, the rotating component and the limiting structure not only ensures the efficient crushing of ice cubes and greatly improves the ice crushing efficiency, but also allows the ice to be crushed continuously, further speeding up the cold drink making process. This collaborative work not only optimizes the entire process of ice crushing and cold drink making, but also significantly shortens the waiting time of customers, and solves the problem of manual ice chiseling by staff in the cold drink making process, which reduces the efficiency of cold drink making.

[0034] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
