Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ice making machines, in particular to an ice dropping device based on beverage production. Background Technique
[0002] An ice making machine is a refrigeration mechanical equipment that cools water through an evaporator with a refrigerant of a refrigeration system to generate ice. It adopts a refrigeration system, uses water as a carrier, and manufactures ice after passing through a certain device in the powered state. According to the principle of the evaporator and different production methods, the shapes of the generated ice cubes are also different; generally, ice making machines are divided into pellet ice machines, flake ice machines, plate ice machines, tube ice machines, shell ice machines, etc. according to the shape of the ice.
[0003] After the ice making machine finishes making ice, it is necessary to transport the crushed ice through a channel. When the crushed ice enters from a low-temperature environment to a high-temperature environment, part of the crushed ice will liquefy, resulting in strong adhesiveness between the crushed ice, thus causing the situation of crushed ice blocking the channel and affecting the ice-taking efficiency; therefore, an ice dropping device based on beverage production is proposed for the above problems. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art and solve at least one technical problem proposed in the background technique, the utility model proposes an ice dropping device based on beverage production.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is: an ice dropping device based on beverage production described in the utility model includes an ice making machine main body. A receiving barrel is arranged inside the ice making machine main body. A loading seat is fixedly arranged inside the ice making machine main body. A blocking component is arranged on the loading seat. A top connecting seat is fixedly arranged inside the ice making machine main body and below the loading seat. An ice dropping seat is fixedly installed on the top connecting seat. An ice breaking component is arranged on the ice dropping seat. A motor is fixedly installed on the ice dropping seat and close to one side of the ice making machine main body. After the ice making machine main body finishes making ice, the crushed ice falls into the inside of the ice dropping seat. The ice dropping seat guides the crushed ice. During the guiding process, the ice breaking component can further break the crushed ice inside the ice dropping seat, and during the breaking process, it can effectively prevent the crushed ice from being blocked inside the ice dropping seat, promoting the more efficient feeding of the crushed ice. At the same time, through the blocking component, when the crushed ice is broken by the ice breaking component, the crushed ice can be blocked by the blocking component, so that the crushed ice is always inside the ice dropping seat during the transportation process. Due to the transparent material of the transparent cover, users can directly observe the transportation situation of the crushed ice inside the ice dropping seat.
[0006] Preferably, the blocking component includes a rotating shaft inserted into the loading seat. A transparent cover is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft, and the transparent cover corresponds to the ice dropping seat. During the hitting process, the broken ice inside the ice dropping seat and the inner side of the transparent cover will be splashed.

[0007] Preferably, the ice breaking component includes a circular hole opened on the ice dropping seat. Scraping grooves are evenly opened on the ice dropping seat outside the circular hole. An ice dropping roller is inserted into the inner side of the circular hole. Convex blocks are evenly arranged on the ice dropping roller, and the convex blocks are in clearance fit with the scraping grooves. After the broken ice falls into the inner side of the ice dropping seat, it can directly contact the ice dropping roller. At the same time, because there are scraping grooves outside the circular hole, when the ice dropping roller rotates, it drives the convex blocks to intermittently enter and exit inside the scraping grooves. There are multiple groups of convex blocks. When one group of convex blocks leaks out, the remaining convex blocks can timely fill the scraping grooves with leaked gaps, thereby preventing the broken ice from leaking out through the circular hole and the scraping grooves.
[0008] Preferably, one end of the scraping groove is fixedly installed with a driving gear. A belt is engaged with the driving gear. The output end of the motor is fixedly installed with a driven gear. A bearing is fixedly arranged on the ice dropping seat near the position of the driven gear. The output end of the motor is inserted into the inner side of the bearing. The motor is used to drive the driven gear to rotate. The driven gear drives the belt outside it to rotate. The belt drives the driving gear to rotate. The driving gear drives the circular hole to rotate, so as to realize the ice breaking work inside the ice dropping seat.
[0009] Preferably, a material guiding groove is opened on the inner side of the bottom of the ice dropping seat. The material guiding groove corresponds to the receiving cylinder. A bottom connecting seat is fixedly installed on the outside of the bottom of the ice dropping seat. One end of the bottom connecting seat away from the ice dropping seat is fixedly connected to the main body of the ice maker. Through the material guiding groove, the material guiding of this device can be realized, and through the receiving cylinder, the material receiving of this device can be realized, so as to facilitate subsequent transfer.
[0010] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

Detailed Embodiments
[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] The following gives specific embodiments.
[0021] Please refer to Figures 1-5As shown in the figure, an ice dropping device based on beverage making includes an ice maker main body 1. Inside the ice maker main body 1, there is a material receiving cylinder 2. A loading seat 3 is fixedly arranged inside the ice maker main body 1. A blocking component is arranged on the loading seat 3. A top connecting seat 6 is fixedly arranged inside the ice maker main body 1 and below the loading seat 3. An ice dropping seat 8 is fixedly installed on the top connecting seat 6. An ice breaking component is arranged on the ice dropping seat 8. A motor 15 is fixedly installed on the ice dropping seat 8 and close to one side of the ice maker main body 1;
[0022] During operation, the ice maker main body 1 makes ice. The ice maker main body 1 is a prior art, and its usage method and specific structure will not be elaborated in this article. After the ice maker main body 1 makes ice, the crushed ice falls into the inside of the ice dropping seat 8. The ice dropping seat 8 guides the crushed ice. During the guiding process, the ice breaking component can further break the crushed ice inside the ice dropping seat 8. And during the breaking process, it can effectively prevent the crushed ice from being blocked inside the ice dropping seat 8, promoting the more efficient feeding of the crushed ice. At the same time, through the blocking component, when the crushed ice is broken by the ice breaking component, the crushed ice can be blocked by the blocking component, so that the crushed ice is always inside the ice dropping seat 8 during transportation. Due to the transparent material of the transparent cover 5, users can intuitively observe the conveying situation of the crushed ice inside the ice dropping seat 8.
[0023] Further, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the blocking component includes a rotating shaft 4 inserted on the loading seat 3. A transparent cover 5 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 4. The transparent cover 5 corresponds to the ice dropping seat 8;
[0024] During operation, after the ice maker main body 1 makes ice, the crushed ice falls into the inside of the ice dropping seat 8 due to gravity. At this time, the ice breaking component strikes the flowing crushed ice. During the striking process, the crushed ice inside the ice dropping seat 8 and the transparent cover 5 will be splashed. The blocking mechanism can block the splashed crushed ice, so that the crushed ice is always conveyed inside the ice dropping seat 8, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the working environment during the transportation of the crushed ice by this device.
[0025] Further, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the ice breaking component includes a round hole 9 opened on the ice dropping seat 8. Scraping grooves 10 are evenly opened on the ice dropping seat 8 and outside the round hole 9. An ice dropping roller 11 is inserted inside the round hole 9. Convex blocks 12 are evenly arranged on the ice dropping roller 11. The convex blocks 12 are in clearance fit with the scraping grooves 10;
[0026] During operation, after the ice maker main body 1 finishes making ice, the crushed ice falls into the inner side of the ice dropping seat 8 due to gravity. At this time, by starting the rotation of the ice dropping roller 11, the ice dropping roller 11 drives the convex block 12 to rotate together, thereby realizing the function of ice breaking. And in this process, the round hole 9 is used for loading and limiting the ice dropping roller 11. The rotation of the ice dropping roller 11 always occurs inside the round hole 9, and the round hole 9 is communicated with the inner side of the ice dropping seat 8. After the crushed ice falls into the inner side of the ice dropping seat 8, it can directly contact the ice dropping roller 11. At the same time, because there is a scraping groove 10 on the outer side of the round hole 9, during the rotation of the ice dropping roller 11, the convex block 12 is driven to intermittently enter and exit inside the scraping groove 10. There are multiple groups of convex blocks 12. When one group of convex blocks 12 leaks out, the remaining convex blocks 12 can timely fill the scraping groove 10 with the leaked gap, thereby preventing the crushed ice from leaking out through the round hole 9 and the scraping groove 10.
[0027] Further, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, one end of the scraping groove 10 is fixedly installed with a driving gear 13. A belt is engaged with the driving gear 13. The output end of the motor 15 is fixedly installed with a driven gear 14. A bearing 16 is fixedly arranged on the ice dropping seat 8 and near the position of the driven gear 14. The output end of the motor 15 is inserted inside the bearing 16;
[0028] During operation, the motor 15 serves as the driving component of this device. When in use, by starting the motor 15, the motor 15 drives the driven gear 14 to rotate. The driven gear 14 drives the belt on its outer side to rotate. The belt drives the driving gear 13 to rotate. The driving gear 13 drives the round hole 9 to rotate, thereby realizing the ice breaking work inside the ice dropping seat 8. The bearing 16 can reduce the hard friction between the motor 15 and the ice dropping seat 8 and extend the service life of this device.
[0029] Further, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a material guiding groove 17 is opened on the inner side of the bottom of the ice dropping seat 8. The material guiding groove 17 corresponds to the receiving cylinder 2. A bottom connecting seat 7 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the bottom of the ice dropping seat 8. One end of the bottom connecting seat 7 away from the ice dropping seat 8 is fixedly connected to the ice maker main body 1;
[0030] During operation, the material guiding of this device can be realized through the material guiding groove 17, and the material receiving of this device can be realized through the receiving cylinder 2 for subsequent transportation. The bottom connecting seat 7 is used to further fix the ice dropping seat 8.
