Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ice makers, in particular to an ice discharging device of an ice maker. Background Art

[0002] An ice maker is a refrigeration mechanical device that cools water through an evaporator with a refrigerant of a refrigeration system to generate ice. It adopts a refrigeration system with water as a carrier, and manufactures ice after passing through a certain device under the power-on state. According to the principle of the evaporator and different production methods, the shapes of the generated ice cubes are also different. Generally, ice makers are divided into pellet ice machines, flake ice machines, plate ice machines, tube ice machines, shell ice machines, etc. according to the ice shape. The ice storage structure is used to store the ice materials made by the ice maker to prevent the ice materials from melting and maintain the condition of the ice materials.

[0003] Currently, after the existing ice maker makes ice, it will store the ice cubes in the ice storage bin. When the user takes ice, they need to open the side door manually to take ice. If the amount of ice taken is large, this process is rather cumbersome. Moreover, during the process of the user reaching into the ice storage bin to take ice, the remaining ice cubes may be contaminated. Therefore, in order to solve the foregoing problems, we propose an ice discharging device for an ice maker. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an ice discharging device for an ice maker to solve the defects existing in the prior art.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0006] The ice discharging device of an ice maker includes an ice storage bin. A discharging bin is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ice storage bin. The discharging bin communicates with the ice storage bin. A guiding plate is fixedly connected to the top inside the discharging bin. A guiding opening is formed in the middle of the guiding plate. A driving motor is fixedly connected to the bottom inside the discharging bin. An output end of the driving motor is fixedly connected to a connecting disk. A connecting block is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting disk. A plurality of blanking grooves are formed on the surface of the connecting block.

[0007] Further, the top surface of the connecting block is flush with the bottom surface of the guiding plate, and the inner bottom surface of the blanking groove is inclined.

[0008] Further, a through groove is formed at the bottom on one side of the discharging bin. A discharging frame is fixedly connected inside the through groove. A guiding frame is arranged above one end of the discharging frame.

[0009] Further, the connecting disk is rotatably connected to the inside of one end of the guiding frame. The outer surface of the connecting block fits the inner surface of the guiding frame. Supports are fixedly connected to the bottom of both sides of the guiding frame. The supports are fixedly connected to the bottom of the discharging bin.

[0010] Furthermore, a baffle is arranged inside the middle of the discharge frame, an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the discharge bin, and the output end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the top of the middle of the baffle.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The driving motor provided in this application drives the connecting block to rotate, enabling an automatic ice-taking function, improving the ice-taking efficiency, and eliminating the need for the user to repeatedly insert their hand into the ice storage bin to avoid contaminating the ice cubes. Secondly, through the cooperation of the electric push rod and the baffle, the discharge frame can be closed when ice-taking is not required, effectively preventing the ice cubes from being contaminated.

[0018] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model;

[0019] Refer to Figures 1-4, the ice discharging device of an ice maker, including an ice storage bin 1, the bottom of the ice storage bin 1 is fixedly connected with a discharging bin 2, the discharging bin 2 communicates with the ice storage bin 1, the top inside the discharging bin 2 is fixedly connected with a material guiding plate 5, a material guiding opening 6 is formed in the middle of the material guiding plate 5, the bottom inside the discharging bin 2 is fixedly connected with a driving motor 7, the output end of the driving motor 7 is fixedly connected with a connecting disk 10, the top of the connecting disk 10 is fixedly connected with a connecting block 11, several material discharging grooves 12 are formed on the surface of the connecting block 11. By starting the driving motor 7, the connecting disk 10 can be driven to rotate, and then the connecting block 11 rotates. When the material discharging groove 12 on the connecting block 11 rotates to the position of the material guiding opening 6, the ice cubes enter the material discharging groove 12 from the material guiding opening 6. As the connecting block 11 rotates, the material discharging groove 12 is no longer communicated with the material guiding opening 6, and the ice cubes no longer enter the material discharging groove 12, enabling users to take ice cubes as needed.

[0020] The top surface of the connecting block 11 is flush with the bottom surface of the material guiding plate 5. Due to the flushness, the ice cubes can accurately fall into the material discharging groove 12 without falling into the discharging bin 2. The inner bottom surface of the material discharging groove 12 is inclined. Due to the inclination, the ice cubes can be guided to enter the material guiding frame 8.

[0021] A through groove 3 is formed at the bottom on one side of the discharging bin 2, a discharging frame 4 is fixedly connected inside the through groove 3, a material guiding frame 8 is arranged above one end of the discharging frame 4. The ice cubes that enter the material guiding frame 8 through the material discharging groove 12 will fall into the discharging frame 4 after being guided and are conveyed outside the discharging bin 2 by the discharging frame 4.

[0022] The connecting disk 10 is rotatably connected inside one end of the material guiding frame 8, the outer surface of the connecting block 11 fits the inner surface of the material guiding frame 8. Support brackets 9 are fixedly connected to the bottoms on both sides of the material guiding frame 8, and the support brackets 9 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the discharging bin 2. Since the outer surface of the connecting block 11 fits the inner surface of the material guiding frame 8, the ice cubes will not get stuck between the connecting block 11 and the material guiding frame 8 during the rotation of the connecting block 11. The support brackets 9 are used to support and fix the material guiding frame 8.

[0023] A baffle plate 13 is arranged inside the middle of the discharging frame 4, an electric push rod 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the discharging bin 2, and the output end of the electric push rod 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the middle of the baffle plate 13. By driving the baffle plate 13 to move up and down through the arranged electric push rod 14, the baffle plate 13 can be used to close or open the discharging frame 4.

[0024] Working principle: When taking ice cubes, first start the electric push rod 14, and its output end drives the baffle 13 to move upward, making the discharge frame 4 unobstructed. Then start the drive motor 7, and the drive motor 7 will drive the connecting block 11 to rotate through the connecting plate 10. When the feeding chute 12 rotates to communicate with the material guiding port 6, the ice cubes enter the feeding chute 12 through the material guiding port 6, enter the material guiding frame 8 from the feeding chute 12, and finally are guided by the material guiding frame 8 to be discharged from the discharge frame 4. After the user finishes taking the ice cubes, the drive motor 7 can be started to reverse, making the connecting block 11 rotate, so that the feeding chute 12 no longer communicates with the material guiding port 6, and then the ice cubes stop falling. After the ice cubes in the discharge frame 4 are completely output, start the electric push rod 14 again to close the discharge frame 4 with the baffle 13.
