Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ice making, in particular to an ice making machine and drinking water equipment. Background Art

[0002] An ice maker is a device used to cool water and make ice cubes. It's widely used in homes and restaurants. It consists of an ice-making cavity. Water is added to the cavity, which is then cooled by a refrigeration module to form ice cubes. Once ice making is complete, the cavity opens and the ice cubes are ejected.

[0003] Currently, there is a fully automatic ice maker that automatically performs the aforementioned steps of adding water, making ice, and removing ice. Fully automatic ice makers are equipped with various drive mechanisms to achieve this fully automatic process, resulting in a complex structure and high cost. Furthermore, fully automatic ice makers typically produce multiple ice cubes at a time and include an ice storage box for storing ice cubes. However, in home use scenarios, users typically require a small number of ice cubes at a time. Purchasing such a fully automatic ice maker would significantly increase costs. Therefore, there is a need for an ice maker that produces a small amount of ice, has a simple structure, and is low-cost to meet the needs of different users.

[0058] In some embodiments, an ice making machine is provided, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The ice maker includes a main body 1.

[0059] The main body 1 includes a first shell 100, which constitutes the outer contour of the main body 1. A first installation cavity is formed inside the first shell 100.

[0060] When the ice maker is used alone, the first housing 100 can be placed directly on the countertop. When the ice maker is used in conjunction with a coffee machine, water dispenser, or other device, the first housing 100 can be fixed to the other device, integrating the ice maker and the other device into a multifunctional all-in-one machine.

[0061] The main body 1 further includes a first mold body 200 . Figure 8 FIG. 2 is a structural diagram of the first mold body 200. Figure 2 and Figure 5 The first mold body 200 is fixedly disposed on the first shell 100 .

[0062] The main body 1 also includes a refrigeration module 300, referring to Figure 4 The cooling module 300 is disposed in the first installation cavity and is configured to cool the first mold body 200 .

[0063] The ice maker further comprises a cup body 2 . Figure 6 It is a structural diagram of the cup body 2. Figure 7 This is a cross-sectional view of the cup body 2. The cup body 2 is configured to be detachably connected to the main body 1. When making ice, the cup body 2 is installed on the main body 1, referring to Figure 1 After ice making is completed, remove the cup body 2 from the main body 1, refer to Figure 2 After the cup body is removed, the prepared ice cubes are on the cup body 2, and then the ice cubes are taken out from the cup body 2.

[0064] The cup body 2 further includes a second shell 400, which forms the outer contour of the cup body 2. The second shell 400 is detachably connected to the first shell 100.

[0065] The cup body 2 further includes a second mold 500. The second mold 500 is fixedly disposed on the second housing 400. An ice-making cavity 510 is formed in the second mold 500, and one end of the ice-making cavity 510 is open.

[0066] In other words, refer to Figure 5 After the cup body 2 is mounted on the main body 1, the first mold 200 is docked with the second mold 500. The first mold 200 closes the opening of the ice-making chamber 510. The ice-making chamber 510 is filled with water required for ice making. The refrigeration module 300 cools the first mold 200, and the cold energy is transferred to the ice-making chamber 510 to make ice cubes.

[0067] The operation process of the ice machine is as follows:

[0068] Pour water into the cup body 2 and into the ice making chamber 510;

[0069] Install the cup body 2 onto the main body 1, dock the first mold 200 with the second mold 500, and seal the ice-making cavity 510;

[0070] The refrigeration module 300 works to cool the first mold body 200, causing the temperature of the first mold body 200 to drop. The first mold body 200 then transfers the cold energy to the ice-making chamber 510, causing the water in the ice-making chamber 510 to freeze.

[0071] When the water in the ice-making chamber 510 has finished making ice, the refrigeration module 300 stops refrigeration;

[0072] Remove the cup body 2 from the main body 1 and take out the ice cubes.

[0073] The ice maker of this embodiment is a semi-automatic ice maker. The main body 1 includes a refrigeration module 300 and a first mold 200, and the cup body 2 includes a second mold 500. The cup body 2 is detachably connected to the main body 1, facilitating manual filling of the cup body 2 with water and manual removal of ice cubes from the cup body 2. The cup body 2 and the main body 1 are manually assembled and detached, eliminating the need for a drive mechanism, thereby simplifying the structure and reducing costs.

[0074] In some embodiments, the first mold body 200 is located above the second mold body 500, and the top of the ice making chamber 510 is open. The second mold body 500 is located below, which is equivalent to the cup body 2 being installed vertically on the main body 1 to prevent water in the cup body 2 from overflowing.

[0075] In some embodiments, the first mold body 200 is a heat-conducting metal member, for example, aluminum. The first mold body 200 has a high thermal conductivity, which helps improve the cooling efficiency and thus improve the ice making efficiency.

[0076] In some embodiments, the second mold body 500 is made of silicone, which prevents ice cubes from sticking to the inner wall of the ice making chamber 510 and helps to remove ice. For example, the silicone is made of food-grade silicone.

[0077] In some embodiments, the second mold body 500 is a heat-conducting metal member. The cooling energy of the first mold body 200 can be quickly transferred to the second mold body 500, which helps to improve the ice making efficiency.

[0078] In some embodiments, the ice-making chamber 510 is hemispherical, and the bottom of the first mold body 200 is flat, so as to produce hemispherical ice.

[0079] In some embodiments, the ice-making chamber 510 is rectangular or square, and the bottom of the first mold 200 is flat, so as to make rectangular ice or square ice.

[0080] In some embodiments, reference Figure 7 The second housing 400 includes an outer shell 410 and an inner liner 420. The inner liner 420 forms a second mounting cavity 430, and the second mold body 500 is disposed in the second mounting cavity 430. A second foaming cavity 440 is formed between the outer shell 410 and the inner liner 420. The second foaming cavity 440 is filled with foam material to improve the thermal insulation effect of the cup body 2.

[0081] In some embodiments, reference Figure 5 and Figure 7 The second installation cavity 430 includes a first second installation cavity section 431 and a second second installation cavity section 432, which are connected vertically. The first second installation cavity section 431 is located below the second second installation cavity section 432. The second mold body 500 is disposed in the first second installation cavity section 431.

[0082] The first mold body 200 is configured to be inserted into the second installation cavity section 432 when the cup body 2 is mounted on the main body 1 , so as to dock with the second mold body 500 and seal the ice-making cavity 510 .

[0083] In other words, the top position of the second mold body 500 is lower than the top position of the inner liner 420, that is, the opening position of the ice-making chamber 510 is lower than the top of the cup body 2. When the cup body 2 is installed on the main body 1, the first mold body 200 is inserted into the inner liner 420 to dock with the second mold body 500. The docking position between the first mold body 200 and the second mold body 500 is lower than the top of the cup body 2. If there is water in the ice-making chamber 510 overflowing through the docking position between the first mold body 200 and the second mold body 500, it can also prevent water from leaking from the cup body 2.

[0084] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 The cooling module 300 includes a compressor 310 , a condenser 320 and an evaporator 330 . The evaporator 330 is configured to be in contact with the first mold body 200 to cool the first mold body 200 .

[0085] In some embodiments, the refrigeration module 300 is a refrigerant heat exchange system. The output end of the compressor 310 is connected to a three-way connector 340, which forms two pipelines. One end of the three-way connector 340 is connected to the condenser 320, which is then connected in series with the filter drier 350 and the capillary tube 360. The other end of the three-way connector 340 is connected to the solenoid valve 390. The output end of the solenoid valve 390 is connected to the heating tube 370, which is connected in parallel with the output end of the capillary tube 360. The output end of the capillary tube 360 is then connected to the evaporator 330, which is then connected to the return air pipe 380, and finally returns to the compressor 310.

[0086] When ice making is in progress, the refrigeration module 300 performs refrigeration work, the evaporator 330 cools, and the solenoid valve 390 is closed.

[0087] After ice making is completed, the solenoid valve 390 is closed, and the high-temperature gas discharged from the compressor 310 flows directly through the solenoid valve 390 and the heating pipe 370 to the evaporator 330. The evaporator 330 starts to heat up, and the first mold body 200 is heated, which facilitates the separation of ice cubes in the ice making chamber 510 from the first mold body 200.

[0088] In some embodiments, reference Figure 7 The cup body 2 further includes a heating element 600 , which is configured to heat the inner container 420 so that ice cubes can escape from the ice-making chamber 510 .

[0089] After the water in the ice-making chamber 510 is iced, the refrigeration module 300 generates heat while the heating element 600 also starts to work. The temperatures of the first mold body 200 and the second mold body 500 both rise slightly, so that ice can be removed smoothly.

[0090] For example, the heating element 600 is a heating wire 610 , and the heating wire 610 is wound around the outer circumference of the inner container 420 .

[0091] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 5The first shell 100 includes a vertical portion 110 and a horizontal portion 120. The horizontal portion 120 is arranged at the top of the vertical portion 110 and extends to one side of the vertical portion 110. The compressor 310, the condenser 320, etc. are arranged in the vertical portion 110. The first mold body 200 is arranged on the horizontal portion 120. For example, the first mold body 200 is arranged on the bottom wall of the horizontal portion 120, and the first mold body 200 is exposed from the bottom of the horizontal portion 120 so that when the cup body 2 is installed, the first mold body 200 is docked with the second mold body 500.

[0092] In some embodiments, the upper portion of the first mold body 200 is located within the transverse portion 120 and the lower portion is exposed. A first foaming cavity 140 is formed within the transverse portion 120 and is filled with foaming material to improve the thermal insulation effect of the transverse portion 120.

[0093] In some embodiments, reference Figure 5 The first shell 100 is provided with an opening, for example, the bottom wall of the horizontal portion 120 is provided with an opening.

[0094] Reference Figure 8 The first mold body 200 includes a first mold body section 210 and a first mold body section 220 with an integrated structure. A step portion 230 is formed between the first mold body section 210 and the first mold body section 220. The outer diameter of the first mold body section 210 is larger than the outer diameter of the first mold body section 220, that is, the first mold body section 220 is retracted into the first mold body section 210.

[0095] The first mold body second section 220 is positioned through the opening, and the first mold body first section 210 is positioned within the first housing 100. The first mold body first section 210 is positioned within the first foaming cavity 140 of the transverse portion 120. The first mold body second section 220 is exposed downward from the opening to interface with the second mold body 500. The step portion 230 abuts against the bottom wall of the transverse portion 120 to prevent the first mold body 200 from falling out of the opening.

[0096] The evaporator 330 contacts the top of the first mold body 200 , thereby increasing the cooling area and improving the cooling effect.

[0097] The outer diameter of the first mold body second section 220 decreases from top to bottom, which facilitates the first mold body 200 to be installed into the opening from top to bottom, and facilitates the first mold body second section 220 to be inserted into the second installation cavity second section 432 of the cup body 2 from top to bottom, playing a guiding role.

[0098] In some embodiments, the first mold body section 210 is a disc-shaped structure, and the first mold body section 220 is a conical structure.

[0099] In some embodiments, the evaporator 330 is disposed in the first foaming cavity 140 , and the evaporator 330 contacts the top of the first mold section 210 to improve the cooling effect.

[0100] In some embodiments, the second shell 400 of the cup body 2 is detachably connected to the transverse portion 120 to achieve a detachable connection between the cup body 2 and the main body 1 .

[0101] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 、 Figure 3 as well as Figure 6 The first housing 100 is provided with a mounting groove 130, for example, the transverse portion 120 is provided with a mounting groove 130, and the mounting groove 130 is located at the bottom of the transverse portion 120. The mounting groove 130 surrounds the opening.

[0102] The inner circumferential wall of the mounting slot 130 is provided with a plurality of spaced-apart first limiting portions 131. Each first limiting portion 131 includes a horizontal limiting portion 132 and a vertical limiting portion 133. The horizontal limiting portion 132 extends along the circumference of the mounting slot 130, and the vertical limiting portion 133 extends along the height of the mounting slot 130. The vertical limiting portion 133 is located at one end of the horizontal limiting portion 132. An installation space 134 is formed between the horizontal limiting portion 132 and the first housing 100. The first limiting portion 131 has an L-shaped structure.

[0103] Reference Figure 6 A plurality of second limiting portions 450 are arranged at intervals on the outer peripheral wall of the second shell 400. Any second limiting portion 450 extends along the circumference of the second shell 400. The second limiting portion 450 is limited in the installation space 134 to install the cup body 2 on the main body 1.

[0104] When installing the cup body 2, the top of the cup body 2 is inserted into the installation groove 130, the first mold section 220 is inserted into the second installation cavity section 432, and the second limiting portion 450 is inserted between the two adjacent first limiting portions 131. The cup body 2 is rotated so that the second limiting portion 450 slides into the installation space 134. When the second limiting portion 450 abuts against the limiting vertical portion 133, the cup body 2 is rotated into place and the installation of the cup body 2 is completed.

[0105] When removing the cup body 2, rotate the cup body 2 in the reverse direction.

[0106] In some embodiments, the cup body 2 includes a heater 600, which requires power to operate. The cup body 2 is not equipped with a power supply, but the main body 1 is provided with one. A conductive structure is provided between the cup body 2 and the main body 1. When the cup body 2 is mounted on the main body 1, the conductive circuit of the heater 600 is connected.

[0107] In some embodiments, reference Figure 5 , a first conductive portion is provided at the bottom of the transverse portion 120; Figure 6A second conductive portion is provided on the top of the second shell 400, and the heating element 600 is connected to the second conductive portion.

[0108] After the cup body 2 is mounted on the main body 1 , the first conductive portion contacts the second conductive portion, thereby connecting the conductive circuit of the heating element 600 .

[0109] In some embodiments, the first conductive portion is disposed in the mounting groove 130 . When the cup body 2 is mounted on the main body 1 , the top of the cup body 2 is inserted into the mounting groove 130 , so that the first conductive portion and the second conductive portion can be in better contact.

[0110] In some embodiments, two first conductive parts are provided and are spaced apart along the circumference of the mounting groove 130. Two second conductive parts are provided and are spaced apart along the circumference of the top of the cup body 2.

[0111] In some embodiments, the first conductive portion is a conductive spring pin 710, and the second conductive portion is a conductive sheet 720. Both ends of the heating wire 610 are connected to the conductive sheet 720. The motor is connected to the conductive sheet 720 via a circuit.

[0112] After the cup body 2 is mounted on the main body 1, the conductive spring pins 710 are in contact with the conductive sheet 720. The cooperation between the conductive spring pins 710 and the conductive sheet 720 helps to improve the circuit reliability.

[0113] In some embodiments, reference Figure 5 and Figure 8 The step portion 230 is provided with a recess 240 , and the recess 240 is configured to make way for the conductive spring pin 710 .

[0114] In some embodiments, the ice making process of the ice making machine includes:

[0115] Pour a certain amount of water into the cup body 2, so that the ice-making chamber 510 is filled with water;
