[0026] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0027] In order to help those skilled in the art better understand the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," and so on in the specification and claims of this utility model and the aforementioned drawings are used to distinguish similar items and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or precedence. In addition, the terms "including," "having," and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this is an ice-making device of the present invention, the main function of which is to initially cool the ice bucket 11 through the cooperation of the compressor 16 and the condenser to produce ice water, and then to perform secondary processing on the ice water through the cooperation of the compressor 16 and the condenser on the ice box 13, thereby improving the overall energy efficiency ratio and improving the efficiency of ice making.

[0030] The utility model discloses an ice-making device, including a base 10, on which an ice-making box 13, an ice bucket 11, a compressor 16 and a condenser are installed. The compressor 16 connects the ice-making box 13 and the ice bucket 11. The compressor 16 adopts a common compressor 16 on the market and can be selected according to actual needs. The compressor 16 and the condenser cooperate to cool the medium in the ice-making box 13 and the ice bucket 11. Water for making ice enters the ice bucket 11 and is cooled by the compressor 16. The water in the ice bucket 11 is cooled to form ice water. The ice-making box 13 and the ice bucket 11 are connected by a connecting pipe. When ice making is needed, the ice water in the ice bucket 11 enters the ice-making box 13 through the connecting pipe. A water pump or other components with the same effect can be provided on the connecting pipe as a power source to extract the ice water.

[0031] Since the compressor 16 will generate high temperature when working for a long time, the compressor 16 needs to be cooled. A water cooling system 15 is provided on the base 10. The water cooling system 15 adopts a structure commonly used in the prior art, which will not be described here. The water cooling system 15 is used to cool the compressor 16, effectively reduce the operating temperature of the compressor 16, reduce the damage to the internal parts of the compressor 16 caused by thermal stress generated by high temperature, and extend the service life of the compressor 16. The water cooling system 15 generally uses water as a medium to reduce the impact on the external environment.

[0032] Connecting parts 18 are provided on both sides of the ice box 13, and connecting holes 17 are provided on the connecting parts 18. A bracket 14 is installed on the base 10 by bolts, and a matching hole is provided on the bracket 14. The screws pass through the connecting holes 17 and are screwed into the matching holes. The connection between the ice box 13 and the base 10 is realized through the bracket 14, thereby improving the stability of the connection.

[0033] An ice outlet is provided on one side of the ice making box 13, and the ice outlet is communicated with the interior of the ice making box 13. An end cover 12 is provided on the ice making box 13, and the end cover 12 is covered at the ice outlet. An ice outlet channel is provided inside the end cover 12, and the ice outlet channel is communicated with the ice outlet. When the ice cubes are discharged from the ice outlet, they are discharged out of the ice making box 13 through the ice outlet channel. The end cover 12 is directly covered at the ice outlet, which can effectively prevent dust, foreign matter, etc. from entering the ice outlet, and keep the ice outlet clean and hygienic.

[0034] The end cover 12 includes a buffer portion 21 with a constricted shape and a drop portion 22 connected to the buffer portion 21. When ice cubes fall from the ice outlet into the ice outlet channel, the ice cubes pass through the buffer portion 21 with a constricted shape, and the ice cubes can adjust their position in the buffer portion 21. When they enter the drop portion 22, they can be smoothly discharged out of the ice box 13 along the drop portion 22. The edge of the drop portion 22 is bent to form a mounting portion 20. The mounting portion 20 is evenly provided with mounting holes 19. The mounting holes 19 cooperate with the connecting parts. The connecting parts can be screws, which facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the end cover 12 and other components, thereby realizing subsequent work after the ice cubes are discharged.

[0035] Working principle:

[0036] The compressor 16 sucks in low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas and compresses it into high-temperature, high-pressure gas. The high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas then enters the condenser, where it exchanges heat with the external environment (usually air or water), releases heat and condenses into a high-pressure liquid. When the high-pressure liquid passes through a throttling device (such as an expansion valve), its pressure and temperature drop sharply, turning it into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid. The low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant liquid enters the evaporator (ice bucket), where it evaporates rapidly, absorbing heat from the surrounding environment, thereby cooling the evaporator and its surrounding objects. The water in the ice bucket becomes ice water, or the ice water in the ice box turns into ice cubes. The evaporated refrigerant gas is again sucked in by the compressor 16, starting a new cycle.

[0037] The above are only specific embodiments of the present invention, but the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent substitutions, or modifications based on the present invention that solve essentially the same technical problems and achieve essentially the same technical effects are included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
