Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigeration equipment accessories, in particular to a stainless steel ice-making machine evaporator. Background Art

[0002] An ice maker is a refrigeration machine that cools water through an evaporator, cooled by the refrigerant in the refrigeration system, to produce ice. As a key component in an ice maker, the evaporator works by evaporating high-pressure refrigerant liquid through a throttling device within the evaporator tubes. The vaporization absorbs heat to achieve a cooling effect. The evaporator tubes then transfer the cooling energy to the ice mold in the ice maker, causing the water flowing into the ice molds to freeze and form ice cubes.

[0003] However, the main structure of the existing ice making evaporator is made of copper, which has high manufacturing cost. In addition, the copper parts need to be electroplated with metals such as nickel. The electroplating layer is easy to fall off after long-term use. This electroplating method is difficult to pass food safety inspection. Based on this, the utility model designs a stainless steel ice making machine evaporator to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a stainless steel ice maker evaporator with a novel structure, which can produce cylindrical ice cubes with high transparency. The evaporator is made of stainless steel, the cost is much lower than that of copper parts, and no electroplating is required.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a stainless steel ice maker evaporator, which includes an evaporator body, an evaporation tube and a plurality of cylindrical ice molds. The plurality of cylindrical ice molds are made of stainless steel, and the bottom of the cylindrical ice mold is welded to the evaporation tube.

[0006] Preferably, the evaporation tube is made of a stainless steel flat tube, with refrigerant inlet and outlet pipes welded to both ends, and the cylindrical ice mold is welded to the larger refrigeration surface of the stainless steel flat tube.

[0007] Preferably, the cylindrical ice mold is made of stainless steel and has air holes on the top.

[0008] Preferably, the cylindrical ice mold is made of stainless steel by integral stretching.

[0009] Preferably, the cylindrical ice mold is made of a stainless steel round tube welded with a stainless steel disc.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the stainless steel ice maker evaporator can be used to make cylindrical ice cubes with high transparency. It is made of stainless steel, is easy to process and weld, has a much lower cost than copper parts, and does not require electroplating. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
