When adding different raw materials, such as bottles of cola, Sprite, or milk tea, the raw material bottles can be connected to the upper connection end 11 of the discharge pipe 1 using the adapter body 4 to transfer the raw materials. First, a small thread 12 can be set on the upper side of the inner wall of the discharge tube 1, and then a large thread 13 can be set on the upper side of the inner wall of the connecting end 11 to set the connection structure between the discharge tube 1 and the adapter body 4. An outward expansion cover 2 is provided on the top of the connecting end 11 to facilitate the pouring of raw materials. Then, a locking component 3 is provided on the lower side of the inner part of the connecting end 11. When the adapter body 4 is connected to the connecting end 11, the locking component 3 can be used to lock the outside of the adapter body 4, limit the position of the adapter body 4, and increase the connection stability between the adapter body 4 and the discharge tube 1; then, the adapter body 4 is provided with two parts, an insertion end 41 and an access end 42, and the access end 42 can be used in conjunction with the small thread 12 to realize the connection between the adapter body 4 and the discharge tube 1. When the raw material bottle is connected When the adapter body 4 is connected, the bottle mouth of the raw material bottle can be passed through the insertion end 41, and the insertion end 41 and the raw material bottle are penetrated and connected through the groove of the bucket-shaped structure, and a threaded strip used in conjunction with the raw material bottle can be provided in the groove; then a clamping sleeve 5 is provided on the top of the insertion end 41 to pass through the insertion end 41. When the raw material bottle is inserted into the insertion end 41, the clamping sleeve 5 will be squeezed to press it into the insertion end 41, and the gap between the raw material bottle and the insertion end 41 will be clamped to limit the outer side of raw material bottles of different diameters, so as to achieve stable connection between raw material bottles of different diameters and the adapter body 4, which is convenient for the bottle bodies of cola, Sprite, and milk tea to input raw materials into the snow ice equipment. Through the setting of the insertion end 41 and the clamping sleeve 5, it is convenient to connect raw material bottles of different diameters to the adapter body 4.

[0028] The cam 32 is screwed onto the top of the adapter 31 so that the adapter 31 can be tightened to the outside of the adapter 31.

[0029] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the connection between the adapter body 4 and the feed pipe 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the narrow end of the transition bucket 31 will be set close to the discharge pipe 1, and the transition bucket 31 and the discharge pipe 1 will be set through. Then, the narrow end of the transition bucket 31 and the discharge pipe 1 will be set to the same size, which is very beneficial for the connection between the adapter body 4 and the discharge pipe 1.
