[0002] As ice cream becomes more and more popular, people have more and more requirements for the taste and shape of ice cream. Currently, the conventional ice cream machine puffing device on the market is a built-in puffing tube.

[0003] The main function of a traditional built-in expanding tube is to inject air during the ice cream making process, making the ice cream slurry fluffier. Air enters the mixture through the air inlet holes in the tube, forming bubbles. These bubbles gradually expand during the stirring and cooling process, separating the water and fat molecules in the mixture, creating a fluffy structure.

[0004] However, the traditional built-in puffing tube has technical problems such as a simple shape, a low ice cream puffing rate, and a general puffing effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above technical problems in the related art, the present invention proposes an expansion tube for an external air pump of an ice cream machine, which can overcome the above shortcomings of the prior art.

[0009] Furthermore, a bending portion is formed at the upper end portion of the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe, and the bending portion of the air inlet pipe and the bending portion of the air outlet pipe are arranged in opposite directions.

[0010] Furthermore, the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe are arranged side by side, and the two are Y-shaped as a whole.

[0011] Furthermore, the feed hole is communicated with the tube body and extends into the refrigeration cylinder of the ice cream machine.

[0012] Furthermore, the ice cream slurry entering through the feed hole and the air pumped in through the air inlet pipe are completely mixed and filled in the refrigeration cylinder of the ice cream machine.

[0013] Furthermore, one end of the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe on the same side are both connected to the refrigeration cylinder of the ice cream machine, and the air outlet pipe is used to discharge excess air in the refrigeration cylinder of the ice cream machine.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: through the optimized and improved design of the product of the present invention, the expansion rate of the ice cream slurry is further improved, the ice cream produced has a dense and soft taste and a better appearance, thereby achieving the beneficial effects of improving the taste of ice cream and increasing the market competitiveness of ice cream machines.
