When a component is considered to be "connected to" another component, it may be directly connected to the other component or there may also be a central component. When a component is considered to be "set on" another component, it may be directly set on the other component or there may also be a central component. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.

[0022] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this invention are intended only to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0023] Please also see Figures 1 to 4 A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides an indoor suspended snowmaking machine with a simple overall structure, easy hoisting, and no requirements for the installation location. It is suitable for making snow in a designated area and has a large snowmaking capacity, making it particularly suitable for indoor snowmaking. The specific structure includes a mounting assembly, a fan assembly, and a snowmaking assembly. The mounting assembly includes a mounting block 1 and two fan bases 2. The mounting block 1 and the fan bases 2 are fixedly connected by an inclined column 3, respectively. The inclined column 3 is cylindrical. The fan bases 2 are fixedly mounted on the left and right sides of the mounting block 1 through the inclined column 3. A fan assembly and a snowmaking assembly are respectively mounted on the front and rear ends of each fan base 2. An air duct 15 is provided in the middle of the fan base 2 to guide the wind generated by the fan assembly to the snowmaking assembly, blowing out the ice crystals and snow nuclei ejected from the snowmaking assembly, and producing a falling snow effect.

[0024] Specifically, the fan base 2 is cylindrical in structure, with a deflector 4 at one end. The fan assembly is fixedly mounted outside the deflector 4. An air duct 15 inside the fan base 2 connects to the end of the guide trough. The deflector 4 directs the air generated by the fan assembly into the air duct 15, which then guides it to the snowmaking assembly and blows it out from the end of the snowmaking assembly.

[0025] Specifically, the fan assembly fan 5 is mainly used to generate wind power, including a fan 5, an outer cover 6 and a fan cover 7. The fan cover 7 is fixedly connected to the outer cover 6. The outer cover 6 is fixed on the fan base 2. The fan 5 is fixedly arranged on the inner side of the outer cover 6.

[0026] Specifically, the snowmaking assembly includes an outer ring 8, a nozzle assembly 9, and a three-hole ring sleeve 10. The three-hole ring sleeve 10 is composed of three spaced-apart rings, with an inner ring 11 fixed to the inner ring of the three-hole ring sleeve 10. The three-hole ring sleeve 10 is fixed to the inner side of the outer ring 8 at intervals. The inner ring 11 is connected to the air duct 15 in the fan base 2. The nozzle assembly 9 is fixed to the three-hole ring sleeve 10, with the nozzle head of the nozzle assembly 9 facing outward. The outer ring 8 is fixed to the other end of the fan base 2, opposite the fan assembly. The three-hole ring sleeve, outer ring 8, and inner ring 11 together form two chambers: one for water and one for air.

[0027] Specifically, a groove is further provided on the outside of the three-hole ring sleeve 10 , and a sealing ring is provided in the groove. The sealing ring fits with the outer ring 8 to enhance the sealing between the three-hole ring sleeve 10 and the outer ring 8 .

[0028] Specifically, a water pipe is provided inside the mounting assembly, a water inlet is provided on the mounting block 1, a water hole is provided on the side where the three-hole ring sleeve 10 is connected to the fan base 2, and the water pipe is connected to the water inlet and the water hole to guide the water for snowmaking into the water cavity formed between the three-hole ring sleeve 10 and the inner ring 11 and the outer ring 8. The water inlet end of the nozzle assembly 9 is set in the water cavity, and the nozzle assembly 9 absorbs the water and air in the water cavity and forms ice crystal snow cores through atomization and sprays them out, and finally falls with the wind in the air duct 15.

[0029] Specifically, a heating rod is further provided in the fan base 2 to prevent the water in the water pipe from freezing due to the low ambient temperature.

[0030] Specifically, the water pipe of the mounting block 1 is also connected to a pressure regulating valve 12 and a water pressure gauge 13. The water pressure gauge 13 is used to display the water pressure in the internal water pipe. When the water pressure is too low or too high, it is adjusted through the pressure regulating valve 12 to ensure the internal water pressure is stable.

[0031] Specifically, a plurality of lifting rings 14 are fixedly connected to the upper side of the mounting block 1, and the lifting rings 14 facilitate hanging and fixing the entire machine.

[0032] Furthermore, during installation, the snowmaker is first suspended at a designated location within the snow field. The external hydraulic and air pressure devices are connected to mounting block 1. The water and air pumps are then started. The pressure regulating valve 12 on mounting block 1 is adjusted. Once the water pressure gauge 13 reaches the rated pressure, the snowmaker can be used normally. During operation, the fan assembly generates wind, which is blown through the air duct 15 and out through the center of the snowmaking assembly. The ice crystals and snow nuclei produced by the nozzle assembly in the snowmaking assembly are carried by the wind and fall, creating a falling snow effect. The entire machine is easy to install and provides excellent snow-discharging performance.

[0033] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present invention. All equivalent changes or modifications completed under the technical spirit suggested by the present invention should fall within the patent scope covered by the present invention.
