Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of snow melting machines for making ice drinks such as snow mud, and particularly relates to a snow melting machine barrel. Background Art

[0002] When the snow melter is working, the rotating reamer transports the food in the barrel to the discharge port at one end of the barrel. Since the cross-sectional shape of the existing barrel cavity tends to be consistent along its length, when the food is cooled and solidified into a muddy or paste-like state, it is easily carried by the reamer to rotate in the barrel cavity. This causes the food in various parts of the barrel cavity to be in a solidified position, making it difficult to mix. As a result, the temperature and shape of the food in the barrel cavity are inconsistent, and the food discharged from the discharge port varies greatly, resulting in a poor experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved and the technical task proposed by the present invention are to overcome the defects of the existing snow melt machine in that the food is easily carried by the reamer to rotate in the inner cavity of the barrel when the snow melt machine is working, resulting in large differences in the food discharged from the discharge port and a poor user experience. A snow melt machine barrel is provided, which aims to make the food in the barrel be evenly mixed under the stirring of the reamer, and the food discharged from the discharge port maintain a consistent shape and taste, thereby improving the user experience.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the snow melter barrel of the present invention includes a barrel body, which has an inner cavity for accommodating food and cooperating with a reamer to push the food from the back to the front. The front lower part of the barrel body is provided with a discharge port that can be opened or closed as needed. A first guide wall is provided between the front wall and the top wall of the inner cavity. The first guide wall is inclined to guide the food from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the inner cavity.

[0005] Accordingly, the cross-sectional shape of the inner cavity of the barrel changes at the first guide wall, which can prevent the food that has been cooled and solidified into a muddy or pasty state from being carried by the reamer to rotate in the inner cavity of the barrel. Instead, it is guided by the first guide wall from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the inner cavity, thereby achieving the muddy or pasty food to circulate and mix back and forth in the barrel, achieving consistent temperature and shape, reducing the differences discharged from the discharge port, maintaining a consistent taste, and increasing the experience of consumers or users.

[0006] Preferably, the front end of the first guide wall is lower than the rear end, and an expansion space is formed at the rear side of the first guide wall. The expansion space provides space for muddy or pasty food to move from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the inner cavity, making the first guide wall guide the food more smoothly.

[0007] Preferably, the inner wall of the middle portion of the inner cavity extends forward and backward. This is reflected in the cross-sectional shape of the middle portion of the inner cavity being more uniform along its length, thereby maintaining a larger space than that at the first guide wall, providing space for muddy or pasty food to move from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the inner cavity.

[0008] Preferably, a second guide wall is provided at the upper rear portion of the inner cavity, and the second guide wall is inclined to guide the food from the upper rear portion of the inner cavity to the rear end of the inner cavity. In this way, muddy or paste-like food from the front end of the reamer can be guided to the rear end of the inner cavity, so that the food is circulated and mixed in the barrel under the stirring and pushing of the reamer.

[0009] Preferably, the second guide wall is located at the junction of the rear wall, the top wall and one of the side walls of the inner cavity, which facilitates the rotation of the reamer to promote the food to circulate and mix in the barrel under the stirring and pushing of the reamer.

[0010] Preferably, the second guide wall intersects with the rear wall, the top wall, and one side wall, thereby defining the posture of the second guide wall and guiding the food to the rear end of the inner cavity more smoothly.

[0011] Preferably, the barrel comprises an outer barrel and a rear cover, wherein the rear cover is assembled at the rear end of the outer barrel, and the rear wall of the inner cavity and the second guide wall are arranged at the rear cover. This facilitates the configuration of the barrel structure, makes the barrel easy to manufacture, and facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the reamer and the barrel.

[0012] Preferably, one side wall of the inner cavity comprises an extrusion wall. This is used to prevent the muddy or pasty food from rotating with the reamer, but is pushed forward by the reamer.

[0013] Preferably, the squeezing wall extends from the front wall to the rear wall of the inner cavity. Since the pureed or pasty food is guided to circulate in the barrel, the squeezing wall extending forward and backward can prevent the pureed or pasty food from rotating with the reamer at any position in the barrel, ensuring that the food is pushed forward by the reamer.

[0014] Preferably, the cylinder comprises an outer cylinder and an inner component, wherein the inner component is located inside the outer cylinder and is attached to the inner wall of the outer cylinder, and the first guide wall and the extrusion wall are provided on the inner component. This facilitates the configuration of the cylinder structure and makes the cylinder easy to manufacture.

[0015] Preferably, the discharge port is connected to the inner cavity of the barrel through a spiral channel. The spiral channel is used to guide the food to be discharged from the discharge port.

[0016] The present invention provides a first guide wall between the front wall and the top wall of the barrel cavity. The first guide wall is inclined to guide the food from the front end of the cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the cavity. Accordingly, the cross-sectional shape of the barrel cavity changes at the first guide wall, which can prevent the food that has been cooled and solidified into a muddy or pasty state from being carried by the reamer to rotate in the barrel cavity. Instead, the food is guided by the first guide wall from the front end of the cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the cavity, thereby achieving the muddy or pasty food to circulate and mix back and forth in the barrel, achieving a consistent temperature and shape, reducing the difference in discharge from the discharge port, maintaining a consistent taste, and enhancing the consumer or user experience.

[0017] The utility model further configures the inner wall in the middle of the inner cavity to extend forward and backward, thereby maintaining a space larger than that at the first guide wall, providing space guarantee for muddy and pasty food to move from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the inner cavity.

[0018] The present invention also provides a second guide wall at the upper rear portion of the inner cavity. The second guide wall is inclined to guide food from the upper rear portion to the rear end of the inner cavity. Thus, muddy or paste-like food from the front end of the reamer can be guided to the rear end of the inner cavity, promoting the food to circulate and mix within the barrel under the stirring and pushing of the reamer.

[0019] The utility model also configures an extrusion wall on one side wall of the inner cavity, which is used to prevent muddy and pasty food from rotating with the reamer, and instead is pushed forward by the reamer. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0032] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are 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 are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] The terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the description and claims of the present utility model are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a method or product that includes a series of technical features is not necessarily limited to those technical features clearly listed, and may also include other technical features that are not clearly listed and can be included in the method or product.

[0034] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] Figure 1 A snow melting machine is shown, which includes a body 100 and a barrel 200. Generally, the barrel 200 can be removed from the body 100 for easy cleaning.

[0037] Figure 2-6The structure of the barrel is shown. The barrel 200 comprises a barrel body, which is composed of a front wall 202, a rear wall 207, a top wall 203, a bottom wall 213, and two side walls 208. The bottom wall 213 is arc-shaped and transitions tangentially with the side walls, and with a rounded corner to the top wall 203. The rear wall 207 is provided with a through hole 204 for fitting over the evaporator 400 when mounted on the main body. The barrel body has an inner cavity for holding food and, with the aid of a reamer, pushing the food from back to front. This cavity is enclosed by the front wall 202, rear wall 207, top wall 203, bottom wall 213, and two side walls 208. A discharge port 201, which can be opened or closed as needed, is provided at the front lower portion of the barrel body. A first guide wall 204 is provided between the front wall 202 and the top wall 203 of the inner cavity. The first guide wall 204 is inclined to guide food from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper and rear ends. Accordingly, the cross-section of the inner cavity of the barrel gradually becomes smaller forward at the first guide wall, which can prevent the food that has been cooled and solidified into a muddy or pasty state from being carried by the reamer to rotate in the inner cavity of the barrel. Instead, it is guided by the first guide wall from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the inner cavity, thereby realizing the muddy or pasty food to circulate and mix back and forth in the barrel, achieving consistent temperature and shape, reducing the difference discharged from the discharge port, maintaining a consistent taste, and increasing the experience of consumers or users.

[0038] In the illustrated structure, the front end of the first guide wall 204 is lower than the rear end, and the barrel has a greater length. Therefore, an expansion space 205 is formed on the rear side of the first guide wall. The existence of the expansion space provides space for muddy and pasty foods to move from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the inner cavity, making the first guide wall guide the food more smoothly. The expansion space 205 is the middle part of the inner cavity. The inner wall of the middle part of the inner cavity extends front to back. This is reflected in the cross-sectional shape of the middle part of the inner cavity tending to be consistent along its length direction, thereby maintaining a space larger than that at the first guide wall, providing space guarantee for muddy and pasty foods to move from the front end of the inner cavity to the upper part and the rear part of the inner cavity.

[0039] In the illustrated structure, a second guide wall 206 is located at the upper rear portion of the inner chamber. Separated from the first guide wall 204 by the center of the inner chamber, the second guide wall 206 is angled to guide food from the upper rear portion to the rear end. This allows muddy or paste-like food from the front end of the reamer to be directed toward the rear end of the inner chamber, promoting circulation and mixing within the barrel as the reamer stirs and pushes the food. The second guide wall 206 is located at the junction of the rear wall 207, top wall 203, and one side wall 208 of the inner chamber. This facilitates the rotation of the reamer, encouraging the food to circulate and mix within the barrel as the reamer stirs and pushes the food. Furthermore, the second guide wall 206 intersects with the rear wall 207, top wall 203, and one side wall 208. This defines the orientation of the second guide wall, allowing food to be guided more smoothly toward the rear end of the inner chamber. In other embodiments, such as when the barrel is shorter, the middle portion of the inner cavity serving as the expansion space may be omitted, so that the second guide wall is adjacent to the first guide wall and connected to the latter as a whole.

[0040] In the illustrated structure, one sidewall of the inner chamber includes a squeeze wall 209. This prevents pureed or pasty food from rotating with the reamer, allowing it to be pushed forward by the reamer. Squeeze wall 209 extends from the front wall 202 of the inner chamber to the rear wall 207. Because pureed or pasty food is guided to circulate within the barrel, the extended squeeze wall can prevent it from rotating with the reamer at any location within the barrel, ensuring that it is pushed forward by the reamer.

[0041] The posture and position of the aforementioned second guide wall 206 and extrusion wall 209 are related to the rotation direction of the reamer 300. Specifically, the second guide wall and extrusion wall both face the food being pushed, forcing it to change its direction of movement. When the rotation and rotation direction of the reamer change, the direction of movement of the food being pushed by the reamer also changes, and the posture and position of the second guide wall and extrusion wall change accordingly.

[0042] In the illustrated structure, the barrel comprises an outer barrel 210, an inner member 212, and a rear cover 211. The inner member 212 is positioned within the outer barrel 210 and abuts against its inner wall. The first guide wall 204 and the extrusion wall 209 are located within the inner member 212. The rear cover 211 is assembled to the rear end of the outer barrel 210. The rear wall 207 of the inner cavity and the second guide wall 206 are located within the rear cover 211. This facilitates the configuration of the barrel structure, easing its manufacture and facilitating assembly and disassembly of the reamer and barrel. Given the presence of the inner member and rear cover, the first guide wall, extrusion wall, and second guide wall can be positioned within either the inner member or the rear cover as needed.

[0043] The barrel of the illustrated structure, the reamer 300 is as shown Figure 5When rotating clockwise from the perspective shown, the reamer pushes the food forward, driven by the spiral direction of the reamer and the squeeze wall, preventing muddy or pasty food from rotating with the reamer. Once pushed to the front of the cavity, the food is blocked by front wall 202 and forced upward. Guided by first guide wall 204, it moves from the front of the cavity toward the upper and rear portions, passing through expansion space 205 and reaching second guide wall 206. This guide wall guides the food from the upper rear portion to the rear end. This forces the food to circulate and mix within the barrel, and is then cooled by the evaporator in the center of the reamer, reaching a consistent temperature. Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6 The dotted line marked with an arrow represents the path of food circulation from the front end of the inner cavity to the back end. During this time, when the discharge port is opened through valve 217 to discharge food, as long as the flow rate of food discharged from the discharge port is less than the flow rate of food pushed by the reamer, the circulation and mixing of food in the barrel will continue. The food in the barrel is evenly mixed by the stirring of the reamer, and the food discharged from the discharge port maintains a consistent shape and taste, improving the user experience.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] like Figure 7 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the discharge port 201 is connected to the inner cavity of the barrel through a spiral channel 215, and the spiral channel 215 extends from the lower right part of the front wall of the barrel to the middle position of the bottom of the front wall. When the snow melter is working, the spiral reamer in the barrel rotates to push the paste-like and muddy food forward, and the spiral channel cooperates with the spiral reamer to push the food to guide the food to be discharged smoothly from the discharge port. In this case, a discharge mask 216 is configured on the front wall of the barrel 200, and the discharge port 101, the lower part of the valve 217 and the spiral channel 215 are covered by the discharge mask, and the lower part of the discharge mask has a discharge channel. Prevent foreign objects from touching the discharge port and ensure that the food is clean and hygienic. In addition, since the food is guided to be discharged outside the discharge port by the spiral channel, there is a possibility that the food will splash around the discharge port, and the discharge mask can block the splashed food.

[0046] The rest of the structure of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1 and will not be described in detail.
