Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smoothie machine technology, specifically a mixing structure for a smoothie machine. Background Technology
[0002] Chinese Patent Application No. CN202410556762.3 discloses a condensing structure for a cold drink equipment and a snow melting machine. The cold drink equipment includes a shell assembly and a fixing assembly. The fixing assembly includes a chassis. The condensing structure of the cold drink equipment includes a condenser. A support assembly is provided inside the shell assembly. The bottom of the support assembly is fixed to the chassis. The support assembly is provided with a mounting part that matches the shape of the condenser. The condenser includes a condensing straight pipe containing refrigerant and a condensing elbow. The condensing elbow is located on the upper and lower sides of the condenser. The refrigerant flows in the condensing straight pipe from top to bottom or from bottom to top. The condenser is fixed to the mounting part. The left and right sides of the condenser abut against the left and right side walls of the mounting part, respectively. The aforementioned stirring assembly can scrape off the ice buildup on the condenser surface during rotation and mix the scraped ice with the liquid to make slush. However, in actual use, the ice on the condenser surface condenses quickly. Due to its assembly position and rotation speed, the stirring assembly cannot scrape off all the ice on the condenser surface. As the condensation time increases, the volume of the ice gradually increases, eventually causing the stirring assembly to fail to effectively mix the ice with the liquid, thus affecting the slush production effect. Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content
