Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of tube ice machine equipment, and specifically relates to an ice cutting device for tube ice machines. Background Technology

[0002] Tube ice machines are efficient and professional ice-making equipment widely used in food, medical, chemical, and cold chain logistics industries. Through advanced refrigeration technology and a unique pipe design, they can continuously and stably produce hard, regularly shaped tubular ice blocks. These tubular ice blocks are not only easy to store and transport, but also melt slowly, effectively maintaining the freshness and temperature stability of refrigerated goods. Tube ice machines offer advantages such as high automation, ease of operation, energy saving, and environmental friendliness. Their ice-making process is fast and continuous, greatly improving production efficiency. At the same time, the internal cleaning and maintenance of the equipment are relatively simple, ensuring the hygienic quality of the ice blocks.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Patent CN220229656U discloses a gear transmission mechanism for a tube ice machine, including a reducer drive wheel and an ice-cutting driven wheel that meshes and drives with the reducer drive wheel; it also includes an ice-cutting main shaft, an ice-cutting bearing seat, an ice-cutting bearing seat fixing bracket for fixing the ice-cutting bearing seat, and an ice-spinning disc for spinning ice, all coaxially connected to the ice-cutting driven wheel; the ice-spinning disc is located below the ice-cutting driven wheel; the ice-cutting bearing seat and the ice-cutting bearing seat fixing bracket are located between the ice-cutting driven wheel and the ice-spinning disc; a plurality of ice-cutting blades for cutting ice are provided on the ice-cutting driven wheel; a plurality of hollow holes are densely arranged on the ice-cutting blades and the ice-spinning disc; the reducer drive wheel is also coaxially connected to the reducer main shaft.

[0004] Although the ice-cutting structure of the tube ice machine mentioned above has a good transmission effect, it still has some shortcomings in actual use. For example, in the traditional tube ice machine ice-cutting structure, the ice-cutting blade is connected to the ice-cutting driven wheel and the ice-cutting main shaft as a whole. Once the ice-cutting blade is damaged, it is difficult to disassemble and replace the blade part separately. Utility Model Content

[0024] refer to Figures 1 to 5The ice-cutting device for a tube ice machine described in this embodiment includes: an ice outlet bucket 1, an ice outlet 2 on the outer side of the ice outlet bucket 1, an ice-cutting blade ring 9 and an ice-spinning disc 7 rotatably connected to the inner side of the ice outlet bucket 1, a connecting shaft 8 fixedly installed at the center of the ice-spinning disc 7, a mounting post 16 fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting shaft 8, a lower blade 6, a pad 10 and an upper blade 5 sequentially inserted into the outer side of the mounting post 16 from bottom to top, and a locking nut 11 threadedly connected to the outer side of the upper end of the mounting post 16. A support block 18 is welded to the inside of the ice bucket 1. Positioning posts 19 are symmetrically fixed to the upper end of the support block 18. The upper end of the positioning post 19 is inserted into the upper cutter 5 or the lower cutter 6. Fixing bolts 12 are provided on the inner sides of both the upper cutter 5 and the lower cutter 6. Both the upper cutter 5 and the lower cutter 6 are fixedly installed via the fixing bolts 12 and the positioning posts 19. A drive mechanism 21 is provided at the lower end of the ice-discharging tray 7. When replacing the upper cutter 5 and the lower cutter 6 in the ice bucket 1, only the ice bucket 1 part needs to be replaced. After removing the upper blade 5 and lower blade 6, remove the limiting pin 14 from the locking hole 17, then remove the locking nut 11 on the mounting post 16. Finally, disassemble the fixing bolt 12 at the support block 18 of the ice-cutting blade ring 9 step by step. Then, the upper blade 5 and lower blade 6 in the ice-cutting blade ring 9 can be removed and replaced. When installing the upper blade 5 and lower blade 6, first insert the lower blade 6 into the mounting post 16 of the connecting shaft 8 and insert it into the corresponding support block 18 of the ice-cutting blade ring 9. Fix it with the fixing bolt 12, then insert the pad 10 and then insert the upper blade 5. Then, fix the upper blade 5 on the mounting post 16 of the connecting shaft 8 in the same way. Finally, lock it on the mounting post 16 with the locking nut 11. This makes it easy to install and use the upper blade 5 and lower blade 6 on the ice-cutting blade ring 9. The upper blade 5 and lower blade 6 are shaped like a bow. Traditionally, they are fan-shaped structures with four blades in total on the upper and lower layers. This is not only troublesome to produce but also difficult to weld.

[0025] The drive mechanism 21 includes a rotating rod 211, which is rotatably connected to the lower end of the ice outlet bucket 1. The upper end of the rotating rod 211 is fixedly installed at the center of the lower end of the ice-spinning disc 7. The lower end of the rotating rod 211 passes through the bottom of the ice outlet bucket 1. A reducer 214 is fixedly installed on the outside of the ice outlet bucket 1. A sprocket 212 is fixedly installed on both the output end of the reducer 214 and the lower end of the rotating rod 211. The sprocket 212 at the output end of the reducer 214 and the sprocket 212 at the lower end of the rotating rod 211 are meshed with the same chain. 213. The ice-cutting ring blade is mounted on the top of the connecting shaft 8 at the center of the ice-spinning disc 7 via the upper blade 5 and the lower blade 6. The reducer 214 drives the lower sprocket 212 of the rotating rod 211 to rotate via the output sprocket 212. This causes the ice-spinning disc 7 connected to the rotating rod 211 and the ice-cutting ring blade with the upper blade 5 and the lower blade 6 connected to the ice-spinning disc 7 via the connecting shaft 8 to run, thus cutting and removing ice. This structure achieves a transmission effect and facilitates the maintenance of subsequent transmission components.

By opening the locking hole 17 on the inner side of the mounting post 16, the locking nut 11 is fixed on the mounting post 16. The elastic limiting pin 14 is inserted into the locking hole 17, which can conveniently limit the locking nut 11 and prevent it from loosening and falling off the mounting post 16.

[0027] refer to Figure 2 The upper cutter 5, the lower cutter 6, and the pad 10 are all provided with positioning holes 15 on their inner sides. The upper cutter 5, the lower cutter 6, and the pad 10 are all inserted into the mounting post 16 through the positioning holes 15. By providing positioning holes 15 on the inner sides of the upper cutter 5, the lower cutter 6, and the pad 10, it is convenient to position and insert the upper cutter 5, the lower cutter 6, and the pad 10 into the mounting post 16.

[0028] refer to Figure 2 The upper cutter 5 and the lower cutter 6 are both provided with countersunk holes 13 on their inner sides. The fixing bolts 12 are located inside the countersunk holes 13. By providing countersunk holes 13 on the inner sides of the upper cutter 5 and the lower cutter 6, the fixing bolts 12 can be easily connected and installed through the upper cutter 5 or the lower cutter 6 to the positioning post 19 on the support block 18.

[0029] refer to Figure 4 The upper end of the positioning post 19 is provided with a screw groove 20. The threaded end of the fixing bolt 12 passes through the upper cutter 5 or the lower cutter 6 and the screw groove 20 of the positioning post 19 for fixed installation. By providing a screw groove 20 at the upper end of the positioning post 19, it is convenient to fix the fixing bolt 12 through the upper cutter 5 or the lower cutter 6 and install it with the positioning post 19.

[0030] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The support block 18 of the lower half of the ice-cutting blade ring 9 corresponds to the lower blade 6, and the support block 18 of the upper half of the ice-cutting blade ring 9 corresponds to the upper blade 5. By having the support block 18 of the lower half of the ice-cutting blade ring 9 correspond to the lower blade 6, and the support block 18 of the upper half of the ice-cutting blade ring 9 correspond to the upper blade 5, it is convenient for the upper blade 5 or the lower blade 6 to be inserted into the mounting post 16 of the connecting shaft 8 and then inserted into and installed into the positioning post 19 of the support block 18 in the ice-cutting blade ring 9.

[0031] refer to Figure 1 A connecting ring 4 is welded to the upper end of the ice dispensing bucket 1. A connecting hole 3 is provided on the inner side of the connecting ring 4. By welding the connecting ring 4 with the connecting hole 3 to the upper end of the ice dispensing bucket 1, the ice dispensing bucket 1 can be easily disassembled and used.
