Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of frozen beverage manufacturing machine technology, and more specifically, to a handle mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Beverage making machines, also known as semi-frozen beverage making machines or crushed ice beverage making machines, typically include a transparent tank or mixing container that receives and processes beverage products. The processing involves cooling, often transforming the beverage product from a pure liquid (or a combination of liquid and ice portions) into a frozen or semi-frozen product, such as slushies, smoothies, ice cream, or other frozen or semi-frozen products, which are then dispensed. The mixing container contains at least a mixing blade or auger rotated by a motor via a drive shaft and drive assembly. After a period of use, the transparent tank or mixing container needs to be separated from the main body for cleaning of the mixing container, mixing blade, or auger.

[0003] However, traditional frozen beverage making machines on the market use a lever rotation method to lock or open the handle mechanism. The configuration of the lever rotation method and the opening or locking process are relatively complicated, resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to address the shortcomings of the existing technology of using a lever rotation method to lock or open the handle mechanism of the above-mentioned mixing container, which has a relatively complex configuration mechanism and opening or locking action process. The present invention provides a handle mechanism that can be opened or locked by pulling or pressing.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: to construct a handle mechanism, which is applied to a frozen beverage manufacturing machine.

[0006] At least one limiting component is provided on the main body, and at least one locking component is provided in the mixing container.

[0007] At least one of the locking components is disposed on an adjacent side of the limiting component.

[0008] The handle mechanism is equipped with a locking component that cooperates with the limiting component.

[0009] When the first end of the locking component moves to the first end of the limiting component, the locking component separates from the locking component to control the separation of the mixing container from the main body.

[0010] When the second end of the locking component moves to the second end of the limiting component, the locking component is embedded in the locking component to lock the mixing container onto the body.

[0011] In some embodiments, symmetrical opening slots are provided on the inner side of the locking assembly.

[0012] One end of the opening slot is formed along the outer edge of the locking assembly.

[0013] The slot is used for inserting or removing the locking assembly.

[0014] In some embodiments, when the first end of the locking component moves to the first end of the limiting component, the locking component separates from the locking component through the opening slot.

[0015] When the second end of the locking component moves to the second end of the limiting component, the locking component is embedded in the locking component through the opening slot.

[0016] In some embodiments, a through groove is formed within the locking assembly, and a placement groove is formed inside the through groove.

[0017] The end face of the limiting component is in contact with the end face of the placement groove, and the extended portion of the limiting component is disposed within the through groove.

[0018] In some embodiments, a placement cavity is provided on one side of the through groove, and a through circular hole is provided in the placement cavity.

[0019] In some embodiments, an elastic component is disposed within the placement cavity, with one end of the elastic component passing through the through-hole.

[0020] In some embodiments, the elastic component includes at least a support member, a spring assembly, and a movable member.

[0021] A concave ring is provided on one end face of the support member, and a through hole is provided in the concave ring.

[0022] One end of the spring assembly is engaged within the concave ring.

[0023] The movable component is fitted inside the spring assembly, and the other end of the spring assembly abuts against one end of the movable component.

[0024] One end of the movable component is disposed within the through hole.

[0025] In some embodiments, a first recess and a second recess are provided on opposite sides of the locking assembly.

[0026] The first recess and the second recess are arranged radially.

[0027] In some embodiments, when the first end of the locking assembly moves to the first end of the limiting assembly, the other end of the movable member is engaged in the first recess.

[0028] When the second end of the locking component moves to the second end of the limiting component, the other end of the movable member is inserted into the second recess.

[0029] In some embodiments, a connecting component is provided between the locking components.

[0030] In the handle mechanism described in this utility model, it is applied to a frozen beverage manufacturing machine. When the first end of the locking component moves to the first end of the limiting component, the locking component separates from the locking component to control the separation of the mixing container from the main body. When the second end of the locking component moves to the second end of the limiting component, the limiting component is embedded in the locking component to lock the mixing container onto the main body. Compared with the prior art, the handle mechanism can be opened or locked by pulling or pressing it. When the handle mechanism is pulled upward, the first end of the locking component moves to the first end of the limiting component, and the locking component can be opened by pushing the sliding rail / slot. When the handle mechanism is pressed downward, the second end of the locking component moves to the second end of the limiting component, and the locking component is engaged with the locking component to lock the mixing container.

[0042] To provide a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] like Figures 1-3 As shown, in the first embodiment of the frozen beverage making machine of this utility model, the frozen beverage making machine 100 includes a main body 10, a mixing container 20, and a handle mechanism 30.

[0044] The main body 10 is equipped with at least a compressor, a condenser, a rotary blade 120, and a handle mechanism 30 installed on the left and right sides of the upper end of the main body 10.

[0045] A mixing container 20 is positioned at the front end of the frozen beverage making machine 100. It is a cylinder with a hollow structure 20a and is used to hold ice cubes, smoothies, or finished products to be mixed.

[0046] The rotary cutter 120 is disposed within the hollow structure 20a of the mixing container 20;

[0047] The handle assembly 120 is positioned on the left and right sides of the upper part of the main unit 10, and can cooperate with the locking assembly 20b of the mixing container 20 to control the locking and unlocking states of the mixing container 20 and the main unit 10.

[0048] exist Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the first embodiment of the handle mechanism of the present invention shown, the handle mechanism 30 is applied to the frozen beverage making machine 100, and the handle mechanism 30 can move radially along the limiting component 130a of the main body 10.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the limiting component 130a is offset or symmetrically arranged on the main body 10, and it is set as a square or round protrusion. At least one limiting component 130a is provided.

[0050] At least one locking component 20b is provided on each of the left and right sides of the rear end of the mixing container 20, which is configured as a square or round protrusion.

[0051] At least one locking component 20b is disposed on the adjacent side of the limiting component 130a;

[0052] For example, the positioning component 20b can be set on the left, right, upper or lower side of the limiting component 130a;

[0053] Among them, the handle mechanism 30 is provided with corresponding locking components (30a, 30b), which are circular or square;

[0054] The locking components (30a, 30b) can respectively cooperate with the limiting component 130a so that it can be detachably fixed to the main unit 10;

[0055] Among them, such as Figure 6 As shown, a through groove 310 is provided in the locking assembly (30a, 30b). The through groove 310 cooperates with the limiting assembly 130a, so that the locking assembly (30a, 30b) can move up and down along the limiting assembly 130a through the through groove 310.

[0056] like Figure 8 As shown, when the locking components (30a, 30b) are pulled upward along the limiting component 130a, and the first end 310a of the locking components (30a, 30b) moves to the first end M1 of the limiting component 130a, the locking component 20b separates from the locking components (30a, 30b), and the user can remove the mixing container 20 along the user interface direction of the main body 10, so that the mixing container 20 separates from the main body 10;

[0057] like Figure 7 As shown, the hollow structure 20a of the mixing container 20 is embedded along the placement space 100a where the rotating blade 120 is located, so that the sealing components of the main body 10 of the hollow structure 20a of the mixing container 20 are opposite each other. Then, the locking components (30a, 30b) are pressed down along the limiting component 130a. When the second end 310b of the locking components (30a, 30b) moves to the second end M2 of the limiting component 130a, the locking component 20b is embedded in the locking components (30a, 30b), and the locking component 20b abuts against the locking components (30a, 30b), thereby locking the mixing container 20 onto the main body 10.

[0058] Using this technical solution, the handle mechanism 30 can be pulled or pressed. When the handle mechanism 30 is pulled upward, the first end of the locking component (30a, 30b) moves to the first end of the limiting component 130a. The locking component 20b can be opened by pushing the slide rail / slot. When the handle mechanism 30 is pressed downward, the second end of the locking component (30a, 30b) moves to the second end of the limiting component. The locking component 20b can be locked into the locking component (30a, 30b) to lock the mixing container 20.

[0059] In some implementations, such as Figure 6 As shown, symmetrical opening slots 330 are provided on the inner side of the locking components (30a, 30b). These opening slots 330 have a cuboid structure.

[0060] Wherein, one end of the opening groove 330 has a groove 330a formed along the outer extension of the locking components (30a, 30b),

[0061] The slot 330a is used for inserting or removing the locking assembly 20b.

[0062] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, when the first end 310a of the locking assembly (30a, 30b) moves to the first end M1 of the limiting assembly 130a, the locking assembly 20b separates from the opening groove 330 of the locking assembly (30a, 30b).

[0063] Specifically, when the locking components (30a, 30b) are pulled upward along the limiting component 130a, and the first end 310a of the locking components (30a, 30b) moves to the first end M1 of the limiting component 130a, the locking component 20b can be separated from the locking components (30a, 30b) through the slot 330a of the opening slot 330.

[0064] like Figure 7 As shown, when the second end 310b of the locking assembly (30a, 30b) moves to the second end M2 of the limiting assembly 130a, the locking assembly 20b is embedded in the opening groove 330 of the locking assembly (30a, 30b).

[0065] Specifically, when the locking components (30a, 30b) are pressed down along the limiting component 130a, when the second end 310b of the locking components (30a, 30b) moves to the second end M2 of the limiting component 130a, the locking component 20b can be inserted into the locking components (30a, 30b) through the slot 330a of the opening slot 330.

[0066] In some implementations, such as Figure 6 As shown, in order to limit the maximum displacement of the locking components (30a, 30b) moving upward / downward along the limiting component 130a, a through groove 310 can be formed in the locking components (30a, 30b), and a placement groove 320 can be formed on the inner side of the through groove 310. The placement groove 320 is configured as a cuboid.

[0067] The end face of the limiting component 130a is fitted with the end face of the placement groove 320, and the extended portion of the limiting component 130a is disposed in the through groove 310.

[0068] In some implementations, such as Figure 6As shown, a placement cavity 340 is provided on one side of the through groove 310, and a through circular hole 340a is provided in the placement cavity 340.

[0069] In some implementations, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, an elastic component 350 is disposed in the placement cavity 340, and one end of the elastic component 350 passes through the through circular hole 340a.

[0070] In some implementations, such as Figure 9 As shown, the elastic component 350 includes at least a support member 350a, a spring assembly 350b, and a movable member 350c.

[0071] Support 350a is used to fix the spring assembly 350b and the movable part 350c;

[0072] like Figure 10 As shown, a concave ring 352 is provided on one end face of the support member 350a, and a protruding ring 351 is provided on the opposite side of the concave ring 352.

[0073] A through hole 353 is provided in the concave ring 352.

[0074] One end of the spring assembly 350b is engaged within the concave ring 352.

[0075] The movable part 350c is fitted inside the spring assembly 350b, and the other end of the spring assembly 350b abuts against one end of the movable part 350c. The axial torque of the movable part 350c is increased by setting the spring assembly 350b.

[0076] One end of the movable part 350c is disposed in the through hole 353.

[0077] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, in order to improve the stability of the fit between the mixing container 20 and the main body 10, a first recess 130b and a second recess 130c can be provided on the outer side of the outer shell 130.

[0078] The first recess 130b and the second recess 130c are disposed on the adjacent side of the limiting component 130a, and are disposed opposite to the locking component 20b.

[0079] The first recess 130b and the second recess 130c are arranged radially.

[0080] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, when the first end 310a of the locking assembly (30a, 30b) moves to the first end M1 of the limiting assembly 130a, one end of the movable member 350c (belonging to the elastic assembly 350) is inserted into the first recess 130b.

[0081] like Figure 8As shown, when the second end 310b of the locking assembly (30a, 30b) moves to the second end M2 of the limiting assembly 130a, one end of the movable part 350c (belonging to the elastic assembly 350) separates from the first recess 130b and is embedded in the second recess 130c, cooperating with the locking assembly 20b to improve the stability of the mixing container 20 and the main body 10.

[0082] In some implementations, such as Figure 6 As shown, a connecting component 30c is provided between the locking components (30a, 30b), and the connecting component 30c and the locking components (30a, 30b) are integrally injection molded.

[0083] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims. All of these forms are within the protection scope of the present invention.
