Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice shaver technology, specifically a new type of ice shaver. Background Technology
[0002] Chinese utility model patent CN202322771663.0 discloses an ice shaver, in which the ice shaver box is detached and assembled via sliding engagement between sliders on both sides of the upper flange and grooves on the support. The drive mechanism includes both manual and electric drive components, which can drive the ice shaver disc to complete the ice shaving operation, enabling switching between manual and electric modes.
[0003] However, in actual use, the above-mentioned ice shaver has the following shortcomings:
[0004] 1. The ice shaved box lacks effective positioning after assembly. During the ice shaving process, the rotating ice blocks periodically impact the inner wall of the ice shaved box, causing the ice shaved box to shift horizontally or even loosen, posing a safety hazard.
[0005] 2. During the ice shaving process, the reverse force generated by the ice block on the ice shaving plate can easily cause the ice shaving plate to rotate upward and in the opposite direction. Since the screw sleeve on the ice shaving plate meshes with the third transmission gear, and the third transmission gear is coaxial with the second transmission gear, this reverse force will be transmitted to the second transmission gear, causing it to generate a rotational tendency opposite to the downward pressing direction. This tendency will push the first transmission gear upward, resulting in an increase in the meshing clearance between the two gears, or even tooth dislodging, which seriously affects the transmission stability.
[0006] Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content
[0007] The present invention aims to provide a new type of ice shaver to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.
[0008] A novel ice shaver designed for this purpose includes a main body and an ice shaver cup. The main body is equipped with an ice pressing component, a motor drive component, and a manual drive component.
[0009] The ice pressing assembly includes a worm gear, an ice pressing plate, and an ice pressing drive gear. The worm gear is vertically arranged with its lower end extending outside the main body and connected to the ice pressing plate. The ice pressing drive gear is sleeved on the worm gear and drives it.
[0010] The motor drive assembly includes a drive motor, a reduction gear set and a reduction gear set housing. The drive motor is connected to the reduction gear set in a drive connection, and the reduction gear set meshes with the ice pressing transmission gear.
[0011] The manual drive assembly includes a manual drive component, a manual transmission gear, and a manual engagement gear. The manual drive component is fixedly connected to the manual transmission gear, the manual transmission gear meshes with the manual engagement gear, and the manual engagement gear meshes with the helical teeth on the worm gear.
[0012] The bottom of the main body is provided with a side assembly groove with an open front end. The side assembly groove is provided with an assembly positioning part. The top edge of the shaved ice cup is provided with a sliding side. The sliding side is slidably pulled into the side assembly groove and is assembled and positioned by the sliding positioning part and the assembly positioning part.
[0013] The main body is also equipped with a pressure adjustment component, which includes a pressure adjustment element and a pressure element. The pressure element presses against the manual transmission gear under the drive of the pressure adjustment element, causing it to move in the direction of the manual engagement gear and maintain the engagement pressure.
[0014] The worm gear has an axially extending worm groove, a worm limiting part at the top, and circumferential helical teeth; the inner wall of the connecting hole of the ice pressing transmission gear has an ice pressing drive part, which is embedded in the worm groove and slides along its trajectory; the housing of the reduction gear set has a worm limit switch, which is electrically connected to the drive motor. When the worm gear descends to the end position, the worm limiting part presses the worm limit switch to stop the drive motor; the top of the main body has a top cover guide post, and the center of the worm gear has a worm guide hole. The top cover guide post passes through the worm guide hole to guide the worm gear's lifting and lowering movement.
[0015] The pressure adjustment assembly also includes a pressure bracket fixed to the main body. The pressure bracket has a movable cavity and a bracket clearance hole. The pressure adjustment component passes through the bracket clearance hole and rotates with the pressure component placed in the movable cavity. The arc-shaped part of the pressure component can extend out of the opening of the movable cavity and press against the ring on the side of the manual transmission gear, driving the manual transmission gear to move in the direction of the manual meshing gear to adjust the meshing position and prevent disengagement.
[0016] The manual transmission gear is coaxially provided with a ring, a positioning shaft and a positioning ring on its side; the positioning concave arc edge of the lower pressure bracket and the semi-circular arc-shaped mating part of the main body together restrict the axial position of the manual transmission gear.
[0017] The lateral assembly groove is formed on the receiving part fixed to the bottom of the main body. The side of the receiving part forms a spring piece through a notch. The assembly positioning part is located inside the spring piece. The elastic deformation of the spring piece achieves elastic engagement with the sliding positioning part. The lateral assembly groove is also provided with a support part that is spaced apart from the assembly positioning part to support the sliding side.
[0018] The bottom of the main body is provided with a through hole and a protective part. The protective part is located outside the through hole and forms a protective opening. The switch trigger end of the touch switch assembly passes through the through hole and is placed inside the protective part. The touch part of the shaved ice cup contacts the switch trigger end through the protective opening.
[0019] The touch switch assembly includes a switch mounting base fixed to the main body, a touch switch mounted on the switch mounting base, and a switch trigger element that moves elastically through a trigger elastic element; the trigger guide post of the switch trigger element is inserted into the extension hole of the switch mounting base, and the guide protrusion cooperates with the guide groove of the extension hole; when the shaved ice cup is installed in place, the touch part pushes the switch trigger end, causing the trigger guide post to trigger the touch switch to start the drive motor.
[0020] The bottom of the shaved ice cup is provided with an ice outlet and a shaved ice blade holder. The shaved ice blade holder is provided with a shaved ice blade, a blade holder, an adjusting screw, and a pushing component. The shaved ice blade is fixed on the blade holder, and the blade extends obliquely into the shaved ice cup through the ice outlet. The bottom of the shaved ice cup is provided with a shaved ice cup adapter protrusion. The adjusting screw is rotatably mounted on the shaved ice cup, and its screw part is threadedly engaged with the threaded part of the shaved ice cup adapter protrusion. The adjusting drive part is rotatably engaged in the drive slot of the pushing component. The pushing component is provided with an inclined pushing part, which abuts against the bottom of the blade holder to realize the adjustment of the shaved ice blade position.
[0021] The blade holder is fitted with a blade holder elastic element on the blade holder sleeve part, and the two ends of the blade holder elastic element elastically press against the blade holder tilting boss and the shaved ice cup tilting boss respectively; the adjusting screw is fitted with an adjusting elastic element, and the two ends of the adjusting elastic element elastically act on the shaved ice cup transition boss and the adjusting action element respectively; the pushing element is limited to move within the transition limiting groove of the shaved ice cup transition boss.
[0022] The ice-pressing transmission gear is parallel to the axis of the reduction gear set, the manual transmission gear is parallel to the axis of the manual meshing gear and perpendicular to the axis of the reduction gear set, and the worm, ice-pressing plate and ice-pressing transmission gear are coaxially arranged; the main body includes a housing and a top cover that are fixed to each other, the side of the housing is provided with a side opening, the outer end of the manual drive component is connected to a handle, and the top cover is provided with a top cover opening for the downward adjustment component to be exposed.
[0023] Through the improvement of the above structure, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0024] 1. By positioning the assemblies and the sliding locators on the shaved ice cup, the shaved ice cup is precisely positioned and reliably locked after installation, effectively preventing displacement or even loosening of the shaved ice cup due to vibration or external force during the shaving process, thus greatly improving the safety and reliability of use.
[0025] 2. The meshing tightness between the manual transmission gear and the manual meshing gear can be actively adjusted by the pressure adjustment component, which can effectively eliminate the transmission gap between the gear pairs and provide continuous preload to the gears. This overcomes the problem of gears being subjected to reverse force, increased meshing gap, and tooth dislodgement caused by the reverse force of ice during ice shaving, thus ensuring smooth and reliable transmission in manual drive mode.
[0026] 3. The motor drive component directly drives the ice-pressing transmission gear through the reduction gear set, which in turn drives the worm to rotate and press down. The manual drive component engages with the helical teeth of the worm through the manual transmission gear and the manual meshing gear to manually drive the worm to press down or rise and reset. The motor drive component and the manual drive component act independently on the worm, with a clear structure and no interference between them. Users can freely choose between electric or manual modes as needed, which improves the applicability and convenience of the product.
[0027] 4. When the worm gear is driven by the drive motor to rotate and press down, it can also be manually driven to press down, so that the ice pressing plate can further press down on the ice block, effectively avoiding the problem of the ice block jumping and poor ice shaving effect due to insufficient downward pressure during the ice shaving process.

[0053] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0054] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0055] See Figures 1-25 The new ice shaver includes a main body and an ice shaver cup 2. The main body is equipped with an ice pressing component, a motor drive component, and a manual drive component.
[0056] The ice pressing assembly includes a worm gear 20, an ice pressing plate 21, and an ice pressing transmission gear 22. The lower end of the worm gear 20 is located outside the main body and is connected to the ice pressing plate 21. The ice pressing transmission gear 22 is driven by the worm gear 20.
[0057] The motor drive assembly includes a drive motor 23, a reduction gear set 24, and a reduction gear set housing. The drive motor 23 is driven by the reduction gear set 24. The reduction gear set 24 is rotatably disposed in the reduction gear set housing and meshes with the ice pressing transmission gear 22 for transmission.
[0058] The manual drive assembly includes a manual drive component 28, a manual transmission gear 29, and a manual engagement gear 30. The manual drive component 28 is driven by the manual transmission gear 29, the manual transmission gear 29 engages with the manual engagement gear 30, and the manual engagement gear 30 is connected to the worm gear 20.
[0059] The bottom of the main body is also provided with a side mounting slot 3.1 with the front open, and the shaved ice cup 2 is slidably pulled out and installed on the side mounting slot 3.1.
[0060] The worm 20 is provided with a worm groove 20.1, a worm limiting part 20.2, and a helical tooth 20.3. The ice pressing transmission gear 22 is provided with a connecting hole 22.1 and is sleeved on the worm 20 through the connecting hole 22.1. The ice pressing drive part 22.2 is provided on the connecting hole 22.1. The ice pressing drive part 22.2 extends into the worm groove 20.1 and slides along the trajectory of the worm groove 20. The manual meshing gear 30 is engaged with the helical tooth 20.3. The reduction gear housing or the main body is provided with a worm limit switch 27. The worm limit switch 27 is electrically connected to the drive motor 23. When the worm 20 descends to the end position, it touches the worm limit switch 27 through the worm limiting part 20.2.
[0061] When the manual engagement gear 30 rotates, it engages with the helical gear 20.3 through the gear part on the periphery to drive the worm gear 20 to rise or fall on the main body.
[0062] Specifically, the user can rotate the manual drive component 28 on the main body by applying force to it. When the manual drive component 28 rotates, it drives the manual transmission gear 29 to rotate on the main body as well. When the manual transmission gear 29 rotates, it engages with the manual meshing gear 30, thereby driving the manual meshing gear 30 to rotate on the main body as well. When the manual meshing gear 30 rotates, its outer gear part can mesh with the helical teeth 20.3, thereby driving the worm gear 20 to rise or fall linearly on the main body to compress the ice and to raise and reset the entire ice pressing assembly.
[0063] The worm gear 20 rotates in one direction on the main body through the drive of the motor drive assembly. When rotating, the worm gear 20 engages with the gear part of the manual meshing gear 30 through the helical teeth 20.3, so as to realize the rotation and descent of the worm gear 20 on the main body.
[0064] Specifically, when the drive motor 23 is working, its drive end meshes with the reduction gear set 24 to drive the reduction gear set 24 to rotate within the reduction gear set housing. When the reduction gear set 24 rotates, it meshes with the gear portion surrounding the ice-pressing transmission gear 22, thereby driving the ice-pressing transmission gear 22 to rotate on the main body. Since the ice-pressing drive part 22.2 extends into the worm groove 20.1, the ice-pressing transmission gear 22 drives the worm 20 to rotate on the main body as well. In addition, since the gear portion surrounding the manual engagement gear 30 meshes with the helical teeth 20.3 and the manual engagement gear 30 is not in operation at this time, the rotating worm 20 can descend on the main body and press the ice block by helically engaging the gear portion surrounding the manual engagement gear 30 with the helical teeth 20.3.
[0065] Because the ice pressing assembly can be lowered in a dual manner through a combination of a motor-driven assembly and a manual-driven assembly, that is, when the worm gear 20 is driven by the drive motor 23 to rotate and press down, it can also be manually driven to press down, so that the ice pressing plate 21 can further press down on the ice block. This effectively avoids the problem of the ice block jumping and poor ice shaving effect due to insufficient downward pressure during the ice shaving process, ensuring that the ice block can be effectively pressed and shaved, and improving the ice shaving effect.
[0066] The reduction gear set housing includes an upper gear set housing 25 and a lower gear set housing 26. The upper gear set housing 25 and the lower gear set housing 26 are fixedly fitted together and form a housing cavity between them. A housing notch 25.1 is provided on the upper gear set housing 25 or the lower gear set housing 26. The housing notch 25.1 communicates with the housing cavity. The reduction gear set 24 is disposed in the housing cavity and at least partially extends out of the housing notch 25.1, and meshes with the gear part around the ice pressing transmission gear 22 for transmission.
[0067] The upper housing 25 and lower housing 26 of the gear set are fixed to each other by snaps or fasteners. The drive motor 23 is fixed to the upper housing 25 of the gear set by fasteners, and its drive end extends into the housing cavity and is connected to a motor gear. The motor gear meshes with the reduction gear set 24 for transmission. A housing notch 25.1 is provided on one side of the upper housing 25 of the gear set so that a part of the reduction gear set 24 is placed outside the housing cavity, so as to realize the meshing transmission between the reduction gear set 24 and the gear part around the ice pressing transmission gear 22.
[0068] The gear set upper housing 25 is also fixedly mounted with a motor control board 33 by snap-fits or fasteners. The motor control board 33 is electrically connected to the worm limit switch 27 and the drive motor 23. The worm limit switch 27 is fixed to the gear set upper housing 25 by snap-fits or fasteners. The worm limit part 20.2 is located at the top of the worm 20. When the worm 20 descends to the end position, the worm limit part 20.2 touches the worm limit switch 27. At this time, the worm limit switch 27 sends a signal to the motor control board 33 that the worm 20 has descended to the end position, so that the motor control board 33 controls the drive motor 23 to stop working.
[0069] The axis of the ice pressing transmission gear 22 is parallel to the axis of the reduction gear set 24. The axis of the ice pressing transmission gear 22 is perpendicular to the axis of the manual engagement gear 30. The axis of the manual engagement gear 30 is parallel to the axis of the manual transmission gear 29. The worm gear 20, the ice pressing plate 21 and the ice pressing transmission gear 22 are set on the same axis.
[0070] This allows the worm gear 20, the ice pressing plate 21, and the ice pressing transmission gear 22 to rotate on the same axis, with the ice pressing transmission gear 22 rotating parallel to the axis of the reduction gear set 24, and the manual transmission gear 29 and the manual engagement gear 30 rotating perpendicularly to the axis of the reduction gear set 24.
[0071] The main body includes a housing 31 and a top cover 32 that are fixedly fitted together. The bottom of the housing 31 is provided with a housing opening 31.1, and the top cover 32 is provided with a top cover guide post 32.1. The top cover guide post 32.1 and the housing opening 31.1 correspond to each other. The worm gear 20 is provided with a worm gear guide hole 20.4 at its center. The top cover guide post 32.1 is guided and movably sleeved on the worm gear guide hole 20.4. The worm gear 20 extends and retracts outside the housing opening 31.1 through the cooperation of the worm gear guide hole 20.4 and the top cover guide post 32.1.
[0072] The housing 31 and the top cover 32 are fixed to each other by snaps or fasteners. The lower end of the worm gear 20 extends out of the housing opening 31.1 and is detachably connected to the ice pressing plate 21. The cooperation between the worm gear guide hole 20.4 and the top cover guide post 32.1 can ensure that the worm gear 20 moves linearly up or down.
[0073] The housing 31 is also provided with a pressing member 35, which is pressed onto the ice pressing transmission gear 22 so that the ice pressing transmission gear 22 rotates on the housing 31 at a designated position, thereby ensuring the drive connection between the ice pressing assembly and the motor drive assembly and the manual drive assembly respectively.
[0074] The main body is provided with a pressure adjustment assembly, which includes a pressure adjustment component 36 and a pressure component 37. The pressure adjustment component 36 is rotatably mounted on the main body and is drivenly connected to the pressure component 37. The pressure component 37 moves on the main body through the drive of the pressure adjustment component 36, and drives the manual transmission gear 29 to move in the direction of the manual engagement gear 30 when it moves.
[0075] The manual transmission gear 29 has a ring 29.1 on its side. The pressing member 37 has a connecting part 37.1 and an arc-shaped part 37.2 on opposite sides. The pressing adjustment member 36 rotates with the connecting part 37.1, and the arc-shaped part 37.2 abuts against the ring 29.1.
[0076] Since the transition part 37.1 and the arc-shaped part 37.2 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the pressing member 37, when the pressing adjustment member 36 rotates the transition part 37.1 on one side of the pressing member 37, it can drive the arc-shaped part 37.2 on the other side of the pressing member 37 to abut against the ring 29.1, thereby performing a clamping action to press the manual transmission gear 29. At the same time, it can also drive the manual transmission gear 29 to move in the direction of the manual meshing gear 30 to adjust the meshing transmission position between the manual transmission gear 29 and the manual meshing gear 30.
[0077] Since the meshing transmission position between the manual transmission gear 29 and the manual meshing gear 30 is adjustable, it can effectively avoid misalignment and jamming problems that may occur during assembly or meshing.
[0078] The pressure adjustment assembly also includes a pressure bracket 38, which is fixedly mounted on the main body and has a bracket clearance hole 38.1 and a movable cavity 38.2. The bottom of the movable cavity 38.2 has a movable cavity opening. The pressure adjustment member 36 passes through the bracket clearance hole 38.1 and rotates with the pressure member 37. The pressure member 37 is located inside the movable cavity 38.2 and extends and retracts outside the movable cavity opening through the drive of the pressure adjustment member 36.
[0079] The pressure bracket 38 is fixed to the housing 31 of the main body by fasteners or buckles. The pressure member 37 is a wear-resistant part and is located in the movable cavity 38.2 during assembly. The arc-shaped part 37.2 of the pressure member 37 extends and retracts outside the opening of the movable cavity during adjustment and abuts against the ring 29.1 during extension and retraction.
[0080] The pressure bracket 38 is also provided with a positioning concave arc edge 38.3, the side of the ring 29.1 is provided with a positioning pivot 29.2, and the outside of the positioning pivot 29.2 is provided with a positioning ring 29.3. The positioning concave arc edge 38.3 is respectively limited and matched with the positioning pivot 29.2, the ring 29.1 and the positioning ring 29.3.
[0081] Specifically, the positioning concave arc edge 38.3 is semi-circular arc-shaped, and the housing 31 is provided with a semi-circular arc-shaped mating part at the corresponding position. The positioning concave arc edge 38.3 and the semi-circular arc-shaped mating part are respectively limited to the positioning rotating shaft 29.2. The opposite sides of the positioning concave arc edge 38.3 and the semi-circular arc-shaped mating part are respectively limited to the ring 29.1 and the positioning ring 29.3, so that the manual transmission gear 29 is limited to rotate between the positioning concave arc edge 38.3 and the semi-circular arc-shaped mating part.
[0082] The casing 31 has a side opening 31.2. One end of the manual drive component 28 is connected to the manual transmission gear 29, and the other end extends out of the side opening 31.2 and is connected to a handle 34, so that the user can drive the manual drive component 28. The top cover 32 has a top cover opening 32.2 corresponding to the pressure adjustment component 36. A cover 39 is detachably installed on the top cover opening 32.2 so as to cover or open the top cover opening 32.2. After the top cover opening 32.2 is opened, the user can use a tool to act on the pressure adjustment component 36 to drive the pressure adjustment component 36 to rotate.
[0083] The lower end of the worm gear 20 is provided with a worm gear buckle 20.5. The ice pressing plate 21 is located below the main body and its upper surface is provided with several screw fasteners 21.1. The several screw fasteners 21.1 are arranged in a ring at intervals along the center of the ice pressing plate 21. The ice pressing plate 21 is rotatably and detachably fastened to the worm gear buckle 20.5 through the screw fasteners 21.1.
[0084] The rotational assembly direction of the screw fastener 21.1 and the worm gear fastener 20.5 is the same as the rotational direction of the ice pressing plate 21, so that the screw fastener 21.1 and the worm gear fastener 20.5 can be effectively assembled when the ice pressing plate 21 rotates, preventing the worm gear 20 from loosening from the ice pressing plate 21. At the same time, since the ice pressing plate 21 can be removed, it is convenient for users to clean and maintain it daily.
[0085] A receiving part 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body. A side assembly groove 3.1 is installed on the receiving part 3. An assembly positioning part 3.3 is provided on the inner wall of the side assembly groove 3.1. A sliding side 2.1 extends outward from the top edge of the shaved ice cup 2. A sliding positioning part 2.2 is provided on the sliding side 2.1. The sliding side 2.1 is slidably pulled and disassembled on the side assembly groove 3.1 and is positioned on the assembly positioning part 3.3 by the sliding positioning part 2.2 during assembly.
[0086] There are two receiving parts 3, which are fixed to the bottom sides of the main body housing 31 by fasteners or buckles. In addition, the side mounting grooves 3.1 of the two receiving parts 3 are arranged opposite to each other, and the sliding side 2.1 can be slidably mounted and dismounted on the side mounting grooves 3.1 on both sides to ensure the assembly stability of the shaved ice cup 2.
[0087] The receiving part 3 has a notch 3.4 on its side, through which a spring piece 3.5 is formed. The spring piece 3.5 can move elastically on the side of the receiving part 3 using the notch 3.4. The assembly positioning part 3.3 is set on the spring piece 3.5 and is elastically positioned on the sliding positioning part 2.2 by the spring piece 3.5. When the shaved ice cup 2 is disassembled, the sliding side 2.1 acts on the assembly positioning part 3.3 and can drive the spring piece 3.5 to elastically avoid it. This not only facilitates the mutual positioning or separation between the sliding side 2.1 and the assembly positioning part 3.3, but also avoids damage caused by the rigid fit between the two.
[0088] A support part 3.6 is also provided in the side assembly groove 3.1. The support part 3.6 is spaced and cooperates with the assembly positioning part 3.3. The support part 3.6 relies on the sliding side 2.1 when the shaved ice cup 2 is assembled.
[0089] When the shaved ice cup 2 is assembled, the outer side of the sliding side 2.1 can rest on the support part 3.6, so that the shaved ice cup 2 can be disassembled and assembled in a designated position and the mutual positioning between the sliding side 2.1 and the assembly positioning part 3.3 is ensured, thus avoiding loosening of the shaved ice cup 2 due to play during assembly and the inability to position the assembly position.
[0090] The main body is equipped with a touch switch assembly, which includes a switch mounting base 4, a touch switch 5, a trigger elastic element 6, and a switch trigger element 7. The switch mounting base 4 is fixedly mounted inside the main body, the touch switch 5 is fixedly mounted on the switch mounting base 4, and the trigger elastic element 6 is located between the switch trigger element 7 and the switch mounting base 4. The switch trigger element 7 moves elastically on the switch mounting base 4 through the trigger elastic element 6. One end of the switch trigger element 7 is provided with a switch trigger end 7.1, which extends out of the main body. A touch part 2.3 is provided on the sliding side 2.1. The touch part 2.3 interacts with or separates from the switch trigger end 7.1 when the shaved ice cup 2 is disassembled or assembled. The other end of the switch trigger element 7 interacts with or separates from the switch part of the touch switch 5.
[0091] The bottom of the main body housing 31 is provided with a through hole 1.1 and a protective part 1.2. The switch trigger end 7.1 extends out of the through hole 1.1. The protective part 1.2 is located on one side of the through hole 1.1 and covers the switch trigger end 7.1. The protective part 1.2 is also provided with a protective opening. The contact part 2.3 interacts with the switch trigger end 7.1 through the protective opening.
[0092] The touch switch 5 is fixed to the switch mounting base 4 by fasteners or clips. The motor control board 33 is electrically connected to the touch switch 5. The switch mounting base 4 is provided with an extension 4.1 facing the through hole 1.1. The extension 4.1 is provided with an extension hole 4.2. The side wall of the extension hole 4.2 is provided with a guide groove 4.3. One end of the switch trigger 7 is provided with a trigger guide post 7.2. A positioning step 7.3 is provided between the trigger guide post 7.2 and the switch trigger end 7.1. A guide protrusion 7.4 is provided on the positioning step 7.3. The trigger guide post 7.2 extends into the extension hole 4.2. The trigger elastic member 6 is positioned and sleeved between the trigger guide post 7.2 and the extension hole 4.2. One end of the trigger elastic member 6 acts elastically on the switch mounting base 4, and the other end acts elastically on the positioning step 7.3. The switch trigger 7 is guided and moves on the guide groove 4.3 by the guide protrusion 7.4.
[0093] The protective part 1.2 can cover the switch trigger end 7.1 to prevent foreign objects from contacting the switch trigger end 7.1 and causing the switch assembly to be accidentally triggered. In addition, the protective opening allows the contact part 2.3 to interact with the switch trigger end 7.1 in a single position, further ensuring the safety of using the ice shaver.
[0094] When the shaved ice cup 2 is assembled, the contact part 2.3 acts on the switch trigger end 7.1 and drives the switch trigger 7 to overcome the elastic force of the trigger elastic part 6 and move in the direction of the touch switch 5. At this time, the trigger guide post 7.2 acts on the switch part of the touch switch 5, the touch switch 5 is triggered, and the motor control board 33 can control the drive motor 23 to work normally.
[0095] When the shaved ice cup 2 is removed, the contact part 2.3 leaves the switch trigger end 7.1, and the switch trigger 7 moves away from the touch switch 5 by the elastic force of the trigger elastic member 6. At this time, the trigger guide post 7.2 separates from the switch part of the touch switch 5, and the touch switch 5 cannot be triggered. The motor control board 33 can then control the drive motor 23 to stop working.
[0096] The bottom of the shaved ice cup 2 is provided with an ice outlet 2.4 and a shaved ice blade holder 10. The shaved ice blade holder 10 is provided with a shaved ice blade 9, a blade holder 11, an adjusting screw 13 and a pushing member 14. The shaved ice blade 9 is fixedly mounted on the blade holder 11 and its blade extends into the shaved ice cup 2 through the ice outlet 2.4. The adjusting screw 13 is rotatably mounted on the shaved ice cup 2 and is driven to connect with the pushing member 14 when rotating. The pushing member 14 is provided with an inclined pushing part 14.1 and is driven to connect with the blade holder 11 through the inclined pushing part 14.1.
[0097] The bottom of the shaved ice cup 2 is provided with a shaved ice cup tilting boss 2.5, and the blade holder 11 is provided with a blade holder tilting boss 11.2. The blade holder tilting boss 11.2 is provided with a blade holder sleeve part 11.1 facing the shaved ice cup tilting boss 2.5. A blade holder elastic member 12 is positioned and sleeved on the blade holder sleeve part 11.1. One end of the blade holder elastic member 12 elastically acts on the blade holder tilting boss 11.2, and the other end elastically acts on the shaved ice cup tilting boss 2.5.
[0098] The elastic element 12 of the blade holder can reduce the mutual impact force between the ice shaver 9 and the ice block during operation, avoid damage to the ice shaver 9, and reduce the rigid jamming problem that occurs during the position adjustment of the blade holder 11 and the ice shaver 9, thereby improving the position adjustment stability of the ice shaver 9.
[0099] That is, when the ice block is rotating at high speed and impacts the ice shaver 9, the blade holder 11 can be retracted to a certain position through the blade holder elastic member 12, thereby reducing the mutual impact force between the ice shaver 9 and the ice block during operation. In addition, when the pusher 14 drives the blade holder 11, if the driving force of the pusher 14 is large, or if the blade holder 11 is stuck due to foreign objects, the blade holder 11 can also be retracted to a certain position through the blade holder elastic member 12, reducing the rigid jamming problem that occurs during the position adjustment process of the blade holder 11 and the ice shaver 9.
[0100] The blade holder 11 is provided with a blade holder tilting groove 11.4, and the ice shaver 9 is fixedly installed on the blade holder tilting groove 11.4. The blade of the ice shaver 9 extends into the ice shaver cup 2 at an angle through the ice outlet 2.4.
[0101] The bottom of the shaved ice cup 2 is provided with a shaved ice cup adapter protrusion 2.6, and an adjustment adapter hole 2.7 is provided on the shaved ice cup adapter protrusion 2.6. The adjustment screw 13 is rotatably mounted on the adjustment adapter hole 2.7.
[0102] The bottom of the shaver holder 11 rests on the inclined push part 14.1. When the adjusting screw 13 rotates on the adjusting adapter hole 2.7, it drives the push part 14 to slide on the shaver blade holder 10. When the push part 14 slides, it causes the shaver holder 11 to move on the shaver blade holder 10, thereby realizing the position adjustment between the shaver blade 9 and the shaver cup 2.
[0103] The shaved ice cup tilting boss 2.5 and the blade holder tilting boss 11.2 are both tilted. At the same time, the blade holder elastic element 12 is also tilted after assembly, so that the blade holder 11 and the shaved ice blade 9 can achieve tilted elastic movement. This allows the impact force between the ice cube and the shaved ice blade 9, as well as the driving force of the pushing element 14 on the blade holder 11 and the shaved ice blade 9 during adjustment, to be tilted and transmitted, making the force transmission more reasonable.
[0104] The adjusting adapter hole 2.7 is provided with a threaded part. One end of the adjusting screw 13 is provided with an adjusting drive part 13.1, and the middle part is provided with a screw part 13.2. The pushing part 14 is provided with a drive slot 14.2. The adjusting drive part 13.1 is rotatably locked in the drive slot 14.2. The screw part 13.2 is threadedly engaged with the threaded part. The other end of the adjusting screw 13 is also provided with an adjusting action part 16 for driving its own rotation.
[0105] The threaded portion can be integrally formed within the adjusting adapter hole 2.7, or a threaded component 15 can be provided within the adjusting adapter hole 2.7, with an integrally formed threaded portion on the threaded component 15, so that the screw portion 13.2 can be threadedly engaged with the threaded component 15. The top of the drive slot 14.2 is open, and the adjusting drive portion 13.1 has a T-shaped cross-section and can be locked onto the drive slot 14.2. Simultaneously, the adjusting drive portion 13.1 can rotate after being locked, thereby achieving the driving connection between the adjusting screw 13 and the pushing component 14. During use, the user can apply force to the adjusting actuating component 16 to drive the adjusting screw 13 to rotate.
[0106] An adjusting elastic element 17 is positioned and sleeved on the adjusting screw 13. One end of the adjusting elastic element 17 acts elastically on the shaved ice cup transition protrusion 2.6, and the other end acts elastically on the adjusting element 16.
[0107] Specifically, a first shim 18 is provided near the adjustment drive part 13.1 and a second shim 19 is provided near the adjustment action part 16. The adjustment elastic member 17 is a compression spring and its two ends elastically act on the first shim 18 and the second shim 19 respectively, so as to improve the stability of the adjustment screw 13 during rotation adjustment.
[0108] The shaved ice cup adapter protrusion 2.6 is provided with an adapter limiting groove 2.8, and the pusher 14 is limited to move within the adapter limiting groove 2.8. This ensures that the pusher 14 is limited within the adapter limiting groove 2.8 during movement, thereby improving the stability of the pusher 14's movement.
[0109] The ice shaver also includes a support frame 8, on which the main body is mounted, and the ice shaver cup 2 is suspended. Users can place a container under the suspended ice shaver cup 2 to collect the shaved ice.
[0110] The working principle is as follows:
[0111] Electric Mode: Push the ice-shaved ice cup 2 containing ice cubes into the main body and lock it in place. The touch switch 5 is triggered, and the circuit is ready. Start the drive motor 23. Power is transmitted through the reduction gear set 24 to the ice-pressing transmission gear 22, which drives the worm gear 20 to rotate. At this time, the manual engagement gear 30 is axially limited by the pressing adjustment piece 36, the pressing piece 37, and the gear itself. While the worm gear 20 rotates, its helical teeth 20.3 and the internal teeth of the manual engagement gear 30 generate relative helical motion, driving the worm gear 20 to press down linearly along the top cover guide post 32.1, which drives the ice-pressing plate 21 to press the ice cubes and shave the ice.
[0112] Manual mode: In the absence of power or when selected by the user, turning handle 34 drives the worm gear 20 downwards via manual transmission gear 29 and manual engagement gear 30. During this process, the preload provided by the pressure adjustment component ensures that the gear pair is tightly engaged, effectively resisting the reverse impact force of the ice and preventing disengagement. To reset, simply turn handle 34 in the opposite direction.
[0113] Dual-drive advantage: During the electric pressing process, the user can simultaneously rotate the handle 34 to apply auxiliary downward pressure, realizing dual drive of electric and manual, ensuring sufficient and stable clamping force on hard ice blocks, avoiding jumping, and significantly improving ice shaving efficiency and finished product quality.
