DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The technical scheme of the present application will be further described in detail below with specific examples and in conjunction with the drawings, and the described examples are only part of the examples of the present application, rather than all the examples.

[0023] Example 1: Refer to Figs. 1-3 The present embodiment provides a bottom corner support structure for ice makers, which is designed to meet the installation needs of various ice makers, and has the characteristics of stable structure, convenient installation and strong universality. Through reasonable structure design and material selection, the weight of the ice maker can be effectively dispersed to ensure the stability of the equipment during operation, and it can adapt to different installation environments. The structure includes a top plate 1, a first support foot 3, a second support foot 4, a side support plate 5, a fixed ring hole 2, a straight reinforcing plate 6 and a staggered reinforcing plate 7. The top plate 1 is connected with the ice maker and is stably fixed with the ice maker through the fixed ring hole 2. The back of the top plate 1 is provided with a plurality of straight reinforcing plates 6 for enhancing the rigidity of the top plate to prevent deformation under heavy pressure. The central area of the top plate 1 is designed as a staggered reinforcing plate 7 to further improve the strength and stability of the overall structure.

[0024] The top plate 1 is integrally injection molded with the first support foot 3, the second support foot 4 and the side support plate 5, and the fixed ring hole 2 is a component on the top plate 1 for connecting the ice maker. Each fixed ring hole 2 is composed of a support cylinder 22 and a ring support seat 21. The support cylinder 22 is fixed on the ring support seat 21 to form a ring structure for cooperating with the mounting hole at the bottom of the ice maker. The ring support seat 21 is connected with the straight reinforcing plate 6 and the staggered reinforcing plate 7 of the top plate 1 through the ring hole connecting plate 23 to ensure the stability of the fixed ring hole 2 when bearing the weight of the ice maker.

[0025] This design not only improves the carrying capacity of the fixed ring hole 2, but also distributes the weight of the ice maker evenly to each reinforcing structure of the top plate 1 through the ring hole connecting plate 23, avoiding structural damage caused by local stress concentration. In addition, the ring structure of the fixed ring hole 2 can adapt to different sizes of ice maker mounting holes, enhancing the universality of the structure.

[0026] The first support leg 3 and the second support leg 4 are the main support components of the structure, located on both sides of the top plate 1. The first support leg 3 is designed with a first recess 31, which not only reduces the weight of the support leg, but also provides a certain buffering effect, reducing the vibration transmission to the ground during equipment operation. The bottom of the first support leg 3 is provided with a connecting hole for connecting to the ground, which is fixed to the ground by bolts or expansion screws to ensure the stability of the structure.

[0027] The second support leg 4 adopts an inclined structure design, and the inclination angle can effectively disperse the weight of the ice maker and provide better anti-tilting performance. The second support leg 4 is also provided with a connecting hole for fixing to the ground. The design of the inclined structure can also adapt to different heights of ground unevenness, ensuring that the structure remains stable on uneven ground.

[0028] The side support plate 5 is designed with a second recess 54 and a side fixing leg 55. The bottom of the second recess 54 is provided with a connecting hole for connecting to the ground, which is used for fixing to the ground. The back of the second recess 54 is designed with an arc reinforcing strip 542, which is connected to the top plate 1 and the straight reinforcing plate 6, further enhancing the rigidity of the side support plate 5.

[0029] The side support plate 5 is also provided with a side fixing leg 55, which is provided with a hole for connecting to the ground, which is used as an additional fixing point to ensure the stability of the structure in the transverse direction. In addition, the side support plate 5 is designed with a first excess hole 51 and a second excess hole 53, which are used for line insertion, making it convenient for the power cord and signal cord of the ice maker to pass through the support structure, avoiding the safety hazards caused by exposed lines.

[0030] The back of the top plate 1 is provided with several straight reinforcing plates 6, which are arranged along the length direction of the top plate 1, used to enhance the longitudinal rigidity of the top plate. The central area of the top plate 1 is designed as an interlaced reinforcing plate 7, which further improves the overall strength of the top plate 1 through the interlaced arrangement, ensuring that it will not deform when bearing the weight of the ice maker.

[0031] The fixed ring hole 2 is connected to the straight reinforcing plate 6 and the interlaced reinforcing plate 7 through the ring hole connecting plate 23, which can evenly distribute the weight of the ice maker to each reinforcing structure of the top plate 1, avoiding local stress concentration. In addition, the design of the interlaced reinforcing plate 7 can effectively disperse the vibration, reducing the noise and vibration transmission during equipment operation.

[0032] This support structure is suitable for various types of ice makers, including commercial ice makers, industrial ice makers and household ice makers. It has strong versatility and can adapt to the installation requirements of ice makers of different sizes and weights. In the actual installation process, the user only needs to select the appropriate fixed ring hole 2 according to the installation hole position at the bottom of the ice maker, and fix the structure to the ground through the connecting holes on the support legs and side support plates.

[0033] In addition, this structure can also adapt to different installation environments, such as uneven ground, humid environment, etc. The design of the inclined support feet 4 and the side support plates 5 can effectively adjust the levelness of the structure, ensuring the stability of the ice maker during operation. The extra holes on the side support plates 5 facilitate line management, avoiding safety hazards caused by exposed lines.

[0034] During installation, the user first aligns the mounting holes at the bottom of the ice maker with the fixing ring holes 2 and fixes them with bolts or screws. Then, the connection holes on the support feet and side support plates are fixed to the ground to ensure the stability of the structure. In terms of maintenance, the user only needs to check the tightening of the bolts regularly to ensure that the structure is firmly connected to the ground. In addition, the extra holes on the side support plates 5 facilitate the user to organize and maintain the lines, avoiding line aging or damage.

[0035] Example 2: Reference Figs. 1-3 A bottom corner support structure for an ice maker, the support structure mainly includes a top plate 1, a first support foot 3, a second support foot 4, a side support plate 5, a fixing ring hole 2, a straight reinforcing plate 6, and a staggered reinforcing plate 7. The top plate 1 serves as the core component of the structure, responsible for connecting with the ice maker and achieving stable fixation with the ice maker through the fixing ring hole 2. The back of the top plate 1 is provided with several straight reinforcing plates 6, which are evenly arranged along the length direction of the top plate 1, used to enhance the longitudinal rigidity of the top plate, preventing deformation when bearing heavy pressure. The central area of the top plate 1 is designed as a staggered reinforcing plate 7, which further enhances the overall strength of the top plate 1 through staggered arrangement, ensuring that it will not deform when bearing the weight of the ice maker.

[0036] The top plate 1, the first support foot 3, the second support foot 4, and the side support plate 5 are integrally injection molded, ensuring the connection strength and integrity between the components. This process not only improves production efficiency, but also reduces errors during assembly, ensuring the precision and stability of the structure.

[0037] The fixing ring hole 2 is a key component on the top plate 1 for connecting with the ice maker. Each fixing ring hole 2 is composed of a support cylinder 22 and a ring support seat 21. The support cylinder 22 is fixed on the ring support seat 21, forming a ring structure for cooperation with the mounting hole at the bottom of the ice maker. The ring support seat 21 is connected to the straight reinforcing plate 6 and the staggered reinforcing plate 7 of the top plate 1 through a ring hole connecting plate 23, ensuring the stability of the fixing ring hole 2 when bearing the weight of the ice maker.

[0038] This design not only improves the load-bearing capacity of the fixed ring hole 2, but also distributes the weight of the ice maker evenly to each reinforced structure of the top plate 1 through the ring hole connecting plate 23, avoiding structural damage caused by local stress concentration. In addition, the annular structure of the fixed ring hole 2 can adapt to different sizes of ice maker mounting holes, enhancing the universality of the structure. The first support foot 3 and the second support foot 4 are the main support components of the structure, located on both sides of the top plate 1. The first support foot 3 is designed with a first recessed hole 31, which not only reduces the weight of the support foot, but also provides a certain buffering effect, reducing the vibration transmission to the ground during equipment operation. The bottom of the first support foot 3 is provided with a connecting hole connected to the ground, fixed to the ground by M10 bolts or expansion screws, ensuring the stability of the structure.

[0039] The second support foot 4 adopts an inclined structure design with an inclination angle of 15 degrees. This inclination angle can effectively disperse the weight of the ice maker and provide better anti-roll performance. The second support foot 4 is also provided with a connecting hole for fixing to the ground. The design of the inclined structure can also adapt to different heights of ground unevenness, ensuring that the structure remains stable on uneven ground. The bottom of the second support foot 4 is designed with a non-slip pad, further enhancing the grip of the structure and preventing sliding.

[0040] The side support plate 5 is a key component for lateral support of the structure, and is designed with a second recessed hole 54 and a side fixing foot 55. The bottom of the second recessed hole 54 is provided with a connecting hole connected to the ground for fixing to the ground. The back of the second recessed hole 54 is designed with an arc reinforcing strip 542 connected to the top plate 1 and the straight reinforcing plate 6, further enhancing the rigidity of the side support plate 5. The arc reinforcing strip 542 is made of high-strength steel material with a curvature radius of 50 mm, which can effectively disperse lateral force and reduce stress concentration.

[0041] The side support plate 5 is also provided with a side fixing foot 55, which is provided with a hole connected to the ground for additional fixing points to ensure the stability of the structure in the lateral direction. In addition, the side support plate 5 is designed with a first excess hole 51 and a second excess hole 53, which are used for line insertion to facilitate the passage of power lines and signal lines of the ice maker through the support structure, avoiding safety hazards caused by exposed lines. The diameter of the excess hole is 10 mm, which can adapt to the insertion requirements of various cables.

[0042] The back of the top plate 1 is provided with several straight reinforcing plates 6 arranged along the length direction of the top plate 1 for enhancing the longitudinal rigidity of the top plate. The height of the straight reinforcing plates 6 is 30 mm, the thickness is 3 mm, and the interval is 15 cm, forming a uniform reinforcing grid. The central area of the top plate 1 is designed as staggered reinforcing plates 7, which further enhance the overall strength of the top plate 1 by staggered arrangement, ensuring that no deformation occurs when bearing the weight of the ice maker. The staggered angle of the staggered reinforcing plates 7 is 45 degrees, and the staggered interval is 10 cm, which can effectively disperse the load and reduce vibration transmission.

[0043] The fixed ring hole 2 is connected to the straight reinforcing plates 6 and the staggered reinforcing plates 7 through the ring hole connecting plate 23. This connection method can evenly distribute the weight of the ice maker to each reinforcing structure of the top plate 1, avoiding local stress concentration. In addition, the design of the staggered reinforcing plates 7 can effectively disperse vibration, reduce noise and vibration transmission during equipment operation, and improve the running stability of the equipment.

[0044] This support structure is suitable for various types of ice makers, including commercial ice makers, industrial ice makers, and household ice makers. It has strong versatility and can adapt to the installation needs of ice makers of different sizes and weights. During actual installation, users only need to select the appropriate fixed ring hole 2 according to the position of the installation hole at the bottom of the ice maker, and fix the structure to the ground through the connecting holes on the support feet and side support plates.

[0045] This structure can also adapt to different installation environments, such as uneven ground and wet environments. The design of the inclined support feet 4 and the side support plates 5 can effectively adjust the levelness of the structure, ensuring the stability of the ice maker during operation. The spare holes on the side support plates 5 facilitate line management, avoiding safety hazards caused by exposed lines.

[0046] During installation, users first align the installation hole at the bottom of the ice maker with the fixed ring hole 2, and then fix it with M8 bolts or screws. Then, the connecting holes on the support feet and side support plates are fixed to the ground to ensure the stability of the structure. In terms of maintenance, users only need to check the tightening of the bolts regularly to ensure that the structure is firmly connected to the ground. In addition, the spare holes on the side support plates 5 facilitate users to organize and maintain the lines, avoiding line aging or damage.

[0047] The side support plates 5 need to withstand the lateral force of the ice maker and also need to maintain structural integrity under dynamic load. Therefore, several side reinforcing bars 52 are provided on the side support plates 5. These side reinforcing bars 52 are made of high-strength steel and are arranged longitudinally with uniform spacing on the surface of the side support plates 5. The height of each side reinforcing bar 52 is about 1.5 times the thickness of the side support plate, which is firmly fixed on the side support plate by welding or riveting, forming a reinforced grid structure.

[0048] The design of the side reinforcement bars 52 not only significantly improves the bending stiffness of the side support plate 5, but also disperses the vibration stress generated during the operation of the ice maker by increasing the contact area. In practical applications, the side reinforcement bars 52 can effectively prevent the propagation of fatigue cracks in the side support plate due to long-term stress, thereby prolonging the service life of the structure. In addition, the arrangement of the side reinforcement bars 52 also provides additional fixing points for line management, making it convenient for users to organize and fix the power lines and signal lines of the ice maker along the side reinforcement bars 52, thereby avoiding line loosening or wear.

[0049] At the connection points of the support structure, the connection edges of the first support leg 3, the second support leg 4, and the side support plate 5 with the top plate 1 are designed with arc transitions. This design breaks through the limitations of traditional right-angle connections and achieves uniform stress distribution through smooth curved transitions. The curvature radius of the arc is precisely calculated to ensure that the stress concentration coefficient at the connection points is reduced to a minimum when dynamic loads are applied. The arc transition eliminates stress concentration at right-angle connections, allowing loads to be evenly transmitted to adjacent structures along the arc, reducing the risk of local fatigue damage. The vibrations and impact forces generated during the operation of the ice maker are effectively cushioned by the arc transition, reducing the dynamic stress amplitude at the connection points. The arc design provides a larger assembly tolerance range, simplifying the installation process of the support legs and the top plate, while enhancing the self-adaptive ability of the structure on uneven ground.

[0050] In actual installation, the arc transition design allows the support legs to maintain close contact with the top plate on slightly inclined ground, ensuring the overall stability of the structure. This design is particularly suitable for ice maker installations in industrial environments, as these environments often have complex conditions such as uneven ground and significant vibrations.

[0051] The combination of the side reinforcement bars 52 and the arc transition design enables the support structure to exhibit excellent stability and durability under heavy loads and dynamic loads. The side reinforcement bars 52 enhance the rigidity of the side support plate 5, ensuring the anti-deformation ability of the structure in the transverse direction, while the arc transition optimizes stress distribution, prolonging the fatigue life of the connection points.

[0052] The present utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present utility model.
