AI Technical Summary
The wastewater tank of an ice maker is prone to clogging, causing wastewater to overflow, making the floor slippery and damaging internal electronic components.
The system uses a first water level sensor and a pump to monitor the water level in the sewage tank in real time and pump out sewage in a timely manner; a second water level sensor controls the operation of the drain valve to prevent excessive water in the inlet tank; and a water collection box and overflow pan collect condensate to prevent overflow.
It effectively prevents the wastewater tank from clogging and overflowing, protects the internal electrical components of the ice maker, and keeps the equipment dry.

Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a drainage system of ice maker.
BACKGROUND TECHNIQUE
[0002] Ice maker is a kind of electrical equipment that can continuously produce and manufacture ice cubes, and is usually used in commercial purpose, and is used in some tea shops, coffee shops and the like to prepare tea and coffee with a large amount of ice cubes. The ice maker is usually provided with a water inlet tank and a sewage tank inside, the water inlet tank supplies water to the ice maker to produce ice, and the sewage tank receives the sewage discharged from the water inlet tank, additionally stores the condensed water dripping from the ice maker, and removes the sewage through a sewage pipe always open. However, in actual use, it is often found that when the sewage tank is blocked, the water in the sewage tank will overflow, causing the ground to be slippery and the internal electronic components of the ice maker to be wet, resulting in damage.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvement.

[0006] In one or more embodiments, a second water level sensor (11) is arranged in the water inlet tank, and the second water level sensor is used to control the operation of the drainage valve body.
[0007] In one or more embodiments, a water receiving box is arranged on the mounting frame, and the water receiving box is communicated with the sewage tank through an overflow pipe.
[0008] In one or more embodiments, an overflow plate is arranged at the bottom of the mounting frame, the overflow plate is arranged in an upward opening mode, and the overflow plate is fixed to the mounting frame.
[0009] In one or more embodiments, the water inlet is arranged at the top of the water inlet tank, and a threaded connection structure is arranged on the water inlet.
[0010] In one or more embodiments, the sensing end of the first water level sensor is located at a position of two-thirds of the overall depth dimension of the sewage tank.
[0011] The effect of the drainage system compared with the background art is that the real-time monitoring of the first water level sensor and the second water level sensor can avoid the problem of overflow caused by excessive water in the sewage tank and the water inlet tank. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0012] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic view of the drainage system of the embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0013] This part will describe the specific embodiments of the utility model in detail, the preferred embodiments of the utility model are shown in the drawings, the role of the drawings is to supplement the description of the text part with graphics, so that people can intuitively and visually understand each technical feature and the overall technical scheme of the utility model, but it cannot be understood as the limitation of the protection scope of the utility model.
[0014] Referring to the drawings Figure 1 The application provides a drainage system of an ice maker, which comprises a sewage tank 2, a water inlet tank 3 and a pump body 4 arranged on a mounting frame 1, the water inlet tank 3 is located above the sewage tank, the water inlet tank is connected with a water inlet 5 and a water supply pipe 6, the water inlet is used for connecting a water source provided by the outside world, the water supply pipe is connected with a drainage pipe 7, the water supply pipe is connected with an ice making mechanism of the ice maker, the drainage pipe is connected with the sewage tank 2, a drainage valve body 8 is arranged on the drainage pipe, when the drainage valve body is opened, the water in the water inlet tank is discharged into the sewage tank under the action of gravity, a first water level sensor 9 is arranged in the sewage tank, an input end of the pump body 4 is connected with the sewage tank through a sewage discharge pipe 10, when the first water level sensor 9 is triggered, the pump body works to discharge the sewage in the sewage tank, the first water level sensor is used for monitoring the water level in the sewage tank in real time, so that the overflow of the sewage tank caused by the failure to timely discharge the water in the sewage tank is avoided.
