DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to enable the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application to be more clearly understood, the following will further describe the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0022] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application, but the present application can also be practiced without the specific details described herein, and therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following description. EMBODIMENT

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-4 The present application provides a technical solution: a low-energy-consumption commercial large ice brick machine, comprising a body 1, a motor 3 fixedly installed at the upper end of the body 1, a rotating shaft 3 fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 3, a water pumping propeller 16 fixedly installed at the lower end of the rotating shaft 3, the motor 3 can drive the rotating shaft 3 to rotate the water pumping propeller 16, a circulating guide plate 4 is arranged outside the water pumping propeller 16, a mold support plate 5 is fixedly installed inside the body 1, an evaporator 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom end position inside the body 1, a refrigeration cycle port 7 is arranged on one side of the evaporator 6, an ice mold water tank 8 is fixedly installed inside the body 1, and a refrigeration loop 17 is formed at the upper end of the mold support plate 5. EMBODIMENT

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-4, one side of the evaporator 6 is fixedly connected with a gas-liquid separator 9, one side of the gas-liquid separator 9 is fixedly connected with a drying filter 10, the upper end of the drying filter 10 is fixedly connected with a liquid storage tank 11, one side of the liquid storage tank 11 is fixedly connected with a compressor 12, one side of the compressor 12 is fixedly connected with an oil-gas separator 13, one side of the oil-gas separator 13 is provided with a control electric box 14, the rear of the oil-gas separator 13 is fixedly connected with a condenser 15, the upper end of the machine body 1 is fixedly installed with a sight glass 18, the rear of the condenser 15 is fixedly installed with a cooling fan 19, the gas-liquid separator 9 and the drying filter 10 are fixedly connected with an electromagnetic valve 20, the compressor 12 and the oil-gas separator 13 are fixedly connected with a high-temperature and high-pressure pipe 21, and the bottoms of the gas-liquid separator 9, the drying filter 10, the liquid storage tank 11, the compressor 12, the oil-gas separator 13 and the control electric box 14 are fixedly installed with mounting brackets 22.

[0025] Working principle: The refrigerant is compressed into high-temperature and high-pressure vapor in the compressor 12, then cooled into liquid by the condenser 15, and stored in the liquid storage tank 11. Then, the liquid enters the evaporator 6 after being cooled and decompressed by the expansion valve, absorbs heat and evaporates into low-pressure vapor, and is sucked into the compressor 12 again for circulation. This cycle ensures the stable operation and temperature control of the system. The drying filter 10 absorbs the residual moisture in the refrigeration system to prevent ice blockage and corrosion. Moisture may cause ice blockage in the refrigeration system, affecting the refrigeration effect; at the same time, moisture may also react with oxygen, acidic substances and other substances in the system, corrode copper parts, damage the cooperation gap between the cylinder and the journal, and the sealing of the exhaust valve piece, thereby shortening the service life of the compressor 12; it can also filter impurities in the refrigeration system, including metal chips, oxides, dust, etc. These impurities may come from incomplete cleaning of parts, loose assembly process, etc. If these impurities enter the refrigeration pipeline, they may have a serious impact on the system, such as causing damage to the compressor 12, motor winding or capillary tube, etc. The sight glass 18 is installed on the liquid pipeline of the refrigerant, and through the transparent wide-angle sight glass, the flow of the refrigerant and the gas-liquid phase change condition can be observed. Under normal circumstances, only liquid flows when the refrigerant flows, and there is no or only a small amount of white bubbles. If there are a large number of bubbles in the system, it may mean that the refrigerant is insufficient or the system is blocked. The indicator element at the center position of the sight glass 18 is highly sensitive to moisture, and the water vapor content in the refrigerant can be judged by observing the color change of the indicator. Generally, green indicates normal water vapor content, and yellow indicates high water vapor content. The water extraction propeller 16 extracts cooling water to the upper part, and the cooling water absorbs the material in the mold to quickly and effectively reduce the material temperature, so that the upper and lower temperatures are the same, realizing accurate control of the material temperature, improving production efficiency, reducing energy consumption and cost. It can also prevent the occurrence of cooling water clumping phenomenon, and the circulation guide plate 4 can improve the cooling water lifting force.

[0026] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application in other forms, and any skilled person in the art can modify or change the above disclosed technical content to equivalent embodiments applied to other fields with equivalent changes, but any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiments according to the technical essence of the present application without departing from the technical scheme of the present application still falls within the protection scope of the present application.
