[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0019] It should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", and "circumferential" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model or simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0020] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0021] The term “exemplary” as used herein means “serving as an example, embodiment, or illustration.” Any embodiment illustrated herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as superior to or better than other embodiments.
[0022] Furthermore, to better illustrate this application, numerous specific details are provided in the following detailed embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that this application can be implemented without certain specific details. In some instances, methods, means, components, and circuits well-known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail in order to highlight the main points of this application.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an evaporator for an ice maker includes an ice mold 1 and a copper tube 2. The ice mold 1 has multiple mold cavities 3 on one side and a planar structure 4 on the other side. The copper tube 2 is fixedly installed on the planar structure 4 of the ice mold 1. The planar structure 4 is also provided with a mounting groove 5 for installing the copper tube 2. Multiple claws 6 are also provided on the two side walls of the mounting groove at the end away from the planar structure 4. In this embodiment, the ice mold 1 is made of die-cast aluminum alloy.
[0024] As can be seen from the above method, since the copper tube 2 is fixed to the planar structure 4 of the ice mold 1 through the mounting groove 5 and the copper tube is fixed in the mounting groove by the claw, it can be ensured that the copper tube 2 can be firmly fixed in the mounting groove 5. During assembly, the copper tube 2 is installed in the mounting groove 5, and then the mounting groove 5 is pressed down by the punch press. At this time, the copper tube 2 is wrapped in the mounting groove 5. Compared with the installation method of the pressure plate, the required parts are reduced, the assembly steps are fewer, and the production efficiency is better.
[0025] To ensure that the mounting groove 5 is firmly fixed to the planar structure of the ice mold 1, in this embodiment, the mounting groove 5 and the planar structure are integrally molded.
[0026] Furthermore, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the claws 6 on the two side walls are symmetrically or staggered. However, in actual production, the position of the claws 6 can be limited according to actual needs. Specific position limitations will not be listed here. Since the copper tube 2 is wrapped in the mounting groove 5, it is prevented from falling out of the mounting groove 5 when shaking, thereby extending the service life of the product.
[0027] In addition, it is worth mentioning that the claw 6 and the side wall are made in one piece. Because they are fixed in one piece, the connection between the claw 6 and the side wall can be ensured.
[0028] Furthermore, the inlet and outlet of the copper tube 2 are located on the same side, and the inlet and outlet of the copper tube 2 extend out of one end of the ice mold 1.
[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
