[0002] Cold beverage equipment is a device that transforms liquids into finished products such as smoothies and shaved ice. Existing cold beverage equipment is typically commercial, and it usually employs a multi-chamber, partitioned structure. The evaporator assembly, drive assembly (including the drive motor), and electronic control assembly (including the controller and display) are located at opposite ends of the evaporator assembly, forming a linear distribution of "drive assembly-evaporator-electronic control assembly." This structure occupies space at both ends of the evaporator, increasing its lateral length. Furthermore, it requires insulating sheet metal or spaces between the drive assembly and the evaporator, and between the electronic control assembly and the evaporator, further increasing the lateral length. While this structure is acceptable in commercial settings, it is significantly limited in the home market. Large-volume home cold beverage equipment occupies considerable kitchen space, failing to meet the space utilization requirements of most users, thus severely hindering the promotion and development of home cold beverage equipment.

[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following will describe this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is hereby declared that the terms "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," "back," "inner," and "outer," etc., appearing or about to appear in this document, are based solely on the accompanying drawings and are not intended to specifically limit this utility model.
[0038] See Figure 1 and Figure 2This utility model discloses a cold beverage device, including a housing assembly 1, a refrigeration assembly 2, a drive assembly 6, and an electronic control assembly 5 disposed within the housing assembly 1. The housing assembly 1 is used to fix the refrigeration assembly 2, the drive assembly 6, and the electronic control assembly 5. The refrigeration assembly 2 is used to refrigerate and make ice from liquids such as beverages and milk. The drive assembly 6 is used to drive the evaporator 22 of the refrigeration assembly 2 to rotate, thereby achieving dynamic and continuous ice making. The electronic control assembly 5 is used to control the movement of the evaporator 22. The housing assembly 1 includes a first mounting bracket 11. The refrigeration assembly 2 includes an evaporator 22 and a condenser 26. The evaporator 22 is disposed on the first mounting bracket 11, which supports the evaporator 22. The drive assembly 6 is drively connected to the evaporator 22 and can drive the evaporator 22 to rotate. In traditional commercial beverage equipment, the drive assembly 6 typically drives the evaporator 22 via a shaft connection. The drive shaft is connected to the evaporator 22 in a transmission manner. Since the drive shaft itself has length, its presence further widens the width of the equipment. However, in this embodiment of the present invention, the evaporator 22 can be driven by a transmission chain or transmission belt. Using a transmission belt or transmission chain can avoid increasing the length in the lateral space of the equipment, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the volume.
[0039] Furthermore, the first mounting bracket 11 is provided with a feeding mounting cavity 111, and the housing assembly 1 is provided with an electrical control mounting area 121. The electrical control mounting area 121 is located on one side of the feeding mounting cavity 111 and is isolated from it. The evaporator 22 is located within the feeding mounting cavity 111, and the drive assembly 6 and the electrical control assembly 5 are located within the electrical control mounting area 121. Therefore, since the drive assembly 6 and the electrical control assembly 5 are both located on the same side of the feeding mounting cavity 111, it avoids having them located at both ends of the evaporator 22, thus shortening the lateral length of the equipment. Moreover, the drive assembly 6 and the electrical control assembly 5 are isolated only by the electrical control mounting area 121, eliminating the need for separate isolation areas at both ends of the evaporator 22, thereby further shortening the lateral length of the equipment.
[0040] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are as follows:
[0041] This utility model embodiment of the cold drink equipment includes a housing assembly 1, a refrigeration assembly 2, a driving assembly 6, and an electrical control assembly 5 disposed within the housing assembly 1. The housing assembly 1 includes a first mounting frame 11, on which a feeding mounting cavity 111 is provided. The evaporator 22 of the refrigeration assembly 2 is disposed in the feeding mounting cavity 111. An electrical control mounting area 121 is provided inside the housing assembly 1. The driving assembly 6 and the electrical control assembly 5 are disposed within the electrical control mounting area 121. The electrical control mounting area 121 is located on one side of the feeding mounting cavity 111 and is isolated from the feeding mounting cavity 111. In this invention, the drive assembly 6 and the electronic control assembly 5 are both located on the same side of the feed mounting cavity 111, which avoids the need to set them at both ends of the evaporator 22 separately, thus shortening the lateral length of the equipment. Moreover, the drive assembly 6 and the electronic control assembly 5 are isolated only through the electronic control mounting area 121, eliminating the need to set isolation areas at both ends of the evaporator 22 separately, which also saves lateral isolation space, further shortens the lateral length of the equipment, reduces its volume, and meets the user's requirements for equipment size.
[0042] See Figure 2 The first mounting bracket 11 includes a first side plate 112, a rear panel 113, and a second side plate 114. The first side plate 112 and the second side plate 114 are respectively disposed on both sides of the rear panel 113. The first side plate 112, the rear panel 113, and the second side plate 114 form a "door" shape, and the first side plate 112, the rear panel 113, and the second side plate 114 surround the feeding mounting cavity 111. The electrical control mounting area 121 and the feeding mounting cavity 111 are connected. Separated by the second side plate 114, the electronic control component 5 and the drive component 6 are disposed on the side of the second side plate 114 away from the first side plate 112. The evaporator 22 is disposed in the feed mounting cavity 111 and located between the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 114. The second side plate 114 constitutes an isolation structure for the electronic control component 5 and the drive component 6 on the evaporator 22, realizing unidirectional isolation and saving isolation space at the other end of the evaporator 22.
[0043] In addition, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first mounting bracket 11 is integrally formed, wherein the first side plate 112, the rear panel 113, and the second side plate 114 are integrally formed, preferably integrally injection molded or bent from the same piece of stainless steel sheet. Since the first side plate 112, the rear panel 113, and the second side plate 114 are integrally formed, there are no gaps between them, creating a continuous sealed interface between the feeding mounting cavity 111 and the receiving cavity 12, achieving physical isolation between cleaning operations and electrical protection.
[0044] The cold drink equipment also includes a feeding assembly 3 for feeding liquid into the refrigeration assembly 2. The feeding assembly 3 includes a feeding box 31 and a tray 32. The feeding box 31 is located above one side of the tray 32 and is used to hold liquid. The tray 32 is provided with a plug valve 321 that can communicate with the feeding box 31. When the feeding box 31 is assembled and connected to the tray 32, the plug valve 321 opens, and the liquid in the feeding box 31 can flow into the tray 32 under the action of gravity. The liquid level in the tray 32 continues to rise. The evaporator 22 is located above the other side of the tray 32. After the water level rises, the liquid on the tray 32 can come into contact with the surface of the evaporator 22. Then the evaporator 22 cools the liquid, and the liquid can float on the surface of the evaporator 22 to form an ice layer.
[0045] See Figure 4 and Figure 6 The bottom of the feeding installation cavity 111 is provided with an inclined surface 115. The inclined surface 115 is located between the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 114 and is inclined downward from the bottom of the rear enclosure 113. The inclined surface 115 is integrally formed from the bottom area of the rear enclosure 113, forming a shield for the interior of the housing assembly 1, achieving waterproof sealing. The first side plate 112 and the second side plate 114 are provided with inclined grooves 1121. The inclined grooves 1121 are located at the edge of the inclined surface 115 and are arranged along the inclined surface 115. The material tray 32 is provided with sliders 322 on both sides. The sliders 322 protrude from the side wall of the material tray 32 and can form a clearance fit with the inclined grooves 1121. During installation, the sliders 322 can be inserted into the inclined grooves 1121 and slide along the inclined grooves 1121.
[0046] See Figure 7The cold drink equipment also includes a scraping assembly 4, which comprises a blade holder 41 and a blade 42. The blade holder 41 is located on the side of the evaporator 22 to cut the ice layer on the surface of the evaporator 22. The blade 42 is connected to the blade holder 41 on the side near the evaporator 22 and has a cutting edge 421 located on the side of the evaporator 22. When an ice layer forms on the surface of the evaporator 22, the cutting edge 421 uses shearing force to peel off the ice layer, causing ice chips to slide down the inclined surface 115 of the blade 42. The blade 42 is integrally formed with the blade holder 41, or the blade 42 is detachably fixed to the blade holder 41.
[0047] See Figure 7 The feed mounting cavity 111 has a scraper insertion port at its opening, and the tool holder 41 can be inserted into the feed mounting cavity 111 through the scraper insertion port. The first side plate 112 and the second side plate 114 are each provided with a vertically arranged first slot 1122. The cross-section of the first slot 1122 gradually narrows from top to bottom, forming a dovetail groove. The tool holder 41 has a first insertion rail 411 on both sides. The shape of the first insertion rail 411 corresponds to the shape of the first slot 1122, and the first insertion rail 411 can be inserted into the first slot 1122. The tool holder 41 is assembled by inserting from top to bottom. The tool holder 41 can be locked by the connection between the first slot 1122, which gradually narrows from top to bottom, and the first rail 411. The narrowing cross-section design of the first slot 1122 means that the tool holder 41 does not need to be precisely positioned during installation. The first rail 411 automatically centers and locks under the action of gravity. During disassembly, the tool holder 41 can be disassembled simply by lifting it vertically, thus forming an easy-to-disassemble and assemble fixed structure.
[0048] See Figure 7 The housing assembly 1 further includes a protective plate 13, which covers the side of the feed mounting cavity 111 away from the evaporator 22. The protective plate 13 covers the upper part of the blade holder 41 and the upper part of the evaporator 22, forming a physical barrier to prevent direct contact between the user and the evaporator 22 or the blade 42. Both the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 114 are provided with second slots 1123. The inner side of the protective plate 13 is provided with a second insertion rail 131, the shape of which corresponds to the shape of the second slot 1123. The second insertion rail 131 can be inserted into the second slot 1123. The second slot 1123 is horizontally or inclined, and the second insertion rail 131 can be inserted horizontally or inclinedly into the second slot 1123 from the side of the blade holder 41 to form a fixed connection.
[0049] See Figure 8The refrigeration assembly 2 further includes a mounting plate 23, a bearing 24, and a coupling 25. The mounting plate 23 can be fixed to the outer casing of the beverage cooling device. The mounting plate 23 has a first mounting hole 231. The outer ring of the bearing 24 is fixed in the first mounting hole 231. One end of the coupling 25 is fixed to the inner ring of the bearing 24, and the other end of the coupling 25 is connected to the end of the evaporator 22 opposite to the first side cover. The first side plate 112 has an insertion hole 1124. The evaporator 22 can be inserted into the discharge mounting cavity through the insertion hole 1124. The mounting plate 23 can be fixed to the first side plate 112 and can cover the insertion hole 1124. During installation, the bearing 24 is first installed in the first mounting hole 231, and then the connecting shaft 25 is connected to the bearing 24. This connects the evaporator 22 to the mounting plate 23, forming an integral structure with the evaporator 22. The entire integral structure is then inserted into the insertion hole 1124 to complete the installation. The integrated design of the mounting plate 23, the bearing 24, and the connecting shaft 25, which fixes the evaporator 22 on one side, significantly simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the evaporator 22.
[0050] See Figure 3 The drive assembly 6 includes a drive element 61 and a drive disk 62 that is pulverizedly connected to the drive element 61. The drive disk 62 is pulverizedly connected to the evaporator 22, and the drive element 61 can drive the evaporator 22 to rotate. The drive disk 62 is rotatably connected to the second side plate. The movable end of the drive element 61 is connected to the drive disk 62 via a drive belt or drive chain. One end of the evaporator 22 passes through the second side plate 114 and is connected to the drive disk 62. In the drive assembly 6, the drive element 61 and the drive disk 62 are flexibly connected via a drive belt or drive chain. The drive disk 62 is rotatably mounted in the shaft hole of the second side plate 114 via a bearing, so that the rotation axis of the drive disk 62 is parallel to the output shaft of the drive element 61. This arrangement extends the power transmission path longitudinally along the equipment, avoiding the lateral space expansion required by traditional gearboxes and reducing the overall width of the drive assembly 6. The transmission belt or chain adopts a synchronous tooth structure, and its inner teeth mesh with the output wheel of the drive component 61 and the pulley of the drive disc 62 to eliminate power loss caused by slippage, while ensuring the rotational speed accuracy of the evaporator 22. The movable end of the drive component 61 and the drive disc 62 are arranged in a staggered manner, which can reduce the longitudinal space between the drive component 61 and the drive disc 62, thereby minimizing the volume.
[0051] See Figure 5 and Figure 9The housing assembly 1 further includes a second mounting bracket 14. The first mounting bracket 11 is fixed to the front end of the chassis 15, and the second mounting bracket 14 is disposed at the rear end of the chassis 15, forming a front-to-back support structure. The second mounting bracket 14 is connected to the first mounting bracket 11, or to the chassis 15, or simultaneously to both the first mounting bracket 11 and the chassis 15.
[0052] When the second mounting bracket 14 is connected to the first mounting bracket 11, a limiting protrusion 117 is provided on the upper rear edge of the first mounting bracket 11, the limiting protrusion 117 protruding upwards. A limiting groove 141 is provided on the upper front edge of the second mounting bracket 14, the groove opening of the limiting groove 141 facing downwards. The limiting protrusion 117 can be inserted into the limiting groove 141, thereby forming a limiting fixation. This structure can effectively suppress the frame deformation caused by the vibration of the compressor 21 during equipment operation, ensuring the alignment accuracy of the condenser 26 and the evaporator 22.
[0053] The housing assembly 1 further includes an inner mounting bracket 16, which is fixed to the rear end of the chassis 15 and located between the first mounting bracket 11 and the second mounting bracket 14.

During installation, the positioning insert 261 can be inserted into the positioning through hole 162. The condenser 26 is positioned by the positioning insert 261 on the end plate and the positioning through hole 162 on the first mounting portion 161.
[0054] See Figure 9 The refrigeration assembly 2 further includes a cooling fan 27 for dissipating heat from the condenser 26 and the compressor 21. A second mounting portion 163 is provided on the side of the inner mounting bracket 16 away from the second mounting bracket 14. The second mounting portion 163 is opposite to and communicates with the first mounting portion 161. The cooling fan 27 is fixed inside the second mounting portion 163. A ventilation hole 164 is provided between the first mounting portion 161 and the second mounting portion 163. The air blown by the cooling fan 27 can pass through the condenser 26, thereby dissipating heat from the condenser 26. The refrigeration assembly 2 also includes a compressor 21, which is fixed to the chassis 15 and located between the inner mounting bracket 16 and the first mounting bracket 11. The cooling fan 27 is located on the side of the compressor 21, and the driven air circulation can also cool the compressor 21.
[0055] The housing assembly 1 also includes a left side plate 17 and a right side plate 18. Both the left side plate 17 and the right side plate 18 are provided with snap-fit blocks 171. The snap-fit blocks 171 are hook-shaped. Both the first mounting bracket 11 and the second mounting bracket 14 are provided with snap-fit holes 142. During installation, the snap-fit blocks 171 can be inserted into the snap-fit holes 142. The hook-shaped ends are provided with guide slopes and form a self-locking structure with the snap-fit holes 142 on the first mounting bracket 11 and the second mounting bracket 14.
[0056] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, the evaporator 22 includes an ice-making side wall 221 and end walls 222 at both ends of the ice-making side wall 221. The end walls 222 have a mounting shaft 223 in the middle that connects to an external drive assembly. The external drive assembly can drive the mounting shaft 223 to rotate, thereby driving the evaporator 22 to rotate. The distance between the end walls 222 and at least one of the inner walls of the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 114 is 8mm-18mm. This gap is used to install components such as sealing rings to ensure that the evaporator 22 maintains a sealed state with at least one of the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 114 during rotation, preventing refrigerant leakage.
[0057] See Figure 10 The condenser 26 includes interconnected bent pipe sections 263 and straight pipe sections. The straight pipe section is located in the middle of the condenser 26, and the refrigerant flows vertically within it.

Each bent pipe section 263 includes several condensing elbows 262, with the angle between the condensing elbows 262 and the width direction of the condenser 26 being 45° or 90°. The condensing elbows 262 are used to guide the refrigerant direction. The 45° angled condensing elbows 262 occupy a shorter distance in the width direction, allowing the condenser 26 to be narrower, saving space, and facilitating production and installation.
[0058] The above are preferred embodiments 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 are also considered to be within the protection scope of the present utility model.
