Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of slush machine technology, specifically to a drainage structure for a slush machine. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve and their pace of life accelerates, they have higher demands for household appliances. Generally speaking, smaller household appliances are easier to move and use, and can better meet the needs of modern people's fast-paced lives and work. Smoothie machines, used to make smoothies, have gradually become common household appliances.

[0003] Existing slush machines are usually equipped with a matching, detachable water collection box. The water collection box is used to collect condensation water generated inside the machine due to temperature differences during the slush making process. It also collects water splashed out during the disassembly of the slush machine's cylinder, preventing condensation water from seeping into the circuitry or mechanical parts and causing malfunctions. After collecting a certain amount of condensation water, the matching, detachable water collection box is removed, the water is poured out, and then the machine is cleaned to prevent the growth of microorganisms and bacteria and to prevent mold or odors from appearing after long-term use. The traditional blender's removable water tray, designed to match the drum, is ideal in principle. However, in practice, frequent disassembly and cleaning of the water tray reduces the user experience. Furthermore, frequent disassembly and cleaning can create gaps between the water tray and the machine body, leading to the water tray becoming loose. Additionally, when users clean the water tray themselves, the infrequent disassembly and cleaning makes it easy for dirt to accumulate in the corners, making it difficult to clean and causing mold or odors. Although some existing solutions use antibacterial materials such as silver ion coatings for the water tray, it is ultimately difficult to solve the problem at its source.

[0004] Therefore, this application proposes a drainage scheme to replace the existing water connection scheme. Utility Model Content
