Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of ice maker technology, specifically relating to an ice shovel fixing bracket for ice makers. Background Technology

[0002] An ice maker is a specialized device that cools and freezes water into ice cubes using a refrigeration system. It mainly consists of a compressor, condenser, evaporator, and control system. Depending on the ice-making method, it can be categorized into cube ice makers, flake ice makers, and granular ice makers, and is widely used in catering, medical, food processing, and industrial cooling industries. Its working principle involves the refrigerant circulating and absorbing heat, causing water to freeze on the evaporator surface. The ice cubes are then separated and collected by a de-icing device. Modern ice makers are characterized by high efficiency, energy saving, and automated control, meeting the ice needs of various scenarios.

[0003] Ice scraper holders on ice makers are usually installed on the inner wall of the equipment with screws. However, during long-term use, the screws may loosen or fall off due to vibration or wear, causing them to fall into the ice maker. This situation may affect the normal use of the ice scraper and interfere with the operation of the ice maker. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0024] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0025] Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1-5 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides an ice shovel fixing bracket for an ice maker, comprising:

[0027] The ice-making mechanism 100 includes an ice maker body 110, an ice scoop 120 disposed on the inner wall of the ice maker body 110, a fixed beam 130 disposed on the top of the ice maker body 110, a top plate 140 fixedly installed on the top of the ice maker body 110, and a door frame 150 disposed on the surface of the ice maker body 110.

[0028] The fixing mechanism 200 is a fixing bracket 210 installed on the inner wall of the ice maker body 110 and used to limit the ice scoop 120.

[0029] The ice scraper 120 is hung on the inner wall of the ice maker body 110 by the fixing bracket 210, which replaces the traditional screw fixing method and avoids the problem of the ice scraper 120 falling into the ice maker body 110 due to loose screws, thus ensuring the stable operation and performance of the ice maker body 110.

[0030] Specifically, the top of the ice maker body 110 has two mounting slots 160 for mounting the fixed beam 130. The ends of the fixed beam 130 are fixedly installed inside the mounting slots 160 by mounting bolts.

[0031] Furthermore, the fixing bracket 210 includes a fixing bracket body 211 for limiting the installation of the ice shovel 120, with the top of the fixing bracket body 211 hanging inside the mounting groove 160.

[0032] The fixed frame body 211 is used to limit the installation of the ice scraper 120, avoiding the need for screws in the traditional installation of the ice scraper 120, and preventing the screws from loosening and falling into the ice maker body 110, which would affect the performance of the ice maker body 110.

[0033] Preferably, the top of the main body 211 of the fixing frame is bent at an angle of 90 degrees.

[0034] Specifically, by setting the bending angle of the top of the fixing frame body 211 to ninety degrees, the top of the fixing frame body 211 can be hung inside the mounting groove 160.

[0035] Furthermore, two positioning rings 212 are fixedly installed at the top of the main body 211 of the fixing frame, and two positioning protrusions 213 for engaging the positioning rings 212 are fixedly installed on the surface of the fixing beam 130.

[0036] The positioning protrusion 213 is engaged with the inner side of the positioning ring 212. Through the cooperation between the positioning ring 212 and the positioning protrusion 213, the fixing frame body 211 is engaged and positioned to prevent the top of the fixing frame body 211 from leaving the interior of the mounting groove 160 and improve the limiting effect on the fixing frame body 211.

[0037] Furthermore, the top plate 140 and the door frame 150 are respectively snapped onto the top of the fixed beam 130.

[0038] The top plate 140 and the door frame 150 are used to engage the top of the fixed beam 130, thereby improving the installation stability of the fixed beam 130 and thus improving the pressing stability of the fixed beam 130 on the top of the fixed frame body 211 and the positioning ring 212.

[0039] When using the device, to install the main body 211 of the fixing frame, first disassemble the fixing beam 130, the top plate 140 and the door frame 150. Then, install the bent part of the main body 211 of the fixing frame inside the mounting groove 160, so that the top of the main body 211 of the fixing frame is hung in the designated place inside the mounting groove 160. Next, snap the end of the fixing beam 130 into the inside of the mounting groove 160, so that the positioning protrusion 213 is snapped into the inside of the positioning ring 212. Then, install the fixing beam 130 using the mounting bolts. Finally, install the top plate 140 and the door frame 150 in the corresponding positions on the ice maker body 110.

[0040] In summary, the fixed bracket 210 is used to hang the ice scoop 120 on the inner wall of the ice maker body 110, replacing the traditional screw fixing method. This avoids the problem of the ice maker body 110 falling into the interior of the ice maker body 110 due to loose screws, thus ensuring the stable operation and performance of the ice maker body 110.
