Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice cream equipment technology, and in particular to a multi-form dispensing device for an ice cream machine. Background Technology

[0002] In ice cream making and sales, the ice cream machine is a key piece of equipment, and the shape of its dispensing spout directly determines the appearance and presentation of the ice cream. However, existing ice cream machine dispensing spouts have significant limitations. Currently, ice cream machine spouts can typically only dispense ice cream of a fixed shape; if the shape of the ice cream needs to be adjusted, it can only be achieved by changing the dispensing spout. This design has many drawbacks.

[0003] First, changing the dispensing spout is a complex and time-consuming process. In practice, businesses need to stop the machine, disassemble the old spout, and install the new one. This process not only takes time but can also damage the equipment if not handled properly, thus affecting the normal production and sales of ice cream. In commercial operations, every minute of downtime can result in potential revenue loss, especially during peak customer traffic periods.

[0004] Secondly, replacing the dispensing spout also carries the risk of increased bacterial contamination. During the disassembly and installation of the spout, its internal structure and connections may be exposed to the external environment. If the operating environment is not clean enough, or if operators do not strictly adhere to hygiene regulations, bacteria, dust, and other contaminants can easily enter the spout and contaminate the ice cream. This not only affects the quality and taste of the ice cream but may also pose a potential threat to consumers' health and create unnecessary food safety hazards for businesses.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need for an ice cream machine dispensing device that can quickly and conveniently adjust the shape of the ice cream filling while effectively avoiding the risk of bacterial contamination. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] like Figure 1-4 This utility model is a multi-form dispensing device for an ice cream machine, including a dispensing mechanism 1 connected to the outlet of the refrigeration mechanism of the ice cream machine. The dispensing mechanism 1 includes a housing 2, and an inner cavity 3 is provided inside the housing 2. One side of the inner cavity 3 is connected to the outlet of the refrigeration mechanism of the ice cream machine. A dispensing channel 4 is provided on the lower surface of the inner cavity 3. The dispensing channel 4 is connected to a first dispensing port 5 provided on the lower surface of the housing 2 through a second dispensing port 6. A control handle 12 for controlling the extrusion of ice cream is provided on the upper surface of the housing 2.

[0026] Specifically, the lower end of the second discharge port 6 is fitted inside the first discharge port 5, and the upper end of the second discharge port 6 is fitted outside the discharge channel 4.

[0027] Furthermore, the lower ends of the first outlet 5 and the second outlet 6 are respectively provided with a first shaping part 501 and a second shaping part 601. The outer diameter of the second shaping part 601 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first shaping part 501. This design allows the ice cream to be squeezed according to the shape of the second outlet 6 after the lower end of the second outlet 6 descends to be flush with the first outlet 5. Moreover, both the first shaping part 501 and the second shaping part 601 are irregularly shaped, and both the first shaping part 501 and the second shaping part 601 are made of soft material. The use of soft material ensures that even if the first shaping part 501 is irregularly shaped, it will not encounter much resistance when the lower end of the second outlet 6 descends to be flush with the first outlet 5.

[0028] Furthermore, a fixing ring 7 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the upper end of the second discharge port 6. One side of the fixing ring 7 extends outward to form a connecting rod 8. A connecting block 9 is connected to one side of the connecting rod 8. The lower surface of the connecting block 9 is detachably connected to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 10. The stationary end of the electric telescopic rod 10 is fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 2.

[0029] Furthermore, the extension and retraction direction of the electric telescopic rod 10 is parallel to the discharge direction of the second discharge port 6. A control button 11 for controlling the electric telescopic rod 10 is provided on one side of the housing 2. The control button 11 is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 10.

[0030] Specifically, when the control button 11 is pressed, the electric telescopic rod 10 retracts, causing the second outlet 6, which is fixedly connected to the collar on the connecting rod 8, to descend to a position flush with the first outlet 5. At this time, the ice cream squeezed out by pressing the operating handle takes the shape of the second shaping part 601. When the control button 11 is pressed again to reset it, the electric telescopic rod 10 extends, causing the second outlet 6, which is fixedly connected to the collar on the connecting rod 8, to rise. At this time, the ice cream squeezed out by pressing the operating handle will not be squeezed out immediately due to the irregular structure of the first outlet 5. Instead, it will first fill the space between the second outlet 6 and the first outlet 5 before being squeezed out by the first shaping part 501.

[0031] Furthermore, the inner cavity 3 is funnel-shaped on one side of the discharge channel 4.

[0032] Specifically, the funnel-shaped design prevents ice cream from piling up inside the inner cavity 3.

[0033] As an example, the housing 2 inside the discharging mechanism 1 is provided with a plurality of inner cavities 3. The lower surface of each inner cavity 3 is provided with a discharging channel 4. The discharging channel 4 is connected to a first discharging port 5 provided on the lower surface of the housing 2 through a second discharging port 6. The lower ends of the first discharging port 5 and the second discharging port 6 are respectively provided with a first shaping part 501 and a second shaping part 601. A control button 11 for controlling the electric telescopic rod 10 is provided on one side of the housing 2. The control button 11 is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 10. A control handle 12 for controlling the extrusion of ice cream is provided on the upper surface of the housing 2.

[0034] Specifically, the first shaping part 501 and the second shaping part 601 are of different shapes. At this time, pressing down the different control handles 12 can squeeze out ice cream with different patterns.

[0035] The working principle of the multi-form dispensing device for an ice cream machine provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0036] When in use, install the first outlet 5 and the second outlet 6, turn on the ice cream refrigeration machine to start making ice cream, then place the ice cream cone under the first outlet 5, press down the operating handle to squeeze out ice cream with patterns. If you need a different pattern, press the control button 11 on the side of the housing 2 to lower the second outlet 6 to be flush with the first outlet 5, and then you can squeeze out ice cream with different patterns.

[0037] This utility model provides a multi-form dispensing device for an ice cream machine. The device is equipped with a first dispensing port 5 and a second dispensing port 6. The second dispensing port 6 is controlled to move up and down by an electric telescopic rod 10. This allows the same dispensing channel 4 to produce two different shapes of ice cream without disassembling and changing the dispensing port. This is convenient for users and reduces the risk of bacteria, dust and other contaminants entering the dispensing port and contaminating the ice cream.
