[0002] The refrigeration module of a continuous ice maker disclosed in CN219810081U includes an ice-making mold and a condensing structure connected to the refrigeration mechanism integrally formed with the ice-making mold. The condensing structure replaces the condensing pipe welded to the working surface of the ice-making mold in the prior art by adopting a condensing chamber structure.
[0003] It not only simplifies the structure of the entire refrigeration module and effectively solves the problem of exposed condenser tubes being easily damaged during assembly or transportation, but also eliminates the problem of solder joints coming loose, effectively extending the service life of the ice maker. Furthermore, it reduces material and manufacturing costs and enhances market competitiveness.
[0004] However, when using the cooling module, a power connection is required. When using a power cord to connect it, the power cord is prone to breaking due to being pulled, causing the cooling module to become unusable. This solution is not effective in positioning the power cord of the cooling module. Utility Model Content

[0007] The mounting assembly includes an arc-shaped plate fixedly installed inside the guide tube. A threaded groove is formed in the middle of the surface of the guide tube. A threaded rod is threadedly connected inside the threaded groove. One end of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to a clamping plate.
[0008] In one specific embodiment, positioning grooves are provided at the four corners of the mounting plate surface, and positioning bolts for installation are provided inside the positioning grooves.
[0009] In one specific embodiment, a support plate is fixedly installed at each of the four corners of the positioning block surface, and the bottom of the support plate is fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the module.
[0010] In one specific embodiment, guide blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the back of the heat sink. The size of the guide blocks is adapted to the size of the guide groove, and the guide blocks slide inside the guide groove.
[0011] In one specific embodiment, a limiting hose is fixedly installed at one end of the guide tube, and a power cord is provided inside the limiting hose.
[0012] In one specific embodiment, a snap-fit plate is fixedly installed at each of the four corners inside the limiting frame, and the snap-fit plate snaps into the four corners of the module surface.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a refrigeration module for a continuous ice maker, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] In the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, the module, positioning block, guide tube and installation component are used in combination. During use, the module is snapped into the inside of the limiting frame, and then the power cord is positioned by the installation component inside the guide tube, which reduces the occurrence of power cord breakage due to pulling.
