Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of blender material boxes, and more specifically, to a knob locking mechanism for blender material boxes. Background Technology
[0002] A smoothie maker is an electrical appliance specifically designed for making smoothies, fruit smoothies, cocktail smoothies, and other cold drinks. It is widely used in homes, beverage shops, cafes, bars, and other establishments. Depending on their functions and uses, smoothie makers can be categorized into household, commercial, and professional types. The main working process is roughly as follows: Place the prepared ice cubes into the blending jar, then turn on the power to rotate the jar. The blades then chop the ice cubes, and finally, the smoothie is dispensed.
[0003] In existing technology, there is a locking barrel structure inside the slush machine. During use, the locking barrel is mainly controlled by an external locking handle. However, the existing locking structure has two problems: during the use of the slush machine, the locking structure may become unstable due to frequent machine vibration, or the operation of the locking handle may become more cumbersome in order to achieve an effective locking effect. Therefore, the existing locking mechanism has certain limitations. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a knob locking mechanism for a smoothie machine's feed box. This mechanism features a handle-type structure that makes the locking component more convenient to use. Furthermore, the use of a specially structured internal slot to work with the linkage rod achieves a more effective locking effect, balancing stability and convenience. The specially designed internal reinforcing rib structure effectively improves the strength of the entire locking component, preventing breakage during use and further enhancing the overall practicality of the device.
[0006] 2. Technical Solution

[0009] Furthermore, the linkage mechanism includes a linkage rod, and synchronous insertion rods are fixedly installed at both ends of the linkage rod.
[0010] Furthermore, the linkage rod is rotatably installed inside the slush machine housing, while the synchronizing rod is rotatably installed outside the slush machine housing.

[0015] 3. Beneficial effects
[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:
[0017] (1) This solution utilizes a locking mechanism in conjunction with a linkage mechanism to quickly control the unlocking operation inside the locking barrel, thereby quickly realizing the locking function of the slush machine box.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0028] Example 1:
[0029] Please see Figure 1-4A slush machine material box knob locking mechanism includes a slush machine box 1, a material discharge mechanism 2 is movably installed on the front of the slush machine box 1, a slide rail is fixedly installed on the top surface of the slush machine box 1, a baffle 3 is slidably installed inside the slide rail, a limit rod 101 and a rotating component 102 are fixedly installed on the sides of the slush machine box 1 respectively, a locking mechanism 4 is rotatably installed on the outer wall of the slush machine box 1, and a linkage mechanism 5 is detachably installed inside the locking mechanism 4;
[0030] It should be noted that the slush machine box 1 and the discharging mechanism 2 in this application are mature components in the prior art. The corresponding structure and function inside the slush machine box 1 are all within the scope of the prior art. This application mainly focuses on the improvement of the locking mechanism in the prior art. Therefore, the prior art will not be described in detail.
[0031] The linkage mechanism 5 includes a linkage rod 501, and synchronous insertion rods 502 are fixedly installed at both ends of the linkage rod 501. The linkage rod 501 is rotatably installed inside the slush machine box 1, and the synchronous insertion rods 502 are rotatably installed outside the slush machine box 1. The locking mechanism 4 includes a locking handle box 401. The locking handle box 401 has a slot 403 in the middle. There are two slots 403. The two slots 403 are engaged with buckles 405 inside. A cover plate 404 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the buckle 405. The cover plate 404 is engaged with the outer wall of the locking handle box 401. A collar 406 is fixedly installed in the middle of the locking handle box 401. The shape of the collar 406 is adapted to the shape of the synchronous insertion rod 502.
[0032] Specifically, the linkage rod 501 can rotate inside the slush machine box 1, thereby cooperating with the synchronous insertion rod 502 to achieve synchronous rotation control of the two locking mechanisms 4. At the same time, the outer end of the synchronous insertion rod 502 can be fixed to it by bolts passing through the collar 406, making the connection between the locking handle box 401 and the synchronous insertion rod 502 more secure, preventing slippage and detachment, and ensuring the stability of transmission. Meanwhile, the cover plate 404 and the buckle 405 can be used to quickly disassemble and assemble the outer wall of the locking handle box 401, which provides protection for the bolt connection and improves the overall aesthetics of the device.
[0033] A storage slot 402 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the locking handle box 401. A slide rail 407 is also fixedly installed on the inner wall of the locking handle box 401. Several reinforcing ribs 408 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the locking handle box 401. The shape of the slide rail 407 is adapted to the shape of the limiting rod 101. There are two locking mechanisms 4. The two locking mechanisms 4 are respectively rotatably installed on the left and right sides of the slush machine box 1.
[0034] Specifically, the shape of the slide rail 407 is adapted to the shape of the limit rod 101 to realize the overall rotation trajectory of the locking handle box 401, thereby effectively ensuring the control of its rotation process and preventing excessive rotation. Finally, multiple reinforcing ribs 408 are distributed in different areas inside the locking handle box 401, which can effectively ensure the overall structural stability of the locking handle box 401, prevent breakage caused by excessive local pressure during rotation, and improve the service life of the overall device.
[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During assembly, the collar 406 is first inserted into the outer wall of the synchronous plug rod 502. After the two are connected, the existing bolts are inserted from the outside of the locking handle box 401 and threadedly connected to the synchronous plug rod 502 to complete the overall connection and fixation of the locking handle box 401 and the linkage mechanism 5. Then, the buckle 405 is inserted into the inside of the slot 403 to complete the locking. The cover plate 404 covers the outer wall of the locking handle box 401. Finally, the user can directly rotate the locking handle box 401 by pulling the handle part of the locking handle box 401. The slide rail 407 slides on the end surface of the limit rod 101 to limit the rotation distance and complete the corresponding locking barrel unlocking switch operation state inside.
[0036] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model; however, the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and its improved concept, should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
