[0028] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0029] This embodiment provides an easy-to-assemble and disassemble ice scraping device, such as... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the device includes a support plate 1, a support gear 2, a scraper 4, and an evaporator 5. The cylindrical evaporator 5 is vertically fixed to the support plate 1. The scraper 4 is rotatably mounted on the outside of the evaporator 5. The annular support gear 2 is sleeved on the outside of the evaporator 5 and rotatably mounted on the support plate 1. The support gear 2 has a supporting part 21 that supports the scraper 4 and a pushing part 22 that pushes the scraper 4 to rotate together. The scraper 4 has a passive part 41 that cooperates with the pushing part 22. Under the action of external force, the scraper 4 can overcome the limitation of the supporting part 21 and be pulled away.
[0030] In use, the rotation of the support gear 2 drives the scraper 4 to rotate, scraping off the ice and shavings from the surface of the evaporator 5. When the scraper 4 needs to be removed for maintenance and cleaning, external force can be used to forcefully remove the scraper 4 by overcoming the restriction of the support part 21. During installation, it is only necessary to apply force to make the scraper 4 fit into the support part 21. Compared with the prior art, this technology can achieve both longitudinal support and separation of the scraper 4, and circumferential drive of the scraper 4.
[0031] Specifically, the scraper 4 includes a spiral blade 42 that fits the outer side of the evaporator 5 with clearance. The upper and lower ends of the spiral blade 42 are provided with an upper ring body 43 and a lower ring body 44, and the support part 21 supports the upper ring body 43. Specifically, the spiral blade 42 is provided with a reinforcing strip 45, and the reinforcing strip 45 is fixed to each spiral segment of the spiral blade 42.
[0032] In this embodiment, the support gear 2 has a downward-facing locking arm, which serves as the actuating part 22. The locking arm also has a protruding strip serving as the supporting part 21. The scraper 4 has a protruding plate serving as the passive part 41, and the protruding plate and the locking arm interfere with each other in the circumferential direction. When the support gear 2 rotates until the locking arm abuts against the protruding plate, it can drive the scraper 4 to rotate together.
[0033] Specifically, a reinforcing rib 23 is provided between the chuck arm and the support gear 2.
[0034] Specifically, multiple clamping arms are arranged circumferentially around the support gear 2, and similarly, multiple convex plates are arranged circumferentially around the upper ring body 43, so that the clamping arms and the passive part 41 can be engaged and rotate together when the support gear 2 rotates by a small angle.
[0035] Specifically, the support plate 1 is provided with multiple hook parts 11 around a circular track, and the annular support gear 2 is rotatably supported on the multiple hook parts 11.
[0036] Specifically, the hook part 11 and the support plate 1 are an integrated structure.
[0037] Specifically, the support plate 1 has a clearance hole 12 for the evaporator 5 to pass through, and the top of the evaporator 5 is provided with a flange 51, which is locked to the top of the support plate 1 by screws.
