Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice maker technology, and more specifically to an ultrasonic-assisted freezing ice maker. Background Technology

[0002] The core of an ice maker is based on a refrigerant compression cycle. Through the coordinated work of a series of components, water is converted into ice. The principle is as follows: The compressor starts, compressing the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. This high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas enters the condenser (air-cooled, water-cooled, or evaporative type), where it exchanges heat with the outside air or water, releasing heat and condensing into a high-pressure liquid. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows through the expansion valve (or throttling valve), where its pressure drops sharply, becoming a mixture of low-temperature, low-pressure liquid and vapor. This low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant enters the evaporator, absorbing heat from the water flowing across its surface, cooling it until it solidifies into ice. The refrigerant itself absorbs heat and evaporates back into a low-temperature, low-pressure gas, which is then drawn back into the compressor, and the cycle repeats. The ice maker continuously makes ice through this refrigeration cycle of compression, condensation, throttling, and evaporation.

[0003] As shown in the prior art published in CN215412644U, although this prior art involves rotating the hollow plate clockwise using a fixed frame to tilt it, and then holding the operating frame and applying upward force, causing the spring to contract, the operating frame moves upward, driving the top plate and top column upward simultaneously until the ice particles in the ice-forming hole are ejected, and then the worker releases their hand from the operating frame, the spring immediately extends, and the operating frame moves downward, allowing the top plate and top column to return to their original positions. This makes it more convenient and faster for workers to remove ice, and the prepared ice particles are of uniform size. However, this prior art can only eject the ice blocks, loosening them so they don't freeze and stick together. Subsequent ice blocks will still fall into the ice-forming hole, requiring workers to remove them one by one, thus affecting the efficiency and convenience of ice removal. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the aforementioned deficiencies in the prior art, this utility model provides an ultrasonic-assisted freezing ice maker. By operating the handle to press down the support plate, the support plate rotates the counterweight plate through a lever principle. The counterweight plate lifts the adjusting plate to push the ice blocks out of the ice tank, preventing the ice blocks from freezing and sticking. Then, by operating the handle to move the scraper, the scraper can collect and process the pushed-out ice blocks, improving the convenience and efficiency of ice processing, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an ultrasonic-assisted freezing ice maker, comprising a cabinet for freezing ice and a cover plate rotatably connected to the top of the cabinet, wherein an ice-making plate is installed inside the cabinet, and the top of the ice-making plate is provided with multiple spaced ice slots, and the cabinet is provided with auxiliary components for convenient ice removal. The auxiliary component includes an adjustment plate located at the bottom of the ice-making plate. Multiple adjustment columns are installed on the top of the adjustment plate, with the tops of the adjustment columns extending into the ice trough. Two movable shafts are provided at the bottom of the adjustment plate and are movably connected to the cabinet body via bearings. Counterweight plates are fitted on the outside of the two movable shafts. Support plates are installed on the opposite sides of the two counterweight plates. The tops of the support plates contact the bottom of the adjustment plate, and the top of the ice-making plate is provided with an adjustment component for driving the counterweight plates.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the adjusting member includes a guide plate disposed on the top of the ice-making plate, the guide plate having a guide hole on its exterior, and a scraper being disposed at the bottom of one end of the guide hole. A handle extending to the top of the scraper is mounted on the top of the guide plate, and the bottom end of the handle is disposed inside the guide hole. Handles are installed on both the front and rear sides of the guide plate, and the bottom of the handles passes through the ice-making plate and the adjustment plate in sequence and contacts the top of the support plate.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, both the bottom cross-section of the handle and the cross-section of the guide hole are rectangular, and the outer side of the bottom of the handle contacts the inner wall of the guide hole.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, grooves are provided at the bottom of both ends of the ice-making plate, and an ultrasonic plate and an ultrasonic transducer are installed inside the grooves. An ultrasonic generator is installed on one side of the top of the cabinet.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, an insulation box is installed on the side of the cabinet away from the ultrasonic generator. The top of the insulation box is provided with a sealing plate, and a material hole is opened on the side of the insulation box that is close to the cabinet.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the cross-section of the support plate is inclined.

[0011] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: By operating the handle to press down the support plate, the support plate rotates the counterweight plate through the lever principle. The counterweight plate lifts the adjusting plate to push the ice blocks out of the ice tank, preventing the ice blocks from freezing and sticking. Then, by operating the handle, the scraper is moved to move, and the scraper is used to collect and process the pushed-out ice blocks, improving the convenience and efficiency of ice processing.

[0014] 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.

[0015] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-5 This utility model provides an ultrasonic-assisted freezing ice maker, including a cabinet 1 for freezing ice and a cover plate 2 rotatably connected to the top of the cabinet 1. An ice-making plate 3 is installed inside the cabinet 1. The top of the ice-making plate 3 has multiple spaced ice slots 4, and the cabinet 1 has an auxiliary component for convenient ice removal. The auxiliary component includes an adjustment plate 5 at the bottom of the ice-making plate 3. The top of the adjustment plate 5 is equipped with multiple adjustment columns 6, the top of which extend into the ice slots 4. The bottom of the adjustment plate 5 has two movable shafts 7 movably connected to the cabinet 1 by bearings. A counterweight plate 8 is sleeved on the outside of each of the two movable shafts 7. A support plate 9 is installed on the side of the two counterweight plates 8 that is far apart. The top of the support plate 9 contacts the bottom of the adjustment plate 5, and the top of the ice-making plate 3 has an adjustment component for driving the counterweight plate 8.

[0016] The aforementioned cabinet 1 is used for freezing and ice making. To improve the ice-making effect, grooves 20 are provided at the bottom of both ends of the ice-making plate 3. An ultrasonic plate 14 and an ultrasonic transducer 15 are installed inside the grooves 20, and an ultrasonic generator 16 is installed on one side of the top of the cabinet 1. Through the cooperation of the ultrasonic plate 14, ultrasonic transducer 15 and ultrasonic generator 16, the uniform formation of ice crystals can be effectively promoted, thereby achieving a more uniform ice-making effect. The core lies in utilizing the principles of "ultrasonic cavitation effect" and "ultrasonic crystallization".

[0017] After ice making is complete, staff need to use an auxiliary tool to remove the ice from the ice-making plate 3. An adjustable tool further enhances the ease of operation of this tool. The adjustable tool includes a guide plate 10 located at the top of the ice-making plate 3. The guide plate 10 has a guide hole 11 on its exterior, and a scraper 12 is located at the bottom of one end of the guide hole 11. A handle 13 extending to the top of the scraper 12 is mounted on the top of the guide plate 10, with the bottom end of the handle 13 located inside the guide hole 11. Handles 21 are mounted on both the front and rear sides of the guide plate 10. The bottom end of the handle 21 passes through the ice-making plate 3 and the adjusting plate 5, contacting the top of the support plate 9. This allows for one-handed pressing of the handle 21 to move it down, which in turn presses down on the support plate 9. Because the cross section of the support plate 9 is inclined, the support plate 9 can rotate the counterweight plate 8 through the lever principle, and the counterweight plate 8 will lift the adjustment plate 5. The adjustment column 6 on the adjustment plate 5 will simultaneously push out the ice blocks in the ice tank 4. Then, the other hand operates the handle 13 to drive the scraper 12 to move, and the scraper 12 will be used to collect and process the pushed-out ice blocks, thus improving the convenience of ice processing.

[0018] To prevent the scraper 12 from tilting during relocation, the handle 13 needs to be limited. Therefore, the bottom cross-section of the handle 13 and the cross-section of the guide hole 11 are both rectangular, and the outer bottom of the handle 13 contacts the inner wall of the guide hole 11. In this way, the handle 13 can be limited by the guide hole 11, ensuring the stability of the handle 13 when relocating the scraper 12 and preventing the scraper 12 from tilting during relocation.

[0019] To facilitate the collection of the extracted ice, an insulated box 17 is installed on the side of the cabinet 1 away from the ultrasonic generator 16. The top of the insulated box 17 is equipped with a sealing plate 18, and each side of the insulated box 17 adjacent to the cabinet 1 has a feeding hole 19. This allows the scraper 12 to push the ice through the feeding hole 19 into the insulated box 17, enabling collection and storage of the ice and improving the convenience of ice storage. Simultaneously, the sealing plate 18 seals and closes the insulated box 17, ensuring its insulation effect.

[0020] Finally: The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
