Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of snow melting machine technology, specifically to a snow melting machine evaporator that is easy to clean. Background Technology

[0002] A snow melting machine is a specialized device that uses mechanical cutting to process ice blocks into fine, snowflake-like ice chips. Its core function is to produce a high-quality ice base with a smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture, significantly superior to the coarse and hard texture of traditional crushed ice. This equipment is widely used in commercial settings such as beverage shops and restaurants to create premium shaved ice and creative ice desserts, effectively enhancing product value and the consumer experience. It is also suitable for home use, meeting users' needs for homemade healthy cold drinks and improving their quality of life. It is an important tool for upgrading ice products and creating diverse frozen treats.

[0003] In existing technologies, condensation of slush is generally achieved through an evaporator. For example, a stainless steel evaporator for a snow melting machine disclosed in CN119245246A includes an outer barrel filled with a refrigerant. The liquid is poured onto the outer surface of the outer barrel, condenses, and is scraped off by a scraper. It also includes an inner barrel, which is a cylindrical shell with openings at both ends and coaxial with the outer barrel. The first end is connected to the end of the outer barrel, and the second end has a folded edge, forming a sealed refrigeration chamber between the inner and outer barrels. The folded edge has a notch, and the refrigeration chamber has a liquid inlet groove communicating with the notch. The refrigerant enters the refrigeration chamber through the liquid inlet groove. The liquid inlet pipe extends into the liquid inlet groove through the notch.

[0004] However, temperature controllers in existing technologies are generally located outside the cylinder, which hinders daily cleaning, not only posing hygiene risks, but also causing frequent malfunctions due to susceptibility to water vapor corrosion and physical impact, resulting in low reliability. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model proposes an evaporator for a snow melting machine that is easy to clean.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: An easy-to-clean snow melting machine evaporator includes a cylinder, in which a mounting base for inserting a drive shaft is provided. The mounting base has a mounting groove, and a temperature controller is provided in the mounting groove, with the end of the temperature controller fitting against the inner wall of the cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, the end of the temperature controller forms an abutment plane, and the abutment plane is in contact with the inner wall of the cylinder. Through the above improvements, by using the abutment plane to contact the inner wall of the cylinder, not only is the installation stability of the temperature controller guaranteed, but the accuracy of temperature detection by the temperature controller can also be guaranteed.

[0008] Preferably, an elastic element is provided in the mounting groove. One end of the elastic element abuts against the mounting base, and the other end abuts against the temperature controller, so that the temperature controller always has a tendency to move towards the inner wall of the cylinder. Through the above improvements, the use of the elastic element to act on the temperature controller not only improves the convenience of temperature controller installation, but also ensures the reliability of temperature controller installation.

[0009] Preferably, the mounting base has a mounting protrusion, the mounting groove is formed on the mounting protrusion, the mounting protrusion is integrally formed on the mounting base, and the joint portion between the mounting base and the mounting protrusion has a reinforcing rib. Through the above improvements, the structural strength of the mounting protrusion is enhanced to ensure the reliability of the temperature controller installation.

[0010] Preferably, the temperature controller includes a sensor body and a sensing end formed on the sensor body. The elastic element is sleeved on the sensor body and abuts against the sensing end. Through the above improvements, the elastic element can limit the sensor body and abut against the sensing end, so that it abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder, ensuring the reliability and stability of the temperature controller when it abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder.

[0011] Preferably, the temperature controller is connected to a signal transmission line, and the mounting slot has an extension hole for the signal transmission line to extend out. With the above improvements, the signal transmission line can extend out of the mounting slot through the extension hole, further improving the convenience of installing the temperature controller.

[0012] Preferably, a sealing ring is inserted into the mounting base, and the two ends of the sealing ring form a first sealing protrusion. The first sealing protrusion abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder and the mounting base. Through the above improvement, the sealing performance between the cylinder and the mounting base is increased by using the sealing ring.

[0013] Preferably, the cylindrical body is provided with a fixed seat for connecting the mounting base. The mounting base has a plug groove for the fixed seat to be inserted into. A sealing gasket is provided in the plug groove. The two ends of the sealing gasket form second sealing protrusions. The second sealing protrusions abut against the fixed seat and the plug groove respectively. Through the above improvement, the sealing performance of the mounting base and the fixed seat at the connection point is increased by using the sealing gasket.

[0014] Preferably, a guide sealing sleeve is fitted on the fixed seat, the drive shaft is inserted into the guide sealing sleeve, and a sealing guide protrusion is formed on the guide sealing sleeve. The sealing guide protrusion abuts against the outer periphery of the drive shaft. Through the above improvements, the sealing guide protrusion abuts against the drive shaft to ensure the sealing between the guide sealing sleeve and the drive shaft.

[0015] Preferably, the guide sealing sleeve has a snap-fit ​​groove for snapping the fixing seat, and a third sealing protrusion is formed in the snap-fit ​​groove. The third sealing protrusion abuts against the fixing seat, and the bottom of the guide sealing sleeve also has a third sealing protrusion that abuts against the mounting seat. Through the above improvements, the sealing performance of the connection between the fixing seat and the guide sealing sleeve is increased, and the sealing performance between the guide sealing sleeve and the mounting seat is also increased.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects: By setting an installation slot on the mounting base and installing a temperature controller inside the installation slot, the temperature controller is used to detect and control the temperature by contacting the inner wall of the cylinder. Compared with the conventional method, the evaporator places the temperature controller outside the cylinder, which can effectively avoid cleaning dead corners and make daily cleaning easier. At the same time, it reduces the risk of temperature controller failure due to water vapor corrosion and physical impact. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The temperature controller 4 is placed against the inner wall of the cylinder 1 to detect and control the temperature. Compared with the conventional method, the evaporator places the temperature controller 4 outside the cylinder 1, which can effectively avoid cleaning dead corners and make daily cleaning easier. At the same time, it reduces the risk of the temperature controller 4 malfunctioning due to water vapor corrosion and physical impact.

[0022] like Figure 1-5 As shown, as a further explanation of the installation method of temperature controller 4, the end of temperature controller 4 forms an abutment plane 1.1, and the abutment plane 1.1 is in contact with the inner wall of cylinder 1. By using the abutment plane 1.1 to be in contact with the inner wall of cylinder 1, not only is the installation stability of temperature controller 4 guaranteed, but the accuracy of temperature detection by temperature controller 4 can also be guaranteed.

[0023] Specifically, an elastic element 1.2 is provided in the mounting groove 3. One end of the elastic element 1.2 abuts against the mounting base 2, and the other end abuts against the temperature controller 4, so that the temperature controller 4 always has a tendency to move towards the inner wall of the cylinder 1. The elastic element 1.2 acts on the temperature controller 4, which not only improves the convenience of the installation of the temperature controller 4, but also ensures the reliability of the installation of the temperature controller 4.

[0024] Furthermore, the temperature controller 4 includes a sensor body 2.1 and a sensing end 2.2 formed on the sensor body 2.1. An elastic element 1.2 is sleeved on the sensor body 2.1 and abuts against the sensing end 2.2. The elastic element 1.2 can limit the sensor body 2.1 and abut against the sensing end 2.2, so that it abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder 1, ensuring the reliability and stability of the temperature controller 4 when it abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder 1.

[0025] Preferably, the temperature controller 4 is connected to a signal transmission line 2.3, and the mounting slot 3 is provided with an extension hole 2.4 for the signal transmission line 2.3 to extend out of the mounting slot 3 through the extension hole 2.4, which further improves the convenience of installing the temperature controller 4.

[0027] like Figure 5 As shown, as a further explanation of the embodiment of sealing connection between mounting base 2 and cylinder 1, a sealing ring 3.1 is inserted on mounting base 2. The sealing ring has a first sealing protrusion 3.2 at both ends. The first sealing protrusion 3.2 abuts against the inner wall of cylinder 1 and mounting base 2. The sealing ring 3.1 increases the sealing between cylinder 1 and mounting base 2.

[0028] Furthermore, a fixed seat 3.3 for connecting the mounting base 2 is inserted into the cylinder 1. The mounting base 2 has a insertion groove 3.4 for the fixed seat 3.3 to be inserted. A sealing gasket 3.5 is provided in the insertion groove 3.4. The two ends of the sealing gasket 3.5 form second sealing protrusions 3.6. The second sealing protrusions 3.6 abut against the fixed seat 3.3 and the insertion groove 3.4 respectively. The sealing gasket 3.5 increases the sealing performance of the mounting base 2 and the fixed seat 3.3 at the connection point.

[0029] A guide sealing sleeve 4.1 is fitted onto the fixed base 3.3, and the drive shaft 5 is inserted into the guide sealing sleeve 4.1. The guide sealing sleeve 4.1 has a sealing guide protrusion 4.2, which abuts against the outer periphery of the drive shaft 5. The sealing guide protrusion 4.2 abuts against the drive shaft 5 to ensure the sealing between the guide sealing sleeve 4.1 and the drive shaft 5.

[0030] In addition, the guide sealing sleeve 4.1 forms a snap-fit ​​groove 4.3 for snapping the fixing seat 3.3. A third sealing protrusion 4.4 is formed in the snap-fit ​​groove 4.3. The third sealing protrusion 4.4 abuts against the fixing seat 3.3. The bottom of the guide sealing sleeve 4.1 also forms a third sealing protrusion 4.4, which abuts against the mounting seat 2. This increases the sealing performance of the connection between the fixing seat 3.3 and the guide sealing sleeve 4.1, and also increases the sealing performance between the guide sealing sleeve 4.1 and the mounting seat 2.

[0031] Preferably, a sealing ring 4.5 is also provided on the fixed base 3.3, which abuts against the outer wall of the drive shaft 5 to improve the sealing performance.
