Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shaved ice machines, specifically to a blade adjustment structure for a shaved ice machine. Background Technology

[0002] Existing shaved ice machines typically have a scraping device on the side of the evaporator to remove ice from its surface. This scraping device is used to remove the ice layer from the evaporator surface and guide the ice out. Traditional scraping devices usually consist of a blade holder and blades. The blade holder holds the blades within the outer casing of the shaved ice machine, while the blades, positioned on the side of the evaporator surface, scrape away the ice layer along their upper edge. The scraped ice falls onto the blade surface and is guided by the blades into the filling container.

[0003] The distance between the blades and the evaporator surface varies, resulting in different shapes of the scraped ice and consequently, different textures. Current shaved ice machines require users to manually adjust the blade-evaporator distance. Since users lack the specialized equipment for this adjustment, they must manually move the blades. However, manual adjustment can lead to various problems, such as the blades not being parallel to the evaporator surface after being fixed, or the distance being too small or too large. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a blade adjustment structure for a shaved ice machine that is simple in structure and easy to operate.

[0005] The above objectives are achieved in this way.

[0006] A blade adjustment structure for a shaved ice machine includes a blade assembly, a top cover, a middle mounting bracket, and an evaporator mounted on the middle mounting bracket. The top cover covers the middle mounting bracket. The blade assembly is located on the side of the evaporator, with the blade edge parallel to the evaporator surface. An adjustment device is provided on the top cover. The adjustment device includes a control screw and a lever assembly. The control screw abuts against the lever assembly. The lever assembly is located below the blade assembly and abuts against the blade assembly when the lever assembly moves. Tightening or loosening the control screw causes the lever assembly to change the distance between the blade edge and the evaporator surface.

[0007] The objective of this utility model can also be optimized by the following technical measures.

[0008] Preferably, the lever assembly includes an adjusting link and a connecting block. The adjusting link has a crossbar and a pivot. The pivot is located at the left and right ends of the crossbar. The crossbar passes through one end of the connecting block. The pivot rotates back from the position where the crossbar passes through and re-enters the connecting block. The other end of the connecting block has a pressure-bearing part for the control screw to act on.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper cover is provided with an installation cavity, the left and right ends of the lever assembly and the connecting block are all disposed in the installation cavity, the installation cavity is provided with a rotating support seat, and the rotating shaft is rotatably disposed on the rotating support seat.

[0010] Furthermore, the mounting cavity is provided with a cover plate, and a control screw is inserted through the cover plate. The control screw abuts against the pressure receiving part. Tightening the control screw causes the control screw to extend downward to press down the pressure receiving part, while the connecting part pushes the crossbar upward.

[0011] Preferably, the middle mounting bracket is provided with a vertically arranged hanging part, which is located on the side of the evaporator, and the blade assembly is hung on the hanging part.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model sets up a blade adjustment structure. Since the crossbar is parallel to the evaporator surface, when the crossbar lifts the blade, the blade will still be parallel to the evaporator surface, eliminating the error caused by the user's self-adjustment. In addition, the whole system adopts the most basic "seesaw" structure based on the lever principle, with fewer parts and high durability. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] A blade adjustment structure for a shaved ice machine includes a blade assembly 3, an upper cover 1, a middle mounting bracket 4, and an evaporator 2 mounted on the middle mounting bracket 4. The upper cover 1 covers the middle mounting bracket 4. The middle mounting bracket 4 has a vertically arranged hanging part 41, which is located on the side of the evaporator 2. The blade assembly 3 is hung on the hanging part 41. In this embodiment, the hanging part 41 is a vertically arranged metal sheet. The cutting edge of the blade assembly 3 is located on the side of the evaporator 2, and the cutting edge is parallel to all generatrices on the surface of the evaporator 2.

[0024] The upper cover 1 is equipped with an adjustment device, which includes a control screw 6 and a lever assembly 5. The lever assembly 5 includes an adjustment link and a connecting block 53. The adjustment link has a crossbar 51 and a rotating shaft 52. The rotating shaft 52 is located at both ends of the crossbar 51. The crossbar 51 passes through one end of the connecting block 53. The rotating shaft 52 rotates back from the position where the crossbar 51 passes through and re-enters the connecting block 53. The lever assembly 5 is located below the blade assembly 3. Below the blade assembly 3 is a stop 31 for the lever assembly 5 to abut. The other end of the connecting block 53 has a pressure-bearing part 531 for the control screw 6 to act upon. When the control screw 6 is tightened, the control screw 6 presses downward against the pressure-bearing part 531 of the lever assembly 5, causing the crossbar 51 of the lever assembly 5 to push the blade assembly 3 upward.

[0025] When the blade assembly 3 is lifted, the control screw 6 is loosened, and the force on the pressure part 531 is reduced. At this time, the weight of the blade assembly 3 is greater than the force of the crossbar 51 lifting the blade assembly 3, and the blade assembly 3 descends, increasing the distance between it and the surface of the evaporator 2.

[0026] In this embodiment, when the blade assembly 3 is hung on the hanging part 41, the distance between the blade part and the surface of the evaporator 2 is at its maximum.

[0027] The upper cover 1 is provided with an installation cavity 8. The left and right ends of the lever assembly 5 and the connecting block 53 are all located in the installation cavity 8. The installation cavity 8 is provided with a rotating support seat 81. The connecting block 53 is rotatably mounted on the rotating support seat 81 with the rotating shaft 52 as the axis.

[0028] In some embodiments, the crossbar 51 and the pivot 52 are separate components. The crossbar 51 passes through one end of the connecting block 53, and a pivot is provided between the two ends of the connecting block 53. The pivot is rotatably connected to the rotating support 81.

[0029] The mounting cavity 8 is provided with a cover plate 7, which has a through hole and a thread. The control screw 6 passes through the thread into the mounting cavity 8. The control screw 6 abuts against the pressure part 531. When the control screw 6 is tightened, the control screw 6 descends and presses down the pressure part 531. At the same time, the connecting block 53 pushes the crossbar 51 upward.

[0030] The above are preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the protection scope of this utility model.
