Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to a condensation component and frozen food manufacturing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] As a frozen food manufacturing equipment, the slush machine is widely used in dessert shops, fast food chains, coffee shops and home consumption scenarios. The slush machine stirs and outputs pre-cooled raw materials at low temperature to make ice cream or sorbet products with a soft texture and smooth taste.

[0003] The refrigeration section of the snow melting machine uses a traditional air conditioning system, which includes a compressor, condenser, throttling element, and evaporator connected in sequence. The condenser typically includes heat exchange fins and a fan spaced apart on a support. The casing of the snow melting machine has an air inlet and an air outlet connected to the input and output ends of the fan, respectively. Driven by the fan, external gas enters through the air inlet of the casing, is heated by the heat exchange fins, and then exits through the air outlet. During this process, the airflow is not sufficiently constrained, resulting in weak kinetic energy when the airflow is discharged. This can easily lead to air leakage and turbulence between the output end of the fan and the air outlet of the casing, thus affecting the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser and consequently the efficiency of making frozen food.

[0007] When installing the condensing assembly with the above structure, the mounting bracket is fixed and the end face of the frame abuts against the outer periphery of the equipment shell at the air outlet. At this time, the fan drives the external gas through the air inlet and heat exchanger and then discharges it from the air outlet. The airflow discharged from the internal channel of the flow channel frame will not run around randomly, preventing air leakage and turbulence. Moreover, the flow rate of the airflow driven by the condensing assembly is stable and the transmission is orderly, which is conducive to improving heat exchange efficiency.

[0008] In some embodiments of this utility model, the inner peripheral wall of the flow channel frame is formed with a centrally through partition frame, and the portions of the internal channels of the flow channel frame located on both sides of the partition frame respectively constitute the first air duct cavity and the second air duct cavity. The heat exchanger and the fan are respectively installed on both sides of the partition frame.

[0009] In some embodiments of this utility model, the cross-section of the inner periphery of the flow channel frame is rectangular, and the partition frame includes four mounting plates coplanarly formed at the four corners of the flow channel frame. Two of the mounting plates located on the diagonal have positioning pins on their surfaces facing the fan, and the other two mounting plates have threaded sleeves protruding from their surfaces away from the fan. The corners of the fan have positioning through holes that mate with the positioning pins and mounting through holes that mate with the threaded sleeves.

[0010] In some embodiments of this utility model, the end of the threaded sleeve abuts against the side of the heat exchange fin assembly to create a predetermined distance between the heat exchange fin assembly and the fan.

[0011] In some embodiments of this utility model, the heat exchange fin assembly includes multiple first fins arranged at intervals along the vertical direction. The heat exchanger also includes a heat exchange tube that is serpentine along the vertical direction to pass through all the first fins. The heat exchange tube is provided with a second fin located above all the first fins and a third fin located below all the first fins. The threaded sleeve is located between the second fins and the third fins. The second fins and the third fins extend close to the mounting plate to prevent airflow from escaping upwards or downwards.

[0012] In some embodiments of this utility model, the two ends of the first fin extend to be close to or abut against the two opposite sidewalls of the first air duct cavity, and the portion of the heat exchange tube extending out of the first fin is located outside the internal channel of the flow channel frame.

[0030] See Figures 1 to 5 A condensing assembly according to the present invention includes: a mounting bracket 100, wherein the mounting bracket 100 is provided with a flow channel frame 110 having two through ends, wherein a first air duct cavity 111 and a second air duct cavity 112 are respectively provided at both ends of the internal channel of the flow channel frame 110, wherein a heat exchanger 200 is provided in the first air duct cavity 111, wherein the heat exchanger 200 includes a heat exchange fin assembly 210 completely housed within the first air duct cavity 111, wherein a fan 300 is provided in the second air duct cavity 112, wherein the flow channel frame 110 forms a surrounding frame portion 120 protruding from the side of the fan 300 at the opening edge of the second air duct cavity 112, wherein the end face of the surrounding frame portion 120 is flat.

[0031] When installing the condensing assembly with the above structure, the mounting bracket 100 is fixed, and the end face of the frame portion 120 abuts against the outer periphery of the housing 400 of the equipment located at the air outlet 420. At this time, the fan 300 drives the external gas through the air inlet 410 and the heat exchanger 200 and then discharges it from the air outlet 420. The airflow discharged from the internal channel of the flow channel frame 110 will not run around randomly, preventing air leakage and turbulence. Moreover, the flow rate of the airflow driven by the condensing assembly is stable and the transmission is orderly, which is conducive to improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0032] See Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments of this utility model, the inner peripheral wall of the flow channel frame 110 is formed with a centrally through partition frame 130. The portions of the internal channels of the flow channel frame 110 located on both sides of the partition frame 130 respectively constitute the first air duct cavity 111 and the second air duct cavity 112. The heat exchanger 200 and the fan 300 are respectively installed on both sides of the partition frame 130. It can be understood that the partition frame 130 can limit the distance between the heat exchanger 200 and the fan 300, while maintaining the connection between the first air duct cavity 111 and the second air duct cavity 112, thereby increasing the working efficiency of the fan 300, reducing wind noise, and providing a larger and more stable airflow.

[0033] See Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments of this utility model, the cross-section of the inner periphery of the flow channel frame 110 is rectangular. The partition frame 130 includes four mounting plates coplanarly formed at the four corners of the flow channel frame 110. Two of the mounting plates located diagonally have positioning pins 131 on their surfaces facing the fan 300. The other two mounting plates have threaded sleeves 132 protruding from their surfaces away from the fan 300. The corners of the fan 300 have positioning through holes 310 that mate with the positioning pins 131 and mounting through holes 320 that mate with the threaded sleeves 132. It can be understood that when assembling the fan 300, the two positioning through holes 310 on the fan 300 are aligned with the two positioning pins 131 and inserted. Then, two fastening screws are threaded through the mounting through holes 320 and connected to the threaded sleeves 132, thus quickly and easily installing and fixing the fan 300. Moreover, since the two positioning holes 310 and the two mounting holes 320 are diagonally distributed, the fan 300 is prevented from being loosened on one side.

[0034] See Figure 2 and Figure 5 In some embodiments of this utility model, the end of the threaded sleeve 132 abuts against the side of the heat exchange fin assembly 210 to create a predetermined distance between the heat exchange fin assembly 210 and the fan 300. It is understood that the partition frame 130 is relatively thin. In this case, the distance between the heat exchanger 200 and the fan 300 is limited. By using the end of the threaded sleeve 132 abutting against the side of the heat exchange fin assembly 210, the distance between the heat exchange fin assembly 210 and the fan 300 can be appropriately increased according to usage needs to obtain a larger and more stable airflow.

[0035] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments of this utility model, the heat exchange fin assembly 210 includes multiple first fins 211 arranged at intervals along the vertical direction. The heat exchanger 200 also includes a heat exchange tube 220 that is serpentinely bent along the vertical direction to pass through all the first fins 211. The heat exchange tube 220 is provided with a second fin 212 located above all the first fins 211 and a third fin 213 located below all the first fins 211. The threaded sleeve 132 is located between the second fin 212 and the third fin 213. The second fin 212 and the third fin 213 extend close to the mounting plate to prevent airflow from escaping upward or downward. Understandably, the end of the threaded sleeve 132 abuts against the side wall of the first fin 211 to create a certain distance between the first fin 211 and the partition frame 130. At this time, the airflow may escape outward from the gap between the first fin 211 and the partition frame 130. By extending the second fin 212 and the third fin 213 close to the mounting plate, the gaps at the upper and lower ends of all the first fins 211 can be eliminated, allowing the gas to travel in the direction of the airflow driven by the fan 300.

[0036] See Figure 2 In some embodiments of this utility model, in order to further prevent gas from merging from the two ends of the first fin 211 with the gap between the flow channel frame 110 to reduce turbulence, the two ends of the first fin 211 extend to be close to or abut against the two opposite side walls of the first air duct cavity 111, and the portion of the heat exchange tube 220 extending out of the first fin 211 is located outside the internal channel of the flow channel frame 110.

[0037] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting plate is generally triangular in shape, and has a concave arc surface facing the center of the flow channel frame 110. All of the concave arc surfaces and the inner peripheral wall of the flow channel frame 110 form a fluid channel, and the axial projection of the fan 300's duct is entirely within the axial projection of the fluid channel. It can be understood that the shape of the mounting plate minimizes the space occupied by the mounting plate within the internal channel of the flow channel frame 110. Since the axial projection of the fan 300's duct is entirely within the axial projection of the fluid channel, the airflow driven by the fan 300 will not be obstructed during its movement, and its direction of travel will not be interfered with, thus ensuring heat exchange efficiency.

[0038] See Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments of this utility model, the bottom of the mounting bracket 100 is provided with four bolt sleeves 140 located at the four corners of a rectangle on the outside of the flow channel frame 110. Correspondingly, the equipment is provided with threaded sleeves that correspond one-to-one with each bolt sleeve 140. Four fastening screws pass through the corresponding bolt sleeves 140 and are tightened into the threaded sleeves. Of course, in other embodiments, the mounting bracket 100 can also be connected by a snap-fit ​​connection.

[0039] See Figure 3 This utility model also discloses a frozen food manufacturing device, including a housing 400. The housing 400 is provided with an air inlet 410 and an air outlet 420. A condensation component of any of the above-mentioned technical solutions is provided inside the housing 400. The end face of the frame portion 120 abuts against the housing 400 at a position located on the outer periphery of the air outlet 420. When the airflow is driven out from the internal channel of the flow channel frame 110, the frozen food manufacturing device will not cause erratic flow, preventing air leakage and turbulence. The airflow is stable and orderly, which helps to improve the efficiency of the frozen food manufacturing device in making frozen foods.

[0040] See Figure 3 In some embodiments of this utility model, the housing 400 has a horizontally extending support plate 430 inside, the mounting bracket 100 is mounted on the support plate 430, the heat exchanger 200 includes a heat exchange tube 220 passing through the heat exchange fin assembly 210, the support plate 430 has a support portion 440 for lifting the heat exchange fin assembly 210 upwards, and the support plate 430 has a receiving groove 450 for accommodating the portion of the heat exchange tube 220 extending downwards from the heat exchange fin assembly 210. Specifically, in this embodiment, the support portion 440 has an L-shaped limiting groove, one side of the lower end of the heat exchange fin assembly 210 abuts against the L-shaped limiting groove, and the mounting bracket 100 is fixedly connected to the support plate 430, improving the stability of the condensing assembly installed in the frozen food manufacturing equipment.

[0041] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
