[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A smoothie maker includes a housing and an evaporator, a compressor, a condenser, a stirring unit, and a drive unit disposed within the housing. The stirring unit is rotatably disposed within the evaporator, and the drive unit is connected to the stirring unit and drives the stirring unit to rotate. The stirring unit includes a central column and two spirally rising blades. The two ends of the blades are respectively connected to the top and bottom of the central column, and a second connecting rod is disposed between the blades and the central column.

[0005] Preferably, the evaporator includes a shell, an evaporation tank, and an evaporation tube. The evaporation tank is disposed inside the shell, the evaporation tube is wound around the outer wall of the evaporation tank, and the stirring part is disposed inside the evaporation tank.

[0006] Preferably, a feed inlet is provided at the top of the outer shell, and a connecting pipe is provided between the feed inlet and the evaporation tank.

[0007] Preferably, the top of the housing is provided with a groove, and the inlet is located at the bottom of the groove.

[0008] Preferably, the groove portion is generally conical.

[0009] Preferably, the housing comprises a left housing and a right housing that are connected to each other.

[0010] Preferably, the left housing and the right housing are each provided with a crossbar, and the crossbar is connected to the outer shell.

[0011] Preferably, a water receiving tray is provided at the bottom front end of the outer casing.

[0012] The slush machine of this invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art: This invention relates to a smoothie maker that integrates an evaporator, compressor, condenser, stirring unit, and drive unit into a single housing. A rotatable stirring unit is located within the evaporator. The stirring unit employs a unique structure with a central column and double-helix blades, further supported by a second connecting rod. This design ensures greater stability of the blades during high-speed rotation, generating strong shearing force and uniform mixing to effectively break up ice crystals and prevent material splashing, resulting in a smoothie product with a delicate texture and uniform mixing.

[0013] Furthermore, the evaporator employs a design where evaporation tubes are wound around the outer wall of the evaporation tank and cleverly connected to the conical groove at the top of the outer shell and the feed inlet, forming a smooth feeding channel. This not only facilitates feeding but also prevents heat loss. The outer shell consists of left and right shells securely connected to the main shell via crossbars. This modular design ensures both the rigidity and sealing of the overall structure while facilitating equipment assembly and maintenance. In addition, a drip tray located at the bottom front of the outer shell effectively collects condensate or spilled liquid that may be generated during the manufacturing process, maintaining a clean and safe working environment.

[0014] In summary, the smoothie machine of this invention has the advantages of compact structure, stable operation, efficient stirring and easy cleaning. Its integrated design optimizes space utilization, enhances the synergistic effect of refrigeration and stirring, and its reliable structure ensures long-term durability, greatly improving user experience and product practicality.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method: The reference numerals in the accompanying drawings include: outer shell 1, evaporator 2, compressor 3, condenser 4, stirring unit 5, drive unit 6, central column 7, blade 8, second connecting rod 10, shell 11, evaporation tank 12, evaporation tube 13, feed inlet 14, connecting pipe 15, groove 16, left shell 17, right shell 18, crossbar 19, and water receiving tray 20.

[0017] As attached Figure 1-5 As shown in the figure, this embodiment illustrates a smoothie maker, mainly comprising a housing 1 and an evaporator 2, a compressor 3, a condenser 4, a stirring unit 5, and a drive unit 6 disposed within the housing 1. The stirring unit 5 is rotatably disposed inside the evaporator 2, and the drive unit 6 is connected to the stirring unit 5 and responsible for driving its rotation, thereby achieving integrated and simultaneous refrigeration and smoothie making. The stirring unit 5 is specifically configured with a central column 7 and two spirally rising blades 8, with the two ends of the blades 8 connected to the top and bottom of the central column 7, respectively, thus effectively shearing and lifting the material during rotation. To significantly enhance the structural rigidity and stability of this high-speed rotating component, a second connecting rod 10 is added between the blades 8 and the central column 7, further assisting in supporting and strengthening the entire stirring frame, enabling it to generate strong shearing force and uniform stirring effect on the material.

[0018] Specifically, regarding the refrigeration components, the evaporator 2 of the smoothie machine in this embodiment is composed of a shell 11, an evaporation tank 12, and evaporation tubes 13. The evaporation tank 12 is disposed inside the shell 11, and the evaporation tubes 13 are tightly wound and coiled onto the outer wall of the evaporation tank 12. This design greatly increases the heat exchange area and improves the refrigeration efficiency. The aforementioned stirring unit 5 is disposed inside this evaporation tank 12, enabling it to directly stir and freeze materials in a low-temperature environment.

[0019] To facilitate material feeding and create a smooth material flow path, a feed inlet 14 is specifically provided at the top of the outer shell 1. This feed inlet 14 is connected to the evaporation tank 12 below via a connecting pipe 15, ensuring that the material can accurately enter the working area. Furthermore, a recessed portion 16 is designed at the top of the evaporator 2 shell 11, and the feed inlet 14 is located at the bottom of this recessed portion 16. The recessed portion 16 is designed in a conical shape, which is very conducive to collecting and guiding materials, effectively preventing raw materials from spilling or accumulating at the inlet, ensuring the convenience and cleanliness of feeding.

[0020] The evaporator 2's housing 11 adopts a split structure, consisting of a left housing 17 and a right housing 18 connected to each other. To ensure that the evaporator 2 assembly can be securely installed inside the outer casing 1, crossbars 19 are respectively provided on the outside of the left housing 17 and the right housing 18. These crossbars 19 are directly connected to the main body of the smoothie machine's outer casing 1, providing reliable structural support and positioning.

[0021] Finally, considering the possibility of water vapor condensation or accidental liquid spillage during the smoothie making process, a drip tray 20 is specially installed at the bottom front of the outer casing 1. This component can effectively collect condensate and spilled liquid, keeping the environment around the machine dry and clean, thus improving product safety and user experience.
