[0033] This utility model provides an ice cream machine, including an ice-breaking device 11 and a cup body 12 detachably connected to the bottom of the ice-breaking device 11 for holding ice cream. The ice-breaking device 11 includes a first housing 112, a stirring assembly 113 located inside the first housing 112, and a main unit 111 detachably connected to the stirring assembly 113. The main unit 111 is provided with a motor 1115 and a first sensing assembly. The first housing 112 is provided with a first through hole and a plurality of second sensing assemblies 116 located around the first through hole. The first through hole is provided along the height direction of the first housing 112, and the inner wall of the first through hole is provided with a thread 1124 provided along the height direction of the first through hole. The stirring assembly 113 includes a screw. 1131, a rotating shaft 1132 with one end fixed to the screw 1131 and the other end extending to the bottom of the first housing 112, and a cutter 1133 mounted on the rotating shaft 1132; a motor 1115 connected to the rotating shaft 1132 to drive the screw 1131 to move up and down on the thread 1124, so that the cutter 1133 rotates and moves up and down inside the cup body 12. The cup body 12 is used to hold frozen ice cream, and the ice-breaking device 11 is used to crush the frozen ice cream inside the cup body 12 to make the ice cream into a smooth ice cream. When stirring the frozen ice cream, first, the cup body 12 is installed at the bottom of the first housing 112, and then the main unit 111 is installed on the stirring assembly 113. When the first sensing component of the machine 111 senses the second sensing component 116 inside the housing, the main unit 111 can be started after being installed on the stirring assembly 113. The motor 1115 is connected to the rotating shaft 1132 and drives the rotating shaft 1132 to rotate. Since the rotating shaft 1132 is fixed on the screw 1131, when the rotating shaft 1132 rotates, it drives the screw 1131 to rotate on the thread 1124. The screw 1131 moves downwards from the first housing 112 by rotating on the thread 1124. When the screw 1131 moves downwards, it drives the rotating shaft 1132 to move downwards. The rotating shaft 1132 drives the blade 1133 to rotate and move downwards to stir the frozen ice cream in the cup 12. The first sensing component senses the main unit. When the main unit 111 descends to the set position on the housing, the motor 1115 rotates in the opposite direction and drives the rotating shaft 1132 to reverse, so that the rotating shaft 1132 drives the screw to rotate in the opposite direction. When the screw 1131 rotates in the opposite direction, it moves towards the top of the first housing 112. When the screw 1131 moves, it drives the rotating shaft 1132 to move. The rotating shaft 1132 drives the blade 1133 away from the bottom of the cup body 12. When the sensing component senses that the main unit 111 has moved to the set position, the main unit 111 stops moving, thereby completing the stirring of the ice cream. The above structure is simple. One motor 1115 can drive the stirring component 113 to rotate and lift, which effectively reduces the size of the ice cream machine and makes it easy to carry when going out.

[0034] The first housing 112 is also uniformly provided with a plurality of first vertical grooves 1125 extending along the height direction of the first housing 112, and the first vertical grooves 1125 are located outside the first through hole; the second sensing component 116 includes a first magnet 1161 located at the bottom of the first vertical groove 1125, an extension rod 1162 located above the first magnet 1161, and a second magnet 1163 located above the extension rod 1162. The first sensing component includes a first sensor and a second sensor located inside the main unit 111. The distance between the first sensor and the second sensor is equal to the distance between the first magnet 1161 and the second magnet 1163. The first vertical groove 1125 The extension rod 1162 is used to install the second sensing component 116 and to widen the distance between the first magnet 1161 and the second magnet 1163, so that the first sensing component of the main unit 111 can sense the second sensing component 116. When the main unit 111 is installed on the first housing 112, the main unit 111 can be started after the first sensor of the main unit 111 senses the second magnet 1163. During the descent of the main unit 111, when the first sensor of the main unit 111 senses the first magnet 1161 and the second sensor senses the second magnet 1163, the motor 1115 stops rotating and starts to reverse, thereby moving the blade 1133 away from the bottom of the cup body 12.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is an exploded view of the main unit of the ice cream machine of this utility model. The stirring assembly 113 is also provided with a reducer 115, which is detachably connected to the main unit 111. A first magnetic element is provided at one end of the main unit 111 near the reducer 115, and a second magnetic element is provided at one end of the reducer 115 near the main unit 111, which is attracted to the first magnetic element. The reducer 115 is used to reduce the speed of the motor 1115 to prevent the screw 1131 and the blade 1133 from rotating too fast. The reducer 115 is detachably connected to the main unit 111 by magnets, which makes it easier to reduce the size of the main unit 111 and carry it when going out.

[0036] Multiple protruding limiting plates 1151 are evenly arranged around the periphery of the reducer 115; multiple second vertical grooves 1126 matching the limiting plates 1151 are provided on the inner wall of the first through hole. The second vertical grooves 1126 are arranged along the height direction of the first through hole and pass through the thread 1124. When the reducer 115 is installed in the first housing 112, the limiting plate 1151 is located in the second vertical groove 1126. The second vertical groove 1126 is used to limit the limiting plate 1151. When the host 111 drives the reducer 115 to rotate, the reducer 115 drives the rotating shaft 1132 to rotate. The rotating shaft 1132 drives the screw 1131 to rotate. When the screw 1131 rotates, the limiting plate 1151 is used to prevent the reducer 115 from rotating with the screw 1131, so that the reducer 115 and the host 111 can move vertically up and down on the first housing 112.

[0037] A second through hole is provided at the center of the screw 1131, and the rotating shaft 1132 is fixed in the second through hole. The second through hole is used to install the rotating shaft 1132. The rotating shaft 1132 is fixed in the second through hole of the screw 1131. When the rotating shaft 1132 rotates, it drives the screw 1131 to rotate.

[0038] The top of the first housing 112 is also provided with a limiting groove 1127 located on the periphery of the first through hole, and a first vertical groove 1125 is located in the limiting groove 1127; the first housing 112 is also provided with a cover plate 1123 installed in the limiting groove 1127. The cover plate 1123 is used to enclose the second sensing component 116 in the first vertical groove 1125 to prevent the second sensing component 116 from separating from the first vertical groove 1125. At the same time, the limiting groove 1127 is used to install the cover plate 1123 to prevent the height of the cover plate 1123 from being higher than the height of the first housing 112, so that the top of the first housing 112 has a more aesthetically pleasing shape.

[0039] The bottom of the first housing 112 is also provided with a lower cover 1121. The diameter of the lower cover 1121 is larger than the diameter of the first housing 112. The lower cover 1121 is used to close the cover body. At the same time, the lower cover 1121 is used to cover the blade 1133 to prevent the blade 1133 from being exposed. It also prevents the ice cream from splashing out when stirring the frozen ice cream.

[0040] The lower cover 1121 is also provided with a skirt 1122 on the side away from the first housing 112. The skirt 1122 is used to close the edge of the cup body 12 to further prevent ice cream from splashing out from the edge of the cup body 12 when stirring.

[0041] The main unit 111 includes a second housing 1112, a control board 1113 located inside the second housing 1112, a battery 1114 located on one side of the control board 1113, and a motor 1115 located below the battery 1114. The battery 1114 and the motor 1115 are both electrically connected to the control board 1113. The control board 1113 is used to control the motor 1115, and the battery 1114 is used to supply power to the control board 1113 and the motor 1115, so as to facilitate the control of the ice cream machine.

[0042] The top of the second housing 1112 is also provided with a control button 1111. The control button 1111 is electrically connected to the control board 1113. The control button 1111 is used to control the opening and closing of the main unit 111, making it convenient to operate and control the ice cream machine.

[0043] Working principle: When stirring the frozen ice cream inside the cup body 12, firstly, the cup body 12 is installed on the lower cover 1121, the reducer 115 is installed below the main unit 111, and the reducer 115 with the main unit 111 installed is inserted into the first housing 112. The limiting plate 1151 of the reducer 115 extends into the second vertical groove 1126. At the same time, the reducer 115 is connected to the rotating shaft 1132. After the reducer 115 is installed, the first sensor senses the second magnet 1163 inside the first housing 112 and starts the main unit 112. 11. Pressing the control button 1111 causes the motor 1115 to drive the reducer 115 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 1132 to rotate. Since the rotating shaft 1132 is fixed inside the screw 1131, its rotation causes the screw 1131 to rotate. The screw 1131 rotates, causing the thread 1124 inside the first housing 112 to rotate. The screw 1131 descends within the first housing 112 via the thread 1124. Due to the action of the limiting plate 1151, the second vertical groove 1126 limits the movement of the limiting plate 1151. When the reducer 115 drives the rotating shaft 1132 to rotate, the reducer 115 descends vertically within the first housing 112. Furthermore, as the rotating shaft 1132 descends, it drives the blade 1133 to rotate and descend, stirring the ice cream within the cup 12. When the first sensor of the main unit 111 senses the first magnet 1161 of the first housing 112 and the second sensor of the main unit 111 senses the second magnet 1163 of the first housing 112, the motor 1115 stops rotating and reverses, causing the screw 1131 to rotate in the opposite direction and drive... When the reducer 115 and the main unit 111 rise, the screw 1131 rises, driving the rotating shaft 1132 and the blade 1133 to rise, so that the blade 1133 moves away from the bottom of the cup body 12. When the first sensor of the main unit 111 senses the second magnet 1163 inside the first housing 112, the motor 1115 stops rotating, thus completing the stirring of the ice cream. The above structure is simple, and one motor 1115 can drive the stirring component 113 to rotate and rise and fall, effectively reducing the size of the ice cream machine and making it easy to carry when going out for fun.

[0044] In this preferred embodiment, when the ice cream machine is installed in the first housing and connected to the mixing assembly, the first sensing component of the main unit senses the second sensing component and turns on the main unit. The main unit starts and drives the rotating shaft of the mixing assembly to rotate. When the rotating shaft rotates, it drives the screw and blade to rotate. When the screw rotates, it descends or rises through the screw thread to stir the ice cream in the cup. The above structure is simple, and one motor can drive the mixing assembly to rotate and rise, which effectively reduces the size of the ice cream machine and makes it easy to carry when going out.

[0045] In summary, although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, the above preferred embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
