[0045] Example 1

[0046] See Figures 1 to 9 The discharge structure of the smoothie machine according to Embodiment 1 of this utility model includes:

[0047] The material cylinder 01 has a connected stirring chamber 11 and a discharge chamber 12;

[0048] The discharge device 02 is detachably connected to the material cylinder 01, and includes a movable sealing component 3 located in the discharge chamber 12 and a control component 4 that drives the movable sealing component 3 to rise and fall. The movable sealing component 3 and the control component 4 are detachably connected.

[0049] Among them, the control component 4 is snapped into the material cylinder 01.

[0050] In this embodiment, the material cylinder 01 includes a cylinder body 1 and a cylinder cover 2. The cylinder body 1 has a connected stirring chamber 11 and a discharge chamber 12.

[0051] In this embodiment, the control component 4 includes a swing member 41, and the movable sealing component 3 includes a lifting member 31. The swing member 41 has an arc-shaped toothed portion 411, and the lifting member 31 has a strip-shaped toothed portion 311. The arc-shaped toothed portion 411 and the strip-shaped toothed portion 311 mesh with each other. In other embodiments, other swing-to-linear mechanisms may also be used.

[0052] In this embodiment, the swing axis of the swing member 41 is perpendicular to the horizontal axis of the material cylinder 01 for ease of operation.

[0053] In this embodiment, the control component 4 further includes a reset component 42 for resetting the swing component 41, so that the swing component 41 can be automatically reset, that is, the sealing component can be automatically reset. The reset component 42 is a torsion spring.

[0054] In this embodiment, the control component 4 also includes a cover 43 and a snap-fit ​​component that moves relative to the cover 43. A U-shaped frame 13 is integrally formed on the material cylinder 01, and a slot 131 is provided on the U-shaped frame 13. The snap-fit ​​component cooperates with the slot 131.

[0055] In this embodiment, a snap-fit ​​piece 14 is formed on the barrel 01, and a snap-fit ​​groove 431 that mates with the snap-fit ​​piece 14 is formed on the cover 43. The snap-fit ​​groove 431 is located on the upper surface of the cover 43. The simultaneous provision of the snap-fit ​​assembly and the snap-fit ​​groove 131, as well as the snap-fit ​​piece 14 and the snap-fit ​​groove 431, provides good connection strength and facilitates easy assembly and disassembly.

[0056] In this embodiment, the snap-fit ​​assembly includes a horizontally moving member 44 and an elastic member 45 acting on the horizontally moving member 44. The horizontally moving member 44 has a guide surface, and the U-shaped frame 13 also forms a guide surface, so that the horizontally moving member 44 does not need to be pressed during installation, but only needs to be pressed during disassembly.

[0057] In this embodiment, the snap-fit ​​assembly also includes a mounting base 46 disposed on the cover 43, and the elastic element 45 is a compression spring, which is installed in the mounting base 46.

[0058] In this embodiment, there are two horizontal moving parts 44.

[0059] In this embodiment, a limiting portion 461 is formed on the mounting base 46 to limit the reset angle of the swing member 41. An anti-detachment portion 15 is formed on the material cylinder 01 to prevent the lifting member 31 from detaching. At least one of the limiting portion 461 on the mounting base 46 and the anti-detachment portion 15 on the material cylinder 01 limits the initial position of the swing member 41 and the lifting member 31.

[0060] In this embodiment, the swing member 41 is provided with bushings 47. There are two bushings 47 and they are located on both sides of the axial direction of the swing member 41, so that the handle 48 and the swing member 41 swing smoothly.

[0061] In this embodiment, the control component 4 further includes a handle 48 that is linked to the swing member 41. An anti-rotation connection portion is formed on the swing member 41, and both ends of the handle 48 are anti-rotationally connected to the anti-rotation connection portion of the swing member 41. The handle 48 engages with the swing member 41 through deformation. The anti-rotation connection portion has a spline groove. A decorative cover 49 is provided on the handle 48.

[0062] In this embodiment, the movable sealing assembly 3 also includes a sealing ring 32 disposed on the lifting member 31. There are two sealing rings 32, and the distance between the two sealing rings 32 is greater than the height of the connecting channel between the mixing chamber 11 and the discharge chamber 12.

[0063] In this embodiment, the discharge chamber 12 is vertically connected and has a uniform diameter.

[0064] In this embodiment, the lifting component 31 includes a rod base and two annular grooves extending radially outward from the rod base. The sealing ring 32 is located in the annular grooves, and the size of the annular grooves is adapted to the discharge chamber 12.

[0065] In this embodiment, initially, the upper sealing ring 32 is located above the connecting channel, and the lower sealing ring 32 is located below the connecting channel. The upper sealing ring 32 prevents the beverage in the discharge chamber 12 from flowing upward, and the lower sealing ring 32 prevents the beverage in the discharge chamber 12 from flowing downward. When discharge is required, the handle 48 is turned downward, and the swing member 41 swings with the handle 48. During the swing of the swing member 41, the engagement of the arc-shaped teeth 411 and the strip teeth 311 drives the sealing assembly to rise. The lower sealing ring 32 on the lifting member 31 of the sealing assembly is higher than the lowest point of the connecting channel between the stirring chamber 11 and the discharge chamber 12, and the beverage can fall between the lower sealing ring 32 and the connecting channel to achieve discharge. After discharge is completed, the handle 48 is released, and under the action of the reset member 42 (torsion spring), the sealing assembly resets and reseals the connecting channel.

[0066] In this embodiment, when disassembly and cleaning are required, press the two horizontal moving parts 44 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic part 45, causing the locking part of the horizontal moving part 44 to move out of the slot 131 of the material cylinder 01. Then, rotate the control component 4 upward at a small angle and move the control component 4 upward so that the locking piece 14 is completely removed from the locking slot 431, and the control component 4 can be removed. After the control component 4 is removed, an upward force can be applied to the sealing component to remove the sealing component from the discharge chamber 12. After cleaning, insert the sealing component into the discharge chamber 12, so that the control component 4 is at a small angle to the vertical plane, align the locking slot 431 of the control component 4 with the locking piece 14 of the material cylinder 01, and then rotate the control component 4 downward so that the locking part of the horizontal moving part 44 enters the slot 131 of the material cylinder 01, thus completing the assembly.

[0067] The beneficial effects of the discharge structure of the slush machine in Embodiment 1 of this utility model are: the discharge device 02 is detachably connected to the material cylinder 01, the control component 4 of the discharge device 02 is snapped into the material cylinder 01, and the movable sealing component 3 and the control component 4 are detachably connected, so that both the control component 4 and the movable sealing component 3 can be removed for easy cleaning; the snap-fit ​​design makes disassembly and assembly relatively easy, and can be completed by ordinary consumers.
