Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigeration technology, and in particular to a rapid-forming popsicle machine. Background Technology

[0002] An ice pop machine is a refrigeration device used for producing and storing ice pops, ice water, and other cold drinks. It mainly consists of a compressor-condenser unit, an evaporator, a stirrer, ice-making components, and a refrigeration unit. Existing ice pop machines have low efficiency, and after the ice pops are formed, their viscosity with the mold makes them difficult to remove and unmold quickly. Publication number CN103815112A discloses an ice pop machine belonging to the field of food processing equipment technology. It solves the problem of shell deformation and cracking that occurs in existing ice pop machines during long-term use. This popsicle machine includes a housing and a molding die covering the housing. The molding die has several molding cavities for freezing and shaping popsicles. The molding cavities are inserted into the housing, and a cavity is formed between the outer wall of the molding cavity and the inner wall of the housing. A refrigerant is placed in the cavity. The housing includes an outer shell and an inner shell. The inner wall of the inner shell has several elongated ridges circumferentially, with the ridges oriented vertically. The outer wall of the inner shell has elongated grooves opposite to the ridges. A positioning structure is provided between the outer shell and the inner shell. This popsicle machine cannot achieve rapid demolding. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a practical, reliable, and efficient popsicle making machine with fast demolding.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following solution: a rapid-forming popsicle machine, comprising a shell, a popsicle mold box, a compressor, and a condenser. The compressor and condenser are respectively disposed within the shell. The popsicle mold box is disposed on the top of the shell, and multiple popsicle slots are formed on the top of the popsicle mold box. A heat exchange chamber is formed within the popsicle mold box, and the heat exchange chamber is filled with coolant. The coolant surrounds the multiple popsicle slots. A heat exchange tube is disposed within the heat exchange chamber, and the heat exchange tube surrounds the multiple popsicle slots. The compressor is connected to the condenser, the condenser is connected to the heat exchange tube, and the heat exchange tube is connected to the compressor.

[0005] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: it enables rapid popsicle making. The popsicle machine is equipped with a popsicle mold box, a compressor, and a heat exchange chamber inside the popsicle mold box. The heat exchange chamber is filled with coolant and equipped with heat exchange tubes. The compressor delivers low-temperature refrigerant to the heat exchange tubes, which convert the high-temperature coolant into low-temperature coolant. The low-temperature coolant then absorbs heat from multiple popsicle slots, causing popsicles to form rapidly in the slots. Finally, a refrigerant solenoid valve delivers the high-temperature gas generated by the compressor to the heat exchange tubes, allowing the popsicles in the slots to be quickly demolded. The overall structure is practical and reliable, with high popsicle making efficiency. At the same time, by adjusting the temperature of the coolant by the compressor, different flavors and styles of popsicles can be enriched.

[0011] Furthermore, the popsicle mold box has an inner and outer layer structure, with the inner layer of the popsicle mold box made of metal and the outer layer of the popsicle mold box made of plastic.

[0012] Furthermore, the coolant is ethylene glycol. By employing the above structure, this invention fully utilizes the cooling capacity by adding ethylene glycol as a conductive medium, thereby significantly increasing the popsicle forming speed and greatly reducing energy consumption.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes an outer cover that encloses the popsicle mold housing and is used to cover multiple popsicle slots.

[0024] See appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5As shown, a rapid-form popsicle machine includes a housing 1, a popsicle mold box 2, a compressor 11, a condenser, and an outer cover 24. The compressor 11 and the condenser are respectively disposed inside the housing 1. The popsicle mold box 2 is disposed on the top of the housing 1. Multiple popsicle slots 21 are formed on the top of the popsicle mold box 2. A heat exchange chamber 22 is formed inside the popsicle mold box 2. The heat exchange chamber 22 is filled with coolant, which surrounds the multiple popsicle slots 21. Heat exchange tubes 23 are disposed inside the heat exchange chamber 22, surrounding the multiple popsicle slots 21. The compressor 11 is connected to the condenser, the condenser is connected to the heat exchange tubes 23, and the heat exchange tubes 23 are connected to the compressor 11.

[0025] In this embodiment, multiple popsicle slots 21 are arranged in an array.

[0026] In this embodiment, the heat exchange tube 23 extends vertically in a spiral shape.

[0027] In this embodiment, the top of the housing 1 is provided with a mounting groove 17, which is used to install the popsicle mold box 2.

[0028] In this embodiment, multiple heat dissipation holes 13 are respectively opened on the left and right side walls of the housing 1; the condenser includes a cooling fan 14.

[0029] In this embodiment, the compressor 11 is connected to a three-way valve 181. One port of the three-way valve 181 is connected to a first refrigerant copper pipe 182, and the other port of the three-way valve 181 is connected to a second refrigerant copper pipe 183. A refrigerant solenoid valve 185 is installed on the first refrigerant copper pipe 181. The first refrigerant copper pipe 182 is connected to a heat exchange pipe 23. A third refrigerant copper pipe 184 is connected between the heat exchange pipe 23 and the compressor 11. The second refrigerant copper pipe 183 passes through a cooling fan 14 and is connected to a dryer filter 186. The dryer filter 186 is connected to a capillary tube 187, and the capillary tube 187 is connected to the first refrigerant copper pipe 182.

[0030] In this embodiment, the popsicle mold box 2 has an inner and outer layer structure. The inner layer of the popsicle mold box 2 is made of metal, and the outer layer of the popsicle mold box 2 is made of plastic.

[0031] In this embodiment, the coolant is ethylene glycol.

[0032] In this embodiment, the outer cover 24 encloses the popsicle mold box 2, and the outer cover 24 is used to cover multiple popsicle slots 21.

[0033] In this embodiment, a liquid delivery pipe 161 is connected to the top side of the heat exchange chamber 23, a liquid return pipe 162 is connected to the bottom side of the heat exchange chamber 22, a liquid storage tank 15 is provided inside the shell 1, an electromagnetic water valve 163 is connected to the liquid return pipe 162, the electromagnetic water valve 163 is connected to the liquid storage tank 15, a liquid pump 164 is connected to the liquid storage tank 15, and the liquid pump 164 is connected to the liquid delivery pipe 161.

[0034] In this embodiment, the specific process of making popsicles is as follows: First, the corresponding materials are poured into multiple popsicle slots 21, and a stick or strip is inserted into each popsicle slot 21. Then, the liquid pump 162 is started and the electromagnetic water valve 161 is opened. The liquid pump 162 delivers the coolant from the storage tank 15 through the delivery pipe 161 to the heat exchange chamber 22 until the coolant completely fills the heat exchange chamber 22 and surrounds the multiple popsicle slots 21. Then, the compressor 11 is started. The compressor 11 delivers the refrigerant to the three-way valve 181 and closes the refrigerant solenoid valve 185. The three-way valve 181 delivers the refrigerant to the condenser. The condenser delivers low-temperature refrigerant to the heat exchange tube 23 through the capillary tube 187 and the first refrigeration copper tube 182. The low-temperature refrigerant in the heat exchange tube 23 exchanges heat with the coolant in the heat exchange chamber 22, causing the refrigerant to absorb heat and rise in temperature, and the coolant to release heat and drop in temperature, thereby reducing the temperature of the coolant. The refrigerant that has absorbed heat is then delivered back to the compressor 11. In this way, the low-temperature freezing liquid comes into full contact with multiple ice pop tanks 21, and the cold energy is fully transferred to the material in the ice pop tanks 21, thereby quickly freezing the ice pops into shape.

[0035] Traditional popsicle machines freeze popsicles in a refrigerator, and the temperature of the molds is uncontrollable. This embodiment uses whole-machine temperature control to control the heat exchange chamber 22 to form different temperatures, allowing users to make popsicles with different flavors at different temperatures.

[0036] In this embodiment, an electromagnetic water valve 163 and a liquid pump 164 are installed. When the popsicle is made, the electromagnetic water valve 163 will open, and the refrigerant will be transported from the heat exchange chamber 22 through the return pipe 162 and the electromagnetic water valve 163 to the pre-set storage tank 15 for storage. At this time, the refrigerant 185 electromagnetic valve is opened, and the high-temperature gas from the compressor is delivered to the three-way valve 181. The three-way valve 181 delivers high-temperature gas to the refrigerant electromagnetic valve 185. The high-temperature gas is delivered through the first refrigeration copper pipe 182 to the heat exchange pipe 23 inside the popsicle mold box 2. The surface of the popsicle is slightly melted by heating, so that it can be easily pulled out.

[0037] When a new round of popsicle making is needed, the refrigerant solenoid valve 185 closes, and refrigerant flows back into the heat exchange tube 23 inside the popsicle mold box 2 for cooling. At the same time, the liquid pump 164 will re-inject the refrigerant into the heat exchange chamber 22, thus starting a new round of popsicle making.

[0038] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model in any way. Any person skilled in the art can make more possible variations and modifications to the technical solution of this utility model, or modify it into equivalent embodiments, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the concept of this utility model without departing from the content of the technical solution of this utility model should be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
