Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of snow melting machine technology, and in particular to a mixing container with an outwardly protruding material box and a snow melting machine. Background Technology
[0002] A slush machine (also known as a slush maker or icing machine) is a device used to make frozen drinks such as slushies and icing. Its main structure includes a refrigeration system (compressor, evaporator, condenser, etc.), a mixing cylinder, a mixing assembly (drive motor, scraper or spiral mixing blades, etc.), and a discharge structure (faucet, etc.).
[0003] During operation, the mixing drum receives and processes raw materials. After the raw materials are frozen by the evaporator, the cooled raw materials on the surface of the evaporator are scraped into slush by the spiral stirring blades and pushed forward to the tap for dispensing frozen drinks such as slush or slush. The mixing drum is generally equipped with a material box for adding raw materials. The material box usually needs to be designed with a certain capacity to accommodate the raw materials, so the material box needs to have a certain depth. This means that a large space needs to be reserved at the top of the mixing drum for the material box (i.e., there is a large space between the top of the mixing drum and the stirring components). This makes it easy for slush to accumulate in the upper part of the inner cavity of the mixing drum, reducing the material utilization rate. Utility Model Content

[0022] In the description of this utility model, the use of "first" and "second" is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features or the order of the technical features.
[0023] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0024] The following is for reference. Figures 1 to 5 This invention describes a mixing container with a convex material box according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5As shown, the mixing container with a convex material box according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a container body 100 and a discharge structure 200. The container body 100 is provided with a cavity 109 for accommodating raw materials and a stirring component. The discharge structure 200 is located at the front end of the container body 100 and connected to the cavity 109. The container body 100 has a long cylindrical structure. The upper part of the container body 100 is a back 101. The rear end of the container body 100 is provided with a rear opening 102. A material box 110 is provided protruding upward at the back 101. The material box 110 protrudes completely or partially from the upper surface of the back 101. Part or all of the back 101 is lower than the upper edge of the rear opening 102.
[0026] By protruding the material box 110, the back 101 can be lower than the upper edge of the rear opening 102. Compared with the traditional material cylinder, the back 101 is closer to the mixing component, thereby reducing the space for ice to accumulate in the upper part of the cavity 109, reducing the accumulation of ice in the upper part of the cavity, and improving the utilization rate of raw materials.
[0027] Specifically, since the material box 110 protrudes completely or partially from the upper surface of the back 101, that is, at least part of the material box 110 does not occupy the space of the cavity 109, the material box 110 is in an outward convex state on the upper surface of the container body 100, so that the back 101 of the material box 110 can be set lower, the rear opening 102 corresponds to the opening of the conventional material cylinder, and the gap between the back 101 at the lower position and the stirring component is much smaller than the corresponding gap of the conventional material cylinder, thereby reducing the space in the upper part of the cavity 109 where ice slush can accumulate.
[0028] In some embodiments of this utility model, the discharge structure 200 may be a discharge port or a discharge channel.
[0029] In some embodiments of this utility model, the height of the front end of the container body 100 is 1 to 1.2 times the width of the front end of the container body 100, effectively reducing the height of the front end of the container body 100.
[0030] Specifically, the height of a traditional material container is more than 1.25 times its width, resulting in a high back section. This allows a large amount of slush to accumulate in the back section of the container. In this invention, since the material box 110 protrudes completely or partially from the upper surface of the back section 101, meaning that at least part of the material box 110 does not occupy the space of the cavity 109, the back section 101 of the material box 110 can be set lower. The height of the front end of the container body 100 can be reduced to 1 to 1.2 times the width of the front end of the container body 100, effectively reducing the space for slush to accumulate in the upper part of the cavity 109.
[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the material box 110 is located at the rear end of the container body 100, which can reduce the impact of the material box 110 on the front end of the container body 100.
[0032] Specifically, the front end of the container body 100 is prone to forming a dead corner where slush accumulates. Placing the material box 110 at the rear end of the container body 100 can reduce slush accumulation at the front end. Furthermore, as... Figures 3 to 5 As shown, when the inclined back 101 design is adopted, the rear-mounted material box 110 can make the outline of the front end of the container body 100 smaller, which is more unfavorable for the accumulation of ice slush at the front end of the container body 100.
[0033] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the cross-sectional profile of the container body 100 gradually expands from front to back, which can reduce the profile of the front end of the container body 100 and reduce the accumulation of ice and sand at the front end of the container body 100.
[0034] Specifically, the material box 110 is located at the rear end of the container body 100. The larger rear part of the container body 100 facilitates the installation of the material box 110 and allows the cavity 109 to maintain a large volume. In particular, when the material box 110 protrudes from the upper surface of the container body 100, a larger space can be formed for installing the material box 110.
[0035] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the back 101 gradually rises from front to back, so that the back 101 at the front end of the container body 100 is closer to the stirring assembly, thereby reducing the accumulation of ice slush at the front end of the container body 100.
[0036] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the back 101 gradually rises from front to back and connects to the upper edge of the rear opening 102, which allows the cavity 109 to maintain a large volume so as to accommodate more raw materials.
[0037] Specifically, the rear opening 102 is set to be the same size as the rear opening of the traditional material cylinder, which is conducive to the installation and use of the container body 100. It can even replace the traditional material cylinder in the original snow melting machine, and can effectively reduce the accumulation of ice and improve the utilization rate of raw materials.
[0038] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the material box 110 is disposed near the rear opening 102 and partially protrudes from the upper surface of the back 101. The upper end of the material box 110 is flush with or parallel to the upper edge of the rear opening 102 to facilitate the placement of raw materials.
[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, part of the material box 110 protrudes from the upper surface of the back 101, and the part protruding from the upper surface of the back 101 corresponds to the inclined back 101, with a triangular structure on the front.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the back 101 extends to the rear opening 102 in a direction parallel to the axis of the stirring assembly, so that the gap between the back 101 and the stirring assembly is small, reducing the space that can accumulate ice slush.
[0041] Specifically, the snow melting machine is generally placed horizontally, with the container body 100 set horizontally and the back 101 extending roughly horizontally to the rear opening 102. Of course, in the specific implementation process, the back 101 can also extend in other directions. For example, when the container body 100 is set at an angle, the back 101 also extends in the direction of its angle.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the material box 110 is located near the rear opening 102, and the upper end of the material box 110 is level or parallel to the upper edge of the rear opening 102 to facilitate the placement of raw materials.
[0043] In some embodiments of this utility model, the upper end of the material box 110 is configured to be approximately flush with the upper edge of the rear opening 102, that is, the upper end of the material box 110 is configured to be flush with or parallel to the rear opening 102 with a small gap, the gap being generally less than 5mm.
[0044] It is understood that in some embodiments of this utility model, the back 101 may also be configured with other structures, such as the back 101 including a first parallel segment, a second parallel segment and a sloped segment, the first parallel segment being lower than the second parallel segment, the second parallel segment being flush with the upper edge of the rear opening 102, and the sloped segment connecting the first parallel segment and the second parallel segment.
[0045] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the material box 110 is provided with a feed inlet 111 on the side wall near the rear opening 102, that is, the feed inlet 111 faces the larger rear opening 102, so that the raw materials are fed in smoothly.
[0046] Specifically, if the feed inlet 111 faces forward, the lower back 101 will affect the entry of raw materials into the cavity 109. In this invention, the feed inlet 111 is set to face the larger rear opening 102, which can make the raw materials feed in smoothly.
[0047] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a snow melting machine includes a mixing container with a convex material box as described in any of the first aspects of the present invention, which can reduce the accumulation of ice slush in the upper part of the cavity 109 of the mixing container and improve the utilization rate of raw materials.
[0048] Of course, this invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this invention. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
