Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of iced beverage technology, and in particular to an integrated ice-making and snow-melting machine. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, ice drink machines typically only perform a single function of ice making or slush melting. When both ice cubes and slushies are needed simultaneously, two separate devices are usually required, one for ice making and the other for slush melting. A single device cannot meet diverse ice drink needs. Therefore, existing technologies have also developed integrated ice-making and slush melting machines that combine ice making and slush melting functions into one unit. This device typically has independent ice-making and slush melting components. To achieve these functions, each component has its own independent refrigeration unit. Each refrigeration unit includes an interconnected compressor, condenser, and evaporator. While this structure ensures the normal operation of both components, it also results in a large overall size for the integrated ice-making and slush melting machine, making it inconvenient to move and requiring significant space, thus failing to meet the needs of portable applications. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes an integrated ice-making and snow-melting machine, capable of both ice-making and snow-melting functions, and is small in size, making it easy to transport and carry.

The refrigeration assembly includes a compressor and a condenser, which are connected by a refrigeration flow channel. A three-way pipe is also provided within the mounting cavity. The three-way pipe has a first port, a second port, and a third port that are interconnected. The first port is connected to the first evaporator via a first connecting pipe, the second port is connected to the second evaporator via a second connecting pipe, and the third port is connected to the condenser via a third connecting pipe. A first solenoid valve for controlling the opening and closing of the first connecting pipe is provided between the first port and the first evaporator, and a second solenoid valve for controlling the opening and closing of the second connecting pipe is provided between the second port and the second evaporator.

[0005] The integrated ice-making and snow-melting machine according to the embodiments of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: By using a three-way pipe, the ice-making and snow-melting components can share a single set of refrigeration components. This means refrigerant can be supplied to both components through the same set of refrigeration components, enabling both ice-making and snow-melting functions. This also significantly reduces the overall size of the integrated ice-making and snow-melting machine, making it easier to move and carry, and greatly improving the user experience. Furthermore, by using a first solenoid valve and a second solenoid valve, the ice-making component starts working and the snow-melting component stops working when the first solenoid valve is open and the second solenoid valve is closed; when the first solenoid valve is closed and the second solenoid valve is open, the ice-making component stops working and the snow-melting component starts working; when both solenoid valves are open, both ice-making and snow-melting components work simultaneously; and when both solenoid valves are closed, both ice-making and snow-melting components stop working.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 6This utility model provides an integrated ice-making and snow-melting machine, comprising a housing 100, an ice-making component 200, a snow-melting component 300, and a refrigeration component 400. The housing 100 has an installation cavity 110. The ice-making component 200 is disposed within the installation cavity 110 and includes a first evaporator 210, an ice-making chamber 220, and an ice-retrieving chamber 230. The first evaporator 210 is installed within the ice-making chamber 220, and the ice-retrieving chamber 230 is movably installed below the ice-making chamber 220 and can move in and out of the installation cavity 110. The snow-melting component 300 is disposed outside the housing 100 and includes a second evaporator 310, a snow-melting chamber 320, and a scraper mechanism 330. The second evaporator 310 is installed within the snow-melting chamber 320, and the scraper mechanism 330 is disposed within the snow-melting chamber 320 and is used to scrape off ice and shavings from the sidewalls of the snow-melting chamber 320. The snow-melting chamber 320 is also provided with... The material discharge assembly 340; the refrigeration assembly 400 is disposed in the mounting cavity 110, the refrigeration assembly 400 includes a compressor 410 and a condenser 420, the compressor 410 and the condenser 420 are connected by a refrigeration flow channel 430; wherein, the mounting cavity 110 is also provided with a three-way pipe 500, the three-way pipe 500 has a first port, a second port and a third port that are interconnected, the first port is connected to the first evaporator 210 through a first connecting pipe 510, the second port is connected to the second evaporator 310 through a second connecting pipe 520, and the third port is connected to the condenser 420 through a third connecting pipe 530; a first solenoid valve 540 for controlling the opening and closing of the first connecting pipe 510 is also provided between the first port and the first evaporator 210, and a second solenoid valve 550 for controlling the opening and closing of the second connecting pipe 520 is also provided between the second port and the second evaporator 310.

[0024] In the ice-making and snow-melting integrated machine of this utility model embodiment, by setting a three-way pipe 500, the ice-making component 200 and the snow-melting component 300 can share a set of refrigeration components 400. That is, refrigerant can be delivered to the ice-making component 200 and the snow-melting component 300 through the same set of refrigeration components 400, thereby realizing the ice-making function and the snow-melting function. It can also greatly reduce the overall size of the ice-making and snow-melting integrated machine, making it convenient to transport and carry, and greatly improving the user experience.

[0025] Specifically, a three-way pipe 500 is installed, with its third port connected to the condenser 420 via a third connecting pipe 530. This allows refrigerant to be supplied to the three-way pipe 500 via the third connecting pipe 530. The first port of the three-way pipe 500 is connected to the first evaporator 210 via a first connecting pipe 510, allowing refrigerant to be supplied to the first evaporator 210 and forming ice blocks in the ice-making chamber 220, thus achieving the ice-making function. After the ice blocks in the ice-making chamber 220 fall into the ice-retrieving chamber 230, the ice-retrieving chamber 230 can be removed from the installation cavity 110, allowing the ice blocks to be retrieved. The second port of the three-way pipe 500 is connected to the second evaporator 310 via a second connecting pipe 520, allowing refrigerant to be supplied to the second evaporator 310 and forming slush in the snow-melting chamber 320, thus achieving the snow-melting function. The scraper mechanism 330 scrapes the slush off the inner wall of the snow-melting chamber 320, and the user can retrieve the slush through the discharge assembly 340.

[0026] Furthermore, by setting a first solenoid valve 540 and a second solenoid valve 550, the first solenoid valve 540 is located between the first port and the first evaporator 210 and is used to control the opening and closing of the first connecting pipe 510, and the second solenoid valve 550 is located between the second port and the second evaporator 310 and is used to control the opening and closing of the second connecting pipe 520. Thus, when the first solenoid valve 540 is open and the second solenoid valve 550 is closed, the ice-making assembly 200 starts working and the snow-melting assembly 300 stops working; when the first solenoid valve 540 is closed and the second solenoid valve 550 is open, the ice-making assembly 200 stops working and the snow-melting assembly 300 starts working; when the first solenoid valve 540 and the second solenoid valve 550 are both open, the ice-making assembly 200 and the snow-melting assembly 300 can work simultaneously; when the first solenoid valve 540 and the second solenoid valve 550 are both closed, the ice-making assembly 200 and the snow-melting assembly 300 both stop working. It is evident that the design of the first solenoid valve 540 and the second solenoid valve 550 makes the operation of the ice-making and snow-melting integrated machine more convenient and flexible, which is conducive to further improving the user experience.

[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In some embodiments, a water tank 240 is also provided inside the mounting cavity 110. The water tank 240 is movably installed below the ice-retrieving chamber 230 and can move in and out of the mounting cavity 110. A delivery pump 250 is provided between the water tank 240 and the ice-making chamber 220, which can deliver water from the water tank 240 to the ice-making chamber 220. This allows for timely replenishment of water to the ice-making chamber 220, preventing insufficient water in the ice-making chamber 220 from affecting the ice-making process.

[0028] Reference Figure 1In some embodiments, the top wall of the housing 100 is provided with a water inlet 120, which is located above and connected to the ice-making chamber 220. Therefore, in addition to using the delivery pump 250 to transport water from the water tank 240 to the ice-making chamber 220, water can also be directly added to the ice-making chamber 220 through the water inlet 120, making the water replenishment of the ice-making chamber 220 more flexible and convenient.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 In some embodiments, a guide portion (not shown in the figure) is provided around the water inlet 120. The guide portion extends upward from the housing 100. The guide portion facilitates the guidance of water into the water inlet 120 and downward into the ice-making chamber 220, making the water replenishment of the ice-making chamber 220 more convenient.

[0030] It is understandable that, in order to facilitate the flow of water into the ice-making chamber 220, the guide part can be arranged to extend upward from the shell 100 or to extend downward from the shell 100 toward the ice-making chamber 220. This utility model does not make any specific limitation on this.

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In some embodiments, the ice-making chamber 220 has an ice-making cavity 221 for holding ice blocks, a first evaporator 210 is installed in the ice-making cavity 221, and the side wall of the ice-making chamber 220 is also provided with an ice outlet 222 communicating with the ice-making cavity 221; the ice-retrieving chamber 230 has an ice-retrieving cavity 231 for storing ice blocks, and the upper side wall of the ice-retrieving chamber 230 is provided with an ice-retrieving outlet 232 communicating with the ice-retrieving cavity 231; the ice-making assembly 200 also includes a first driving mechanism 260, which is installed in the housing 100 and movably connected to the ice-making chamber 220. The first driving mechanism 260 can drive the ice-making chamber 220 to rotate upward relative to the housing 100 and drive the ice outlet 222 to rotate upward and approach the water inlet 120, or the first driving mechanism 260 can drive the ice-making chamber 220 to rotate downward relative to the housing 100 and drive the ice outlet 222 to rotate downward and approach the ice-retrieving outlet 232.

[0032] In the above structure, after the first evaporator 210 cools and forms ice in the ice-making chamber 220, the first driving mechanism 260 can drive the ice-making chamber 220 to rotate downward relative to the shell 100 and drive the ice outlet 222 to rotate downward and approach the ice collection port 232. As a result, the ice in the ice-making chamber 220 can fall downward into the ice collection chamber 230. Then, the first driving mechanism 260 can drive the ice-making chamber 220 to rotate upward relative to the shell 100 and drive the ice outlet 222 to rotate upward and approach the water inlet 120. As a result, water can be added to the ice-making chamber 220 and the ice-making operation can continue.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 4In some embodiments, the ice-making chamber 220 is also equipped with a baffle 270. The baffle 270 is installed on one side edge of the ice outlet 222 and extends away from the ice-making chamber 220. The baffle 270 can rotate upward or downward relative to the housing 100 with the ice-making chamber 220. The first driving mechanism 260 can drive the ice-making chamber 220 to rotate downward toward the side where the baffle 270 is provided, and make the ice outlet rotate downward and close to the ice-retrieving outlet 232. This allows the baffle 270 to guide the ice blocks falling into the ice-retrieving chamber 230, so that the ice blocks slide down along the baffle 270 into the ice-retrieving chamber 230. At the same time, the baffle 270 can also prevent the ice blocks from falling outside the ice-retrieving chamber 230.

[0034] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments, the second evaporator 310 is arranged vertically within the snow melting chamber 320, and the scraper mechanism 330 is fitted around the outer periphery of the second evaporator 310 and extends toward the inner wall of the snow melting chamber 320. The snow melting assembly 300 also includes a second drive mechanism 360, which is mounted on the housing 100 and drivenly connected to the scraper mechanism 330. The second drive mechanism 360 can drive the scraper mechanism 330 to rotate relative to the housing 100. Thus, the second evaporator 310 can cool and melt the liquid in the snow melting chamber 320, and then the scraper mechanism 330 rotates and agitates the liquid to form slush. Since the scraper mechanism 330 is fitted around the outer periphery of the second evaporator 310 and extends toward the inner wall of the snow melting chamber 320, it can scrape off the slush from the inner wall of the snow melting chamber 320 during rotation, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the snow melting process.

[0035] It is understood that the second evaporator 310 is installed inside the snow melting chamber 320. Specifically, the second evaporator 310 can be fixedly installed inside the snow melting chamber 320, and the second drive mechanism 360 can drive the scraper mechanism 330 to rotate relative to the second evaporator 310. Alternatively, the second evaporator 310 can also be rotatably installed inside the snow melting chamber 320 and can rotate synchronously with the scraper mechanism 330. This utility model does not make specific limitations on this.

[0036] Understandably, to ensure the proper functioning of the snow melting process, in addition to installing the second evaporator 310 inside the snow melting chamber 320, refer to... Figure 1In some embodiments, the melting assembly further includes a mounting sleeve 350, which is fixedly installed on the housing 100. The snow melting chamber 320 is detachably installed inside the mounting sleeve 350. A second evaporator 310 is arranged around the outer peripheral wall of the snow melting chamber 320 and located between the snow melting chamber 320 and the mounting sleeve 350. A scraper mechanism 330 is rotatably installed inside the snow melting chamber 320 and extends toward the inner peripheral wall of the snow melting chamber 320. Thus, the second evaporator 310 can cool the peripheral wall of the snow melting chamber 320 and transmit the cold energy to the inside of the snow melting chamber 320, thereby cooling and melting the liquid inside the snow melting chamber 320. The scraper mechanism 330 rotates and agitates the liquid to form ice slush. The scraper mechanism 330 is fitted around the outer periphery of the second evaporator 310 and extends toward the inner wall of the snow melting chamber 320. Therefore, the scraper mechanism 330 can scrape off the ice slush from the inner wall of the snow melting chamber 320 during rotation, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the snow melting process.

[0037] Understandably, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The scraper mechanism 330 specifically includes a mounting part and a scraper. The mounting part is rotatably mounted inside the snow melting chamber 320. The scraper spiral is arranged on the outer periphery of the mounting part and extends toward the inner peripheral wall of the snow melting chamber 320, thereby agitating the liquid inside the snow melting chamber 320 and scraping off the ice sand from the inner wall of the snow melting chamber 320 when rotating.

[0038] In some embodiments, the snow melting chamber 320 is detachably installed on the mounting sleeve 350. The snow melting chamber 320 can move upward relative to the mounting sleeve 350 and be installed on the mounting sleeve 350, or the snow melting chamber 320 can move downward relative to the mounting sleeve 350 and detach from the mounting sleeve 350. This facilitates the replenishment of liquid in the snow melting chamber 320 and also facilitates the cleaning of the snow melting chamber 320.

[0039] Reference Figures 2 to 6 In some embodiments, the mounting cavity 110 includes a first cavity 111 and a second cavity 112 arranged side by side in a left-right direction. The ice-making component 200 is installed in the first cavity 111, the refrigeration component 400 is installed in the second cavity 112, and the snow-melting component is installed on the front side wall of the housing 100 and located in front of the second cavity 112. This allows for efficient use of the space within the mounting cavity 110, resulting in a more compact structure among the various components inside the housing 100, which helps to reduce the overall size of the integrated ice-making and snow-melting machine.

[0040] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Furthermore, the embodiments of the present invention and the features thereof can be combined with each other unless otherwise specified.
