[0022] This utility model proposes an ice cream machine.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of this utility model, the ice cream machine includes: The outer casing 100 includes a top plate 110, a front plate 120, a rear plate 140, and two spaced-apart side plates 130. The top plate 110, the front plate 120, the rear plate 140, and the two side plates 130 are snapped together and enclosed to form an installation space. Cutting tool 200, located within the installation space; and The cup holder 300 is located in the installation space and is used to install the cup body assembly 310. The cup holder 300 moves relative to the cutter 200 and grinds the ice cubes inside the cup body assembly 310 by rotating the cutter 200.

[0024] In the technical solution of this utility model, the ice cream machine includes a housing 100, within which an installation space is formed. A blade 200 and a cup holder 300 are installed within the installation space. The blade 200 and the cup holder 300 move relative to each other, allowing the blade 200 to move into a cup assembly 310 on the cup holder 300. The blade 200 then grinds the ice inside the cup assembly 310 through rotation. The housing 100 includes a top plate 110, a front plate 120, a rear plate 140, and side plates 130. The side plates 130 are provided with two... The panels are arranged at intervals, with the front panel 120 and the rear panel 140 facing each other. The bottom of the side panel 130 is provided with a base plate, and the top panel 110 is arranged opposite to the base plate, forming an installation space. The four sides of the top panel 110 are respectively engaged with the front panel 120, the rear panel 140 and the side panel 130, and the two sides of the front panel 120 and the rear panel 140 are also engaged with the side panel 130. The assembly is relatively simple. Compared with the connection by screws, it is easier to disassemble, shortening the disassembly and assembly time, reducing downtime and lowering costs.

[0025] As a refrigeration device, the ice cream machine needs to grind ice cubes into slush during operation. The ice cream machine includes an outer shell 100 and a cup holder 300 and a blade 200 inside the outer shell 100. The blade 200 is located above the cup holder 300. A cup body assembly 310 is provided on the top of the cup holder 300. The top of the cup body assembly 310 has an opening, and a cup lid is provided at the opening. Ice cubes or other food to be processed are placed inside the cup body assembly. The cup holder 300 moves toward the blade 200, so that the blade 200 passes through the cup lid. Through the rotation of the blade 200, the blade 200 grinds inside the cup body assembly 310.

[0026] Specifically, the outer shell 100 can be square or round, without any restrictions. The bottom of the outer shell 100 can be provided with a support pad, which is "L" shaped and can be made of silicone. This not only improves the friction between the outer shell 100 and the table or other support, preventing movement when grinding ice cubes inside, but also reduces shaking during internal operation.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In the embodiments of this utility model, at least one base 500 is provided on the side of the front plate 120, side plate 130 and rear plate 140 facing the installation space. At least one snap-fit ​​part 510 is provided on each of the four sides of the top plate 110 facing the installation space. The snap-fit ​​part 510 snaps with the base 500. Taking one side plate 130 as an example, multiple bases 500 are provided at intervals along the length direction on the upper part of the inner wall of the side plate 130. The same applies to the other side plate 130, as well as the front plate 120 and the rear plate 140. Correspondingly, multiple snap-fit ​​parts 510 are also provided at intervals along the length direction on the four sides of the bottom of the top plate 110. When assembling the top plate 110, each snap-fit ​​part 510 is snapped with one base 500.

[0028] In one embodiment, the base 500 is provided with a through hole extending in a vertical direction, and the bottom of the snap-fit ​​part 510 is bent to form a snap hook 511. The snap-fit ​​part 510 extends downward into the through hole and the snap hook 511 snaps into the through hole to prevent the top plate 110 from detaching upward.

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the snap-fit ​​part 510 is bent toward the installation space. When the top plate 110 is assembled, the top plate 110 moves downward and the snap-fit ​​part 510 is inserted downward into the through hole formed by the base 500. At this time, the outer wall of the hook 511 contacts the inner wall of the through hole. As the snap-fit ​​part 510 moves downward until it passes through the through hole, the hook 511 snaps into the bottom of the through hole. Since all four sides of the top plate 110 are snapped into the base 500 in this way, the top plate 110 is restricted from moving upward to disengage from the side plate 130, the front plate 120, and the rear plate 140.

[0030] In one embodiment, the bottom of the hook 511 is inclined, and the horizontal distance between the top of the hook 511 and the engaging part 510 is greater than the horizontal distance between the bottom of the hook 511 and the engaging part 510. When the engaging part 510 enters the through hole from top to bottom, the inclined bottom of the hook 511 can also guide the entry of the hook 511. After the engaging part 510 is fully inserted into the through hole, the top of the hook 511 engages with the bottom of the through hole, restricting vertical disengagement.

[0031] In one embodiment, a baffle is vertically provided downward on the side of the top plate 110 near the rear plate 140. The snap-fit ​​portion 510 on the side of the top plate 110 near the rear plate 140 is configured as a limiting portion. The limiting portion is provided on the baffle, and no hook portion is provided at the bottom. When assembling the top plate 110, the limiting portion is inserted downward into the through hole, and the baffle is also inserted into the installation space. The rear plate 140 covers the baffle in the installation space. When the top plate 110 is removed by releasing the restriction, either side can be released first. For example, if the front plate 120 is released first, the front plate 120 is restricted. The direction between the top plate 110 and the rear plate 140 is the first direction, and the direction between the two side plates 130 is the second direction. The top plate 110 is moved in the direction of the first direction toward the front plate 120. The snap-fit ​​part 510 of the top plate 110 near the front plate 120 also moves in the first direction in the through hole of the base 500. At this time, the snap hook 511 disengages from the through hole and can move upward to disengage from the base 500. Similarly, the two side plates 130 are the same. First, the top plate 110 is moved in the second direction toward one of the side plates 130. After the restriction is released, it moves toward the other side plate 130. This will not be described in detail here.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment of the present invention, multiple first latching seats 520 are arranged vertically at intervals on both sides of the rear plate 140. The first latching seats 520 form an upward-opening latch. Multiple latching blocks 530 are arranged vertically at intervals on the inner wall of the side plate 130 near the rear plate 140. The latching blocks 530 engage with the latch to connect the rear plate 140 and the side plate 130. Both sides of the latch are also open. The latching blocks 530 are pressed into the latches of the first latching seats 520 from top to bottom. The limiting position of the seat 520 away from the rear plate 140 can prevent the rear plate 140 from moving upward and in a direction away from the front plate 120. When separating, the top plate 110 is removed first, and then the side plate 130 is moved in a direction away from the other side plate 130. The locking block 530 slides out from the side of the locking opening, thereby unlocking the rear plate 140 and the side plate 130. In addition, multiple first locking seats 520 and locking blocks 530 are provided, and they are respectively locked, which can improve the stability of the locking between the side plate 130 and the rear plate 140.

[0033] In an embodiment of this utility model, the ice cream machine further includes a mounting shell 400, which is disposed in the mounting space and inserted into the front panel 120, covering the blade 200 and the cup holder 300. The blade 200 and the cup holder 300 are exposed on the side of the mounting shell 400 facing the front panel 120. The mounting shell 400 facing the side panel 130 is provided with buckles 540 from top to bottom, and the side panel 130 is provided with holders 550 from top to bottom. Each buckle 540 is engaged with a holder 550 to limit the side panel 130 from disengaging from the mounting shell 400.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting shell 400 internally encloses the knife 200, cup holder 300, and cup body assembly 310, with the side facing the front panel 120 being open to expose the cup holder 300 and knife 200 for easy access to food. The mounting shell 400 is connected to the front panel 120 via a pivot. Enclosing the cup holder 300 and knife 200 with the mounting shell 400 can reduce some of the noise during operation and improve the working environment. On the outside of the mounting shell 400, near the front panel 120, multiple buckles 540 are arranged vertically at intervals on both sides. On the side of the side panel 130 near the front panel 120, multiple holders 550 are arranged from top to bottom. Each buckle 540 engages with a holder 550, which can restrict the side panel 130 from moving away from the other side panel 130.

[0035] In other words, in this scheme, the bottom of the top plate 110 is engaged with the side plate 130, the rear plate 140, and the front plate 120. The two sides of the side plate 130 are engaged with the rear plate 140 and the mounting shell 400 connected to the front plate 120, respectively, and they restrict each other. When the restriction is lifted, no matter which plate is moved first, a certain deformation is required.

[0036] In embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the ice cream machine also includes a rigid frame 150, which is located within the installation space. The blade 200 is mounted on the rigid frame 150. The rigid frame 150 is horizontally positioned and uses a sheet metal frame. When the blade 200 rotates and grinds ice cubes within the cup holder 300, the resulting shaking is absorbed by the internal rigid frame 150, weakening the vibration energy transmitted to the outer casing 100. This reduces the shaking of the entire machine during operation and improves stability. In addition, since the blade 200 and the cup holder 300 are no longer directly mounted on the outer casing 100, they no longer serve as direct support structures, which can reduce internal noise during operation.

[0037] In embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, at least one second snap-fit ​​seat 560 is provided on the inner wall of the side plate 130, front plate 120, and rear plate 140. A downwardly extending snap-fit ​​plate 151 is bent along the side of the rigid frame 150. The snap-fit ​​plate 151 snaps into the second snap-fit ​​seat 560. The second snap-fit ​​seat 560 includes a first seat body and a second seat body. The first seat body is disposed on the inner wall of the outer casing 100 and extends away from the inner wall of the outer casing 100. The second seat body is fixed to the side of the first seat body away from the inner wall of the outer casing 100 and extends upward, forming a certain gap between the second seat body and the inner wall of the outer casing 100. This gap is configured as a snap-fit ​​groove, with openings formed at the upper end and on both sides of the snap-fit ​​groove. The structure of the first snap-fit ​​seat 520 is similar to that of the second snap-fit ​​seat 560. The seat 560 structure has a snap-fit ​​plate 151 formed on the side of the rigid frame 150. The snap-fit ​​plate 151 is integrally formed with the rigid frame 150. The snap-fit ​​plate 151 and the rigid frame 150 are bent and extended downward, so that the connection between the snap-fit ​​plate 151 and the rigid frame 150 forms an "L" shaped cross section. The snap-fit ​​plate 151 is inserted downward into the snap-fit ​​groove, so that the bottom of the snap-fit ​​groove can limit the snap-fit ​​plate 151 and prevent the rigid frame 150 from falling off the snap-fit ​​seat, thereby connecting the rigid frame 150 to the inner wall of the outer shell 100. The cooperation between the snap-fit ​​plate 151 and the snap-fit ​​seat not only facilitates the connection between the rigid frame 150 and the outer shell 100, but also facilitates its disassembly and reassembly so that it can be removed for repair or replacement when internal components are damaged.

[0038] In one embodiment, the second seat has an inclined surface at one end away from the first seat and on the side facing the snap-fit ​​groove, forming a guide portion to guide the snap-fit ​​plate 151 when it is inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0039] In embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the ice cream machine also includes a first support rib 160, which is located on the side of the top plate 110 facing the installation space. The first support rib 160 is used to abut against the rigid frame 150 and the first support frame. The first support rib 160 is made of steel or plastic and is integrally formed with the top plate 110. The first support rib 160 extends downward from the top plate 110. When the snap-fit ​​plate 151 snaps into the snap-fit ​​seat, the bottom of the first support rib 160 abuts against the top of the rigid frame 150, which can prevent the rigid frame 150 from moving upward and disengaging from the snap-fit ​​seat, thereby improving the stability of the rigid frame 150 and thus improving the stability of the internal components of the entire outer shell 100, reducing shaking and noise during processing.

[0040] In one embodiment, in order to improve the strength of the first support rib 160, the first support rib 160 includes a cylindrical portion and a protruding rib disposed on the outer periphery of the cylindrical portion and extending along the axial direction of the cylindrical portion. The number of the first support rib 160 is not limited and can be 4, 6 or 8, etc.

[0041] In an embodiment of this utility model, the front panel 120 has an opening communicating with the installation space, and a door cover 121 is provided at the opening. The door cover 121 is rotatably connected to the front panel 120 to open or close the opening.

[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, an opening is provided on one side of the installation space, and a door cover 121 is provided on the side of the opening. One side of the door cover 121 is movably connected to the front panel 120, so that the installation space is in an open or closed state. When the knife 200 and the cup holder 300 in the installation space move relative to each other, the door cover 121 is closed in advance, so that the interior of the installation space is closed, thereby blocking the sound of the internal knife 200 rotating and colliding with the ice cubes in the installation space, reducing sound leakage, reducing noise, and also improving the safety of operation.

[0043] In an embodiment of this utility model, the ice cream machine further includes a first drive module and a second drive module. The first drive module is located in the installation space and is driven to connect with the cutter 200. The second drive module is located in the installation space and is driven to connect with the cup holder 300. The second drive module drives the cup holder 300 to move toward the cutter 200, and the first drive module drives the cutter 200 to rotate within the cup body assembly 310 on the cup holder 300.

[0044] Specifically, the first drive module includes a first drive motor located inside the housing 100. A drive wheel and a driven wheel are also provided within the installation space, connected by a belt drive. An output shaft is coaxially connected to the drive wheel. The first drive motor drives the drive wheel to rotate via the output shaft, and drives the driven wheel to rotate via the belt. A drive shaft is coaxially connected to the driven wheel, and the lower end of the drive shaft is connected to the tool 200 via a tool shaft. Thus, when the driven wheel rotates, it drives the tool 200 to rotate via the drive shaft and the tool shaft. The second drive module may include a second drive motor. The machine drives the cup holder 300 to rise via a worm gear, which in turn drives the cup body assembly 310 to rise, bringing the cup body assembly 310 closer to the cutter 200 until the cutter 200 enters the interior of the cup body assembly 310. At this time, the first drive module drives the cutter 200 to grind the ice inside the cup body assembly 310. After grinding is completed, the locking structure is de-energized, unlocking the door cover 121 and the outer shell 100, thereby opening the door cover 121 and taking out the cup body assembly 310. The door cover 121 reduces the noise transmitted from inside during the grinding of ice, thus providing a relatively quiet working environment.

[0045] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
