Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice cream machine technology, specifically to an ice cream machine housing structure. Background Technology

[0002] Existing household ice cream machines have multi-section assembled shells, with visible seams on the exposed surface. Furthermore, the shell itself needs to be assembled and secured to the refrigeration system, making the overall assembly process more complex. For example, in an ice cream machine disclosed in patent CN214629622U, the shell is assembled from a top cover, a left shell, and a right shell. The refrigeration system needs to be simultaneously positioned and assembled with these three components, requiring high manufacturing precision for each part. This complex assembly process increases the overall production cost. Utility Model Content
