Abstract
An ice shaver includes a main machine, a first accommodation cylinder with a cutting blade, and a press-to-rotate assembly. During use, ice cubes are placed in the first accommodation cylinder, and then the press-to-rotate assembly is quickly assembled to shave ice. In addition, a second accommodation cylinder can be included to replace the press-to-rotate assembly for placing the ice cubes, and a spiral blade in the second accommodation cylinder can be used to rotate and guide the ice cubes to shave ice, thereby expanding the application range of the ice shaver.
Claims11
An ice shaver, comprising:
- a main machine, comprising a socketing seat and a drive device;
- wherein the socketing seat has a circular inner periphery with a top and a bottom, both are in an open state, an external ring gear is movably arranged between the top and the bottom, the external ring gear has an engagement part located outside the periphery and hidden in the socketing seat, the engagement part is driven by the drive device to rotate the external ring gear, and the external ring gear has a snap part located inside the periphery and exposed in the circular inner periphery of the socketing seat;
- a first accommodation cylinder, fixed to the socketing seat, the first accommodation cylinder having a circular opening top and a flat bottom plate, the top being fixed to the bottom of the circular inner periphery, the bottom plate comprising a protruding cutting blade and a material outlet, and a first accommodation space being formed between the top and the bottom plate for accommodating an ice cube;
- and
- a press-to-rotate assembly, comprising a plurality of snap elements, a plurality of flexible telescopic arms extending downward from the snap element, and a plurality of nail plates located at the bottom of the flexible telescopic arm;
- wherein the snap element is detachably snapped on the snap part of the external ring gear, so that the flexible telescopic arm and the nail plate extend downward into the first accommodation space of the first accommodation cylinder to elastically press down the external ice cube, and when the external ring gear is driven to rotate, the press-to-rotate assembly and the pressed ice cube rotate relative to the bottom plate and cutting blade of the first accommodation cylinder through the snap relationship between the snap element and the snap part, so that the ice cube is shaved by the cutting blade and then falls through the material outlet.
