Description

Whole-plate independent ice taking and conveying mechanism and method for square ice machine Technical Field The application relates to the field of ice block making, in particular to an independent ice taking and conveying mechanism and method for an ice cube maker whole plate. Background In the ice making industry, square ice is widely applied due to the characteristics of regular shape, convenience in storage and use and the like, the square ice maker is ice making equipment widely applied to the fields of catering hotels, cold chain logistics and the like, square ice cubes of an integral plate are mainly formed on the ice makers through a refrigerating system, the square ice cubes are mainly divided into the refrigerating system, a plurality of ice makers, an ice making water circulating system, an ice storage hopper and a screw conveying part, each ice maker is composed of a group of parallel metal plates, a plurality of ice making molds of ice grids are formed in gaps between each plate, openings of the ice grids are slightly inclined downwards, follow-up ice removing is facilitated, heat exchange copper pipes are arranged on the back surfaces of the ice makers, the ice making water circulating system uniformly sprays the ice making cubes on the ice grids of the ice makers through a water distributor, the refrigerant evaporates inside the heat exchange copper pipes, the ice making cubes flowing through the ice grids are cooled through the metal plates, all ice making cubes are frozen inside the ice cubes until all ice cubes are formed and are connected into a whole block, the ice making system is switched to a de-icing mode, the ice cubes fall off through the heat exchange plates and are vertically conveyed from the ice cubes through the screw conveying part through the screw 57to the ice making hopper, and fall from the front face sides of the ice making molds through the ice making molds. The existing conveying mode is that square ice directly falls into an ice storage hopper, temporary storage is carried in the ice storage hopper, when the need arises, the square ice is conveyed to an ice outlet through a screw conveying component below, the screw conveying component mainly comprises a conveying screw, a conveying groove and a conveying motor, the conveying screw is provided with a spiral blade on a circular pipe, then the circular pipe is driven to rotate by the conveying motor, and the square ice in the conveying groove is conveyed to the ice outlet along one direction through the spiral blade. In view of the above related art, the applicant considers that there is a disadvantage in that square ice directly falls on an ice storage hopper in a free falling manner, and an ice maker has a certain height from the bottom of the ice storage hopper, and the square ice connected into a whole plate is crashed on a metal plate surface at the bottom of the ice storage hopper after falling, so that ice cubes are crashed to damage the integrity of the square ice, meanwhile, the square ice is conveyed away in a stirring-like manner in the conveying process of a screw conveying part, the square ice is further extruded and crushed in the conveying process, the integrity of the square ice is further damaged, the square ice obtained in the conveying process is not attractive, a lot of crushed ice is generated, and the melting resistance of the square ice is also reduced. Disclosure of Invention In order to improve the integrity of whole-plate square ice, the application provides an independent whole-plate ice taking and conveying mechanism of an ice machine. The application provides a whole-plate independent ice taking and conveying mechanism and method of an ice cube maker, which adopts the following technical scheme: The ice receiving plate moves out of the ice receiving machine under the horizontal pushing action of the driving mechanism until moving to the position above the conveying surface of the conveying belt assembly, the ice receiving plate overturns towards the conveying surface of the conveying belt assembly under the rotating action of the driving mechanism until the end part of the ice receiving plate obliquely downwards faces the conveying surface of the conveying belt assembly, and the ice receiving plate at the ice receiving plate is arranged on one side of the ice receiving machine and used for conveying the ice in the whole plate, so as to be connected with the ice receiving machine and the ice discharging action under the self gravity action and the guide action of the ice receiving plate. Through adopting above-mentioned technical scheme, connect the whole board square ice that the ice slab direct accepted and drop from ice making mould, avoided square ice free fall and the broken problem that ice storage bucket bottom collision led to, guaranteed square ice's integrality. The driving mechanism drives the ice receiving plate to stably move and turn between the ice cube maker and the conveying
