A frozen fluid mixing and dispensing apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus includes a flexible-walled package enclosing a cavity that receives a liquid that is mixed with air and chilled in the apparatus to form an associated frozen slurry therethrough.

A frozen food appliance and related method of making a frozen food product. A rotational drive assembly configured in an axial alignment using a direct drive to produce rotational movement of a blade element to contact a frozen food precursor in a frozen food container associated with the frozen food appliance where the rotational drive assembly omits rotational speed modifying gears and transmissions positioned between a drive motor and the blade element. In another aspect, a rotational drive assembly may be kept in axial alignment with a frozen food container via a multi portioned container mount having a float connector.

A spherical puffing pump for an ice cream machine and an air inlet device thereof. The spherical puffing pump includes a spherical pump body, a clamping plate and an air inlet valve. A liquid feeding hole of the spherical pump body is connected to a milk slurry tank to feed milk slurry. The air inlet valve is connected to a channel of the liquid feeding hole to introduce air. A liquid discharging hole is connected to a liquid inlet of a refrigerating cylinder. A pump seat is fixed on the ice cream machine. An end portion of the pump seat protrudes from an inner wall of the tank. A cylinder of the spherical pump body is connected to the end portion through the clamping plate. A main shaft of the spherical pump body is connected to a motor shaft through a connecting shaft for power transmission.

In one embodiment, the present disclosure includes a device for manufacturing a frozen edible product, including a cylindrical tank and a dasher disposed within the cylindrical tank and configured to rotate in a direction of rotation on an axis of rotation. A non-circular cylindrical core extends within the core along the axis of rotation. The dasher includes a generally cylindrical frame concentric with the tank and having a plurality of gaps, deflectors extending radially inward relative to the axis of rotation and circumferentially in the direction of rotation from the gaps, and blades extending radially outward from the dasher.

An ice cream manufacturing apparatus, an ice cream manufacturing method, and an ice cream drawing method. An apparatus for manufacturing ice cream includes: a dasher positioned in a cylinder and agitating a liquefied original ice cream liquid and air input into the sealed cylinder; a dasher motor rotating the dasher; a motor RPM control means controlling a frequency of the dasher motor; a dasher motor load measuring means measuring a load of the dasher motor; and a controller determining a rotational speed change time of the dasher motor based on the load measured by the dasher motor load measuring means and controlling the motor RPM control means so as to change the frequency of the dasher motor to a predetermined frequency when the change of the rotational speed of the dasher motor is determined.
