Definitions
- the invention relates to a snow and / or ice shower, which can be used for example in SPA landscapes and can provide a cooling after a sauna and / or steam bath visit.
- a device for producing small pieces of ice is known. It is a Erzeu ⁇ supply chamber provided, in which ice produced. From there, the ice is released into a preparation chamber . From the supply chamber, the ice can be fed to a crusher. This crushes the ice by means of two crushing rollers into small pieces of ice, which are then discharged through a chute.
- WO 2015/097 592 A1 shows a snow-making chamber. Cold air is generated and blown through a pipe into the snowmaking chamber. In this tube, still a Zerstäubungsdüse arranged over the Water is injected under pressure directly into the cold air stream and atomised, whereby the snow formation process begins.
- Such a cooling is carried out today only with cold water, which can be supplied via various Einrich ⁇ tions, such as Kneipp basin, shower buckets, etc. The temperature of this water is always above freezing.
- Another approach to achieve a cooling is known from DE 201 02 686 Ul.
- an accessory for a sauna which comprises a piece ice maker, wherein the pieces of meat produced can be chopped by a rotary crusher, which includes a plurality of prongs, into smaller pieces of ice. These pieces of ice are then offered to a user in shredded form. For example, the user can put in a tub and the crushed pieces of ice are given into the tub.
- the snow and / or ice shower comprises at least a first snow and / or ice making device.
- the at least one first snow and / or Eiserzeugungs comprises an ice maker having an ice releasing section and outputs ⁇ ice over this Eisausgabe Scheme.
- the ice is in particular flake ice.
- the at least one first snow and / or ice making device further comprises a supply and / or reservoir comprising side walls defining an ice confining space.
- the ice dispensing area of the ice machine opens into a feed area of the supply and / or storage container. In this case, ice can be transported directly from the ice machine on the Eisausgabebe ⁇ rich in the supply and / or reservoir.
- the at least one first snow and / or zeal ⁇ generating means also comprises a milling device which is adapted to the ice in the supply and / or storage container, so that ice, which is located in the supply and / or storage container to mince.
- the grinding device comprises a grinder and a grinding screen.
- the grinder is movable relative to the grinding screen (rotatable) arranged and rotatable about an axis of rotation. Ice, which is fed to the Mahlvor ⁇ direction via the supply and / or reservoir, is moved by the rotation of the grinder in the direction of the grinding wire and pressed therethrough, so that it can be dispensed in a removal area.
- This removal region is in particular in the ceiling or ceiling arrangement of the snow and ice shower ⁇ arranged so that the through-pressed by the ice Gravity falls to the ground within the snow and / or ice shower.
- the use of the grinding screen because it achieves optimum consistency of the ice.

- the grinder comprises at least further grinding elements.
- These further grinding elements are also constructed in an angular cross-section and consequently comprise n-edges.
- all grinding elements can comprise the same number of n-edges. It is also possible that the grinding elements un ⁇ differently include many n-edges.
- the grinding elements of the grinder are arranged in the longitudinal direction (along the axis of rotation) of the grinding device next to one another in particular identical performed Benach ⁇ disclosed grinding elements are arranged at a different rotational angle to each other. This results in kei ⁇ ne continuous edge, which runs along a single Gera, which extends over all grinding elements.
- the individual edges of the different grinding elements are therefore arranged in the circumferential direction, ie offset in the direction of rotation to each other. This ensures that an electric motor, which drives the grinder, is loaded evenly and does not suddenly have to press a large amount of ice through the sieve. As a result, the electric motor can be made smaller in terms of its performance data. In addition, a uniform dispensing of corn snow, making the "shower ⁇ feeling" the user is optimal.
- the grinding screen of the grinding device is bent in a part-circular cross-section at least in a portion, the edges of the at least one n-edged grinding element or the edges of all n-edged grinding elements in a rotation of the grinder along the part-circular curved portion of the grinding screen are movable.
