Abstract: The present invention aims to provide an ice shaving machine that can produce a quantity of shaved ice powder without a fuss and that makes less noise. An ice shaving machine has an ice shaving chamber in which is provided a slit that a shaving blade faces, a rotary vane for rotating ice charged into the ice shaving chamber, a motor mechanism for rotating the rotary vane, a rotating hopper that stores the ice in the ice shaving chamber and coaxially rotates with the rotary vane, and an ice stocker that is provided above the rotating hopper and has openings at the lower and upper ends. The rotating hopper has a diameter that is reduced upwards, and the ice stocker coaxially rotates with the rotary vane and the rotating hopper.

Abstract: A microcomputer (160) is programmed to determine an amount of ice cubes to be sliced on a basis of operation of either one of size button switches (80a˜80c), to determine a mixing time for mixing sliced ice with an amount of beverage on a basis of operation of either one of drink button switches (90a˜90c) and to control each operation of a shaving motor (M1) and a mixing motor (M2) for preparation of an amount of cold beverage.

Abstract: A frozen beverage blender equipped with an ice cutting mechanism including an upright machine frame mounted on a base structure, an upper hood horizontally mounted on the upper portion of the machine frame to be detachable downwardly, the upper hood having a downwardly inclined conical inner surface, a cutting disk coupled at its lower end outer periphery with a lower end outer periphery of the upper hood to be detachable downwardly, the cutting disk having a conical upper surface downwardly inclined from its center and being provided with a cutting blade mounted thereon in such a manner that the edge of the cutting blade is positioned upward at a radial slit formed in the cutting disk, a rotary shaft vertically extending through the center of the upper hood and being supported at its lower end on the head of the cutting disk, and a rotary plate driven by the rotary shaft to rotate along the upper surface of the cutting disk, wherein the upper hood has a cylindrical head portion formed with an inlet opening f
