Abstract: A removeable collection tray is configured for use with a frozen drink maker having a housing and an evaporator disposed in the housing. The collection tray includes a collection chamber for receiving liquid and a handle for removing the tray from the housing. The collection chamber is configured to be inserted within a slot in the housing adjacent the evaporator. When inserted into the slot, the collection chamber is vertically spaced from a bottom side of housing.

Abstract: A frozen drink maker is described that includes a housing, a mixing vessel to mix a drink product, and a flexible seal. The housing includes an upper housing section and a lever moveable relative to the upper housing section between a coupled position and an uncoupled position. The flexible seal is between the upper housing section and the mixing vessel. The lever couples the mixing vessel to the upper housing section when in the coupled position and uncouples the mixing vessel from the upper housing section when in the uncoupled position. When the lever is in the coupled position, the mixing vessel is sealed against the upper housing section by the flexible seal.
