DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. Now, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, a preferred embodiment of the present utility model is described in detail.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the embodiment of the utility model provides an ice-making mold 100, including: an upper cover body 110, a lower cover body 120, a first tube body 130 and a second tube body 140. The upper cover body 110 and the lower cover body 120 can be buckled with each other, and the ends of the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 can be buckled with each other. The outer diameters of the buckled ends of the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 are the same. After the upper cover body 110 and the lower cover body 120 are buckled, a receiving cavity with two ends opened is formed, and the two ends of the receiving cavity form a first tube body 130 and a second tube body 140. A groove 122 and a second groove 124, the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 are accommodated in the accommodating cavity after being buckled, and the first tube body 130 is provided with a first positioning ring 131 corresponding to the first groove 122, and the second tube body 140 is provided with a second positioning ring 141 corresponding to the second groove 124, so that an ice forming area is formed between the outer walls of the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 and the accommodating cavity, wherein a water injection hole 112 connected to the accommodating cavity is provided on the upper cover body 110.

[0029] Specifically, when the ice-making mold 100 is used, the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 are first buckled and connected, and then the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 are placed on the lower cover body 120. When placing, it is necessary to ensure that the first positioning ring 131 is inserted into the first groove 122, and the second positioning ring 141 is inserted into the second groove 124, and finally the upper cover body 110 is buckled on the lower cover body 120. Among them, the outer diameters of the buckled ends of the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 are the same, which is conducive to ensuring that when the ice cubes are formed, the ice cubes can have a smooth transition at the connection between the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140, which is conducive to improving the quality of the ice cubes.

[0030] It can be understood that the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 are buckled together to form a receiving cavity with two ends open. When the first tube 130 and the second tube 140 are buckled together and received in the receiving cavity, an ice cube forming area is formed between the outer wall of the first tube 130 and the second tube 140 and the receiving cavity. At this time, water can be injected through the water injection hole 112 to ensure that the water remains in the ice cube forming area, so as to facilitate the subsequent freezing operation. It should be noted that the shapes of the first tube 130 and the second tube 140 and the shape of the inner circle of the receiving cavity can be flexibly set according to the different shapes of the cups, so as to produce ice cubes that meet the shape requirements.

[0031] The ice-making mold 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can form a receiving cavity with two ends opened by buckling the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120, and then the ends of the first tube 130 and the second tube 140 are buckled together to form the inner core of the ice-making mold 100 as a whole. At this time, the first positioning ring 131 on the first tube 130 corresponds to the first groove 122, and the second positioning ring 141 on the second tube 140 corresponds to the second groove 124, so that the relative position of the first tube 130 and the second tube 140 can be guaranteed. The ice cubes produced are consistent. At the same time, the first positioning ring 131 is snap-fitted and connected with the first groove 122, and the second positioning ring 141 is snap-fitted and connected with the second groove 124 to ensure the sealing of the connection. Similarly, the buckling part of the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 also has a certain sealing property, and the buckling part of the upper cover body 110 and the lower cover body 120 also forms a sealed connection form, so that the ice cube forming area formed between the outer wall of the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 and the accommodating cavity has a stable accommodating performance, and when water is injected through the water injection hole 112, leakage can be avoided, thereby ensuring the quality of the required ice cubes. After the water in the ice cube forming area is frozen and formed, when demolding the ice cube from the ice making mold 100, it is only necessary to remove the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 to expose the ice cube frozen in the outer circle of the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140, and then the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 are respectively pulled out from both ends of the ice cube to obtain a hollow ice cube that fits the shape of a cup. The above form can obtain the required one-piece ice cube, and the whole operation process is simple and convenient, so as to solve the problems of complicated production process and poor user experience in the prior art.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the first tube body 130 includes a first hand-held segment 132, a first molded segment 134 and a second molded segment 136 connected in sequence; the second tube body 140 includes a second hand-held segment 142 and a third molded segment 144 connected in sequence, the second molded segment 136 and the third molded segment 144 can be interlocked, the first positioning ring 131 is located between the first hand-held segment 132 and the first molded segment 134, and the second positioning ring 141 is located between the second hand-held segment 142 and the third molded segment 144.

[0033] Specifically, after the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 are placed in the accommodating cavity, the first hand-held section 132 and the second hand-held section 142 are exposed from the accommodating cavity, and the first molding section 134, the second molding section 136 and the third molding section 144 are located in the accommodating cavity and are respectively used to limit and mold the ice cubes at different positions. Among them, the first positioning ring 131 between the first hand-held section 132 and the first molding section 134, and the second positioning ring 141 between the second hand-held section 142 and the third molding section 144 are respectively used as the connection points of the sealed accommodating cavity to prevent the injected water from leaking from there.

[0034] It should be noted that, in actual application, a first positioning strip 125 is formed on the inner side of the first groove 122, and a second positioning strip 126 is formed on the inner layer of the second groove 124. After the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 are buckled together, the two first positioning strips 125 form a complete ring and fit with the outer ring of the first molding section 134, and the two second positioning strips 126 form a complete ring and fit with the outer ring of the third molding section 144. In this way, the two opposite ends of the ice cube can be limited, and the ice cube can also be sealed, so that the ice cube molding effect is better.

[0035] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the length of the first molding segment 134 is greater than the length of the second molding segment 136, and the first molding segment 134, the second molding segment 136 and the third molding segment 144 are respectively truncated cone-shaped, and the outer diameters of the first molding segment 134 and the second molding segment 136 gradually shrink when extending toward the third molding segment 144, and the shrinkage rate of the second molding segment 136 is greater than the shrinkage rate of the first molding segment 134, and the outer diameter of the third molding segment 144 gradually expands when extending away from the second molding segment 136.

[0036] Specifically, by adopting the above-mentioned form, the outer diameter of the ice cube actually produced will gradually shrink from the bottom to the middle, and then there will be an expansion area in the middle. After a small expansion area in the middle, the outer diameter from the middle to the top will gradually expand again, forming an ice cube in the shape of a wide-mouthed cup. In addition, by adopting the above-mentioned form, it is convenient to demould the produced ice cube, which is conducive to ensuring the yield rate of the ice cube.

[0037] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a ring groove 137 is formed at the end of the second molding section 136 , and a ring protrusion 146 is formed at the end of the third molding section 144 . The ring protrusion 146 can be clamped in the ring groove 137 , and the ring groove 137 and the ring protrusion 146 have thickened areas.

[0038] Specifically, by providing thickened areas at the annular groove 137 and the annular clamping protrusion 146, it is helpful to ensure a stable clamping connection between the annular clamping protrusion 146 and the annular groove 137, wherein the annular groove 137 can be a circle of annular grooves with a semicircular cross section, and the annular clamping protrusion 146 can be a circle of protrusions with a semicircular cross section, so as to facilitate a tight clamping fit between the two. After the ends of the first forming section 134 and the third forming section 144 are clamped, the end faces of the two can fit perfectly, ensuring the quality of the formed ice cubes.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, the first hand-held section 132 is provided with a first anti-slip stripe 1322 , and the second hand-held section 142 is provided with a second anti-slip stripe 1422 .

[0040] By adopting the above-mentioned method, during the demolding process, the hand can increase the friction force at the first hand-held section 132 and the second hand-held section 142, so that the demolding process is smoother.

[0041] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a first extension section 115 corresponding to the first forming section 134, a second extension section 116 corresponding to the second forming section 136, and a third extension section 118 corresponding to the third forming section 144 are respectively formed in the upper cover body 110 and the lower cover body 120, so that the annular wall thickness at each location of the ice cube forming area is the same.

[0042] In order to ensure that the thickness of the ice cubes is uniform at all places, the inner contours of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 need to be consistent with the trends of the first forming section 134, the second forming section 136 and the third forming section 144, that is, the first extension section 115, the second extension section 116 and the third extension section 118 are provided with the same trends. It can be understood that if the thickness of the ice cubes does not need to be uniform at all places, and the inside and outside of the ice cubes have different shapes, the inner contours of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 can also be provided according to actual needs.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, the upper cover 110 is further provided with an air hole 119 , the air hole 119 and the water injection hole 112 are located on the first extension section 115 , and the outer circle of the water injection hole 112 is provided with a flow guide cover 113 connected to the water injection hole 112 .

[0044] Specifically, when the ice-making mold 100 is placed horizontally, water is injected from the water injection hole 112, and the water can flow to other areas to fill the ice cube forming area. In the process of freezing water into ice, expansion occurs. At this time, some of the bubbles that may be in the ice-making mold 100 can be discharged from the water injection port, and some can be discharged from the air vents 119. The air vents 119 are arranged at the end of the first extension section 115, so that the bubbles at the corners can be discharged from the ice-making mold 100, which is beneficial to improving the transparency and ice quality of the ice cubes.

[0045] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a lifting strip 127 is provided at one end of the upper cover body 110 and the lower cover body 120 respectively, and an anti-slip pattern is formed on the lifting strip 127 .

[0046] Specifically, by providing a lifting strip 127 at one end of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120, the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 can be separated directly by tearing the lifting strip 127 during demoulding, which is conducive to improving separation efficiency and reducing operation difficulty. Among them, the anti-slip texture on the lifting strip 127 is conducive to improving friction and ensuring stability during lifting.

[0047] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 A first clamping portion 114 is formed on the upper cover body 110, and a second clamping portion 128 is formed on the lower cover body 120. When the upper cover body 110 and the lower cover body 120 are buckled together, the first clamping portion 114 and the second clamping portion 128 are sealed and clamped. A placement seat 129 is also formed on the lower cover body 120.

[0048] The above-mentioned method is conducive to ensuring the stability and sealing of the buckling of the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 during the ice making process. Among them, the first clamping portion 114 can be in the form of a convex strip folded outward, and the second clamping portion 128 can be in the form of a limiting groove arranged on the inner side, so that the convex strip is inserted into the limiting groove to form the required connection. In addition, a placement seat 129 is also formed on the lower cover 120 to facilitate the horizontal placement of the ice making mold 100, facilitate the water injection operation, and ensure the quality of subsequent ice making.

[0049] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the upper cover body 110, the lower cover body 120, the first tube body 130 and the second tube body 140 are respectively made of silicone.

[0050] Specifically, silicone has good softness and elasticity, making the ice mold 100 easy to bend, fold and take out ice cubes, and not easy to deform or break. Silicone has good high and low temperature resistance, can maintain stable performance in a wide temperature range, is not easy to harden or become brittle, and has stable performance as the ice mold 100. At the same time, silicone material is usually a food-grade safety material, non-toxic and tasteless, does not contain harmful substances, can directly contact food, which is conducive to ensuring health and safety.

[0051] It should be understood that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model rather than to limit it. For those skilled in the art, the technical solutions described in the above embodiments can be modified, or some of the technical features therein can be replaced by equivalents; and all these modifications and replacements should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the present utility model.
