Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigeration products, in particular to an ice making box. Background Art
[0002] The design of modern ice boxes combines practicality and innovative technology, aiming to provide efficient and convenient ice making and storage solutions for home and commercial use. Such ice boxes are usually made of high-quality food-grade plastic and other materials to ensure safety in contact with food, while being resistant to low temperatures and not easy to deform. They are usually equipped with ice trays with several small grooves evenly distributed on the ice trays for ice forming.
[0003] However, after the ice tray is frozen, it needs to be demolded before the ice cubes can be stored in an ice box. However, traditional ice trays have a technical problem of being difficult to demold. In order to solve this technical problem, existing ice trays usually use soft materials at the bottom of the ice tray. When taking out the ice cubes, the ice tray is deformed by manual pressing to let the ice cubes fall out. However, manual pressing of the ice can easily cause the ice cubes to be contaminated by human hands and are not suitable for consumption. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides an ice making box, comprising:
[0005] Box body: an ice tray is placed in the box body, a demoulding protrusion is provided in the box body, a demoulding portion is provided on the ice tray, and when the ice tray is inverted, the demoulding portion presses against the demoulding protrusion;
[0006] Box cover: installed on the box body, used for sealing the box body; a pressing piece is provided on the inner side of the box cover, and the pressing piece is connected to a pressing handle through the box cover, and the pressing handle drives the pressing piece to rotate, and the pressing piece can apply pressing force to the inverted ice tray.
[0007] The technical principle of the utility model is that when demolding is required, the ice tray is inverted on the demolding protrusion so that there is space on the lower side of the ice tray, and then the box lid is closed, and the pressing handle is turned to allow the pressing part to press the back of the ice tray, so that the ice tray is deformed, the ice cubes are demolded, and fall to the bottom of the box body due to their own weight for storage.
[0008] At the same time, the pressing handle can be used as a handle when not being pressed, making it easy to carry the ice box.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: by cooperating the demoulding protrusion with the ice tray and using the pressing handle to drive the pressing part to press the ice tray, it solves the technical problem that the ice cubes in the existing ice making box are easily touched when demoulding the ice cubes, thereby causing the ice cubes to be contaminated.
[0010] Furthermore, the demoulding protrusions are provided with two and are centrally symmetrical to each other, and the two demoulding protrusions are not axially symmetrical;
[0011] The demoulding parts are also provided with two and are centrally symmetrical to each other, and the two demoulding parts are not axially symmetrical to each other.
[0012] Furthermore, the ice tray is provided with two notches, and the two notches are respectively arranged symmetrically with the two demoulding parts; when the ice tray is placed upright, the two notches are respectively stuck on the two demoulding protrusions.
[0013] Furthermore, when the ice tray is placed upright, a plurality of ice trays can be stacked in the box body to freeze and make ice at the same time.
[0014] Furthermore, the push handle is door-shaped, and hinge shafts are provided at both ends of the push handle to be hingedly connected to the box cover.
[0015] Furthermore, a reinforcing rib is provided on the back of the ice tray corresponding to the pressing piece.
[0016] The strength of the pressed part of the ice tray is strengthened by reinforcing ribs, so that the ribs can evenly transfer the pressure to all parts of the ice tray, ensuring that all ice cubes can be demoulded smoothly.
[0017] Furthermore, the pressing member is directly fixed at one end of the pressing handle.
[0018] Furthermore, a door-shaped depression is provided on the box cover, and the pressing handle can be stuck in the door-shaped depression.
[0019] By providing a recess to accommodate the pressing handle, there is no protrusion on the upper surface of the box cover, so that the height of the entire ice box is lower, which is convenient for storage in the refrigerator.
[0020] Furthermore, a plurality of ice trays are stacked in the box body, the front of the ice tray is provided with a convex edge, and the back of the ice tray is provided with supporting ribs corresponding to the convex edge, and the convex edge of the ice tray is closely attached to the supporting ribs of the ice tray above it.
[0021] Ensure that when freezing and making ice, adjacent ice cubes will not come into direct contact with each other, thus destroying the shape of the ice cubes.
[0022] Furthermore, clamping blocks are provided on both sides of the box body, and clamping rings are provided on both sides of the box cover, and the clamping rings are clamped on the clamping blocks to fix the box cover on the box body.
[0023] The box body and the box cover are ensured to be tightly connected, and the connection structure of the clamp block and the clamp ring has a good load-bearing effect, which can ensure that the box body and the box cover can still be tightly connected when the pressing handle is pressed.
[0024] Furthermore, the pressing piece is hingedly connected to one end of the pressing handle, and a blocking protrusion is provided on one side of the door-shaped recess near the connection between the pressing handle and the pressing piece, and the blocking protrusion limits the position of the pressing piece.
[0025] The pressing piece and the pressing handle are arranged as a hinged structure, and even if the box is filled with ice trays or ice cubes, the pressing handle can be used normally as a handle and can be hidden in the door-shaped recess, while the blocking protrusion ensures that the pressing piece can press the ice tray normally.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0035] The technical solution of the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0036] Example 1
[0037] like Figure 1-3 The ice making box shown includes a box body 100 and a box cover 200, wherein a plurality of ice trays 300 are stacked in the box body 100, and a demoulding protrusion 110 is provided in the box body 100, and two demoulding protrusions 110 are provided and are centrally symmetrical to each other, and the two demoulding protrusions 110 are not axially symmetrical; a demoulding portion 310 is provided on the ice tray 300, and two demoulding portions 310 are also provided and are centrally symmetrical to each other, and the two demoulding portions 310 are not axially symmetrical to each other, so that when the ice tray 300 is inverted, the demoulding portion 310 just presses on the demoulding protrusion 110, and specifically, a protruding column 111 is provided on the top of the demoulding protrusion 110, and a matching groove 311 is provided on the demoulding portion 310, and the matching groove 311 clamps the protruding column 111 to fix it, thereby ensuring that the ice tray 300 can be stably fixed on the demoulding protrusion 110.
[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, the ice tray 300 is provided with two notches 320 , and the two notches 320 are respectively arranged axially symmetrically with the two demoulding portions 310 ; when the ice tray 300 is placed upright, the two notches 320 are respectively stuck on the two demoulding protrusions 110 , and then a plurality of ice trays 300 can be stored in the box body 100 .
[0039] like Figure 1 , 4 -5, the box cover 200 is installed on the box body 100, and is used for sealing the box body 100 to ensure the cleanliness of the ice cubes; a pressing piece 211 is provided on the inner side of the box cover 200, and the pressing piece 211 is transmitted through the box cover 200 and is connected to a pressing handle 210. Specifically, the pressing handle 210 is in the shape of a door, and hinge shafts 212 are provided at both ends of the pressing handle 210 to be hingedly connected to the box cover 200. The pressing piece 211 is directly integrally formed at one end of the pressing handle 210, and then the rotation of the pressing handle 210 can drive the pressing piece 211 to rotate, and it is best when the pressing handle 210 and the pressing piece 211 are perpendicular to each other at 90°.
[0040] like Figure 4-6 As shown, the box cover 200 is integrally formed with a door-shaped recess 201, and the push handle 210 can be stuck in the door-shaped recess 201. The angle between the push member 211 and the push handle 210 should be toward the door-shaped recess 201 to ensure that the push handle 210 is stuck in the door-shaped recess 201. Before use, adjust the push handle 210 to a vertical position as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the pressing handle 210 is then rotated toward the door-shaped recess 201, so that the pressing handle 210 drives the pressing member 211 to rotate, and then the pressing member 211 applies a pressing force to the inverted ice tray 300 to realize demolding of the ice cubes.
[0041] like Figure 3 , 5 As shown, a reinforcing rib 330 is integrally formed on the back of the ice tray 300 corresponding to the pressing piece 211 , so as to increase the strength of the ice tray 300 .
[0042] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the front of the ice tray 300 is integrally formed with a convex edge 340 , and the back of the ice tray 300 is integrally formed with a supporting rib 350 corresponding to the convex edge 340 . The convex edge 340 of the ice tray 300 is closely attached to the supporting rib 350 of the ice tray 300 above it, thereby achieving a sequential supporting function.
[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, blocks 120 are integrally formed on both sides of the box body 100, and snap rings 220 are hinged on both sides of the box cover 200. The snap rings 220 are clamped on the blocks 120 to fix the box cover 200 on the box body 100, which facilitates the opening and closing of the box cover 200 and has an excellent load-bearing effect.
[0044] Example 2
[0045] like Figure 7-8 As shown, the pressing member 211 is hingedly connected to one end of the pressing handle 210, and a blocking protrusion 213 is integrally formed on one side of the depression near the door-shaped depression 201 at the connection between the pressing handle 210 and the pressing member 211. The blocking protrusion 213 limits the position of the pressing member 211. Figure 7 and Figure 4 It can be seen that the pressing member 211 in Example 1 will limit the number of ice trays 300 placed. If too many ice trays 300 are placed, the pressing handle 210 cannot be retracted into the door-shaped recess 201. In Example 2, a large number of ice trays 300 can still be placed when the pressing handle 210 is retracted into the door-shaped recess 201.
[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
