[0002] In order to prepare ice cubes with regular and uniform shapes, ice-making molds are generally used for making ice; water is injected into the mold cavity of the ice-making mold, and then the ice-making mold is placed at a low temperature so that the water freezes and forms ice cubes.

[0003] The Chinese patent with the publication number CN213841431U discloses a new type of ice-making mold, including a first mold part and a second mold part, wherein the first mold part and the second mold part are detachably assembled; the first mold part is provided with at least one first cavity, and the second mold part is provided with at least one second cavity corresponding thereto, and when the first mold part and the second mold part are assembled, the first cavity and the second cavity are matched to form an ice-making cavity; each of the ice-making cavities is provided with a funnel-shaped water injection part, the tip of the water injection part corresponds to the top of the ice-making cavity, and the top of the ice-making cavity is provided with an exhaust hole; the first mold part and the second mold part are assembled in an upper and lower sleeve-type manner. When the above-mentioned ice-making mold is in use, the first cavity and the second cavity are prone to insufficient closure, resulting in reduced ice-making efficiency; and the molded ice cubes will have obvious mold lines, which affect the appearance of the molded ice cubes.

[0004] Therefore, the prior art still needs to be improved and developed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide an ice making mold in view of the defects and shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0007] The utility model provides an ice-making mold, comprising an upper mold plate and a shell, wherein the upper mold plate is detachably covered on the shell; a lower mold is arranged inside the shell, a second cavity is formed on the lower mold, and a through hole is arranged on the top surface of the shell for the lower mold to move up and down; a first cavity corresponding to the second cavity is arranged on the upper mold plate, and the first cavity and the second cavity are matched to form an ice-making cavity; a supporting part is arranged below the lower mold, and an elastic part is arranged between the lower mold and the supporting part; when the upper mold plate is not covered on the shell, the upper end of the lower mold passes through the through hole under the action of the elastic part and extends out of the top surface of the shell.

[0008] Through the above-mentioned structural arrangement, when the upper template is covered on the shell, the bottom surface of the upper template will press against the lower mold, driving the lower mold to move downward in the through hole to compress the elastic member. Under the elastic action of the elastic member, the lower mold is tightly attached to the bottom surface of the upper template, so that the first cavity and the second cavity are tightly closed, effectively ensuring the refrigeration effect, and preventing the molded ice cubes from having obvious mold marks, making the molded ice cubes more beautiful.

[0009] It is understandable that when the upper template is covered on the shell, the first cavity and the second cavity are molded opposite to each other to match into an ice-making cavity. Covering here means that the upper template is covered on the shell to form a stable structure, and the two are in direct contact; after ice making is completed, the upper template can be separated from the shell so that the two are not in contact. The upper template can be detachably covered on the shell. Those skilled in the art can set the two to be buckled or screwed up and down according to actual needs; or the upper template can be fixed, and a driving mechanism is used to connect the shell to drive the shell to move closer to the upper template so that the upper template is covered on the shell, etc., and the utility model does not impose any restrictions.

[0010] According to the above solution, the elastic member is a spring, a spring sheet or a spring washer, and the number of the elastic member is one or more. The type and number of the elastic member can be selected and set according to actual needs.

[0011] According to the above solution, a limit ring communicating with the through hole is fixedly connected below the through hole, and a limit portion contacting the bottom surface of the limit ring is provided on the outer wall of the lower mold. The cooperation between the limit portion and the limit ring limits the upward movement range of the lower mold, preventing the lower mold from directly detaching from the housing when being lifted by the elastic member.

[0012] According to the above scheme, the elastic member is a spring, the supporting part includes a supporting frame and a mounting column, the mounting column is fixed on the supporting frame, the spring is sleeved on the mounting column, and the two ends of the spring respectively abut the bottom center position of the lower mold and the supporting frame.

[0013] According to the above solution, the limiting part includes a plurality of protrusions and a gasket, wherein the plurality of protrusions are arranged on the outer wall of the lower mold, and the gasket is fixed on the top surface of the plurality of protrusions. Through the above structural arrangement, when the pressure of the upper mold plate on the lower mold is removed, the elastic member is reset from the compressed state, driving the lower mold to move upward until the gasket contacts the bottom surface of the limiting ring, and the gasket cooperates with the limiting ring to play a limiting role.

[0014] According to the above solution, the elastic member is disposed between the plurality of protrusions and the support portion. Through the above structural arrangement, the plurality of elastic members are disposed under the protrusions, so that the force on the lower mold is more uniform.

[0015] According to the above scheme, the elastic member is a spring, the supporting part includes a supporting frame and a plurality of columns, the plurality of columns are fixed on the supporting frame and are correspondingly arranged below the plurality of protrusions, the spring is sleeved on the columns, and the two ends of the spring respectively abut the protrusions and the columns.

[0016] By providing a plurality of columns corresponding to the lower parts of the plurality of protrusions, the columns can prevent the spring from deforming and bending when subjected to force, thereby ensuring that the force direction of the lower mold does not change, and effectively preventing the lower mold from tilting during the up and down movement, thereby ensuring that the first cavity and the second cavity are tightly closed.

[0017] According to the above scheme, a limiting ring connected to the through hole is fixedly connected below the through hole, a plurality of guide parts are provided on the outer wall of the lower mold, a guide hole corresponding to the guide part is provided on the limiting ring, and the guide part is slidably arranged in the guide hole up and down.

[0018] The cooperation between the guide part and the guide hole can limit the lower mold to move up and down axially, effectively preventing the lower mold from tilting during the up and down movement, thereby ensuring that the first cavity and the second cavity are tightly closed. It can be understood that the guide part can be set as a guide column, a guide fin, etc. according to actual needs, and the utility model does not limit it.

[0019] According to the above solution, the upper outer wall of the lower mold is provided with a boss, and the inner wall of the through hole is provided with a groove that cooperates with the boss. The cooperation between the boss and the groove limits the downward movement range of the lower mold.

[0020] According to the above solution, the upper template is connected to the refrigeration pipe; the bottom surface of the upper template presses against the lower mold until the boss falls into the groove, and the bottom surface of the upper template is in close contact with the top surface of the shell. Through the above structural setting, the cooling capacity of the upper template can be transferred to the lower mold through the shell, which is conducive to improving the refrigeration efficiency.

[0021] It is understandable that in order to add water for ice making into the ice-making cavity, technicians in this field can provide water injection holes and exhaust holes connected to the ice-making cavity on the lower mold or the upper mold according to actual needs; the ice-making mold can also be used in a spray ice-making machine, and a through hole is opened at the bottom of the lower mold, and water is sprayed into the ice-making cavity from the through hole at the bottom of the lower mold. The utility model is not limited to this.

[0037] The upper end of the lower mold 3 passes through the through hole 21 and extends out of the top surface of the housing 2 under the action of the elastic member 5 .

[0038] Through the above-mentioned structural arrangement, when the upper template 1 is covered on the shell 2, the bottom surface of the upper template 1 will press against the lower mold 3, driving the lower mold 3 to move downward in the through hole 21 to compress the elastic member 5. Under the elastic action of the elastic member 5, the lower mold 3 is tightly attached to the bottom surface of the upper template 1, so that the first cavity 41 and the second cavity 42 are tightly closed, effectively ensuring the refrigeration effect, and making the molded ice cubes have no obvious mold marks, making the molded ice cubes more beautiful.

[0039] Furthermore, a limiting ring 22 in communication with the through hole 21 is fixedly connected below the through hole 21, and a limiting portion is provided on the outer wall of the lower mold 3 in contact with the bottom surface of the limiting ring 22. The cooperation between the limiting portion and the limiting ring 22 limits the upward movement range of the lower mold 3, thereby preventing the lower mold 3 from being directly separated from the housing 2 when being lifted by the elastic member 5.

Through the above-mentioned structural arrangement, when the pressure of the upper mold plate 1 on the lower mold 3 is removed, the elastic member 5 is reset from the compressed state, driving the lower mold 3 to move upward until the gasket 311 contacts the bottom surface of the limiting ring 22, and the gasket 311 cooperates with the limiting ring 22 to play a limiting role.

[0042] Furthermore, the upper outer wall of the lower mold 3 is provided with a boss 32, and the inner wall of the through hole 21 is provided with a groove 211 that cooperates with the boss 32.
