Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food molds, in particular to a mold plate for a chocolate Christmas tree. Background Technique

[0002] Chocolate, also known as cocoa, is a sweet food mainly made of cocoa powder. It not only has a delicate and sweet taste but also emits a strong aroma, and is deeply loved by consumers around the world. Among them, molds can shape a variety of chocolate shapes, such as heart shapes, animal shapes, Christmas tree shapes, etc. These shapes are often more delicate and interesting, and can quickly attract consumers' attention. The delicate appearance and unique shape not only increase the beauty of chocolate but also enhance the fun of the product.

[0003] In the process of making chocolate, hard molds or soft silicone molds are usually used. The melted chocolate liquid is poured into the mold plate and then sent to the refrigerator for cooling and demolding. When using a hard mold plate for demolding, due to its relatively smooth surface and high hardness, the adhesion force between it and the chocolate may be strong. During the cooling and solidification of the chocolate, the contact area between the chocolate and the mold surface increases, and the intermolecular force increases, resulting in difficult demolding. At this time, the producer often knocks on the mold plate to make the chocolate fall off the mold. When the chocolate shape is relatively complex, it is easy to cause damage to the chocolate shape. In addition, compared with hard molds, using soft silicone molds is more convenient for demolding. However, when the chocolate is not completely solidified, its shape and stability are relatively weak. Therefore, the flexible factor of the soft silicone mold easily causes the chocolate to deform during the transfer process from the operating table to the refrigerator. If the operation is improper or the chocolate is extruded by an external force during the transfer process, the chocolate is likely to deform, affecting its final beauty and shape integrity. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a mold plate for a chocolate Christmas tree to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A mold plate for a chocolate Christmas tree, comprising:

[0007] A mold one and a mold two, mold grooves are opened on the opposite surfaces of the mold one and the mold two;

[0008] A mold three, the mold three is installed in the mold groove, and extrusion plates are attached to the side walls on one side of the mold three.

[0009] Preferably, the mold one and the mold two are both made of hard materials, the mold three is made of flexible materials, and the size of the extrusion plate is adapted to the mold three.

[0010] Preferably, the first mold and the second mold are buckled with each other to form a diversion port at the bottom of the third mold inside the mold groove.

[0011] Preferably, the mold groove is divided into two sections, namely a wide opening section and a deep embedded section, and convex blocks are arranged on the wide opening section of the mold groove.

[0012] Preferably, the deep embedded section of the mold groove is adapted to the third mold, and a connection hole is penetrated through the third mold.

[0013] Preferably, the third mold is connected to the convex block through the connection hole and buckled in the mold groove.

[0014] Preferably, through holes are penetrated through both the first mold and the second mold, and sliding rods are slidably connected in the through holes.

[0015] Preferably, the ends of the sliding rods are connected to the extrusion plates, and push plates are fixedly connected to the ends of the sliding rods far away from the extrusion plates.

[0016] Preferably, elastic members are sleeved on the outer surfaces of the sliding rods, and the elastic members are located between the sliding rods and the first mold and the second mold.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] By matching the hard first mold and the second mold with the soft third mold, the chocolate is convenient to demold and not easy to deform. The high hardness and stability of the hard mold help to keep the shape of the chocolate stable during the cooling process, reducing the problem of chocolate deformation caused by mold deformation.

[0019] After the push plate extrudes the sliding rod, the extrusion force is evenly distributed to the extrusion plate, prompting the flexible third mold to separate. The push plate extrudes the sliding rod to evenly distribute the extrusion force to the extrusion plate, which can ensure that the flexible third mold receives uniform force during the demolding process, thus avoiding the problems of mold deformation or chocolate breakage caused by uneven force. This uniform demolding method greatly improves the demolding efficiency and effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] The present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] The following description is used to disclose the present utility model so that those skilled in the art can implement the present utility model. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art can think of other obvious deformations. The basic principles defined in the following description of the present utility model can be used in other implementation schemes, deformation schemes, improvement schemes, equivalent schemes, and other technical schemes without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of the present utility model, the orientations or positions indicated by the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. are based on the orientations or position relationships shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of simplifying the description of the present utility model, rather than indicating or implying that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on the present utility model.

[0030] It can be understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more". That is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, and in other embodiments, the number of the element can be multiple. The term "a" should not be construed as a limitation on the number.

[0031] Embodiment:

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 - 5, A mold plate for a chocolate Christmas tree, including mold one 1, mold two 101 and mold three 2. Mold grooves 102 are provided on the opposite surfaces of mold one 1 and mold two 101. Mold three 2 is installed in mold groove 102, and extrusion plates 203 are fitted on the side walls of one side of mold three 2.

[0033] Among them, mold one 1 and mold two 101 are both made of hard materials, and mold three 2 is made of flexible materials. The size of extrusion plate 203 is adapted to that of mold three 2. The high hardness and stability of the hard mold help to maintain the stable shape of the chocolate during the cooling process, reducing the problem of chocolate deformation caused by mold deformation. The soft mold three 2 can relieve the stress during demolding to a certain extent and further reduce the demolding time.

[0034] It should be noted that when mold one 1 and mold two 101 are buckled together, a diversion port 201 is formed at the bottom of mold three 2 inside mold groove 102. The diversion port 201 can guide the excess chocolate liquid to flow out, preventing it from accumulating inside the mold and forming bubbles or cavities. These bubbles or cavities will seriously affect the appearance and quality of the chocolate and may even cause the chocolate to crack during subsequent processing or storage. The diversion port 201 helps the chocolate liquid to fill mold groove 102 more evenly, making the thickness and shape of the final product more consistent, which helps to improve the overall quality and consistency of the product.

[0035] Furthermore, mold groove 102 is divided into two sections, namely a wide opening section and a deep embedded section. Protrusions 103 are provided on the wide opening section of mold groove 102. The deep embedded section of mold groove 102 is adapted to mold three 2, and connection holes 202 are penetrated through mold three 2. Mold three 2 is connected to protrusion 103 through connection hole 202 and buckled in mold groove 102. Mold three 2 is placed inside mold groove 102 opened in mold one 1 and mold two 101 through protrusion 103, ensuring the stable position of mold three 2 in mold groove 102.

[0036] Even further, through holes 204 are penetrated through both mold one 1 and mold two 101, and sliding rods 205 are slidably connected in through holes 204. The ends of sliding rods 205 are connected to extrusion plates 203, and push plates 207 are fixedly connected to the ends of sliding rods 205 away from extrusion plates 203. Elastic members 206 are sleeved on the outer surfaces of sliding rods 205, and elastic members 206 are located between sliding rods 205 and mold one 1 and mold two 101. Among them, sliding rods 205 are evenly distributed on the back of extrusion plate 203. When push plate 207 drives extrusion plate 203 through sliding rod 205, the extrusion force is kept uniform, avoiding damage to the corners of the chocolate during the extrusion process.

[0037] Through all the above embodiments, the working principle of the present utility model is:

[0038] In use, close the first mold 1 and the second mold 101, place them on the operating table, pour the chocolate liquid into the third mold 2 from the diversion port 201, then place the first mold 1 and the second mold 101 in the refrigerator to cool down. After the cooling is completed, turn over the first mold 1 or the second mold 101 so that it is placed at 180 degrees. When the chocolate is on one side of the first mold 1, press down on the first mold 1. Conversely, squeeze the second mold 101. At this time, the elastic member 206 is squeezed, and the sliding rod 205 transmits the squeezing force to the pressing plate 203, squeezing the third mold 2 out of the mold groove 102. Then separate the third mold 2 from the chocolate. The high hardness and stability of the hard mold help to maintain the stable shape of the chocolate during the cooling process and reduce the problem of chocolate deformation caused by mold deformation. The soft third mold 2 can relieve the stress during demolding to a certain extent and further reduce the demolding time. Furthermore, when the squeezing force on the first mold 1 and the second mold 101 disappears, the elastic member 206 resets the first mold 1 and the second mold 101, thus facilitating the next chocolate demolding operation.

[0039] It should be noted that in this text, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the statement "comprising an..." does not exclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device comprising the said element.

[0040] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are only examples and do not limit the present invention. The object of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and described in the embodiments.
