Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of cooling plastic tableware, in particular to a rapid cooling structure for plastic tableware produced by injection molding. Background Art
[0002] Injection molding plastic tableware requires careful selection of raw materials during the production process. The type, quality, and performance of the raw materials directly impact the quality and performance of the finished product. Appropriate raw materials should be selected based on the intended use and customer requirements. Mold design also directly impacts the shape, size, and precision of the tableware. The mold should possess high precision, high wear resistance, and excellent thermal conductivity to ensure product stability and consistency. Furthermore, the design and operating efficiency of the cooling system directly impact the cooling rate and molding quality of the tableware. Efficient and uniform cooling methods should be employed to ensure adequate solidification of the tableware and minimize deformation and other issues.
[0003] Among them, during the cooling process of existing plastic tableware produced by injection molding, the plastic tableware is directly thrown into cold water for cooling. However, this cooling method will cause the plastic tableware to float on the water surface and needs to be manually retrieved. If the retrieval is not timely, there may be a risk of the plastic tableware falling and colliding with the plastic tableware in the water and being damaged. Therefore, the existing cooling method cannot meet people's usage needs. Utility Model Content
