Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy equipment technology, and in particular to a clay mold. Background Technology
[0002] Play-Doh, the precursor to colored clay, has been a favorite toy for children since its invention in 1956. Initially, Play-Doh was only gray and white, but in the following years, it came in a variety of colors and scents. Play-Doh offers a unique style of play; its crafts are simple and convenient. The simultaneous use of both hands during the crafting process can also regulate thinking and balance the development of both hemispheres of the brain. Play-Doh molds are used to shape the clay; by placing the mold on the surface of the clay and pressing it down, the clay inside the mold takes on a specific shape, thus increasing the fun of playing-Doh.
[0003] When using existing clay molds, the clay is usually pressed into shape. However, the clay adheres to the mold due to its stickiness and often needs to be removed manually, which can cause the clay to deform. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the problems existing in the background technology, this utility model proposes a clay mold that is easy to separate.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A clay mold includes an outer shell, a mold housing, and a magnetic ring. The mold housing is disposed within the outer shell and forms a cavity. A second magnet is disposed on the mold housing, and the second magnet penetrates the outer shell and is magnetically connected to the magnetic ring.
[0006] In an optional embodiment, at least one first magnet is embedded on the inner surface of the outer shell, and the at least one first magnet is distributed circumferentially along the outer shell. The first magnet can be magnetically connected to the mold shell.
[0007] In an alternative embodiment, both the outer casing and the magnetic ring are annular.
[0008] In an optional embodiment, a plurality of through holes are provided on the outer casing, through which the second magnet can pass and magnetically connect with the magnetic ring.
[0009] In an alternative embodiment, the back of the first magnet is provided with a handle that passes through the central hole of the magnetic ring and extends to the outside of the magnetic ring.
[0010] In an alternative embodiment, the second magnet is made of a magnetic material that is magnetically connected to the magnetic ring.
[0011] In an alternative embodiment, the mold housing is one of a triangle, rectangle, or pentagon, and the second magnet is disposed at a corner of the mold housing.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0013] This invention sets the mold shell inside the outer shell, so that the cavity of the mold shell and the inner wall of the outer shell together form the mold cavity. By placing the clay in the cavity or directly pressing the cavity onto the clay, the clay is shaped according to the cavity. Furthermore, after the clay is shaped, a magnetic ring pushes a second magnet, thereby causing the outer shell and the mold shell to move relative to each other, thus facilitating the separation of the clay from the cavity.

[0019] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", "front", "back", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention proposes a clay mold, including an outer shell 10, a mold shell 20 and a magnetic ring 22. The mold shell 20 is disposed inside the outer shell 10 and forms a cavity. A second magnet 21 is disposed on the mold shell 20. The second magnet 21 penetrates the outer shell 10 and is magnetically connected to the magnetic ring 22.
[0022] By placing the mold housing 20 inside the outer shell 10, the cavity of the mold housing 20 and the inner wall of the outer shell 10 together form the mold cavity. By placing the clay inside the cavity or directly pressing the cavity onto the clay, the clay is shaped according to the cavity. Furthermore, after the clay is shaped, the magnetic ring 22 pushes the second magnet 21, thereby causing the outer shell 10 and the mold housing 20 to move relative to each other, thus facilitating the separation of the clay from the cavity.
[0023] Furthermore, at least one first magnet 11 is embedded on the inner surface of the outer shell 10. The at least one first magnet 11 is distributed along the circumference of the outer shell 10, and the first magnet 11 can be magnetically connected to the mold shell 20.
[0024] In order to make the mold housing 20 easy to replace and more stably installed inside the outer shell 10, the mold housing 20 is magnetically connected to the first magnet 11, so that the mold housing 20 can be easily replaced.
[0025] In this embodiment, both the outer shell 10 and the magnetic ring 22 are annular. The annular arrangement of the outer shell 10 and the magnetic ring 22 allows the mold housing 20 to accommodate most shapes.
[0026] Furthermore, a plurality of through holes 12 are provided on the outer shell 10, through which the second magnet 21 can pass and magnetically connect with the magnetic ring 22. A handle 23 is provided on the back of the first magnet 11, which passes through the central hole of the magnetic ring 22 and extends to the outside of the magnetic ring 22. The through holes 12 facilitate the second magnet 21 passing through the corresponding holes 12 and connecting with the magnetic ring 22. The second magnet 21 is made of a magnetic material that magnetically connects with the magnetic ring 22. The magnetic connection between the second magnet 21 and the magnetic ring 22 allows the first magnet 11 to move when the second magnet 21 moves. Simultaneously, the handle 23 moves in the opposite direction to the movement of the magnetic ring 22, further facilitating the removal of the clay from the cavity.
[0027] Optionally, the mold housing 20 is triangular, rectangular or pentagonal, and the second magnet 21 is disposed at the corner of the mold housing 20. In this embodiment, the mold housing 20 is triangular and the second magnet 21 is disposed at the corner of the mold housing 20 to facilitate fixing the mold housing 20.
[0028] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "setting" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0029] The above specific embodiments are merely one or more preferred embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
