Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of molds, and more particularly to a clay mold. Background Technology
[0002] Clay (including super light clay, modeling clay, playdough, pottery clay, rice clay, etc.) is a new type of environmentally friendly and non-toxic craft material. Its good softness, high plasticity, and ability to be freely mixed with different colors have made it popular among craft enthusiasts. With the rise of DIY craft activities, the application of clay is constantly expanding, evolving from an initial children's toy into a multifunctional craft material.
[0003] Nowadays, clay is often used with clay molds to create various exquisite shapes, such as fruit shapes, vegetable shapes, food shapes, and vehicle shapes, increasing playability. However, when making shapes with clay, if the clay is too sticky, too wet, or too dry, it can be difficult to remove, resulting in failed clay modeling and reducing the playability of clay.
[0004] Therefore, given the current state of the existing technology, developing a clay mold is an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art in that the clay is difficult to remove from the mold, the present invention provides a clay mold that can easily remove the clay.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is: a clay mold, including a mold cavity, wherein the mold cavity is provided with an air inlet.
[0007] Furthermore, the air inlet is used in conjunction with the air intake device.
[0008] Furthermore, a connecting plate is provided at the edge of the mold cavity, and the connecting plate is provided with a buffer protrusion on the side away from the mold cavity, and there are n buffer protrusions.
[0009] Furthermore, the connecting plate is provided with n reinforcing ribs, and the edge of the connecting plate is provided with a reinforcing rib fence.
[0010] Furthermore, one end of the reinforcing rib is connected to the mold cavity, and the other end of the reinforcing rib is connected to the reinforcing rib fence.
[0011] Furthermore, a baffle is provided around the air inlet, and an inner cavity is provided between the baffle and the air inlet.
[0012] Furthermore, the inner wall of the mold cavity is provided with a shaped groove.
[0013] Furthermore, the air inlet is provided with n.
[0014] Furthermore, the mold cavity, connecting plate, reinforcing ribs, and reinforcing rib fence are integrally formed.
[0015] Furthermore, the buffer protrusion is made of elastic material, and the air intake is provided by an air intake device or by manual blowing. The air intake device can be a manual air intake device or an electric air intake device. The manual air intake device includes a push rod and an air cylinder. The push rod includes a push handle and a rubber pad. One end of the air cylinder is provided with an air nozzle. The air nozzle can be circular, trumpet-shaped, conical, etc. The air nozzle has an air passage and is adapted to the air intake. The outer wall of the air cylinder is adapted to the inner cavity.
[0016] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0017] 1. This solution provides a clay mold that is equipped with an air inlet and an air intake device. The cross-section of the air inlet can be circular, square, triangular, spindle-shaped, etc. The air intake device can be manually operated or electrically operated, or it can be operated by blowing air manually. By using the air inlet and air intake device together, the toy clay and kinetic sand in the mold cavity can be blown out, avoiding the need to manually remove the toy clay and kinetic sand and thus destroying the shape, thereby improving the playability of clay toys.
[0018] 2. In this utility model, a connecting plate is provided at the edge of the mold cavity. The connecting plate is provided with a buffer protrusion on the side away from the mold cavity. There are n buffer protrusions, preferably 4. By setting the buffer protrusions, it is convenient to pick up the mold cavity after it is placed on the table, and avoids the connecting plate from sticking to the table.
