[0020] Please see Figs. 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of an edible cup forming mold, including a lower mold 1 and an upper mold 2. The lower mold 1 includes a first mold 101 and a second mold 102 arranged symmetrically at the center. Both the first mold 101 and the second mold 102 have cavities 103 on opposite sides. The two cavities 103 are spliced ​​together to form a frustum-shaped cavity with an open top. The bottom ends of the first mold 101 and the second mold 102 are arranged in a circular array with the center of the forming cavity 3 as the center, and a plurality of first mounting holes 104 for mounting heating elements are arranged in a circular array around the cavity 103, so that the heating is more uniform and efficient.

[0021] The bottom of the first mold 101 and the second mold 102 are provided with mounting grooves 105, which facilitates the installation of heating elements inside the first mounting hole 104.

[0022] The upper mold 2 includes a mold core 201 inserted into the lower mold 1 and a limiting plate 202 abutting against the top of the lower mold 1. The mold core 201 is inserted into the cavity 103 to form a molding cavity 3. The upper mold 2 is provided with a vent 204 that communicates with the inside of the molding cavity 3. On the one hand, it can vent air during baking, and on the other hand, it can accommodate the excess dough that is squeezed out. When the mold is closed, the limiting plate 202 abutting against the top of the lower mold 1 can play a mechanical limiting role, so that the insertion depth of the mold core 201 is fixed, thereby making the thickness of the molded cup wall uniform.

[0023] In this embodiment, a second mounting hole 203 for mounting heating elements is provided at the center of the upper mold 2. The lower mold 1 and the upper mold 2 are heated simultaneously to improve the molding rate.

[0024] A mold-locking mechanism 4 is provided between the lower mold 1 and the upper mold 2. The mold-locking mechanism 4 includes several positioning rods 401 fixed to the bottom end of the limiting plate 202, insertion rods 402 and insertion slots 403 provided on opposite sides of the first mold 101 and the second mold 102. The insertion rods 402 and insertion slots 403 are adapted to each other. When the first mold 101 and the second mold 102 are closed, the insertion rods 402 are inserted into the insertion slots 403. The ends of the insertion rods 402 and the insertion slots 403 are provided with positioning holes 404 adapted to the positioning rods 401. In this embodiment, the positioning rods 401 are provided with a total of Four rods are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the limiting plate 202. The insertion rods 402 and insertion slots 403 are respectively set on the radial sides of the cavity 103. The insertion rods 402 of the first mold 101 and the second mold 102 are respectively inserted into the insertion slots 403 of the other. The positioning rod 401 is then inserted downward into the positioning holes 404 on the insertion rods 402 and insertion slots 403 to achieve guidance and mold locking. In this embodiment, the side of the first mold 101 and the second mold 102 away from the insertion slots 403 is also provided with sliding holes that are compatible with the positioning rods 401, further improving the stability of the upper mold 2 movement.

[0025] Furthermore, the bottom end of the positioning rod 401 is provided with a guide section 4011 whose size gradually decreases from top to bottom, so as to facilitate the insertion of the positioning rod 401 into the positioning hole 404.

[0026] Working principle: Heating elements are installed inside the second mounting hole 203 and the first mounting hole 104. In use, the first mold 101 and the second mold 102 are driven to move towards each other to close the mold. The plug rod 402 is inserted into the plug groove 403. The divided dough is put into the cavity 103. Then the upper mold 2 is driven to descend. The positioning rod 401 is inserted into the positioning hole 404. On the one hand, it guides the upper mold 2 and improves the stability and position accuracy of the descent of the upper mold 2. On the other hand, it can lock the position of the first mold 101 and the second mold 102. When the limiting plate 202 abuts against the top of the lower mold 1, the mold core 201 squeezes the dough until it fills the molding cavity 3. The excess dough can be squeezed into the vent 204. Then, it is heated and baked by the heating elements. After molding, the upper mold 2 is driven to move upward. The first mold 101 and the second mold 102 separate to the sides and the molded cup can be taken out.

[0027] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
