[0002] Freeze-dried coffee is an instant coffee produced by freezing a liquid product and removing the ice through sublimation. Freeze-dried coffee tablets retain the original flavor of coffee well. Due to their porous internal structure, they dissolve quickly, making them a convenient form of instant coffee with easily controllable concentration. The production and processing of freeze-dried coffee typically involves using a vacuum freeze dryer to freeze-dry the coffee liquid. The resulting freeze-dried tablets have a smooth surface, intact shape, and pure flavor, providing convenience for home, travel, office, and those with limited access to hot water, and possesses broad market prospects.

[0003] In the existing freeze-dried coffee production process, coffee liquid is usually poured into the inside of a freezing mold for storage, and then the freezing mold is placed inside a vacuum freeze dryer for freeze-drying. However, in actual use, it is not possible to quickly demold the finished product. Therefore, we propose a freezing mold for freeze-dried coffee production that facilitates demolding.

[0022] The embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Example:

[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a freeze mold for freeze-dried coffee production that is easy to demold includes a mold body 1. A first handle 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the mold body 1. A connecting adjustment mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the top center of the mold body 1. A fixed partition plate 7 is fixedly connected to the inner center of the mold body 1. A movable mounting plate 4 is symmetrically arranged on the outer side of the surface of the connecting adjustment mechanism 3. A connecting break-up block 5 is equidistantly arranged on one side of the movable mounting plate 4. A first fixed through groove 6 is equidistantly opened at the bottom of the movable mounting plate 4.

[0025] The working principle of the above technical solution is as follows:

[0026] During use, the connecting adjustment mechanism 3 is adjusted so that the movable mounting plate 4 can move in opposite directions simultaneously, allowing the connecting breaking block 5 to move. This allows the connecting breaking block 5 to push and lift the freeze-dried coffee. During the lifting process, the freeze-dried coffee will break, and the broken coffee can move along the inclined surface of the connecting breaking block 5 to the inside of the first fixed through groove 6 without obstructing the movement of the movable mounting plate 4, thus enabling quick demolding and preventing the operator from directly contacting the freeze-dried coffee.

[0027] In another embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a fixed limiting block 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the first handle 2, a fixed slot 9 is provided on the side of the movable mounting plate 4 away from the fixed partition plate 7, and a movable protective mechanism 10 is movably connected to the top of the mold body 1.

[0028] When the mold body 1 is not in use and needs to be stored, the connecting adjustment mechanism 3 is adjusted so that the movable mounting plate 4 and the fixed partition plate 7 fit together. Then, the movable protective mechanism 10 is placed on top of the mold body 1 so that the movable protective mechanism 10 can connect and cooperate with the fixed limit block 8 to limit the connection and protect the inner side of the mold body 1. The operation is convenient.

[0029] In another embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the connecting adjustment mechanism 3 includes a fixed positioning block 11, and a bidirectional threaded rod 12 is movably connected inside the fixed positioning block 11. A first limiting plate 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 12, and a second limiting plate 14 is fixedly connected to the other end of the bidirectional threaded rod 12. A rotating block 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the second limiting plate 14 away from the bidirectional threaded rod 12.

[0030] This allows the rotating block 15 to rotate, driving the second limiting plate 14, the bidirectional threaded rod 12, and the first limiting plate 13 to rotate, thereby enabling the movable mounting plate 4 to move simultaneously in opposite directions, making operation convenient and quick.

[0031] In another embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the outer bottom end of the movable mounting plate 4 is in contact with the inner side of the mold body 1, and the upper part of the movable mounting plate 4 is provided with a thread that is compatible with the bidirectional threaded rod 12.

[0032] This design facilitates the stable movement of the movable mounting plate 4 within the mold body 1 when the bidirectional threaded rod 12 rotates, making operation convenient.

[0033] In another embodiment, such as Figure 4As shown, the movable protective mechanism 10 includes a movable protective plate 16. A second fixed through groove 17 is provided in the middle of the movable protective plate 16. A fixed insert block 18 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable protective plate 16 near the second fixed through groove 17. A second handle 19 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable protective plate 16 near the first handle 2. A connecting mounting block 20 is fixedly connected to the side of the second handle 19 near the fixed limiting block 8. A movable connecting rod 21 is movably connected inside the connecting mounting block 20. A fixed limiting collar 22 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the movable connecting rod 21. A connecting top plate 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable connecting rod 21. A lifting rod 24 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting top plate 23.

[0034] To facilitate the movement of the second handle 19, the movable protective plate 16, and the fixed insert 18, the fixed insert 18 can be inserted into the inside of the fixed slot 9, while the movable protective plate 16 can be fitted onto the outside of the movable mounting plate 4. Before the bottom of the second handle 19 is attached to the top of the first handle 2, the lifting rod 24 is pulled upward, causing the connecting top plate 23, the movable connecting rod 21, and the fixed limiting collar 22 to move, so that the fixed limiting collar 22 is attached to the connecting mounting block 20. When the second handle 19 and the first handle 2 are attached to each other, the lifting rod 24 is released, causing the connecting top plate 23, the movable connecting rod 21, and the fixed limiting collar 22 to reset, so that the bottom end of the movable connecting rod 21 can be inserted into the inside of the fixed limiting block 8, thereby achieving connection and positioning. The operation is convenient and quick.

[0035] In another embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the outer surface of the fixing block 18 is in contact with the inner surface of the fixing slot 9.

[0036] When the movable protective plate 16 is placed on top of the mold body 1, the fixing block 18 can be stably inserted into the inside of the fixing slot 9, making operation convenient.

[0037] In another embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the outer surface of the bottom end of the movable connecting rod 21 is in contact with the inside of the fixed limiting block 8.

[0038] The bottom end of the movable connecting rod 21 can be inserted into the fixed limiting block 8 for connection and limiting, making operation convenient.

[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use, rotating block 15 rotates, causing the second limiting plate 14, bidirectional threaded rod 12, and first limiting plate 13 to rotate. This allows the movable mounting plate 4 to move in opposite directions simultaneously, enabling the connecting crushing block 5 to move. The connecting crushing block 5 then pushes and lifts the freeze-dried coffee. During this lifting process, the freeze-dried coffee breaks, and the broken coffee pieces move along the inclined surface of the connecting crushing block 5 to the inner side of the first fixed through groove 6, without obstructing the movement of the movable mounting plate 4. This allows for rapid demolding and avoids direct contact between the operator and the freeze-dried coffee. When the mold body 1 is not in use and needs to be stored, the second handle 19 and the movable... The movable protective plate 16 and the fixed insert 18 are moved so that the fixed insert 18 can be inserted into the inside of the fixed slot 9, and the movable protective plate 16 can be fitted onto the outside of the movable mounting plate 4. Then, before the bottom of the second handle 19 is attached to the top of the first handle 2, the lifting rod 24 is pulled upward, which drives the connecting top plate 23, the movable connecting rod 21 and the fixed limiting collar 22 to move, so that the fixed limiting collar 22 is attached to the connecting mounting block 20. When the second handle 19 is attached to the first handle 2, the lifting rod 24 is released, which drives the connecting top plate 23, the movable connecting rod 21 and the fixed limiting collar 22 to reset, so that the bottom end of the movable connecting rod 21 can be inserted into the inside of the fixed limiting block 8, thereby connecting and positioning. The operation is convenient and quick.

[0040] The above embodiments merely illustrate specific implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
