Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice shaver equipment technology, and in particular to an ice mold for an ice shaver. Background Technology

[0002] An ice shaver is a device used to cut large blocks of ice into fine ice shavings or shaved ice. Ice shavers are typically equipped with ice boxes to prepare ice cubes that fit the ice storage compartment of the shaver. Existing ice boxes are made of rigid plastic, which presents a problem with unmolding; after being removed from the freezer, the ice cubes need to be left to stand for a while before they can be unmolded, resulting in a less than ideal user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the problems existing in related technologies, this utility model provides an ice mold for shaved ice making that is easy to demold, so as to improve the user experience.

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ice mold for an ice shaver:

[0005] The device includes a box body and a lid. The box body comprises a rigid frame and a flexible molding section. The top of the flexible molding section is connected to the rigid frame and has a molding cavity. The lid is detachably mounted on the top of the rigid frame. The flexible molding section is made of food-grade silicone. Both the rigid frame and the lid are made of food-grade plastic. The lid can be placed on the box body to prevent foreign objects from entering the box body. The rigid frame is used to improve the structural strength of the box body and prevent excessive deformation of the flexible molding section. At the same time, it can be fastened to the lid or a suitable ice shaver. The flexible molding section is used for quick demolding by extrusion.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the rigid frame is divided into at least two openings by transverse ribs.

[0007] The soft molding section has multiple independent molding cavities, evenly distributed around the circumference. Each molding cavity corresponds to an opening, with gaps between adjacent cavities. The soft molding section has multiple molding cavities, each capable of holding different colors or types of ice, satisfying multiple user preferences at once. When used with an ice shaver, it can simultaneously output shaved ice of different colors or types with a single ice-filling and shaving operation.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the bottom surface of the transverse rib is provided with an extension protrusion, which is enclosed by the flexible molding portion. The design of the extension protrusion allows for a more secure connection between the flexible molding portion and the rigid frame.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the rigid frame and the flexible molding part are injection molded as a single unit. To ensure a sufficiently strong connection between the flexible molding part and the rigid frame, a downwardly extending annular connecting part is provided on the outer periphery of the bottom surface of the rigid frame. A plurality of injection molding reinforcing grooves are spaced apart on the inner wall of the annular connecting part. An injection molding receiving part is formed between the inner wall of the annular connecting part and the bottom surface of the rigid frame, and the flexible molding part fills the injection molding reinforcing grooves and the injection molding receiving part.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, to further improve the connection between the soft molding part and the rigid frame, a plurality of injection molding reinforcement notches are provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the annular connecting part. The injection molding reinforcement groove and the injection molding reinforcement notch are provided in a one-to-one correspondence, and the injection molding reinforcement notch is connected to the injection molding reinforcement groove.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the rigid frame is provided with an alignment member for engaging with the ice shaver. This alignment member is either an alignment protrusion or an alignment groove. The alignment member ensures that the forming cavity and the ice storage compartment of the ice shaver are correctly aligned when the box is inverted on the ice shaver.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the outer periphery of the lid is provided with a protruding hinged portion. The hinged portion improves the convenience and comfort of the lid-opening operation; when opening the lid, there is no need to pry it open with a hand or tools, the lid can be easily separated from the box body by simply lifting the hinged portion.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] The box body consists of a rigid frame and a flexible molding section. The top of the flexible molding section is connected to the rigid frame, and the flexible molding section has a molding cavity. The rigid frame can improve the structural strength of the box body and prevent the flexible molding section from deforming excessively. At the same time, it can be fastened to the lid or a suitable ice shaver. The flexible molding section is used for quick demolding by squeezing. After the box body is taken out of the refrigerator, there is no need to let it stand. The ice cubes can be quickly demolded by squeezing the bottom periphery of the flexible molding section or pressing the bottom surface of the flexible molding section, providing a good user experience.

[0021] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0022] To address the difficulty in demolding existing ice shavers, this embodiment provides an ice mold for ice shavers that is easy to demold, thereby improving the user experience.

[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an ice mold for an ice shaver:

[0024] The device includes a box body 100 and a lid 200. The box body 100 includes a rigid frame 110 and a flexible molding part 120. The top end of the flexible molding part 120 is connected to the rigid frame 110. The flexible molding part 120 has a molding cavity 121 with an open top. The lid 200 is detachably installed on the top end of the rigid frame 110. The flexible molding part 120 is made of food-grade silicone. Both the rigid frame 110 and the lid 200 are made of food-grade plastic. The lid 200 can cover the box body 100 to prevent foreign objects from entering the box body 100. The rigid frame 110 is used to improve the structural strength of the box body 100 and prevent the flexible molding part 120 from deforming excessively. At the same time, it can be fastened to the lid 200 or a suitable ice shaver. The flexible molding part 120 is used for quick demolding by extrusion.

[0025] In practical applications, the box 100 can be used in conjunction with an ice shaver to provide ice for the ice storage compartment of the ice shaver, or it can be used independently. When only ice is needed, after removing the ice mold from the freezer, without letting it stand, remove the lid 200 and demold the ice by squeezing the bottom periphery of the soft forming part 120 or pressing the bottom surface of the soft forming part 120. When it needs to be used with an ice shaver, after removing the ice mold from the freezer, first remove the lid 200, then invert the box 100 onto the ice storage compartment of the ice shaver, and then feed the ice into the ice storage compartment by squeezing the bottom periphery of the soft forming part 120 or pressing the bottom surface of the soft forming part 120.

[0026] In practical applications, to reduce the difficulty of demolding, the molding cavity 121 will have a draft angle. Specifically, the side walls of the molding cavity 121 will be set as inclined surfaces.

[0027] In this embodiment, the rigid frame 110 is divided into at least two openings by transverse ribs 111; the flexible molding part 120 has multiple independent molding cavities 121, which are evenly distributed around the circumference; each molding cavity 121 corresponds to one of the openings, and a gap is left between adjacent molding cavities 121 to allow for compression deformation. Taking a flexible molding part 120 with two molding cavities 121 as an example, when a user squeezes the two molding cavities 121 inward with one hand, the two molding cavities 121 deform as they move closer together, and the ice cubes inside the molding cavities 121 are squeezed out and demolded. The flexible molding part 120 has multiple molding cavities 121, and different colors or types of ice cubes can be placed in different molding cavities 121, satisfying multiple choices for the user at once. When used with an ice shaver, different colors or types of shaved ice can be output simultaneously in a single ice loading and shaving operation.

[0028] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the transverse rib 111 is provided with an extension protrusion 113, and the flexible molding part 120 wraps around the extension protrusion 113. The design of the extension protrusion 113 enables the flexible molding part 120 to be more firmly connected to the rigid frame 110.

[0029] In this embodiment, the rigid frame 110 and the flexible molding part 120 are injection molded as one piece. To ensure a sufficiently firm connection between the flexible molding part 120 and the rigid frame 110, a downwardly extending annular connecting part is provided on the outer periphery of the bottom surface of the rigid frame 110. A plurality of injection molding reinforcing grooves 115 are provided at intervals on the inner wall of the annular connecting part. An injection molding receiving part 114 is formed between the inner wall of the annular connecting part and the bottom surface of the rigid frame 110. The flexible molding part 120 fills the injection molding reinforcing grooves 115 and the injection molding receiving part 114.

[0030] In this embodiment, to further improve the connection between the soft molding part 120 and the rigid frame 110, a plurality of injection molding reinforcement notches 116 are provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the annular connecting part. The injection molding reinforcement grooves 115 and the injection molding reinforcement notches 116 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence, and the injection molding reinforcement notches 116 are connected to the injection molding reinforcement grooves 115.

[0031] In this embodiment, the rigid frame 110 is provided with an alignment member 112 for engaging with the ice shaver. The ice shaver is correspondingly provided with an outer part that mates with the alignment member 112. The outer part and the alignment member 112 are aligned using a concave-convex structure. One of the alignment member 112 and the outer part is an alignment groove, and the other is an alignment protrusion. The alignment structure design ensures that when the box 100 is inverted on the ice shaver, the forming cavity 121 is correctly aligned with the ice storage compartment of the ice shaver.

[0032] In this embodiment, the outer periphery of the lid 200 is provided with a protruding lifting part 210. The lifting part 210 improves the convenience and comfort of the lifting operation. When lifting the lid, there is no need to pry the lid with your hand or tools. The lid 200 can be easily separated from the box body 100 by lifting the lifting part 210.
