Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of salt handicrafts, and in particular to a heating and shaping device for salt handicrafts. Background Technology

[0002] With social development, the market demand for handicrafts is increasing. Salt sculpture, as a new popular handicraft, is becoming more and more popular in the increasingly commercialized modern society. The current salt sculpture making process involves kneading prepared salt into a ball, placing it into a corresponding mold, heating it to set its shape, and then forming the salt sculpture.

[0003] The existing methods for heating and shaping salt crafts have the following problems: When the salt mass is placed into the mold for heating, the mold has a certain thickness and the heating range may be limited, resulting in low efficiency in heating and shaping the salt crafts, which in turn delays the production period and affects the quality of the salt crafts. Secondly, when heating and shaping the salt sculpture mold, the limited heating area and space of the salt sculpture mold make it inconvenient to use salt sculpture molds of different sizes. It also makes the stability of the mold poor during heating, which can lead to damage to the salt sculpture due to accidental tipping of the mold.

[0004] To address this, a heating and shaping device for salt crafts is proposed, which has the advantages of uniform heating by steam method and is suitable for clamping salt sculpture molds of different sizes and shapes, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background technology. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a heating and shaping device for salt crafts.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a heating and shaping device for salt crafts, comprising a base box and a heating box. The heating box is fixed on the top surface of the base box, and a door is hinged to the opening of the heating box. Steam chambers are respectively opened on the left and right sides inside the base box, and an electric heating tube is installed in each steam chamber. Two steam conveying shells are arranged on the top surface of the base box corresponding to the steam chambers, and the two steam conveying shells are distributed on the left and right sides of the heating box. Several through holes are opened between the two steam conveying shells and the heating box. A mounting platform is provided on the lower inner side of the heating box, and two clamps are symmetrically arranged on the mounting platform. A transmission rod is fixed at the bottom of the mounting platform. A transmission cavity is opened in the middle of the base box, and a motor is fixed on the inner wall of the transmission cavity. A transmission belt is provided at the output end of the motor and wound around the transmission rod. An exhaust pipe is connected to the top surface of the heating box.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: the side of the mounting platform is threaded with a screw, and the surface of the screw is threaded with a threaded sleeve. The upper end of the threaded sleeve is fixedly connected to the clamp by a screw. The top surface of the mounting platform is provided with a strip-shaped opening corresponding to the threaded sleeve. Edge clamps are respectively hinged to the left and right sides of the clamp. An inclined block is welded to the edge of the surface of the clamp, and the surface of the inclined block is threaded with a plum blossom knob that abuts against the edge clamp.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: the lower end of the transmission rod extends into the transmission cavity, and the transmission rod is rotatably connected to the bottom of the heating box through a sealed bearing.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the steam conveying shell is closely connected to the side of the heating box, and the several through holes between the steam conveying shell and the heating box are arranged in a rectangular array.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: the lower surface of the heating box is connected to a drain nozzle, and a valve is installed on the surface of the drain nozzle.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: liquid level gauges are installed on the left and right sides of the bottom box corresponding to the steam chamber, and a water inlet is provided on the upper surface of the bottom box corresponding to the steam chamber.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] In this invention, by activating the electric heating tube in the steam chamber, high-temperature steam generated by heating the water in the steam chamber enters the steam conveying shell. Then, the steam conveying shells located on the left and right sides of the heating box introduce the high-temperature steam into the heating box through several through holes. At this time, as the transmission belt driven by the motor output rotates, the mounting platform drives the salt sculpture mold on it to rotate, increasing the contact area and fullness between the high-temperature steam and the salt sculpture mold. The two-way convection heating and shaping method of steam maximizes the uniformity of heating and shaping of the salt crafts in the salt sculpture mold, which is conducive to accelerating the salt sculpture production rate and improving quality.

[0014] In this invention, two clamps are symmetrically arranged on the mounting platform. By rotating the threaded screw connected to the side of the mounting platform, the threaded sleeve moves along the surface of the screw, causing the clamps to move synchronously. During the phase where the two clamps move towards each other, they clamp the salt sculpture mold on the mounting platform, maintaining the stability of the salt sculpture mold during the heating and shaping phase. At the same time, by rotating the plum blossom knob on the tilting block, the plum blossom knob pushes the edge clamp plate hinged to the side of the clamp to tilt. This structure is suitable for clamping salt sculpture molds of different sizes and shapes, preventing damage to the salt sculpture caused by accidental tipping. Attached Figure Description

When fixing the salt sculpture mold, rotate the screw 17 threaded to the side of the mounting platform 16, causing the threaded sleeve 19 to move along the surface of the screw 17, which in turn moves the clamps 18 synchronously. This allows the two clamps 18 to move towards each other and clamp the salt sculpture mold on the mounting platform 16. Then, rotate the plum blossom knob 23 on the tilting block 22, causing the plum blossom knob 23 to push the edge clamping plate 21, which is hinged to the side of the clamps 18, to tilt. This allows the edge clamping plate 21 to fit tightly against the side of the salt sculpture mold, maintaining the salt sculpture mold in place. To ensure stability during the heating and shaping stage, when steam heating and shaping is used, the electric heating tube 15 in the steam chamber 13 is activated, causing the high-temperature steam generated by heating the water in the steam chamber 13 to enter the steam conveying shell 3. Then, the steam conveying shells 3 located on the left and right sides of the heating box 2 introduce the high-temperature steam into the heating box 2 through several through holes 14. At this time, as the transmission belt 12 and transmission rod 10 wound around the output end of the motor 11 rotate, the mounting platform 16 drives the salt sculpture mold on it to rotate, increasing the contact area and fullness between the high-temperature steam and the salt sculpture mold. After the steam heating is completed for 5-10 minutes, the heating box 2 is opened and the salt sculpture mold is removed.
