Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of freezing technology, and in particular to a freezing device for zongzi leaves. Background Technology
[0002] There are many varieties of bamboo leaves used for making zongzi (sticky rice dumplings), which are generally made from reed leaves, bamboo leaves, etc. They are an essential material for making zongzi. After being washed, the bamboo leaves are placed in a refrigeration unit for freezing. However, most refrigeration units now have fixed shelves, making it difficult to adjust their positions. This results in the refrigeration unit's internal space not being used to its fullest potential, which in turn affects the number of bamboo leaves that can be frozen.
[0003] The existing Chinese patent (authorization announcement number CN212878634U) CN212878634U, which states: "It includes a cabinet body, an automatic defrosting device, a condensate inlet, a cabinet door, a storage shelf, a refrigerator start button, an automatic defrosting device start button, and a heat dissipation vent. The automatic defrosting device is embedded inside the cabinet body, the condensate inlet is threadedly connected to the cabinet body, and the cabinet door is movably engaged with the cabinet body."
[0004] It is evident that the cited patent document suffers from the problem of inconvenient shelf position adjustment, thus failing to maximize space utilization. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a freezing device for zongzi leaves to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a zongzi leaf freezing device, comprising a freezer body, wherein upright blocks are installed on both inner walls of the freezer body, and several sliders are commonly fitted around the periphery of the two upright blocks, and a receiving plate for placing zongzi leaves is provided on the top surface of each slider, and a bidirectional threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of each slider via a pin, and two movable blocks are threaded around the periphery of each bidirectional threaded rod, and hinge plates are hinged to both sides of each movable block, and a movable plate is commonly hinged to the free end of each pair of hinge plates, and a limiting block is installed on one side of each movable plate, and several limiting grooves that engage with the limiting blocks are equally spaced on one side of each of the two upright blocks, and a limiting component for restricting the movement of the receiving plate is provided on the top surface of each slider.
[0007] Preferably, the limiting component includes a groove, a horizontal plate, a stop block, a slide groove, and a slot, wherein the groove is formed on the top surface of the slider.
[0008] Preferably, the receiving plate is slidably disposed in the inner cavity of the groove, and the horizontal plate is installed on the inner sidewall of the groove.
[0009] Preferably, the stop block is installed on one side of the horizontal plate, the slide groove is formed on one side of the receiving plate, and the size of the slide groove is adapted to the size of the horizontal plate.

[0026] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.
[0027] Unless otherwise defined, the directions mentioned herein, such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside, are based on the directions shown in the figures of this utility model, and are explained here together.
[0028] The connection method can be any existing method, such as bonding, welding, or bolting, depending on the actual needs.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 6 The illustrated freezing device for zongzi leaves includes a freezer body 1. The freezer body 1 uses existing mature freezer equipment that can freeze zongzi leaves. One side of the freezer body 1 is provided with a door 19, and the freezer body 1 and the door 19 are connected by existing automatic door closing hinges and connecting hinges. Both sides of the inner wall of the freezer body 1 are equipped with upright blocks 2. Several sliders 3 are fitted around the periphery of the two upright blocks 2. The top surface of each slider 3 is provided with a receiving plate 4 for placing zongzi leaves, so that people can place the zongzi leaves to be frozen on the surface of the receiving plate 4.
[0030] Each slider 3 has a double-threaded rod 5 rotatably connected to its inner wall via a pin. One end of the double-threaded rod 5 passes through the slider 3 and is connected to a knob. Two movable blocks 6 are threaded around the periphery of each double-threaded rod 5. Each movable block 6 has hinged hinge plates 7 on both sides. The free ends of each pair of hinge plates 7 are hinged together to a movable plate 8. A limit block 9 is installed on one side of each movable plate 8. A through groove 10 for the limit block 9 to pass through is opened on one side of the slider 3. Several limit grooves 11 that engage with the limit blocks 9 are equally spaced on one side of each of the two upright blocks 2. After placing the bamboo leaves to be frozen on the surface of the receiving plate 4 located below, the upper slider 3 is moved downwards to bring the upper slider 3 as close as possible to the bamboo leaves below. After approaching the position of the upper block 2, align the limiting groove 11 on one side with the limiting block 9 inside the slider 3. Then, rotate the knob on one side of the upper slider 3 to rotate the bidirectional threaded rod 5, thereby moving the two movable blocks 6 in opposite directions. Since the multiple hinge plates 7 are inclined, when the two movable blocks 6 move, they will drive the limiting block 9 to move laterally through the two hinge plates 7, allowing the limiting block 9 to pass through the through groove 10 and enter the aligned limiting groove 11, thus fixing the position of the slider 3 and the position of the receiving plate 4. This process can be repeated to adjust the positions of other sliders 3, thereby maximizing the use of the space inside the freezer body 1 and allowing more bamboo leaves to be frozen.
[0031] Each slider 3 has a limiting component on its top surface to restrict the movement of the receiving plate 4. The limiting component includes a groove 12, a horizontal plate 13, a stop block 14, a sliding groove 15, and a slot 16. The groove 12 is opened on the top surface of the slider 3. The receiving plate 4 is slidably disposed in the inner cavity of the groove 12, so that personnel can pull the receiving plate 4 and move it in the inner cavity of the groove 12, thereby pulling it out from the inside of the freezer body 1, making it convenient for personnel to place and take out the zongzi leaves.
[0032] A horizontal plate 13 is installed on the inner wall of a groove 12, a stop block 14 is installed on one side of the horizontal plate 13, a sliding groove 15 is formed on one side of a receiving plate 4, and the size of the sliding groove 15 is adapted to the size of the horizontal plate 13. A hollow groove 16 is formed on the inner wall of the sliding groove 15, and the size of the hollow groove 16 is adapted to the size of the stop block 14. When a person pulls the receiving plate 4, the receiving plate 4 will move around the horizontal plate 13 and the stop block 14 via the sliding groove 15 and the hollow groove 16. The horizontal plate 13 is adapted, so the slide 15 and the horizontal plate 13 can limit the movement of the receiving plate 4. Since the size of the stop block 14 is larger than the horizontal plate 13, the size of the empty groove 16 is also larger than the slide 15. When the receiving plate 4 moves to the outside of the freezer body 1, the stop block 14 will abut against the inner wall of the empty groove 16, thereby limiting the movement distance of the receiving plate 4 and preventing the receiving plate 4 from accidentally falling directly out of the groove 12 due to excessive force when pulled by personnel.
[0033] Two locking holes 20 are symmetrically provided on the inner top surface of the groove 12 and the top surface of the receiving plate 4. The positions of each pair of locking holes 20 are aligned, and a locking post 21 is engaged in the inner cavity of each pair of locking holes 20. After the receiving plate 4 enters the groove 12, the positions of the two locking holes 20 on the surface of the receiving plate 4 will be aligned with the positions of the two locking holes 20 on the inner top surface of the groove 12. At this time, the locking post 21 is inserted into the two aligned locking holes 20 to fix the position of the receiving plate 4, so as to prevent the receiving plate 4 from moving outward when the slider 3 is moved longitudinally.
[0034] Two limiting rods 17 and connecting rods 18 are symmetrically installed on the inner walls of both sides and the inner wall of the adjacent side of each slider 3. Each moving plate 8 and movable block 6 are slidably sleeved on the periphery of the two limiting rods 17 and the two connecting rods 18, so that when the moving plate 8 moves, it will move on the periphery of the two limiting rods 17, and when the movable block 6 moves, it will move on the periphery of the two connecting rods 18. This limits the movement trajectory of the moving plate 8 and the movable block 6 and prevents deviation.
[0035] Working principle:
[0036] This bamboo leaf freezing device places the bamboo leaves to be frozen on the surface of the receiving plate 4, and then moves the upper slider 3 downwards, bringing it as close as possible to the bamboo leaves below. After it is as close as possible, the limiting groove 11 on one side of the upright block 2 is aligned with the limiting block 9 inside the slider 3. At this time, rotating the knob on one side of the upper slider 3 will drive the two movable blocks 6 to move in opposite directions through the bidirectional threaded rod 5, and then drive the limiting block 9 to move laterally through the two hinge plates 7, so that the limiting block 9 can pass through the through groove 10 and enter the aligned limiting groove 11, thereby fixing the position of the slider 3, and then fixing the position of the receiving plate 4. This process is repeated to adjust the positions of other sliders 3, thereby maximizing the use of the internal space of the freezer body 1 and freezing more bamboo leaves.
