Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model is specifically a petal shaping device for making dried peony flowers, and relates to the field of peony cultural and creative products. Background Technology
[0002] Peonies, with their large, vibrant blossoms and auspicious symbolism of wealth and prosperity, possess high ornamental and economic value. Freshly picked peonies have a short shelf life; therefore, to preserve them for extended periods, they need to be dried. Current methods for drying peonies include natural air drying, using desiccants, and microwave drying. Among these, the desiccant method best preserves the three-dimensional shape and color of the peony blossoms and is considered the most effective method.
[0003] The desiccant method involves sprinkling a desiccant into peony petals and allowing it to naturally absorb moisture from the petals in a sealed environment. The challenge in producing dried peonies using this method lies in maintaining the original shape of the peony during the desiccant application process, preventing the petals from being deformed by the desiccant and affecting the quality of the dried flowers. Currently, due to the lack of specialized petal-shaping equipment, petals must be shaped manually. This results in two problems: firstly, the quality of the dried peonies is difficult to guarantee; secondly, the shaping time is long, affecting production volume. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model discloses a petal shaping device for making dried peony flowers, adopting the following technical solution:
[0005] A petal-shaping device for making dried peony flowers includes a circular box consisting of a tray and a ring; a hollow flower holder is provided at the center of the tray, and multiple flexible metal wires A for supporting peony sepals are welded around the circumference of the hollow flower holder; multiple flexible metal wires B for supporting peony petals are welded around the upper part of the ring.
[0006] Further improve the technical solution: weld multiple branched metal wires C onto metal wire A.
[0007] Further improve the technical solution: weld multiple branched metal wires D onto metal wire B.
[0008] Further improvement to the technical solution: The tray is a concave tray with support legs at the bottom.
[0009] Further improve the technical solution: Metal wire A and metal wire B are thin iron wire or copper wire.
[0010] Further improve the technical solution: The number of metal wires B is greater than the number of metal wires A.
[0011] After implementing the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model compared to the prior art are:
[0012] 1. The metal wires on the tray and ring have good flexibility and conform to the back of the corresponding peony sepals and petals, which can support and shape the peony sepals and petals.
[0013] 2. The tray and the ring can be fastened together to form a box. Firstly, the box can be used to hold the desiccant. Secondly, the split structure of the box can eliminate the interference of obstructions, which helps to achieve the bending operation of the metal wire.
[0014] 3. This petal shaping device has a compact structure and is easy to operate, which greatly shortens the shaping time and ensures the shaping quality of dried peony flowers. Attached Figure Description

[0023] A petal-shaping device for making dried peony flowers, relating to the field of peony-themed cultural and creative products, is mainly used to solve the problem of petals being difficult to shape during the production of dried peony flowers. The composition and working principle of this petal-shaping device are described in detail below.
[0024] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 This petal-shaped shaping device mainly consists of a tray 1 and a ring 2. The ring 2 is fastened onto the tray 1 to form a circular box.
[0025] See attached document Figure 3 , attached Figure 3 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of tray 1. (Attached) Figure 3 As can be seen, tray 1 is a concave disc with three legs 14 at the bottom. A hollow flower holder 11 is located in the center of tray 1. The hollow flower holder 11 has a through hole for inserting peony flower stems. The function of the hollow flower holder 11 is to support and fix the peony flowers.
[0026] Six easily bendable metal wires A12 are welded circumferentially to the hollow flower base 11. The function of the metal wires A12 is to conform to the natural shape of the peony sepals through spatial bending, thereby supporting and shaping the peony sepals. The metal wires can be made of thin iron wire or copper wire. In this embodiment, the metal wires A12 are made of copper wire with a diameter of 1.2 mm.
[0027] In order to provide multi-dimensional support and shaping for the peony sepals, three branch metal wires C13 are welded onto the metal wire A12. The branch metal wires C13 are made of copper wire with a diameter of 1.0 mm.
[0028] See attached document Figure 4 , attached Figure 4 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of ring 2. (See attached diagram.) Figure 4 As can be seen, ten easily bendable metal wires B21 are welded circumferentially to the upper part of the ring 2. The function of the metal wires B21 is to conform to the natural shape of the peony petals through spatial bending, thereby achieving support and shaping of the peony petals. In this embodiment, the metal wires B21 are also made of copper wire with a diameter of 1.2mm.
[0029] In order to provide multi-dimensional support and shaping for the peony petals, two branch metal wires D22 are welded onto the metal wire A12. The branch metal wires D22 are also made of copper wire with a diameter of 1.0mm.
[0030] See attached document Figure 5 When using it, first insert the peony flower into the hollow flower holder 11 of the tray 1, and then bend the metal wire A12 and the branch metal wire C13 one by one so that they conform to the back of the corresponding peony sepals, thereby supporting and shaping the peony sepals.
[0031] See attached document Figure 6 Place the ring 2 onto the tray 1 to form a box. Bend the metal wire B21 and the branched metal wire D22 one by one, allowing them to conform to the shape of the corresponding peony petals on the back, thus supporting and shaping the petals. Then, sprinkle desiccant into the box until the peony is completely submerged. Finally, place the box in a sealed environment, allowing the desiccant to slowly absorb the moisture from the petals.
[0032] The tray 1 and the ring 2 can be fastened together to form a box. Firstly, the box can be used to hold the desiccant. Secondly, the split structure of the box can eliminate the interference of obstructions, which helps to achieve the bending operation of the metal wire.
[0033] In summary, this petal shaping device can support and shape the sepals and petals of peonies, solving the problem of petal shaping difficulties in the production of dried peony flowers.
[0034] It is worth noting that the content not described in detail in the above embodiments is prior art. It is also worth noting that any additions, subtractions, substitutions, and improvements made by those skilled in the art based on the structure and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
