Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of liquid cryogenic molding technology, and in particular to a liquid cryogenic molding mold. Background Technology

[0002] With social development and the continuous improvement of living standards, more and more people like to make various ice products at home. For example, in the hot summer, people often make ice cubes or popsicles at home. When making ice cubes or popsicles, people need to add water or materials in liquid state into the cavity of the freezing mold, and then put it into the freezing cavity of the freezing equipment for freezing.

[0003] While the aforementioned cryogenic molding molds can meet users' needs for making ice cubes or popsicles, when these molds are placed in the freezing chamber of the freezing equipment for freezing, the outer wall of the mold cannot be tightly attached to the inner wall of the freezing chamber. Therefore, there is a gap between the mold and the inner wall of the freezing chamber, and air is present in the gap. This affects the heat conduction effect between the freezing chamber and the mold, greatly reducing the freezing efficiency of the freezing equipment on the mold. This not only prolongs the freezing time of the freezing equipment but also leads to more power consumption. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a liquid cryogenic molding mold, which allows the sidewalls of the liquid cryogenic molding mold to better adhere to the inner sidewall of the freezing chamber of the freezing equipment. This helps improve the thermal conductivity between the liquid cryogenic molding mold and the freezing chamber of the freezing equipment, and helps shorten the time for producing ice products using the liquid cryogenic molding mold.

[0005] A liquid cryogenic molding mold according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a cryogenic molding mold body, the cryogenic molding mold body including a first shell and a second shell, one end of the first shell being a first movable end, and one end of the second shell being a second movable end, the first movable end and the second movable end being movably connected, the first shell and the second shell being able to rotate relative to each other to fit together or separate, the first shell having a first chamber with an opening facing the second shell, when the first shell and the second shell are fitted together, the first chamber and the second shell being able to cooperate to enclose and form a sealed receiving cavity, the bottom wall of the first chamber away from the second shell being a first side wall, and the side wall of the second shell at the corresponding position to the first chamber being a second side wall, wherein the first side wall is a flexible side wall that can deform under force, and / or the second side wall is a flexible side wall that can deform under force.

[0006] A liquid cryogenic molding mold according to an embodiment of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0007] This embodiment of a liquid cryogenic molding mold uses a first and / or second sidewall that is flexible and deformable under stress. The user pours the liquid to be made into the mold's cavity and then places it in the freezing chamber of a freezing device.

[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 7 and mainly refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 According to certain embodiments of the present invention, a liquid cryogenic molding mold is provided, which is sometimes referred to as a "liquid cryogenic molding mold". A liquid cryogenic molding mold includes a cryogenic molding mold body 100, which includes a first shell 110 and a second shell 120. One end of the first shell 110 and one end of the second shell 120 are movably connected. Specifically, one end of the first shell 110 is a first movable end 114, and one end of the second shell 120 is a second movable end 124. The first movable end 114 and the second movable end 124 are movably connected. In this embodiment, both the first movable end 114 and the second movable end 124 have corresponding rotating holes 130. A rotating shaft passes through the rotating holes 130 of the first movable end 114 and the second movable end 124, thereby allowing the first movable end 114 and the second movable end 124 to be rotatably connected together, and the first shell 110 and the second shell 120 to rotate relative to each other and fit together or separate. The first housing 110 has a first chamber 111 with an opening facing the second housing 120. When the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are fitted together, the first chamber 111 and the second housing 120 can cooperate to form a sealed receiving cavity. This receiving cavity is used to hold liquids to be made into ice products, such as water for making ice cubes or liquid materials for making popsicles. The bottom wall of the first chamber 111 away from the second housing 120 is a first side wall 112, and the side wall of the second housing 120 at the corresponding position of the first chamber 111 is a second side wall 122. The first side wall 112 is a flexible side wall that can deform under stress, and / or the second side wall 122 is a flexible side wall that can deform under stress.

[0031] In this embodiment, the liquid cryogenic molding mold is designed with flexible sidewalls 112 and / or 122 that can deform under stress. The user pours the liquid to be used to make ice products into the mold's cavity and then places it in the freezing chamber of the freezing equipment. Because the first sidewall 112 and / or the second sidewall 122 are flexible sidewalls that can deform under stress, the liquid inside the cavity, under gravity, pushes the first sidewall 112 and / or the second sidewall 122 outwards, causing them to press tightly against the inner wall of the freezing chamber. Therefore, when making ice products, the liquid cryogenic molding mold in this embodiment can fit more closely against the inner wall of the freezing chamber, improving the thermal conductivity between the mold and the freezing chamber. The cold energy from the freezing chamber can be better transferred to the mold, significantly shortening the time required to make ice products and thus reducing the operating time of the freezing equipment, which helps to reduce energy consumption.

[0032] In some embodiments of this invention, the second housing 120 has a second chamber 121 open towards the first housing 110. When the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are fitted together, the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 121 can cooperate to form a sealed receiving cavity. In this embodiment, the second sidewall 122 is the bottom wall of the second chamber 121 away from the first housing 110, and both the first sidewall 112 and the second sidewall 122 are flexible sidewalls that can deform under stress. By adopting the above structure, the volume of the receiving cavity in this embodiment can be made larger to accommodate more solution.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, the first housing 110 has a first communication port 113 communicating with the first chamber 111 on its side wall away from the second housing 120, and the first side wall 112 is a first flexible membrane disposed on the first housing 110 and capable of sealing the first communication port 113; the second housing 120 has a second communication port 123 communicating with the second chamber 121 on its side wall away from the first housing 110, and the second side wall 122 is a second flexible membrane disposed on the second housing 120 and capable of sealing the second communication port 123. By adopting the above structure, the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 of this embodiment can be made of rigid materials, while the first side wall 112 and the second side wall 122 can be made of soft flexible materials, thereby simplifying the manufacturing and processing of the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 of this embodiment.

[0034] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first flexible membrane and the first housing 110 are an integral structure; the second flexible membrane and the second housing 120 are also an integral structure. Specifically, the first flexible membrane and the first housing 110 are injection molded, and both the second flexible membrane and the second housing 120 are injection molded. Further, both the first and second flexible membranes are silicone or rubber membranes. By adopting the above structure, when manufacturing the first housing 110 and the second housing 120, enterprises can use food-grade rigid plastic for injection molding of the first housing 110 and the second housing 120, and then use food-grade silicone or rubber for injection molding to obtain the aforementioned first sidewall 112 and second sidewall 122. This greatly improves the production efficiency of the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 and helps to reduce production costs.

[0035] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first flexible diaphragm and the first housing 110 are detachably connected; the second flexible diaphragm and the second housing 120 are detachably connected. Therefore, enterprises can produce the first flexible diaphragm, the first housing 110, the second flexible diaphragm, and the second housing 120 separately, and then assemble the first flexible diaphragm and the first housing 110 together, and assemble the second flexible diaphragm and the second housing 120 together, depending on actual needs. By adopting the above structure, when any part of the first flexible diaphragm, the first housing 110, the second flexible diaphragm, or the second housing 120 is damaged, it can be replaced individually, facilitating maintenance.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, the other end of the first housing 110 is a first fixed end 115, and the other end of the second housing 120 is a second fixed end 125. A locking assembly is provided between the first fixed end 115 and the second fixed end 125. The locking assembly can lock the first fixed end 115 and the second fixed end 125 and restrict the relative rotation and separation of the first housing 110 and the second housing 120. By adopting the above structure, when the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are attached, the locking assembly can lock the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 together and restrict their separation. Therefore, the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 121 can be tightly enclosed to form a sealed receiving cavity, preventing the liquid inside the receiving cavity from flowing out, which facilitates the use of the liquid cryogenic molding mold.

[0037] In some embodiments of this utility model, the locking assembly includes a hook 310 and a locking member 320 that can engage with each other. The locking member 320 has a groove 321 that engages with the hook 310. In this embodiment, the hook 310 is rotatably disposed on the second fixed end 125 of the second housing 120, and the locking member 320 is disposed on the first fixed end 115 of the first housing 110. Therefore, when the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are fitted together, the hook 310 can engage in the groove 321 of the locking member 320. At this time, the hook 310 and the locking member 320 cooperate to lock the first fixed end 115 and the second fixed end 125 together, thereby restricting the relative rotation and separation of the first housing 110 and the second housing 120.

[0038] It should be noted that in the above embodiments, the hook 310 is rotatably disposed on the second fixed end 125 of the second housing 120, and the snap-fit ​​member 320 is disposed on the first fixed end 115 of the first housing 110. However, in other embodiments of this utility model, the hook 310 and the snap-fit ​​member 320 may adopt other structures, such as the hook 310 being rotatably disposed on the first fixed end 115 of the first housing 110 and the snap-fit ​​member 320 being disposed on the second fixed end 125 of the second housing 120. When the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 are fitted together, the hook 310 can also cooperate with the snap-fit ​​member 320 to lock the first fixed end 115 and the second fixed end 125 together. The specific arrangement can be determined according to actual needs.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7In some embodiments of this utility model, the liquid cryogenic molding mold includes a handheld portion 400. A notch 410 is formed on the side wall of the first chamber 111 away from the first movable end 114, or a notch 410 is formed on the side wall of the second chamber 121 away from the second movable end 124. One end of the handheld portion 400 passes through the notch 410 and extends into the receiving cavity. The handheld portion 400 is provided with a sealing member 420 capable of sealing the notch 410, and the sealing member 420 is detachably fitted into the notch 410. By adopting the above structure, when the liquid cryogenic molding mold of this embodiment is used to make ice products, the user can first extend a part of the handle 400 into the receiving cavity, and make the seal 420 detachably embedded in the notch 410. Then, the liquid to be frozen is poured into the first chamber 111 and / or the second chamber 121. After that, the first shell 110 and the second shell 120 rotate relative to each other and fit together so that the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 121 surround to form a receiving cavity. Finally, the liquid cryogenic molding mold is placed into the freezing cavity of the freezing equipment for freezing. When the ice product is made, the user drives the first shell 110 and the second shell 120 to rotate relative to each other and separate. The user can not only hold the end of the handle 400 located outside the receiving cavity and remove the ice product from the first chamber 111 or the second chamber 121, but also hold the handle 400 to eat the ice product afterward, making the operation more convenient.

[0040] In some embodiments of this invention, a tray 430 is provided at one end of the handle 400 located outside the receiving cavity, and the tray 430 is arranged around the outer periphery of the handle 400. By adopting the above structure, when a user holds the handle 400 to consume ice products, and the melted liquid from the outer surface of the ice products flows down or drips along the handle 400, the tray 430 can catch the flowing or dripping liquid, preventing the liquid from flowing or dripping onto the user's hand, thus keeping the user's hand clean.

[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first fixed end 115 has a first clearance hole 210 to avoid the handle part 400 and the tray part 430, and the second fixed end 125 has a second clearance hole 220 to avoid the handle part 400 and the tray part 430. By adopting the above structure, when the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 rotate relative to each other and fit together, the handle part 400 and the tray part 430 will not interfere with each other, ensuring that the first housing 110 and the second housing 120 can fit together normally.

[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, the liquid cryogenic molding mold is an ice block cryogenic molding mold for making ice cubes, or the liquid cryogenic molding mold is an ice pop cryogenic molding mold for making popsicles, which can be determined according to actual needs.

[0043] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Furthermore, the embodiments of the present invention and the features thereof can be combined with each other unless otherwise specified.
