Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold technology, and more specifically, to a molding mold. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the process of making konjac tofu involves pouring boiled konjac slurry into a mold and smoothing it to ensure a uniform final product shape. The mold is then placed in a steamer, where heating accelerates the setting of the konjac slurry, resulting in shaped konjac tofu. However, in practice, after the konjac tofu cools, it needs to be demolded from the mold and then cut into pieces. This is typically done using a separate cutting mold (equipped with a cutter that cuts the konjac tofu by pressing it through the mold). The cutting mold is usually smaller than the forming mold, requiring the konjac tofu to be pre-cut into several pieces suitable for the cutting mold. This cumbersome process necessitates multiple demolding and filling operations and requires improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a molding die to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A molding die includes a mold frame with a slot on one side wall along its width. A removable partition is provided inside the mold frame through the slot, which divides the interior of the mold frame into an injection cavity and a cutting cavity. The injection cavity is located above the partition, and the cutting cavity is located below the partition. An adjustable cutting component is provided in the cutting cavity. When the partition is pulled out from the slot and pressed down from the opening of the injection cavity, the cutting component cuts the molded konjac tofu.
[0005] Furthermore, the slitting assembly includes a fixed cutting plate arranged along the width direction of the mold frame, with both ends of the fixed cutting plate fixedly installed on the corresponding side wall of the slitting cavity. The slitting assembly also includes a movable cutting plate arranged along the length direction of the mold frame, with a slot having an opening at the top. The movable cutting plate is slidably installed on the fixed cutting plate through the slot, and the movable cutting plate is slidably installed in the slitting cavity through a sliding member.
[0006] Furthermore, L-shaped moving grooves are provided on the two side walls of the mold frame that are far apart from each other along their width direction. The lower end of the moving groove is open. The sliding member includes a threaded post on the side wall opposite to the moving cutting plate. The threaded post extends out of the moving groove and a positioning nut is provided on the extended end of the threaded post. The positioning nut abuts against the corresponding side wall of the mold frame to realize the positioning of the moving cutting plate.
[0007] Furthermore, each of the partitions has a first mounting hole on its sidewalls that are far apart from each other. A threaded rod is threaded into the first mounting hole, and the threaded rod is used to pull the partition out of the slot.
[0008] Furthermore, a second mounting hole is provided on the lower side of the partition plate at the center position, and a threaded rod is threaded into the second mounting hole for removing the partition plate from the injection molding cavity.
[0009] Furthermore, overlapping blocks are provided on the opposite side walls of the mold frame, and the overlapping blocks are provided with handle grooves with openings on one side.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model, through the setting of the cutting component, allows the partition to be pulled out from the mold frame through the slot, so that the injection cavity and the cutting cavity can be connected. The partition is then placed on the konjac tofu through the opening of the injection cavity, and the partition is pressed down so that the konjac tofu can move down and be cut into blocks by the cutting component, thus completing the cutting of the konjac tofu. As a result, during the cutting process, there is no need to demold the konjac tofu multiple times and place it on an additional cutting component for cutting, making the operation more convenient.
[0011] This invention releases the positioning of the movable cutting plate by loosening the positioning nut. Then, by sliding the movable cutting plate, it can slide on the fixed cutting plate through the slot. The lower end opening of the moving slot allows the movable cutting plate to slide in or out of the moving slot, thereby increasing or decreasing the number of movable cutting plates within the moving slot and adjusting the spacing between adjacent movable cutting plates. Finally, by tightening the positioning nut, the positioning nut abuts against the corresponding side wall of the mold frame, fixing the movable cutting plate, thus enabling the cutting of konjac tofu blocks of different sizes.

[0019] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.
[0020] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-6 This embodiment will be described in further detail.
[0021] Combined with appendix Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, a molding die includes a mold frame 100. A slot 103 is provided on one side wall of the mold frame 100 along its width direction. A pull-out partition 109 is provided inside the mold frame 100 through the slot 103. The partition 109 is used to divide the interior of the mold frame 100 into an injection cavity and a cutting cavity. The injection cavity is located above the partition 109, and the cutting cavity is located below the partition 109. An adjustable cutting component is provided in the cutting cavity. When the partition 109 is pulled out from the slot 103 and pressed down from the opening of the injection cavity, the cutting component can cut the molded konjac tofu.
[0022] In this example, the mold frame 100 has openings at the top and bottom, which are separated by the partition 109 to form an injection cavity with an upper opening and a cutting cavity with a lower opening. When it is necessary to shape the konjac tofu, the konjac slurry is poured into the injection cavity so that the konjac slurry can be contained in the injection cavity. Then, the operator uses a scraper to smooth the upper surface of the konjac slurry to ensure that the konjac tofu is of a regular shape after molding. In actual use, after the surface of the konjac slurry is smoothed, the mold is placed in a steamer for heating to accelerate the molding of konjac tofu in the injection cavity. When the konjac slurry forms konjac tofu, the mold is removed from the steamer and placed on a water tank. At this time, the partition 109 is pulled out from the mold frame 100 through the slot 103, so that the injection cavity and the cutting cavity can be connected. Then, the partition 109 is placed on the konjac tofu through the opening of the injection cavity and pressed down so that the konjac tofu can move down. It is then cut into pieces by the cutting component and falls into the water tank through the lower opening of the cutting cavity for cooling, thus completing the cutting of the konjac tofu. Therefore, during the cutting process, the konjac tofu does not need to be demolded multiple times and placed on an additional cutting component for cutting, making the operation more convenient. Among them, the adjustable settings of the cutting component enable the cutting component to cut konjac tofu into pieces of different sizes as needed; The lower side of the partition 109 is slidably overlapped with the cutting assembly, so that the partition 109 can be slidably installed in the injection cavity; specifically, the side wall of the partition 109 is slidably attached to the corresponding side wall of the injection cavity, so that the partition 109 can press down on the whole piece of konjac tofu, so that the whole piece of konjac tofu can be cut by the cutting assembly. In order to facilitate the operator to remove the partition 109 from the slot 103, in this embodiment, each of the side walls of the partition 109 that are far apart from each other is provided with a first mounting hole 600, and a threaded rod 400 is threaded in the first mounting hole 600. The threaded rod 400 is used to pull the partition 109 out of the slot 103.
[0023] In actual use, the threaded rod 400 is screwed into the first mounting hole 600 so that the threaded rod 400 can be fixedly installed on the partition 109. At this time, the operator pulls the threaded rod 400 outward so that the threaded rod 400 can move the partition 109 out of the slot 103. When it is necessary to put the partition 109 with the lower side facing up on the konjac tofu, the threaded rod 400 is screwed into the first mounting hole 600 so that the partition 109 can be put into the injection cavity. In actual use, after pressing down on the partition 109 to complete the cutting of konjac tofu, in order to facilitate the operator to remove the partition 109 from the injection cavity; in this embodiment, the second mounting hole 202 is provided on the lower side of the partition 109 and at the center position. It should be noted that when the konjac paste is poured into the molding cavity, the lower side of the partition 109 faces downwards, so that the opening of the second mounting hole 202 faces downwards, preventing the konjac paste from entering the second mounting hole 202. When it is necessary to press the partition 109 downwards to cut the konjac tofu, the lower side of the partition 109 is placed on the konjac tofu so that the opening of the second mounting hole 202 faces upwards, preventing the konjac tofu from entering the second mounting hole 202. Then, the threaded rod 400 is screwed into the second mounting hole 202 so that the threaded rod 400 can be fixedly installed on the partition 109. At this time, the operator pulls the threaded rod 400 upwards so that the threaded rod 400 can move the partition 109 out of the molding cavity. In order to facilitate the handling of the mold frame 100 by the operator, in this embodiment, an overlapping block 101 is fixedly installed on the opposite side wall of the mold frame 100, and the overlapping block 101 is provided with a handle groove 102 with an opening on one side.
[0024] Specifically, the handle groove 102 facilitates the handling of the mold frame 100 by the operator; when the mold needs to be placed on the water tank, the overlapping block 101 is overlapped on the corresponding side wall of the water tank, so that the mold can be placed on the water tank.
[0025] Combination Figures 4-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the slitting assembly includes a fixed cutting plate 200 arranged along the width direction of the mold frame 100. The two ends of the fixed cutting plate 200 are fixedly installed on the side wall corresponding to the slitting cavity. The slitting assembly also includes a movable cutting plate 201 arranged along the length direction of the mold frame 100. The movable cutting plate 201 is provided with a slot 700 with an upper opening. The movable cutting plate 201 is slidably installed on the fixed cutting plate 200 through the slot 700. The movable cutting plate 201 can be slidably installed in the slitting cavity through a sliding member.
[0026] In this embodiment, L-shaped moving grooves 104 are provided on the two side walls of the mold frame 100 that are far apart from each other along their width direction. The lower end of the moving groove 104 is open. The sliding member includes a threaded post 105 provided on the side wall opposite to the moving cutting plate 201. The threaded post 105 extends out of the moving groove 104. A positioning nut 106 is provided on the protruding end of the threaded post 105. The positioning nut 106 abuts against the corresponding side wall of the mold frame 100 to realize the positioning of the moving cutting plate 201.
[0027] In actual use, when it is necessary to cut konjac tofu into pieces, the partition 109 is first pulled into the injection cavity and then snapped into the injection cavity. The partition 109 is then pressed down. Through the setting of the slot 700, the grid formed by the intersection of the moving cutting plate 201 and the fixed cutting plate 200 can cut the downward-moving konjac tofu, so that the whole block of konjac tofu can be cut into multiple konjac tofu pieces. The multiple konjac tofu pieces can fall into the water tank from the lower opening of the cutting cavity by their own weight. In actual use, when it is necessary to cut konjac tofu blocks into konjac tofu pieces of different sizes, the positioning nut 106 is loosened to release the positioning of the moving cutting plate 201. Then, by sliding the moving cutting plate 201, the moving cutting plate 201 can slide on the fixed cutting plate 200 through the slot 700. The lower end opening of the moving slot 104 allows the moving cutting plate 201 to slide into or out of the moving slot 104, thereby increasing or decreasing the number of moving cutting plates 201 within the moving slot 104 and adjusting the spacing between adjacent moving cutting plates 201. Then, by tightening the positioning nut 106, the positioning nut 106 abuts against the corresponding side wall of the mold frame 100 to fix the moving cutting plate 201, thereby enabling the cutting of konjac tofu blocks of different sizes.
[0028] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the patent of the present utility model.
