Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice cube tray technology, specifically to an ice cube tray with hooks. Background Technology

[0002] The most common meaning of an ice cube tray refers to a mold used to make ice cubes in the freezer compartment of a refrigerator. Ice cube trays are a common household item widely used in homes, restaurants, and medical settings, primarily for making ice cubes in the freezer compartment of a refrigerator.

[0003] Traditional ice cube trays are mostly made of hard plastic or silicone. When in use, water is poured into each compartment, and after freezing, the ice cubes are released by bending or twisting the box. However, with existing ice cube trays, when the ice cubes are frozen solid or the compartments are deep, it is difficult to push the ice cubes out smoothly by manually bending them. Repeated force is required, which makes the operation inconvenient. Moreover, excessive bending of the ice cube tray may cause the silicone to age and the joints to crack, shortening its service life. To address this, we propose an ice cube tray with hooks. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an ice cube tray with hooks to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that traditional ice cube trays are mostly made of hard plastic or silicone. When in use, water is injected into each compartment, and after freezing, the ice cubes are demolded by bending or twisting the box. However, with existing ice cube trays, when the ice cubes are frozen solid or the compartments are deep, it is difficult to push the ice cubes out smoothly by manually bending them. Repeated force is required, which makes the operation inconvenient. Moreover, excessive bending of the ice cube tray may cause silicone aging, cracking at the joints, and shorten the service life.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an ice cube tray with hooks, comprising: an ice cube tray;

[0006] It also includes: a pressing mechanism, which is installed on the ice cube tray. There are multiple pressing mechanisms, which are used to press and push the ice cubes out of the ice cube tray.

[0007] The suspension mechanism is installed on the ice cube tray and is used to suspend the ice cube tray on the hook.

[0008] The pressing mechanism includes a limiting groove inside the ice cube tray, a connecting shaft slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove, an elliptical pressing block fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting shaft, a top block fixedly connected to the top of the connecting shaft, and a limiting ring fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting shaft.

[0009] The inner side of the limiting groove is located above the top block and is fixedly connected to a diaphragm.

[0010] The bottom of the ice cube tray is located outside the oval pressing block and is fixedly connected with a protruding piece.

[0011] The suspension mechanism includes an outward protrusion that is fixedly connected to one side of the ice cube tray, and the outward protrusion has a hanging hole inside.

[0012] The ice cube tray is made of silicone.

[0013] The bottom of the ice cube tray has multiple anti-slip bumps.

[0014] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] By incorporating a pressing mechanism, users can easily press the oval pressing block with their fingers to target the ice cubes in the corresponding ice cube tray. The ice cubes are then smoothly ejected by the top block, eliminating the need for forcefully bending the ice cube tray. This reduces the difficulty of operation and avoids silicone fatigue or breakage caused by traditional forced twisting, ultimately extending the lifespan of the ice cube tray. The hanging mechanism allows the ice cube tray to be easily hung on hooks for vertical storage, saving cabinet space and facilitating moisture evaporation, thus maintaining hygiene.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 4This utility model provides a technical solution: an ice cube tray with hooks, comprising: an ice cube tray 1;

[0024] It also includes: a pressing mechanism 2, which is installed on the ice cube tray 1. There are multiple pressing mechanisms 2, which are used to press and push out the ice cubes in the ice cube tray 1.

[0025] The suspension mechanism 3 is installed on the ice cube tray 1 and is used to suspend the ice cube tray 1 on the hook.

[0026] The pressing mechanism 2 allows users to press the oval pressing block 24 with their fingers to press the ice cubes in the corresponding ice cube tray 1. The ice cubes are then smoothly pushed out by the top block 26 without having to bend the ice cube tray 1 forcefully. This reduces the difficulty of operation and avoids silicone fatigue or breakage caused by traditional forced twisting, ultimately extending the service life of the ice cube tray 1. The hanging mechanism 3 allows the ice cube tray 1 to be easily hung on a hook for vertical storage, saving cabinet space and facilitating moisture evaporation and maintaining hygiene.

[0027] The pressing mechanism 2 includes a limiting groove 21 opened in the ice cube tray 1. A connecting shaft 23 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 21. An elliptical pressing block 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting shaft 23. A top block 26 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting shaft 23. A limiting ring 22 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting shaft 23. A diaphragm 27 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the limiting groove 21 above the top block 26. A protruding piece 25 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ice cube tray 1 outside the elliptical pressing block 24.

[0028] When in use, the scraper material of the ice cube tray 1 makes it easy to eject the ice cubes from the ice cube tray 1. If some ice cubes are still stored in the ice cube tray 1, the elliptical pressing block 24 can be pressed by pressing the protruding piece 25. The protruding piece 25 not only provides protection for the elliptical pressing block 24, but also reduces the force applied by the user when pressing. When the elliptical pressing block 24 is pressed, the connecting shaft 23 can be moved within the limiting groove 21, causing the moving connecting shaft 23 to drive the limiting ring 22 to slide and limit within the limiting groove 21. The moving connecting shaft 23 can also cause the top block 26 to lift the diaphragm 27. The elasticity of the diaphragm 27 can protect the ice cubes, prevent damage caused by lifting, and also meet the needs of ice cube shaping, thus allowing the ice cubes to be ejected.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] like Figures 1 to 2 In this second embodiment, the other structures remain unchanged, but the difference from the first embodiment is:

[0031] The hanging mechanism 3 includes an external protrusion 31 that is fixedly connected to one side of the ice cube tray 1. The external protrusion 31 has a hanging hole 32 inside. When in use, the ice cube tray 1 can be easily hung on a hook using the hanging hole 32 inside the external protrusion 31 for vertical storage, thereby saving cabinet space and facilitating moisture evaporation and maintaining hygiene.

[0032] Ice cube tray 1 is made of silicone, which allows for easy dispensing of ice during use due to its properties.

[0033] The bottom of the ice cube tray 1 is equipped with multiple anti-slip bumps 4, which effectively prevent slipping during water filling or movement, reduce the risk of water spillage, and improve safety during use.
