[0002] In ice cream production lines, robotic arms are one of the most commonly used pieces of equipment. They can use draft molds to pull out ice cream products according to a preset program and transport them to the next process, thereby achieving automated ice cream production.

[0003] When robotic arms attempt to remove ice cream from molds, the strong adhesion between the ice cream and the mold often makes it difficult to remove, easily causing damage and deformation. Damaged or deformed ice cream means the product is defective and cannot be sold normally. This leads to waste of resources such as raw materials and processing costs, increasing the production cost per unit. To address this issue, a new ice cream ejector die is proposed.

[0031] 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.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-2 This utility model provides an embodiment of an ice cream ejector mold, including a base 1. A robotic arm 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. The robotic arm 2 can rotate or extend downwards to grip and remove ice cream sticks. This is prior art and will not be explained in detail here. A conveyor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. The top of the conveyor 3 contacts a mold 4. Ice cream solution is discharged into the mold 4 through a corresponding injection molding machine for molding. The mold 4 is made of aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy has good thermal conductivity, which allows the ice cream to cool and solidify quickly, improving production efficiency. In addition, it has good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, which can improve the overall service life. A removable mechanism 5 is provided on the top of the base 1; the removable mechanism 5 facilitates the removal of the molded ice cream.

[0033] Reference Figures 2-4The disassembly mechanism 5 includes an elastic telescopic rod 501, with a connecting block 502 fixedly connected to its top. The elastic telescopic rod 501 is formed by two sets of sleeve rods interlocking, allowing relative sliding between them to change its overall length. Additionally, the elastic telescopic rod 501 has a built-in spring for elasticity. A plug-in post 505 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting block 502, facilitating ice cream demolding. A contact seat 503 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting block 502. Multiple sets of connecting blocks 502 are provided; by moving one set of contact seats 503 downwards, multiple sets of connecting blocks 502 can move synchronously. A fixing plate 504 is fixedly connected to the outer arc surface of the robotic arm 2. The robotic arm 2 moves downwards first, subsequently causing the contact seats 503 to move downwards. At this time, the robotic arm 2 can continue to move downwards to remove the ice cream. The bottom inner side of the conveyor 3 is in contact with a heating plate 506. A plug is provided on the rear side of the heating plate 506 for easy connection to a socket and power supply, so that the heating plate 506 generates a certain temperature to preheat the ice cream mold 4 after it has been formed. This preheating will not cause the ice cream inside the mold 4 to melt, so that the ice cream can be easily removed. A connecting plate 508 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the heating plate 506. Fasteners are provided on the inner wall of the connecting plate 508. The connecting plate 508 is installed or fixed by the fasteners, so that the heating plate 506 can be fixed. A splicing mechanism 6 is provided on the left side of the mold 4. The splicing mechanism 6 facilitates the disassembly and replacement of individual molds 4.

[0034] Reference Figures 2-4 The bottom end of the elastic telescopic rod 501 is fixedly connected to the top end of the base 1. The bottom end of the elastic telescopic rod 501 is fixed to the base 1 by screws. The bottom end of the fixing plate 504 contacts the top end of the contact seat 503. The contact between the two is caused by the downward movement of the fixing plate 504, which in turn drives the contact seat 503 to move downward. The fasteners include the limiting bolt 507. The outer wall of the limiting bolt 507 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting plate 508. The left end of the limiting bolt 507 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the conveyor 3. The setting of the limiting bolt 507 facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the heating plate 506. A round hole is opened at the top end of the mold 4. The bottom end of the insertion post 505 is inserted into the inner wall of the round hole. The two are inserted to prevent the mold 4 from moving upward when the ice cream is pulled out, thus making it easier to pull out the ice cream.

[0035] Reference Figure 5The splicing mechanism 6 includes a support plate 601, of which two sets are provided. The mold 4 is provided with multiple sets. The outer wall of the support plate 601 has screw holes 602. The inner wall of the screw holes 602 is threaded with support bolts 603. The two are threaded together to provide room for movement of the support bolts 603. The bottom end of the support bolts 603 is threaded to the inner wall of the left mold 4. The two are threaded together to fix the spliced ​​mold 4. The right side of the support plate 601 is fixedly connected to the left side of the mold 4. The fixed setting can support the support plate 601. The support plate 601 is T-shaped. The special shape of the T-shape allows it to provide precise positioning for the two sets of molds 4.

[0036] Working Principle: First, the ice cream solution is injected into the mold 4 placed on the conveyor 3 using an injection molding machine. After a period of cooling, the ice cream completes the molding process within the mold 4. When ready to remove the ice cream, the heating plate 506 is connected to the power supply via a plug, generating heat to preheat the mold 4 above. The preheated mold 4 reduces adhesion between itself and the ice cream, making demolding easier. Simultaneously, the robotic arm 2 is activated, moving downwards and causing the fixing plate 504, fixed to its outer arc surface, to move downwards as well. The bottom of the fixing plate 504 contacts the contact seat 503. As the fixing plate 504 continues to move downwards, the contact seat 503 is also moved downwards. Since the contact seat 503 is fixedly connected to multiple sets of connecting blocks 502, these blocks move downwards synchronously. The insertion pins 505 at the bottom of the connecting blocks 502, originally inserted into the round holes at the top of the mold 4, exert a downward pushing force on the ice cream within the mold 4 as the connecting blocks 502 move downwards. At this point, the elastic telescopic rod 501, due to the action of its built-in spring, provides a certain amount of buffering and support when the connecting block 502 moves downward, ensuring a smooth demolding process. Meanwhile, the mold 4 remains stable under the action of the insertion post 505, preventing it from moving upwards, facilitating the subsequent removal of the ice cream by the robotic arm 2. After moving the contact seat 503 and other components downwards a certain distance, the robotic arm 2 continues to move downwards, using its own function to clamp the ice cream stick. Once firmly clamped, the robotic arm 2 lifts upwards and rotates, pulling the formed ice cream out of the mold 4, completing the demolding process.

[0037] When a single mold 4 needs to be disassembled and replaced, the splicing mechanism 6 comes into play. By rotating the support bolt 603, it is gradually detached from the inner wall of the mold 4. Once the support bolt 603 is completely loosened, the mold 4 to be replaced can be separated from the spliced ​​mold group. When replacing the new mold 4, the new mold 4 is aligned with the position of the support plate 601, and the support bolt 603 is aligned with the corresponding threaded hole on the mold 4. Then, the support bolt 603 is rotated to thread it into the inner wall of the new mold 4, thereby completing the splicing and fixing of the mold 4. The T-shaped design of the support plate 601 plays a precise positioning role in the splicing process of the mold 4, ensuring that the position of multiple sets of molds 4 is accurate after splicing and that there is no misalignment, thus ensuring the precision of subsequent ice cream production.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
