Abstract

Container for "ice cubes" with demoulding included. characterized by having a lower compartment designed to accommodate fluid. This lower space is attached to the rest of the container at the vertices of the cubicles where the ice we want to consume will be formed.

Description

Container for "ice cubes" with demolding included.

Object of the invention

We have designed a container to accommodate "ice cubes" so that the demoulding of "cubes" is done automatically without the need for perform any operation In many cases this work is done difficult to stick the "cubes" to its walls making it is necessary to twist the container without even achieving it in Many occasions.

Background of the invention

Conventional containers are designed leaving the necessary space to accommodate the intended liquid Frost without more.

Description

It is a container to make "cubes of ice "that makes it possible to extract the" cubes " of its molds automatically. We avoid the difficult task that many times this simple operation involves twisting or flex the same several times until we get our objective.

The purpose has been achieved by placing a fluid enclosed in the bottom of the container. This fluid, at solidify due to the cold, increase in volume by pressing the bottom or side walls of the individual modules with the content to use that has already solidified previously. So we get it to move upwards by detaching itself from its container automatically.

The fluid in question has the properties necessary for freezing after of the liquid from the "cubes", which will make it possible to produce the pressure caused by the demoulding of these once they have acquired the shape of its containers (in any of its different designs, cubes, stars, cylinders, etc ...).

Also, depending on the design of the container, you can said fluid being housed in the side walls of each cubicle, in that case the pressure that will occur will widen the walls lateral causing the rise of icy pieces and therefore their demoulding equally.

The types of molds according to their shape can be, Without the intention of being exhaustive:

1. Mold with "cubes" of walls flat bottoms.

2. Mold with "cubes" of walls concave lower.

3. Mold with "cubes" of side walls inclined

These types are reflected in the figures corresponding where differences before and after are appreciated of cooling In the three figures the symmetry is used to reflect the mold before (left, indicated with 1.1, 2.1 and 3.1) and after being cooled (right, indicated with 1.2, 2.2, 3.2) until freezing its content. The letter "A" indicates both the zones occupied by the liquid we want to consume like the one locked in the container in its lower part. The letter "B" indicates the same fluids once they have frozen and therefore have suffered deformation. The letter "C" indicates the hollow bottom bag and closed, occupies the entire bottom of the container, and houses the fluid that distinguishes it from conventional containers, obviously you should not leave your enclosure because they would stop  fulfill its particular properties. The letter "D" indicates the bars that prevent unwanted displacements between different parts of the container when the different occurs deformations, both of the enclosed fluid and of the one that is wanted consume.

Sections reflect three prototypes "cubes" as an example. The containers can be of different sizes in surface and height and can accommodate from a single cavity to several.

The three types that are reflected in the Drawings can be combined with each other in the same product.

To keep the main structure stable of the mold - thus avoiding the vertical displacement of the walls sides that separate some "cubes" when the volume increases base fluid - the walls are braced to the underside of the mold, extending them by means of bars or other elements thereof material that the set that allow the free movement of closed fluid in the entire mold base.

To prevent the bottom face of the bag lose your flatness when freezing a rigid plate is inserted into its mass or its thickness is reinforced. The mold as a whole is becomes an element that should only allow deformation important on the underside of individual molds.

Preferred embodiment

The most appropriate way to make the piece is injected. The material to be used can be any that allows to achieve the desired results, what a priori seems more suitable is the plastic, which allows the deformations. Subsequently, the fluid enclosed in the lower bag of the container will be introduced with the necessary capacity to store the right amount that allows its increase in volume without jeopardizing the proper functioning of the assembly and without allowing leaks of the product used.

Claims (1)

1. Container for "ice cubes" with demolding included. Characterized by having a lower compartment designed to accommodate fluid. This lower space is attached to the rest of the container at the vertices of the cubicles where the ice we want to use will form.
