JPH0542800A - Manufacture of frozen-up molding - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To mass-produce frozen-up moldings at low cost. CONSTITUTION:A mold 1 having a required shape corresponding to a frozen-up molding to be manufactured is firstly formed, and a plurality of liquids to be frozen which are different in specific gravity are poured into the mold 1 in the order of large specific gravity so as to obtain a stratiform state. When, for example, three kinds of liquids are used, the liquid 2, the liquid 3, and the liquid 4 are poured into the mold above-mentioned in this order of large specific gravity. Then, when frozen-up molding containing a decorative material 5 is required to be manufactured, the decorative material 5 is put into the liquid poured into the mold 1 before freezing. Then, after freezing it together with the mold 1, the frozen-up molding abovementioned is taken out by removing the mold 1. Thus, the frozen-up molding having the requied shape is completed.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an ice-molded article such as an icicle and an ice sculpture, which are installed around a room or on a desk at various party venues.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, as the above-mentioned ice-molded articles, there are icicles to be displayed at various party venues, ice sculptures in which ice is engraved in a desired shape, not just icicles.

The above-mentioned ice sculpture is a product obtained by cutting out an ice block with a chisel or the like, and a high level of technology is required for its production. Therefore, each ice sculpture requires an expert to cut out the ice. It had to be made.

[0004]

As described above,
Since it was necessary for each of the conventional ice-molded articles to be manufactured by an expert, mass production was impossible and the cost was high.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for producing an ice-molded article, which enables mass production of the ice-molded article and thereby provides it at an inexpensive price. To do.

[0006]

To achieve the above object, in the method for producing an ice-molded article of the present invention, in the first step, a die having a desired shape corresponding to the ice-molded article to be produced is formed. In the second step, a plurality of liquids having different specific gravities to be frozen are poured into the mold formed in the first step in descending order of specific gravity so as to form a layer, and the third step is performed.
In the process of 1) in the liquid poured into the mold by the second process, or in the mold 1 prior to the second process.
In the fourth step, the desired ornamental body is put into the mold, and the ornamental body and the liquid contained in the liquid in the third step are frozen in the mold. After the freezing in the fourth step, the mold is removed and the frozen molded product is taken out to produce an frozen molded product.

[0007]

That is, the operation of the present invention is such that, when a mold having a desired shape corresponding to the ice-molded article to be manufactured is formed in the first step, a plurality of pieces to be frozen in the above-mentioned mold are formed in the second step. Liquids having different specific gravities are poured in descending order of specific gravities so as to form a layer, and in the liquid by the third step,
Alternatively, a desired decorative body is put in before the second step, and the decorative body and the liquid are frozen in the mold in the fourth step. And by the fifth step,
The above mold is removed and the above ice-molded product is taken out to prepare an ice-molded product.

[0008] Therefore, it is possible to provide a method for producing an ice-molded article having a desired shape by mass production and at a low cost.

EXAMPLE FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining a specific method for producing an ice-molded article according to the present invention.

In the method for producing a frozen molded article according to the present invention,
As shown in FIG. 1 (a), first, a mold 1 having a desired shape corresponding to an ice-molded product to be manufactured is formed. The mold 1 may use a container prepared in advance.

Next, as shown in FIG. 1 (b), a plurality of liquids having different specific gravities to be frozen are poured into the mold 1 in order of increasing specific gravity so as to form a layer. For example, when using three types of liquids, the liquid 2, the liquid 3,
The liquid 4 is poured into the above mold in this order.

When it is desired to produce an ice-molded product containing the ornamental body 5, the ornamental body 5 is immersed in the liquid poured into the die 1 before freezing, as shown in FIG. 1 (c). Put in. Then, as shown in FIG. 1 (d), after freezing with the mold 1, the mold 1 is removed as shown in FIG. 1 (e), and the frozen molded product is taken out.

In this way, an ice-molded article having a desired shape as shown in FIG. 1 (f) is completed.

In the above description, the mold 1, the liquid 2,
Although the decorative body 5 is put after putting 3 and 4, either one may be put first.

Further, the reason why a plurality of liquids having different specific gravities are used as the above-mentioned liquid for freezing is to prepare an ice-molded product in which a color change or a freezing state change is observed in layers, and the specific gravity is For example, it can be adjusted by a colorant such as paint or a transparent body such as glycerin.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 2 shows a first embodiment according to the present invention.

In this embodiment, first, a vase-shaped mold is prepared, and some orchid flowers 22 are placed in the mold. Here, since it is necessary to freeze the orchid flower at a certain position when making ice, a weight 21 is attached to the flower so as not to move.

Next, a plurality of liquids having different specific gravities are placed in a mold in descending order of specific gravity, and the molds are frozen together.

Then, after freezing, the mold is taken to complete an ice-molded product in the form of a vase containing flowers as shown in FIG.

FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment according to the present invention.

In this embodiment, first, a mold in the shape of a sunfish is prepared, and the plastic ring 31 is put into the mold.

Here, since the plastic ring 31 floats on water, it is fixed by Tegs (not shown) for fishing so as to float in water, and then liquids having different specific gravities are put into the mold in descending order of specific gravity, and the molds are frozen together.

Then, after freezing, the mold is removed to obtain the structure shown in FIG.
An ice mold in the shape of a sunfish, as shown in, is completed.

In the first and second embodiments, it is also possible to manufacture an ice-molded article having a layered color change by changing the color of the liquid.

As described above in detail, in the present invention, the frozen molded article is produced by freezing a plurality of liquids having different specific gravities put in the mold.

Therefore, if a mold having a desired shape is prepared in advance, the same molded product can be mass-produced, whereby an ice-molded product can be provided at low cost.

[0028]

According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a method for producing an ice-molded article having a desired shape, which can be mass-produced and provided at low cost.
