Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a structure for taking out a molded piece in a mold used for molding food such as confectionery into a predetermined shape.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional food molding die 1 shown in FIG. 3 comprises a molding cylinder 2 having an annular molding blade 6 and an extrusion body 3 inserted into the molding cylinder 2. In the molding space 8 defined by the annular molding blade 6, the inner peripheral surface 7 of the molding cylinder 2 extending therefrom and the extrusion body 3, the extrusion body 3 of the molding cylinder 2 is moved toward and away from the annular molding blade 6. It is movable along the inner peripheral surface 7.

The food mold 1 is usually used in the following procedure 1) → 5). 1) As shown in FIG. 3A, the annular forming blade 6 of the forming cylinder 2 is applied onto the material M (for example, cake dough before baking). In this case, the planar extrusion surface 9 of the extrusion body 3 is applied to the material M.

2) As shown in FIG. 3B, the forming cylinder 2 is pressed downward and the material M is cut by the annular forming blade 6.
In this case, the material M is pushed into the molding space 8 and the extrusion body 3 is lifted by the material M in the molding cylinder 2 while the extrusion surface 9 of the extrusion body 3 is applied onto the material M.

3) As shown in FIG. 3 (c), when the molding cylinder 2 is lifted up, the molding piece m is separated while being held in the molding space 8. 4) As shown in FIG. 3 (d), when the extruded body 3 is pressed,
A part of the molding piece m is extruded from the molding cylinder 2 by the pushing surface 9.

5) As shown in FIG. 3 (e), when the extruded body 3 is further pressed, the entire molding piece m is extruded from the molding cylinder 2. In addition, after the above 1) → 3), the following 6) → 7) may be used.

6) As shown in FIG. 3 (f), the take-out rod 1
4 (for example, toothpick) is inserted into the molded piece m. 7) As shown in FIG. 3 (g), the extrusion body 3 is pressed down and the take-out rod 14 is pulled to take out the molded piece m from the inside of the molding cylinder 2.

[0008]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, the above 1) → 5)
In the case of using the above procedure, when the molded piece m is extruded from the molding cylinder 2, there is a risk that the molded piece m may suddenly separate and drop on a table or the like.

On the other hand, in the case of using the procedure of 1) → 3), 6) → 7), since the molded piece m is supported by the take-out rod 14, the molded piece m is less likely to drop. However, since the user cannot see the tip 14a of the take-out rod 14, it is not possible to know how long the take-out rod 14 is inserted into the molded piece m. If the insertion length is insufficient, the molded piece m may drop. On the contrary, if the user is too conscious of it and inserts the take-out rod 14 into the molded piece m too strongly, the pointed end 14a may hit the extruded body 3 and break.

It is an object of the present invention to improve the extrudate so that the ejection rod can be inserted into the shaped piece sufficiently and easily.
