Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an obliquely tip-cut spoon for solving "separate use", and "piercing and cutting" problems.SOLUTION: At the leading end of a recessed portion of a spoon, a three to four fork-shaped tooth portion is formed at 70 degrees ± 10 degrees on the righthand side for a left hand and on the lefthand side for a right hand. The leading end of the comb is chamfered to form a trapezoidal section so that a series of "hooking", "piercing and tearing" and "scooping" operations is realized by one cutlery.

Description

  The present invention relates to a split spoon that is easy for everyone to use when eating.

  Cutlery is a generic term for fork, knife, spoon, and other utensils that you use to hold in your hand to take food from your table and put it in your mouth. In the conventional cutlery, it is necessary to use different instruments according to the operations of “cutting”, “stab”, and “hook” food during a meal.

  On the other hand, the fork and spoon have a fork part and a scooping part on the extended line of the handle. The general ones are made symmetrically so that they can be used regardless of the dominant hand. For those with disabilities, there are bent forks and scoops (see, for example, Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 1). In addition, there are also spoons and forks (see Patent Document 2) and cooking utensils (see Patent Document 3). Furthermore, there exists what has arrange | positioned the tooth | gear on the one side of a spoon (refer patent document 4).

  Hereinafter, the spoon and fork used by persons with disabilities will be described with reference to FIGS. 8, 9, 10 and 11. FIG. In FIG. 8, the fork part is bent with respect to the handle. FIG. 9 is a spoon and fork, which is formed by several curves along the outer edge from the end of the scooping portion, and can perform operations such as “stab” and “crawl”.

  In FIG. 10, one side of the spoon is a knife and the tip is a fork. The three holes in the scooping section are cooking utensils that can be used as a whisk. In FIG. 11, teeth are continuously provided on one side of a spoon to eat noodles and the like.

  All of the above-mentioned “cut”, “stab”, “hook noodles”, “crawl” and “foam” in one fork and spoon for people with disabilities or spoon fork etc. It cannot be realized with a tool, and it is necessary to use the tool properly according to the operation.

  Also, for those with disabilities in the body, elderly people with reduced grip strength, and those whose wrist joints are difficult to bend, the “stab and cut” operation of “fixing food with a fork and cutting with a knife” is very difficult.

  The present invention is intended to solve the problems of the conventional configuration such as “use different instruments” and “stab and cut”, and “hook”, “stab”, and “stab” the food. By realizing a series of actions such as “crawling up”, the goal is to realize a diagonally-split spoon that can be eaten with little movement, regardless of whether there is a disability or young and old.

In the present invention, three or four fork-like comb-like portions are provided at the tip of the concave portion of the spoon, 70 ° ± 10 ° oblique to the center line of the handle, the tip of the comb is chamfered, Was trapezoidal.
As a result, the noodles do not slip, are easy to hook, and a series of movements such as stab food, stab, and crawl are facilitated, and an obliquely cracked spoon that effectively combines the functions of a fork and spoon is provided. This solves the above problem.

  The diagonally-split spoon of the present invention, when eating noodles, especially instant cup noodles, if the noodles are hooked in a diagonal comb shape with a slight movement with the tip of the spoon slightly down, food on the line of the handle Therefore, if you bring it to your mouth in a well-balanced manner, the comb-shaped part will naturally face the mouth. The shape of the whole spoon is elliptical, and a comb is provided obliquely near the tip of the spoon, so that the contact on the side and bottom of the cup is good, and the noodles are hooked to the end and the tool is scooped up.

  Since the tip of the comb is chamfered and the cross section is formed in a trapezoidal shape, the effect of not slipping off when noodles are caught is exhibited. In addition, the fact that the operation of “stab cutting”, which cannot be performed with a fork, was made possible by the trapezoidal comb and its U-shaped crotch and the curvature of the spoon itself.

In addition, the fourth crotch portion from the tip of the obliquely cracked spoon is V-shaped and the gap is set as narrow as 1 mm, so that it is also effective to “crawl” even hard-to-find items such as raw egg lump.
Moreover, when the egg is stirred, the sol form of egg white is difficult to cut. The obliquely cracked spoon of the present invention has a comb-like cross section formed in a trapezoidal shape, so that the sol shape can be hooked and cut and mixed with egg yolk.

  By making the handle of the obliquely cracked spoon into an elevation angle of 30 degrees, the comb's crotch U-shape and the tableware are brought into close contact with each other, and an effect is exerted on the “stab and smash” operation.

  It is a perspective view which shows embodiment of the diagonally cracked spoon of this invention.   It is the elements on larger scale which show the length of the comb of the diagonally cracked spoon, and a clearance gap.   It is the elements on larger scale which show the angle of the comb of the diagonally cracked spoon.   It is the AA line expanded sectional view in FIG. 1 of the comb of the diagonally cracked spoon.   It is a side view which shows the elevation angle of the handle | steering_tool which leveled the scooping part of the diagonally cracked spoon.   It is a figure which shows the embodiment of how to hold | maintain at the time of eating cup noodles with the diagonally cracked spoon.   It is a figure which shows the embodiment of how to hold when slicing or piercing raw egg karaza with the diagonally cracked spoon.   It is a top view of the conventional fork for care.   It is a top view of the conventional spoon combined fork.   It is the elements on larger scale of the conventional fork type cooking utensil.   It is a top view of the conventional spoon for noodles.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 1, four combs 4, 5, 6, 7 are provided obliquely near the tip of the scooping portion 1.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the length of each comb from the tip to the crotch is 20 mm, 5 · 6 is 22 mm, and 7 is 12 mm. The width of the comb 4 from the tip of the comb to the crotch is 10 mm, 5 · 6 · 7 is 4 mm, and the tip is slightly narrowed. The gap between the comb and the entrance 10 is about 2.6 mm, and the crotch 8 side is 2 mm and is U-shaped. The crotch 9 of the fourth gap 10 from the tip is V-shaped, particularly 1 mm. The length of the four combs is adjusted according to the size of the spoon.

As shown in FIG. 3, four comb-like portions 11 are provided at 70 ° ± 10 ° with respect to the center line 3 of the handle.
The size of the scooping portion is 45 mm for the vertical width 12 and 36 mm for the horizontal width 13. The entire scooping part is formed in an oval shape.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the comb-like portion is formed in a trapezoidal shape in the AA line enlarged sectional view in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 5, it is the figure which looked at the diagonally cracked spoon from the side, and 14 is about 170 mm in general in full length. When the scooping part is leveled, the elevation angle 15 of the handle is provided at 30 degrees.

  The operation of the above configuration will be described below. As shown in FIG. 6, it is a figure at the time of having cup diagonal noodles and eating cup noodles. If you move the spoon slightly downwards, the noodles will be caught on the trapezoidal combs 4, 5, 6 and 7, and when you move them to the mouth, you can make a series of movements without waste, and the comb-like parts will be natural. You can eat in the direction of the mouth. Also, the formation of the entire scooping portion is elliptical, the contact of the vessel is good, the last noodles are easy to catch and the ingredients are easy to scoop. Furthermore, the elevation angle of the handle is set to 30 degrees with respect to the scooping portion, thereby exhibiting an effect that scooping is easy.

  As shown in FIG. 7, it is a figure at the time of removing the raw egg karaza with the slanting tip crack spoon. Put the calaza between 7 and 10 and hook it with the V-shaped 9, then scoop it up with the scooping part horizontal. When mixing egg white and egg yolk when eating egg-laden rice, if it is moved by the vertical elliptical motion with the holding method shown in FIG. Demonstrate the effect of matching.

  In addition, when eating a hamburger or the like in the manner of holding in FIG. 7, it can be stabbed by stabping it with trapezoidal combs 4, 5, and 6 and rubbing the three U-shapes 8 and the plate. Furthermore, the fact that the elevation angle of the handle is set to 30 degrees also has a good effect when stabbed. The basic dimensions and how to hold were explained, but if the scooping part is made small and the number of combs is three, it can be applied as a service spoon for children and pots. As mentioned above, according to this embodiment, an effect is acquired as a tableware of a wide meal.
