Folded tableware

Stacked tableware

The present invention relates to a stacked tableware, in particular, the handle of the stacked tableware is pivotally connected by a plurality of grips, so that the user can rotate the stacked tableware into a length of a single grip for carrying.

In recent years, due to the rapid development of the economy and the improvement of the quality of life, in addition to paying attention to whether the product is cheap and durable, people will judge whether the product is safe, convenient, easy to use and even conform to when purchasing a new product. Environmental protection? In order to decide whether to buy, the manufacturers of all walks of life must constantly improve the product development to meet the needs of most customers. For example, in the past, in order to save costs, in the past, in order to save costs, the restaurant often used cheaper disposable tableware, such as bamboo chopsticks, plastic cutlery, etc. However, since many unscrupulous people are producing disposable tableware, Many chemicals will be added to disinfect or bleach disposable tableware, so users can easily eat the chemicals that remain on the disposable tableware, which is harmful to the human body. In addition, bamboo or wooden disposable tableware will inevitably A large number of trees are cut down, and plastic disposable tableware is difficult to be decomposed by nature, which has far-reaching adverse effects on the global environment and climate. Therefore, in recent years, environmentally-friendly movements of self-made tableware have gradually emerged to form various styles. The tableware filled the scene of the market.

Generally speaking, in order to enable users to carry tableware with them, in order to meet the needs of the time, the current design and production of various tablewares are based on "convenience" and "portability" as the most important design direction. The combination tableware is the most bulky, and the combination tableware divides the tableware into a plurality of components, so that when the combination tableware is not used, it can be disassembled and assembled for carrying, as shown in Fig. 1, which is a very common one. The combination table 1 includes a handle 11 and a main body 13 . The handle 11 has a locking hole 110 at one end. The locking end 131 is protruded from one end of the main body 13 . The main body 13 can be attached to one end of the handle 11 so that the user can hold the handle 11 to operate the combined tableware 1 so that the user does not need to When the combined cutlery 1 is used, the main body 13 can be detached for carrying with it, but the combined cutlery 1 can be easily disassembled and dispensed, but in practical use, the combined cutlery 1 still has A number of inadequacies are detailed below:

(1) Insufficient structural strength: As shown in Fig. 1, the main body 13 is only locked to the end of the grip 11 through the locking portion 131, and therefore, the combined tableware 1 and the hard object (such as: When the bone or the plate is in contact with each other and a lateral force is generated, the connection portion between the handle 11 and the main body 13 is easily broken by force.

(2) Time-consuming assembly procedure: In the concept of most users, the tableware should be a product that can be intuitively used after being taken out. Therefore, the assembly method of the combination tableware should be as simple and quick as possible, and the user's desire to purchase can be improved. However, when assembling the combined tableware 1 , the user not only needs to first align the locking portion 131 with the locking hole 110 , but also needs to be screwed and positioned to install the main body 13 to the handle 11 . In this way, this assembly method is still too time-consuming and troublesome in operation, and there is still room for improvement.

(3) Poor portability: Generally speaking, the length of the handle 11 must be 15 cm or more, which can be held by the user flexibly. Therefore, the length of the combined tableware 1 cannot be reduced to 15 when carried. Below the centimeter, it is not convenient for the user to carry around, although the operator can decompose the handle 11 into a plurality of components and assemble them with the same locking design. However, as can be seen from the foregoing analysis, the main body 13 and the grip 11 The structural strength between the two is insufficient, and the installation method is relatively time consuming. Therefore, if the operator disassembles the handle 11 into a plurality of components, the defects of the combined tableware 1 will be more prominently highlighted. (ie: more time consuming, lower structural strength), and can not solve the problem of the grip of the combined tableware 1 being too long.

Therefore, how to design a tableware not only has sufficient structural strength, but also the user can carry it with great convenience and quickly take it out during eating, which is an important problem that the present invention is intended to solve.

In view of the fact that the traditional tableware is not suitable for carrying around, and the various assembled tableware on the market has the disadvantages of insufficient structural strength and troublesome assembly, the creator has finally designed the design after many years of practical experience and after many experiments and researches. A stacked tableware created by this creation can provide people with more convenient choices.

One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a stacked tableware comprising a main body and a handle, the main body (which can be a spoon or a knife and fork) for processing food; the handle is held by a plurality of handles The portions are pivotally connected to each other, and one end thereof is pivotally connected to the main body, and each of the grip portions can be respectively rotated in the direction of the main body, so that the grip portions and the main body can overlap each other to form a fold. a state, or the grips are rotatable away from the body such that the grips do not overlap the body and are respectively positionable on a centerline of the body and form an unfolded state, and each The frictional force of the pivotal portion between the grip portions or the frictional force of the pivotal portion between the grip and the main body is greater than the frictional force that can freely rotate between them. In this way, the user can rotate the stacked tableware into a folded state for convenient carrying, and the user can easily unfold the handle when the user only needs to rotate the grips during the meal, so that the handle can be easily The holding portions can be positioned one by one on the center line of the main body, and then held by the user to operate the stacked tableware. Moreover, since the holding portions and the main system are closely pivoted into one body, no habits are generated. It is known that the structural strength of the assembled tableware is insufficient and the assembly is time-consuming and the like.

Another object of the present invention is that a stop portion is protruded from the portion corresponding to the handle on the main body, so that one end of the handle can be combined with the grip portion rotating away from the main body. The stops abut against each other so that the grips can be accurately positioned on the centerline of the body.

In order to make the review committee able to have a further understanding and understanding of the technical means, structural features and purposes of this creation, the following examples are combined with the drawings, which are described in detail as follows:

The present invention is a stacked tableware, as shown in FIG. 2, which is a first preferred embodiment of the present invention. The stacked tableware 2 includes a main body 21 and a handle 22, and the main body 21 is configured as a One end of the handle 22 is pivotally connected to the main body 21, and includes a first grip portion 221 and a second grip portion 222, and one end of the first grip portion 221 can be borrowed A pivoting member S1 is pivotally connected to one end of the main body 21, and one end of the second gripping portion 222 can be pivotally connected to the other end of the first gripping portion 221 by a second pivoting member S2. As shown in FIG. 3 , the first grip portion 221 and the second grip portion 222 can be arranged on the center line L of the main body 21 to form an unfolded state, so that the user can hold the grip 22 and operate the stack. When the user does not need to use the stacked tableware 2, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the user only needs to rotate the holding portions 221, 222 in the direction of the main body 21, that is, The holding portions 221 and 222 are superposed on the main body 21 to form a folded state for the user to carry around, and in the embodiment, due to the The length of the holding portions 221, 222 is matched with the main body 21, so when the stacked tableware 2 is in the folded state, the length of the stacked tableware 2 can be equal to the second holding portion 222 (such as the fourth As shown in the figure), when the user needs to dine, the grips 221, 222 need only be rotated away from the main body 21, so that the grips 221, 222 can be extended to the main body 21. On the center line L, the stacked tableware 2 is returned to the unfolded state.

Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 , in the embodiment, a portion of the main body 21 corresponding to the first holding portion 221 is further provided with a first stopping portion 210 , and the first holding portion 221 The other end edge is convexly provided with a second stopping portion 221a, and when the stacked tableware 2 is in the unfolded state, the first stopping portion 210 and the second stopping portion 221a are located in the same shape of the stacked tableware 2 The side edge of the first grip portion 221 and the end edge of the second grip portion 222 in the case where the grip portions 221 and 222 are rotated away from the main body 21 to restore the unfolded state. That is, the first stopper portion 210 and the second stopper portion 221a can be respectively abutted, so that the grip portions 221 and 222 can be accurately positioned on the center line L of the main body 21.

In particular, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, each of the pivoting members S1, S2 is a rivet and can be deformed by itself. The first holding portion 221 is caulked to the main body 21, and one end of the second holding portion 222 is tightly riveted to the other end of the first holding portion 221, so that each of the holding portions 221 The frictional force of the 222 pivotal portions, or the frictional force of the pivotal portion between the handle 22 and the main body 21, can be greater than the frictional force that can freely rotate with each other, so that when the stacked tableware 2 is in the unfolded state, Each of the grip portions 221, 222 can be stably positioned on the center line L of the main body 21 without being easily biased by force.

Referring to Figure 2, the stacked tableware 2 of the present invention has the following three advantages compared with the conventional combination tableware:

(1) Easy to carry: Since the lengths of the grip portions 221, 222 are matched with the main body 21, when the stacked tableware 2 is in the folded state, the overall configuration length will be equivalent to each of the grip portions. The length of 221, 222 makes the stacked tableware 2 more convenient for the user to carry around.

(2) The structural strength is large: the holding portions 221 and 222 are connected through the second pivoting member S2, so that the structural strength can be strengthened, and since the stacked tableware 2 is assembled in a pivotal manner, Therefore, in the case where the stacked tableware 2 touches a hard object (such as a bone or a plate), the external force received by the stacked tableware 2 at most causes the grip portions 221, 222 to deviate from the center line of the main body 21, Without the damage to the structure of the grip 22, the durability of the stacked cutlery 2 will far exceed that of conventional combination cutlery.

(3) The operation is simple and quick: the user only needs to rotate the grips 221, 222, that is, the stacked tableware 2 can be unfolded or folded, so that the user needs to assemble the stacked tableware 2 greatly The operation action makes the laminated tableware 2 more intuitive and less time consuming to use.

In the foregoing embodiment, the main body 21 of the stacked tableware 2 has a configuration of one tablespoon. However, in other preferred embodiments of the present invention, the configuration of the stacked tableware 2 is not drawn in the second drawing. The configuration of the second preferred embodiment of the present invention is also shown in FIG. 5. The stacked table 5 also includes a main body 51 and a handle 52. The main body 51 is configured as a The handle 52 is pivotally connected to the first grip portion 521 and the second grip portion 522, and one end of the handle 52 is pivotally connected to the main body 51. Each of the grip portions 521 and 522 can Rotating in the direction of the main body 51, respectively, so that the grip portions 521, 522 and the main body 51 can overlap each other and form a collapsed state, or the grip portions 521, 522 can be rotated away from the main body 51. The grip portions 521, 522 and the main body 51 do not overlap each other and form an unfolded state. In addition, the stacked tableware 5 of the present invention can be changed according to the needs of the manufacturer, for example, the main body 51 is designed as a knife or a chopstick, and the number of grips of the handle 52 is not limited to two. Chen Ming.

Referring to FIG. 2, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the width of the other end of the second grip portion 222 is greater than the width of one end thereof, so that the user holds the stacked tableware 2 At the same time, the other end of the second grip portion 222 can be configured to match the palm of the user's hand to enhance the grip and comfort of the stacked tableware 2. Moreover, a recessed portion 221b is further recessed in a portion adjacent to one end of the first grip portion 221, so that the handle 22 can be stably placed on the tray through the recess portion 221b during the user's eating process. To maintain the clean and clean of the stacked tableware 2.

According to the above, it is only a few embodiments of the present invention. However, the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto, and those skilled in the relevant technical fields can easily think of the equivalent after considering the technical content of the present invention. Changes should not be divorced from the scope of protection of this creation.
