Holder for a tea filter bag

The present innovation relates to a holder made of plastic and equipped with a handle for a tea filter bag.

A holder for a tea filter bag is known that consists of consists of two parts. One part is a ring with a conical extension onto which the tea filter bag is placed is pushed on and the other part is a receiving ring provided with a handle. On the conical formed ring is, as already mentioned, a tea filter

bag and then this ring is inserted together with the tea filter bag from above into the retaining ring and due to the conicity of the ring receiving the tea filter bag, the tea filter bag is clamped between the mentioned conical ring and the retaining ring possible.

Apart from the fact that such a two-part holder

• for a tea filter bag because of its two-part design

is expensive to manufacture, the main disadvantage of such a holder is that its handling is very cumbersome by a consumer.

The task of the present innovation is therefore to provide a holder for a tea filter bag of the type mentioned at the beginning to make it so that this one-piece design a comfortable handling and safe holding a Tea filter bag guaranteed.

The solution to this problem is, according to the innovation, that an annular connector is formed on the handle, Q) which is radially slotted at one point.

As a result, the nozzle can be reduced in diameter by squeezing it, after which a Te, efiltertasche can be pushed onto the nozzle and clamped to it by letting go of the nozzle. As the tea filter bag is only attached by tension on the connection piece of the holder, an additional component is unnecessary and thus wp "den considerable manufacturing and material costs saved.

To enable a tea filter bag to be attached to the

easier, is provided according to a further embodiment of the innovation that the connecting piece at its lower end | l is tapered.

Another idea of the innovation is that the '" 5 connecting piece is provided in its cylindrical part with circumferential, barb-like grooves or with a large number of / barb-like cams.

i | This improves the hold of a tea filter bag, so that

I also run the risk of having this tea filter after

The holder for a tea filter bag 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 are each made in one piece from plastic.

Regardless of the various embodiments described in 1 to 4 are shown and will be described in more detail, all holders are equipped with a handle 2, Λ on which handle an annular connector 3 is formed.

This annular connecting piece is provided at one point with a slot 4 which runs in the radial direction. Thus, the nozzle 3 can be compressed and in his Circumference or | n its diameter can be reduced, what the sliding of the tea filter bag 1 onto the nozzle 3 is allowed. After releasing the compressed connector 3, the tea filter bag 1 is clamped to the connector 3.

The ring-shaped connecting piece is expediently tapered conically at its lower end, as can be seen very clearly 1, 3 and 4 proceed. Because of this conical taper the attachment of the tea filter bag 1 to the annular nozzle 3 is considerably facilitated.

In the embodiment of the innovation according to Fig. 1, the connecting piece 5ausgestattet 3 in its cylindrical part with a ^v ielzahl of barb-like cams which cam 5 provide an additional support for the Teefiltertüte 1. In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 4, this additional hold for the tea filter bag 1 is ensured by a plurality of circumferential and barb-like grooves 6.

As can be seen from Fig. 2, the slot 4 of the connecting piece 3 is arranged adjacent to the handle in this embodiment. At the end of the connector 3 facing away from the handle 2, a grip cam 7 is integrally formed, which facilitates the compression of the connector 3 by a user of the holder. In the embodiment r according to FIG. 2, a bracket 8 is formed on the side opposite the handle, which bracket

serves together with the handle 2 and the handle cam 7 as a support for the entire holder.

In the embodiment according to FIG. 3, the slot is arranged on the side of the connecting piece 3 opposite the handle 2. On both sides of the slit 7 are formed on the nozzle 3 Griffno-CKEN which allow the compression of the sleeve 3 in a convenient way and ^s way. Because the lower boundary surfaces

this grip cam 7 in a plane with the lower boundary surface of the handle 2 are arranged, these grip cams 7 simultaneously form together with the hand 2o grabbed 2 the supports for the entire holder.

As can be seen from Fig.l, 3 and 4, the cylindrical Part of the nozzle 3 reinforced by a circumferential bead 9, which has the advantage that the restoring force of the compressed Stub 3 is enlarged, since this stub 3 is stiffened by the circumferential bead 9. Furthermore, the circumferential ulst 9 forms a natural boundary for the upper edge of a pushed-on tea filter bag 1.

Of course, the innovation is not limited to those in the
