Definitions

  • the invention relates to a travel eating utensils, comprising a food tool with an adjoining short handle and a handle that is detachably connectable with the short handle to a complete handle of the cutlery.
  • the handle is a chopstick that can be used as such separately from the short handle.
  • a travel cutlery should be as small and light as possible. Furthermore, there is the problem that a travel eating utensils z. B. is used at a picnic in places where there is not enough water available to clean it.
  • the invention is thus based on the object to provide a travel cutlery, which is designed so that it does not need to be cleaned before use and that it can be stowed even after use so that it itself is not the source of a Pollution is.
  • the handle forms a casket for receiving the eating utensil.
  • the handle is connected to the eating tool or its short handle, so that a long handle is formed, with which the cutlery can be used as usual.
  • the eating utensil is placed in the box so that it is protected from contamination and does not itself form the source of contamination.
  • the handle consists of two shells, which are interconnected by a hinge.
  • the hinge may preferably be a living hinge. This hinge is preferably formed at the distal end of the handle.
  • the folded long sides of the two shells are provided with detents, so that when folded, a stable grip is created.
  • the proximal end of the two shells groove-like recesses are provided, which form a channel in the folded state, in which the short stem comes to rest.
  • the short stem itself two openings are formed. Through each one of these a spike on the inside of the shells passes through, so that the eating utensil is firmly connected to the handle. Depending on which opening is chosen, the short stalk protrudes more or less into the handle, so that the handle of the eating utensil altogether a little shorter or longer fails.
  • the channel and the cross section of the short stalk can each be of identical mirror-symmetrical design so that the short stem and the handle can be arranged in a first orientation or in a second orientation rotated by 180 ° relative to one another. Since both the eating tool relative to the short handle and the hinge end of the handle are slightly tilted relative to the main part of the handle, depending on the orientation results in a slightly S-shaped or a slightly curved course of the cutlery as a whole.
  • the trays for closing the handle are preferably provided with detents at the proximal end, which hold the trays together and thus close the handle.
  • the holding force of the detents is designed so that the short handle is held securely with an outwardly projecting eating tool on the handle.
  • Fig. 2 is a travel spoon in the form of use with an unfolded handle and
  • Fig. 3 is a travel spoon in the storage form, also with an unfolded handle.
  • the spoon consists of a food tool, in this case a scoop 1 of a spoon, followed by a short stem 2. This is connected to a handle 3, so that the handle 3 and the short stem 2 result in a comfortable to hold in the hand long stick from which the scoop 1 protrudes.
  • a handle 3 there is the Handle 3 of two corresponding shells, namely a lower shell 4 and an upper shell 5, which are connected to each other at their distal - the remote from the eating tool - ends by a film hinge 6.
  • both shells 4, 5 each have a continuous web 13, 14, wherein these overlap each other in the closed state of the handle.
  • the web 14 extends to the upper shell 5 at its outer edge, so that its outer side merges flush into the outer contour of the upper shell 5.
  • the web 13 on the lower shell 4 is slightly inwardly set, so that an outer shoulder is formed, in which the web 14 of the upper shell 5 engages.
  • a groove 7, 8 is provided in the shells, which form a channel for receiving the short stem 2 in the folded state.
  • the cross section of the channel corresponds to the cross section of the short stem 2.
  • a projection 9, 10 which together form a mandrel in the folded state of the shells.
  • the shells 4, 5 are provided with detents.
  • the lower shell 4 has on both sides in each case an outwardly pointing elongate locking projection 15, 16 and the upper shell 5 on both sides of a tongue, on the inside of each an elongated recess 17, 18 for receiving the associated locking projection 15, 16 is formed.
  • the handle 3 is opened and the short handle 2 placed in the channel 7 of the lower shell 4, so that the scoop 1 is outside the handle.
  • the projection 9 engages in a first hole 11 of the stem. If the cutlery should be a little shorter, a second hole 12 is selected, which is closer to the scoop 1 as the first hole 11. Then, the shells 4, 5 are folded, wherein the projection 10 in the upper shell 5 also in the first hole 11 and second hole 12 engages. The mandrel formed thereby holds the short stem 2 on the handle 3 and prevents the scoop part 1 from being pulled out of the handle 3. Since the two shells 4, 5 are clipped together, sufficient stability is achieved in order to use the eating utensil as usual.
  • scoop 1 and handle 3 results over the length of the cutlery considered a slightly S-shaped course.
  • the scoop 1 with the short stem 2 can also be rotated about a longitudinal axis by 180 ° relative to the handle used in this, so that the cutlery forms a light one-sided arc over its length.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un couvert de voyage composé d'un ustensile de table, par ex., d'un élément destiné à puiser (1) prolongé par un manche court (2) et une poignée (3). La poignée (3) est formée de deux coques (4,5) reliées entre elles par leurs extrémités distales et une charnière (6). En mode d'utilisation comme couvert, le manche court (2) est disposé dans un canal formé par les coques (4,5) rabattues, lequel canal est constitué par des conduits (7,8) situés aux extrémités proximales des coques (4,5), l'ustensile de table étant orienté vers l'extérieur. Les coques (4,5) sont conçues de manière à former un étui pour l'ustensile de table, lequel peut être placé entres lesdites coques (4,5) pour être à l'abri des salissures.
