Description

Measuring spoon

Field of the Invention

The purpose of this utility model is to a spoon or teaspoon of those used to dose materials, especially powder type, or granular and in which the same spoon bowl represents the measure to be dosed, with the particularity that it has a rod to make up for that spoon bowl and discard the product protruding from the upper plane of the bowl.

Background

With the dissemination to the population as a whole of the customs of hygiene in the serving and handling of food or other substances, the cutlery and among them the spoon have become a daily tool, existing in all homes in the most varied forms and used in a plurality of situations
tion

Unlike the liquid materials service that are self-leveling in the cavity of the spoon or saucepan due to its liquid nature itself, the same does not happen when the material serving is granular or powdery. In these cases the spoons of measure and / or dose, which usually have a saucepan and in some occasions of measuring scales should be flush eliminating the surplus material that exceeds a certain level.

Although a wide variety of spoons are known dosing machines with means to measure their content, mainly liquid, no spoon is known that incorporates a means of remove pasty, powdery or surplus material granular.

For example, the Spanish utility model ES0224467U describes a blade that has a movable partition by the bucket or cavity of the spoon, said cavity being of form approximately semi-parallelepiped, which doses in combination with a scale represented in the profile of the ladle bucket.

The Spanish utility model ES0295155U develops another shovel that flows into a container with scales of measure so that we can know the amount of material loaded on the shovel

There is, however, the need to provide to said basic utensil, the spoon, when used in functions of dosing, for example by means of a bowl that serves as measure of a substance, both for food and medical purposes or others, and the material used is pasty, granular or powdery, the means to make up its contents so that the leftover material of the measure.

The main object of the present invention is therefore providing a measuring spoon for dissociations pasty, powdery or granular that incorporates a means of flush that eliminates the remaining product of the measure.

Another of the preferred objects of the present invention is that the spoon provided be aesthetically nice and easy to use as corresponds to such a useful daily intended for use in the most varied conditions of our life.

And it is still another object of the present invention that said spoon, for its constructive form and materials training, be economical in its manufacture.

These and other advantages of the present invention they will become more evident throughout the description of it.

Brief Description of the Invention

The present invention develops a spoon dosing, especially for granular materials and substances or powdery, which essentially incorporates a flush device which removes the excess substance that protrudes from the measure formed by the bowl of the spoon.

Said threading device is a rod that is linked to the handle of the spoon with movement capacity, which causes the sweep of the upper plane of the concavity of the spoon.

The preferred embodiment also incorporates a guide for the travel of said rod which is also a stop lateral, while at the opposite end of the path of said rod there is another side stop.

Brief explanation of the drawings

For a better understanding of the invention, accompanies with a sheet of drawings, for illustrative purposes only and non-limiting of the invention, in which the same numbers identifiers correspond along them with the same elements.

Figure 1 is an elevation view of a preferred embodiment according to the present invention.

Figure 2 is a plan view of Figure above showing a preferred embodiment of the invention.

Figure 3 is a perspective representation of the embodiment shown in the two previous figures.

Detailed Explanation of the Invention

The present invention consists of a spoon dispenser, of the type that has a handle (2) and cavity or bowl (4), used to dose mainly granular substances and / or powdery, which has a rod (3) in length convenient linked with movement capacity to said handle (2), in which said movement of said rod (3) makes up the limit upper of said bowl (4).

The spoon can be of any size or shape, within the specificities of the invention, being in its preferred embodiment made entirely of material plastic.

In the preferred embodiment shown in the drawings that accompany the memory, the rod (3) flush of said bowl (4) and the handle (2) of the spoon (1) are joined by its base which in turn constitutes the foothold for flexion and movement of said rod (3).

The movement of said rod (3) is delimited by a guide (5) superior whose layer (8) of linking to the spoon (1) also limits the lateral movement of the rod (3) out of the bowl (4), while said movement of the rod (3) in the opposite direction is limited, in turn, by another side stop (6).

In one of the embodiments of the invention, provided on the surface of said rod (3) means of support (7) to facilitate the application of one or more fingers by User part of it.

The use of the spoon of the invention is simple, it is enough to press the rod (3) against the handle (2) of the spoon (1), so that the movement of the free end of the rod (3) produce the flush of the bowl (4).

The invention provides for other embodiments. constructive within its inventive object. For example you can make the spoon with any other materials, metallic, ceramic, wood, etc. Even the linkage of the rod (3) to the spoon (1) can be performed by a scissor mechanism, incorporate recovery springs, etc. It can even be replaced the rod (3) by any other screed means that performs the same function.

Similarly, the rod (3) can adopt any convenient shape or size, without changing the essence of the invention.

It is understood that in the present case they can be variable how many finishing details and shape do not modify the essence of the invention.
