Abstract
Description
La présente invention conceme une pince pour saisir, sans les toucher avec les doigts, des aliments dont la forme ou la présentation convierait à la préhension manuelle.The present invention relates to a gripper for grasping, without touching them with the fingers, food the shape or presentation of which would suit manual gripping.
Certains aliments sont parfois présentés pour être saisis à la main, d'autres sont difficilement saisissables avec les couverts habituels et une prise manuelle serait plus aisée . La prise manuelle de ces aliments exige la propreté préalable des mains et nécessite de se les nettoyer après ou pendant l'alimentation . Dans certains cas la chaleur de l'aliment ne permet pas un contact direct avec les doigts.Some foods are sometimes presented to be entered by hand, others are difficult to enter with the usual cutlery and a manual intake would be easier. The manual intake of these foods requires prior cleanliness of the hands and requires cleaning them after or during feeding. In some cases the heat of the food does not allow direct contact with the fingers.
L'utilisation d'une pince remplaçant la prise manuelle sans en ôter la commodité permet de remédier à ces inconvénients
L'invention est une pince en plastique que l'on place entre les doigts et qui est constituée de deux coques reliées par une articulation souple qui maintient les coques écartées tant que l'utilisateur n'exerce pas de pression sur celles-ci dans le cas contraire les deux coques viennent se refermer sur l'aliment et ceci permet de le saisir pour le porter à la bouche.The use of pliers replacing the manual grip without removing its convenience overcomes these drawbacks
The invention is a plastic clamp which is placed between the fingers and which consists of two shells connected by a flexible articulation which keeps the shells apart as long as the user does not exert pressure on them in the otherwise the two shells come to close on the food and this allows to grasp it to bring it to the mouth.
De par sa conception l'aspect de la pince peut être varié et attrayant, puisque la fabrication du dispositif, par moulage ou emboutissage par exemple, permet l'obtention de coques de différentes formes. Par exemple, la pince , pour être attrayante, peut représenter une tête d'animal,un coquillage bivalve etc.. Elle peut être aussi adaptée à l'aliment à saisir
Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention: - La figure 1 représente la pince de forme basique.By design, the appearance of the clamp can be varied and attractive, since the manufacture of the device, by molding or stamping for example, makes it possible to obtain shells of different shapes. For example, the tongs, to be attractive, can represent an animal head, a bivalve shell, etc. It can also be adapted to the food to be grasped
The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: - Figure 1 shows the clamp in basic form.
- La figure 2 représente une pince en forme de tête d'oiseau et sa manipulation - La figure 3 représente l'application à la saisie de frites.- Figure 2 shows a pliers in the shape of a bird's head and its handling - Figure 3 shows the application to the seizure of fries.
- La figure 4 représente une pince dont la coque supérieure a été sectionnée pour visualisation du profil.- Figure 4 shows a clamp whose upper shell has been cut to view the profile.
- la figure S représente une pince de forme particulière. - Figure S shows a clamp of particular shape.
En référence à ces dessins, la pince comporte les deux coques (1) et (3) et l'articulation (2).With reference to these drawings, the clamp comprises the two shells (1) and (3) and the joint (2).
La coque inférieure (3) est maintenue par le pouce et la coque supérieure (1) est maintenue par un ou plusieurs des autres doigts de la main. Eventuellement des surfaces favorisant le maintien de la pince peuvent exister sur les coques (Fig.4). L'articulation (2) écarte les coques de façon suffisante à la préhension des aliments.The lower shell (3) is held by the thumb and the upper shell (1) is held by one or more of the other fingers of the hand. Possibly surfaces favoring the maintenance of the clamp may exist on the shells (Fig. 4). The joint (2) spreads the shells sufficiently to grip the food.
Les coques peuvent avoir différentes formes et sont ainsi plus attrayantes (ex: en forme de tête d'oiseau Fig.2) ou mieux adaptées à l'aliment à saisir car épousant sa forme ou même elles peuvent combiner les deux particularités (ex pince en forme de tête d'oiseau, plus particulièrement adaptée à la saisie d'aliments de forme ovoïde tels que olives, cacahuètes ect.: Fig.S)
L'articulation est une zone de moindre épaisseur obtenue lors de la fabrication du système puis pliée de manière à: - pouvoir obtenir la fermeture des coques par pression sur celles-ci, jusqu'à la saisie de l'aliment.The hulls can have different shapes and are therefore more attractive (e.g. in the shape of a bird's head Fig. 2) or better suited to the food to be grasped because it matches its shape or even they can combine the two features (e.g. shape of a bird's head, more particularly suitable for entering ovoid-shaped foods such as olives, peanuts ect .: Fig.S)
The joint is an area of reduced thickness obtained during the manufacture of the system and then folded so as to: - be able to obtain the closing of the shells by pressing on them, until the food is seized.
- écarter suffisamment les pinces pour pouvoir saisir les aliments.- move the tongs apart enough to be able to grasp the food.
Ce type d'articulation est aisément réalisable par un homme de métier.This type of joint is easily achievable by a skilled person.
Ce dispositif est particulièrement adapté à la préhension de frites servies sans couvert dans les restaurations rapides mais son utilisation peut être facilement étendue à d'autres aliments.This device is particularly suitable for gripping French fries served uncovered in fast food restaurants, but its use can be easily extended to other foods.
Le dispositif peut être obtenu par moulage, emboutissage ou autres moyens de transformation de matériaux piastiques. The device can be obtained by molding, stamping or other means of processing piastic materials.
