Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a spoon formed by folding paperboard.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A measuring spoon disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H10-19636, in which a paperboard is bent to form a gripping portion and a measuring portion, comprises a gripping portion formed by folding a gripping piece into a U-shape at the center thereof. In addition, a scooping portion for scooping powder is constituted by a measuring piece continuously provided at a front edge portion of both gripping pieces.

[0003]

The above technique has the following problems. As both grip pieces constituting the grip portion are folded in a U-shape and their outer edges rise upward, the fingers touch the outer edges when holding, and the touch feeling is poor and it is difficult to use.

[0004] The scooping portion is liable to oscillate laterally with respect to the grip portion, making it difficult to scoop and difficult to measure stably.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to improve the tactile sensation of a holding part with a simple structure in a spoon made by folding a paperboard, and to stably support the scooping part by the holding part and make it easy to take out. And to stabilize the measurement.

[0006]

According to the present invention, a gripping portion of a spoon formed by folding a paperboard is further wound around an outer edge portion of one gripping piece of a pair of gripping pieces continuously provided via a folding line. A piece is provided, the wound piece is folded over the outer surface of the other gripping piece, and three paperboards of two gripping pieces and one winding piece are overlapped and locked.

[0007]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A measuring spoon (spoon) 10
Is assembled by bending the paperboard 11 in the unfolded state shown in FIG. 1, and forms the gripping part 12 and the measuring part 13 which is a scooping part for scooping articles in the assembled state shown in FIG.

[0008] The grip portion 12 includes a pair of grip pieces 21 and 22.
And one winding piece 23. Measuring unit 13
Is composed of a measuring piece 31 connected to the gripping pieces 21 and 22 of the gripping part 12 via valley-folding continuous folding lines 41 and 42.

[0009] The grip portion 12 is formed by a pair of grip pieces 21 and 22 having substantially the same shape connected via a valley-folded center folding line 43.
The wrapping piece 23, which is folded in the shape of a letter and extends through the valley fold line 44 over the entire length of the outer edge which is the edge opposite to the valley fold center fold line 43 of the one gripping piece 21, is gripped by the other. Piece 2
Fold over the outer surface of 2. Thereby, both gripping pieces 21, 2
The outer edge of the other gripping piece 22, which rises upward by being folded in a U-shape, is wrapped by the winding piece 23. The valley fold line 44 between the winding piece 23 and one gripping piece 21
Is preferably over the entire length of the outer edge as described above,
It may be short, as long as it can cover the outer edge of the gripping piece 22 so that the finger does not touch it.

[0010] Further, the gripping portion 12 holds the gripping piece 2 in the assembled state.
The push-in portion 51, the locking portion 52, and the locking portion 53 are provided on the portions corresponding to the portions 1, 22, and the winding piece 23, respectively, away from the edges. That is, the pushing portion 51 is formed by an arc-shaped cutting line 51A having a large curvature and a length L1 provided in the plane of the gripping piece 21, and the locking section 52 is formed by a small curvature provided in the plane of the gripping piece 22. The locking portion 53 is formed by a linear cutting line 53A of length L3 provided in the plane of the winding piece 23. Here, L1 <L2 <L3. When the gripping pieces 21 and 22 are folded and the wound piece 23 is wound so as to be folded on the outer surface of the other gripping piece 22, the pushing portion 51 of the gripping piece 21 is pushed in, so that the gripping piece 22 is pressed.
The locking portion 52 of the winding piece 23 is locked to the locking portion 53 of the winding piece 23, and the winding state of the winding piece 23 is fixed, so that the grip portion 12 is assembled. By separating the locking portion from the edges of both gripping pieces, it is possible to further prevent the paperboard from touching a finger when the paperboard is held.

The measuring piece 31 constituting the measuring section 13 has valley fold lines 45 and 46 extending to both sides from the intersection P of the continuous folding lines 41 and 42 with the grip pieces 21 and 22 of the grip section 12. When the gripper 12 is assembled as described above, the weighing section is also assembled, and the portion sandwiched between the folding lines 45 and 46 is the weighing bottom 3.
2. The outer part of both folding lines 45 and 46 is the measuring side 33,
34.

When the measuring spoon 10 is assembled, the front edge 23A of the wrapping piece 23 of the gripper 12 is positioned between the gripping piece 22 of the gripper 12 and the measuring side 34 of the measuring piece 31 of the measuring unit 13. Are arranged so as to overlap the continuous folding line 42. The front edge 23A of the winding piece 23 is made to conform to the above-described continuous folding line 42 or the folding line 4 of the measuring side portion 34 beyond the continuous folding line 42.
By matching the portion along 2, the base of the measuring piece 31 to the gripping piece 22 is supported from the side.

The folding lines 41 to 46 can be constituted by ruled lines or perforations.

According to this embodiment, the following operations are provided. (Operation Corresponding to Claim 1) After the gripping portion 12 folds the pair of gripping pieces 21 and 22 into a U-shape, the gripping portion 12 attaches the winding piece 23 provided continuously to the outer edge of one gripping piece 21. The other gripping piece 22 is folded and locked.
Therefore, the outer edge of the other gripping piece 22 that rises sharply upward when the two gripping pieces 21 and 22 are folded in a U-shape is wrapped by the wrapping piece 23, and the tactile sensation to the user's fingers can be improved. . In addition, since the three pieces of paper are fixed in an overlapping state, the rigidity of the gripping portion is improved.

(Operation according to the embodiment) The front edge 23A of the winding piece 23 of the grip portion 12 is
It was arranged so as to overlap with the continuous folding line 42 at the boundary between 2 and the measuring piece 31. Therefore, the measuring section 13 is formed by the front edge 23A of the winding piece 23.
And supports the base of the measuring unit 13 from the side, so that it is possible to prevent the measuring unit 13 from running laterally with respect to the gripping unit 12.

The locking portions 52 and 53 are provided in the plane of the gripping pieces 21 and 22 and are separated from the edges. By doing so, the winding piece 2
Pushing part 51 and locking part 5 for fixing the wound state of 3
2 and 53 are provided in the plane of the gripping pieces 21 and 22 and the winding piece 23 and do not protrude to the outer periphery of the gripping portion 12, and can improve the tactile sensation of the user's finger.

[0017]

As described above, according to the present invention, in a spoon formed by folding a paperboard, the tactile sensation of the grip portion during use is improved with a simple configuration, and the measuring portion is stably supported by the grip portion. Measurement stability.
