Description

  TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a whisk that stirs food to make foam, and more particularly to a whisk that can be opened and closed to facilitate cleaning of the whisk.

Conventionally, many whisks have a plurality of filaments in a loop shape and are generally formed into an insulator shape, etc., but a plurality of loops are arranged side by side without an insulator shape, and the tip is curved. There are those that electrically drive the two rods that are configured.
Except for the two rods that are electrically driven, the wire with a loop is clogged with food at the end of the curb, so the entire whisk is shaken to remove the clogging. It was.
In addition, when the whisk is temporarily placed in a container such as a ball, the tip of the whisk may slip and the entire whisk may be buried in the food in the container.
JP 2005-013249 A

  An object of the present invention is to provide a whisk that is free from clogging of the tip and prevents the tip of the whisk from slipping and the entire whisk from being buried in the food in the container even when temporarily placed in a container such as a ball. .

  The present invention is characterized by including a bifurcated handle whose tip can be opened and closed, and a foaming portion comprising a plurality of filaments attached to and extending from both tip portions of the handle.

  The handle has elasticity in a direction in which the tip end is opened, and the tip is closed by pressing against the elasticity.

  The foaming portion is curved so that a plurality of filaments are convex outward, and when the tip portion is closed, the filaments are combined to form an insulator type.

  The plurality of filaments constituting the foaming portion are characterized in that an arcuate curved portion is continuously provided in the distal direction of the linear portion, and a spherical head is provided at the distal end of the curved portion.

  A protrusion that is hooked to an external member is provided on the foaming portion side of the handle.

  The foam side is provided with a hook that is hooked to an external member on the handle side.

According to the whisk of the present invention, when clogging occurs at the tip during use of the whisk, the bifurcated handle is opened to open the tip of the frothing portion, and the clog is easily removed to continue the work. You can continue.
In addition, when temporarily placing the whisk in the middle of using the whisk, it is possible to embed the whisk in the food in the container by hooking the pattern protrusion or the striated hook on the edge of the container. Can be prevented.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a whisk of the present invention. The whisk 1 includes a bifurcated handle 2 and a whisk made of a plurality of filaments attached to both ends of the bifurcated handle 2. Part 3.
The bifurcated handle 2 is made of phenolic resin having a diameter of 15 mm and a length of 150 mm, and the bifurcated handle 2 is made into a bifurcated shape by joining one end of each of the two handles to give an elastic force to the joint portion. ing.

Scattered lotus-like filaments 3 made of a plurality of loop filaments are attached to both ends of the handle 2.
Due to the elastic force of the two handles 2, the tip of the scattered lotus-like striate of the foamed portion 3 is normally open at about 15 °.
The scattered lotus-like striated body 3 is formed by looping a stainless steel wire having a diameter of 0.5 mm into a lotus-like shape as a whole.

As shown in FIG. 2, the bifurcated handle 2 is provided with a protrusion 4 that can be hooked on the edge of the container on the side of the foaming portion, and when the foaming operation is interrupted, the protrusion 4 of the handle 2 is It can be hooked on the edge of the container.
As shown in FIG. 3, instead of the protrusions 4 of the handle 2, hooks 5 may be provided on the side to be attached to the handle of the foaming portion so as to be hooked on the edge of the container.

FIG. 4 shows Example 2 of the whisk of the present invention. The whisk 1 includes a bifurcated handle 2 and a plurality of filaments attached to both ends of the bifurcated handle 2. And a whipping unit 3.
The bifurcated handle 2 is made of stainless steel having a plate thickness of 0.6 mm and a width of 15 mm, and the length of the handle is 150 mm. The handle 2 is obtained by bending a stainless steel plate with a curvature of 10 mm.

At both ends of the stainless steel handle 2, five stainless steel wires with a diameter of 0.5 mm are attached to each end.
The foaming portion 3 has a total length of 100 mm, of which a straight portion is 50 mm, the tip of the straight portion is processed into an arc having a radius of 50 mm, and a stainless steel head 7 having a diameter of 2 mm is attached to the tip of the arc.

FIG. 5 shows another embodiment of the whisk of the present invention. The whisk 1 is composed of two handles 2 and a plurality of filaments attached to both ends of the two handles 2. And a whipping unit 3.
The handle 2 is made of stainless steel having a plate thickness of 0.6 mm and a width of 15 mm, and the length of the handle is 150 mm. The root portions of the two handles 2 are connected so that the handle can be opened and closed, and a spring 6 is attached between the two handles so that the tip of the foaming portion 3 is opened by the spring 6. ing.

Below, the usage method of the whisk 1 by this invention is demonstrated.
When foaming food using the whisk 1, the handle 2 is grasped to close the tip of the foaming portion, and the foam is immersed in the food and rotated.
When the whisk 1 is immersed in the food and rotated, the food will be deposited on the closed tip of the whisk. If the accumulation of food increases and extra force is required for rotation, or if the foaming cannot be performed efficiently even if the whisk is rotated due to the accumulation of food, the body is held. Loosen the force and open the tip of the foaming part.

  When the whipping part is opened, the food material deposited on the tip part naturally leaves the whipping part and falls into the food material reservoir. Even when there is a food that does not leave, it can be easily removed with a brush or a brush because the tip of the foamed portion is open.

In the whisk 1 of the present invention, it is possible to easily drop the food material deposit at the tip portion by opening the handle of the main body portion even during the foaming operation, so that the foaming operation can be performed very efficiently.
Moreover, when temporarily placing the whisk 1 during use of the whisk 1, the whisk 1 is placed in the food in the container by hooking the protrusion 4 of the handle or the hook 5 of the striate on the edge of the container. Can be prevented from being buried.

It is a perspective view which shows the Example of the whisk by this invention, and shows the state which the front-end | tip closed and opened. It is the figure which attached the protrusion to the handle of the whisk according to the present invention. It is the figure which attached the hook to the foaming part of the whisk of the present invention. It is a perspective view which shows another Example of the whisk by this invention. It is a perspective view which shows another Example of the whisk by this invention.
