Abstract

(57) [Abstract] [Problem] An object of the present invention is to provide a teapot in which tea leaves are unlikely to be clogged and tea can be continuously poured out without shaking the teapot after pouring hot water. SOLUTION: The tea leaf strainer 5 having a large number of small holes 6 bulging inward from the inner surface of the container 1 is formed to be considerably longer than the conventional one. Preferably,
The container 1 is made horizontally long at an opening in the range of 60 to 90 degrees from the center.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the device belongs]

 The present invention relates to a teapot in which tea leaves are less likely to be clogged.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In general, a teapot has a hollow tea leaf strainer that bulges into a substantially hemispherical shape on the inner wall of a ceramic container with a lid on the top surface. A grip portion is provided so as to project in a right angle direction.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the case of the above conventional teapot, about 10 small holes are normally provided through the strainer for tea leaves, but when the tea leaves are opened by pouring hot water, the small holes are likely to be blocked and the tea delivery becomes poor. Therefore, there is the trouble of having to shake the teapot after pouring hot water each time. Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a teapot in which tea leaves are less likely to be clogged and tea can be continuously dispensed without the above-mentioned troublesome thoughts.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by using a teapot, which is characterized in that a tea leaf strainer having a large number of small holes bulging inward from the inner surface of the container is formed to be considerably longer than the conventional one. did. Preferably, the container is horizontally long at an opening in the range of 60 to 90 degrees from the center of the container.

[0005]

[Embodiment of device]

 A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of its appearance. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is a volumetric product such as ceramics having a lid 2 with a knob on its upper surface, and a gripping portion 3 and a spout 4 are projectingly provided like the conventional one. However, the cross-sectional area of the root 4a of the spout 4 is considerably larger than that of the conventional one (especially larger in the lateral direction).

FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view taken along a plane passing through the grip portion 3 (line AA in FIG. 1), and FIG. 3 is taken along a plane passing through the spout 4 (line BB in FIG. 2). The tea leaf strainer portion 5 is shown in a longitudinal sectional view with parts omitted. The tea leaf strainer 5 bulges inward from the inner wall of the container 1, but is about three times as large as the conventional one (shown in phantom in FIG. 2). As a result, the number of small holes 6 also increases about three times as compared with the conventional one. In the example shown, it is extended only in the left-right direction, but it may be extended slightly in the up-down direction. Preferably, it is horizontally long at an opening degree α in the range of 60 to 90 degrees from the center of the container 1 (see FIG. 4).

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, the tea leaf strainer 5 of the present invention is about 3 times as large as the conventional one, so the number of small holes 6 is also about 3 times, and the tea leaves are inevitably blocked. The effect is that it is less likely to be disturbed, and when you pour tea, it will not become clogged and you will not be able to pour it, and you can continue to use it comfortably.
