Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to tableware.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 It is said that Japan is aging at the fastest speed in the world. Against this background, considering that the desire to eat in order to live will last a lifetime, it will be asked what kind of tableware should be easy for the elderly to use. . Even with a healthy body due to aging, anyone can suffer from reduced spine curvature, reduced height, joint movements, posture retention, reduced vision, strength, grip, movement, and appetite. The same is true for people with mild dysfunction. As a characteristic of eating postures of the elderly and those with slight disabilities, the angle between the tabletop food and the line of sight and the angles of movement of the hands and arms approach horizontal. This is even more pronounced when using wheelchairs. In addition, it is conceivable that this can also be applied to a meal operation on a bed.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 Elderly facilities and the like use tableware that is easy to use among the tableware used by healthy people, or are manufactured with awareness of people with physical disabilities, and are more shaped as utensils than containers At present, self-help tableware and nursing tableware are used, and elderly and lightly handicapped people are easy to use, taking into account the aging and deterioration of physical functions associated with lightly functional impairment. There are very few vessels considered from the concept.

[0004] Incidentally, the following is a list of dissatisfaction with the tableware of the elderly and those with slight dysfunction.

[0005] Flat plates: Flat plates are less warped and have less easily shaped plates. There are few things that you can hold in your hand (ceramics are heavy). If you spoon it from the place you put it, it will move and it will be hard to scoop. Few dishes are designed to fit any menu, Japanese, Western, Chinese. I want a dish that can be eaten in a fun atmosphere even with shredded food and paste food. Serving a large lunch plate, that is, a single plate serving all the food is irresistible. I want a plate that matches the purpose.

[0006] About the deep dish: In the menu, there are relatively many juicy foods, but there are few vessels that are conscious of the juice and I want a deep dish that is easy to use. There are few deep dishes that are easy to scoop. People who can't get their hands on dishes and scoop and eat food with just one hand often move their vessels. In addition, a vessel that does not move is useful, not only for people with severe disabilities.

[0007] Regarding square dishes: There are few square dishes in the shape of a rising edge, it is difficult to scoop, and food tends to remain. The inside corner of the square plate is hard to scoop and food is likely to remain. I want a square plate that does not slip easily and does not slip.

[0008] Regarding small bowls: I want small bowls that are small and stable. I want a container that can be used in various ways. There are few small bowls that are easy to use and fun. Since it is used very often, I want several types of small bowls (round and square fun bowls). Deep bowls may not know what is in them, and may not know what food remains. I want something that is easy to hold in my hand. I want something small and stable. The small bowl for self-help tableware is too functional and tasteless. In the small square bowl, food tends to remain on the inner corners, and the washing property is poor.

[0009] About small size: I want a small-sized container for a small amount of potion (I want to provide a variety of tastes little by little because of low food intake).

[0010] In view of the above points, the present invention provides tableware that is easy to use for not only the elderly and those with slight dysfunction but also those with severe dysfunction, that is, physical functions that can occur to anyone due to aging or dysfunction. While compensating for the decline, we will provide tableware that can enjoy the enjoyment of food in consideration of the sense of incompatibility with traditional eating habits that have been cultivated as a method of stretching the back and transporting food from above to the mouth from the top It is intended to do so.

[0011]
