Description

  The present invention relates to a technique devised so that when a chopstick is placed, its tip cannot contact the surface of a table or the like.

  Since ancient times, chopsticks have been indispensable for eating habits and are also a traditional daily necessities. For that reason, you must be careful about hygiene.

However, although it is a chopstick that is used every day, it is apt to be placed on a table, etc., in everyday life, including the tip of the chopsticks, in contact with the surface of the chopsticks. A chopstick rest is prepared so that the tip of the chopstick can be placed.
Recently, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-258714, as a means for floating the tip of a chopstick without using a chopstick rest, a ring-shaped support base is inserted near the center of the chopstick.
These are troublesome by preparing a chopstick rest or inserting a ring-shaped one, and the design is also bad.
The present invention has been made to improve the hygienic aspects of chopsticks.

  As a means to solve these problems, first of all, the tip of the chopsticks will be placed in whatever way, and the shape of the chopsticks will be round chopsticks, square chopsticks, hexagonal chopsticks, and triangular chopsticks. In other words, the tip of the chopsticks (1) is in contact with the surface of the table or the like and is in a floating state.

  As a means for this, the middle portion (2) of the chopsticks is formed thicker than the rear end portion (3) of the chopsticks. As a result, the shape of the chopstick pattern body (5) is slightly tapered from the chopstick middle trunk (2) to the chopstick rear end (3). In other words, as shown in FIG. 1, even when placed unconsciously, the chopstick tip (1) extending from the chopstick middle trunk (2) to the chopstick tip naturally floats away from the table surface (4) and becomes non-contact. It is. Furthermore, a non-slip groove (6) is provided to facilitate removal when food is sandwiched at the forefront of the chopsticks.

  With just a few ideas, while maintaining a good design of chopsticks, it is easy to use, especially because the tip of the chopsticks does not touch the surface of the table, etc., so it is very clean and helps to improve the hygiene of eating habits. Stand. In terms of cost, it can be manufactured almost the same as conventional chopsticks.

  In carrying out the present invention, the best mode is to form the base part of the chopsticks (2) thicker than the rear end part (3) of the chopsticks. Conventional chopsticks are processed in parallel from the chopstick rear end to the chopstick tip, and the chopstick tip (1) placed on the table surface (4) is always attached. However, in the present invention, the shape of the chopstick pattern body (5), as shown in the drawing, is provided with a slight taper from the chopstick middle trunk (2) to the chopstick rear end (3). (1) floats in a non-contact manner from the table surface (4). Furthermore, the tip portion (1) of the chopsticks extending from the chopstick middle trunk portion (2) is used to pinch the food, so that a non-slip groove (6) is provided in the slip stopper.

  It is a perspective view of the square chopsticks of this invention.   It is a perspective view of the round chopsticks of this invention.   It is a perspective view of the conventional chopsticks.
